FAMOUS FOR HOPS, INDEPEN-
DENCE STANDS SECOND.
Populous and Prosperous Community
Centers in Polk, Together With
Their Chief Products.

Dallas, the county seat of Polk, is
situated near the geographical center
of the county, and is surrounded by
an agricultural territory that for pro-
ductiveness of soil is unrivaled any
where upon the face of the globe,
which is largely responsible for the
founding here Of this magnificent lit
tic city with substantial business and
residential structures, with wide i'm
proved thoroughfares, with miles OF
sewers and a sewage disposal tank,
with gravity water system, with cleo
tric light and power plant, with SOL
id financial institutions and moderr
merchandising establishments, with
mills and factories and their accom-
panying payrolls, and with a citizen
ship that extends the right hand OF
fellowship to the contemplating set
tier from other states. From an edu-
cat;onal, religious and social stand
point Dallas enjoys an enviable repu-
tation. Its schools are on the accred-
tied list Of the University OF Oregon
and other colleges within the state
while there are nine distinct rellg-
ious denominations, some OF which
have a membership Of more than 50l
persons. There are substantial manu-
factories, at the head of which is the
sawmill industry, the daily capacity
of which exceeds 100000, followed by
the Southern Pacific car repair shops
wood working plants, foundry, houl
mill, machine shops, fruit packing
plant, tannery, soda works, creamery
and others of less Importance.
The manufacture of furniture ma.
be mentioned in passing as one en-
terprise that should prove profitable
The most common wood Of medium
cost suited to this purpose is fir, tn
upland soft grain variety preferred
This wood works easily, is durable
and takes stain and polish remark
