Meier, of the Meier and Frank Com
| pany and Mr. Dickinson, owner of
the Hotel oregon, all of Portland,
spent several days at the mountain
home of Mr.. Teal, which has become
known throughout the state during
the past few years. especially since
Mr. Teal established a trout hatchery
at his ponds five years ago.
All Enthusiastic.
Every visitor wakes enthusiastic
over the beauties of the scenery and
the fine opportunity for a summer
resort, or for the state to maintain a
hatchery and distributing station from
which many of the mountain streams
of Western Oregon may be supplied
with trout. Mr.. Teal has five ponds
and about 10000 Eastern brook and
rainbow trout. About 20 years ago
Mr.. Teal made pond near his house,
stocked it with carp, and since that
time has built the other ponds
turned the carp into the stream near
his home, and now has the most
beautiful fish farm in the West.
The peculiar feature of Mr.. Teals
development of the fish industry is
that he has never been actuated by
selfish motives, has never sold his fish,
but has hatched and cared for them
for the love of the business. There is
being demand made by men from

Is Polk Pioneer.
Mr., Teal is a pioneer in Polk
county, and few men who are living,
or lave lived, in the county,
been more thoroughly identified with
its development. He was born in
New York, and went to Illinois when
small boy living there until he
came to Oregon, 43 years ago. He
first settled in Dallas, having come to
work for his uncle, William Teal, the
wagon-maker. At that time Dallas
contained about $50 people. Mr..
TeaPs wagon shop was patronized by
the early settlers from every section
of the country and among his GUS
toners were those whose names stand
forth conspicuously in the history of
the countys early development.
From the north part of the county
came William Savage E. c. Keyt,
Henry Myer, Scott and Silas Riggs
Job, Nathan and William Conner,
Mordecai Kennedy, Henry Ellis ]. d.
Kelly, Joshua Mcdaniel, the Holmes
family, T. j. Graves father, Uncle
Sam Burch, David Golf and many
others. From the south such well
known pioneers as David Guthrie,
John Rhoades, George Wells, Sr., the
families Of the SIMPSONS, ,ih iIIewises,
Gilliams, Hastings, Burns, Grants,
and we might continue weaving the
life and work of Mr.. Teal into the
early history of nearly every home lin
the county.
Home Near Falls City,
About 80 years ago Mr.. Teal /
bought a piece of timber land in the
southwest of the present |
site of Falls City During his resi-
dence there he operated a sawmill for
several years, cutting the timber from
his own lands, which when cleared Il
were used for goat pasture. For Is
years he has given much attention to
goat raising, having as many as 400
at one time. Twelve years or more
ago Mr.. Teal and his sons built
many bridges for the county and did
much heavy timber construction
work throughout the county. Mr..
Teal served his county as commits
4ioner from 1900 to 1904, and from
1906 to 1910.
Mrs. Teal, whose native state is
and whose maiden name
vas Ursley Hoffman, has borne her
share of the burden Eofl making a
comfortable home out of the rough
ranch, and is loved by a
vide circle of friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Teal were married in
