tell you something in general way oil
this greatest Valley in the West
Oregon is vast undeveloped empire.
Rich in its mines and timber, richer
still in its fields of grain and frult-laden
orchards, it is land of opportunity for
those of intelligent energy and large am
bition.
The beautiful Willamette Valley, ex-
tending from Creswell l35 miles north
to Portland is everywhere conceded
in histories, Biographies, or III the gen
eral opinion of men who know-to be
the richest and most fertile of any OF the
valleys of the state. As to its future
Mr.. G. NJ. Keys in the August Worlds
Work" says, The Willamette Valley
seems destined by nature to be VERT
able warehouse of solid wealth-not Of
timber that can be cut off, nor of mines
that can be emptied, but of products of

A man who studies carefully the whole
Northwest might well conclude that
this valley is to play very large part
in the ultimate solution of the cost of
living problem. For it is not, like va

Spokane Valley, an emporium of speci'

Won about Mr. Newell. The secret OF
The difference between 800 and 500
net per acre lies in the application OF
those scientific methods which are the
nroducts of the mind and not OF the
soil IT is an unconverted fact that the
greater portion of the profit in this In
dnstrv is the direct result OF intelligent
scientific work. 1t was with that truth
in mind that The A. G. Bohrnstedt

had secured one whose reputation was

director of the Bohrnstedt Company,
"If Won were to place seventy of the
hest horticulturists of the Northwest

gressive West and at least it was my
experience, you will find him spoken OF
in only the highest of terms both as a
man and as a hortculturist. We con-
slider that in Mr.. Newell's ability and
experience we have one of our greatest
assets
Mr.. Newell, after some consideration,
accepted the cUmpany's proposition with
this stipulation-tha he should not be
restricted rs to the necessary money to
make what he considered first class or
cbarls. He said he was anxious to dem.
onstrate what Oregon could do in fruit
raising, and if The Bohrnstedt Company
would put upon him no financial or 9TH
er handicap he would undertake the
work, altho it required the sacrifice Of
his time from his own large orchards at

studied all the orchard districts of the

While on the cliff among the pines
The raven seeks her nest;

A time Of rest and food.
The cows come slowly down the lane
And sigh in calm content,
Their rounded sides, replete with

In curves of plenty bent.
Their udders full of foamy milk,
lnsistent to escape,
While noisily, close in their wake,
With mouth and eyes agape,
And 'Emake belief" at driving them,
In all his impish JOY,
Comes one who makes the scene COM

The smoke Of kitchen fire,
While to their coops the mother hens
With cheeping broods retire;
The calves are lowing in the pen,
The lambs are seen at play,
While from the stack-yard, close at

Comes fragrant scent Of hay;
And country damsels, pail in hand,
Stand waiting at the gate,
The coming of their milchy charge,
In sweet coquettish state.
Long grow the shadows-longer still,
The sun is nearly gone,
And now behind the mountain tops,
Which glow as in the dawn,
He drops-the god of day is set
The dew is falling fast,
The shadows darken into night

And Night, with sable brooding wing,
Shuts from the yearning sight
The scenes of plenty, love and peace,
Till morning brings the light.
