No news that has been received
by the people of Oregon during the
last twenty-four months is so i'm
portant as the announcement that
the trans-continental railroads will
make a rate, beginning March 1st and
continuing until April 30th, from
Kansas City, Omaha, st. Paul and
Minneapolis, Winnipeg and other
similarly situated towns, to all main
line railroad points in Oregon, for
s25.
The people of no state in the
Union have profited more by these
one way tickets than have those of
Oregon during the past four years.
The rate from Chicago is S33., from
st. Louis $50. so, with a proportion
ate low fare from all points in the
United States. This should add
many thousands of actual settlers
to the population of Oregon. These
are one way tickets, and if travellers
desire to return to their former
homes in the old eastern states they
will have to pay full fare.
Every Commercial Club and ad-
vertising bureau in the state as well
as every real estate firm, should be-
gin Immediately to advertise these
rates. Every citizen of Oregon
should write personal letters to old
friends and acquaintances remind
ing them that the rate is good to
their town. But the ticket must
be bought to the point of destination
it's just as cheap to the most dis
tant Oregon point as to one just
over the border of the state.

The egg crop was equal in value
to the cotton and cotton seed crop
combined and about the same as the
hay, or the wheat crop.
OF course the cotton crop is grown
in the South only, while the egg pro-

of our country; still it will be news
to many that the money worth of
this usually neglected source OF
wealth is so large.
