the trail and springs as l remember
them at this time, when ! was z

In August, 1891, 30 years ago, !
rode behind my mother on our good
old bay mare Flossie. We forded
rivers, wound over hills and through
valleys. We passed by Van Eaton's
store in log cabin, where Eaton
vile now stands; passed Karua-
hau's, house made out of split
shakes. The great excitement at
their place being store. 1t was
taken to pieces as far as a store
could be and carried on horseback
over the rugged trail. The next
cabin, where the trail ran by the
front and only door, was Professor
Aliens. He afterward built house
of split shakes that has long been
of interest to tourists.
That was the only habitation
passed except Indian Henry's camp
or home, where we stopped to get
potatoes (Which was a custom not
from necessity, but from policy.

clay and stones, all baking being
done in a Dutch oven. They had
plenty of good things to eat. The
favorite dessert was rollie-pollie
pudding made of mountain buckle
berries rolled in biscuit dough and
boiled in a -four sack three or four
hours in a large kettle Of water. 1t
was eaten with plenty Of thick
cream. The bath house contained a
bathtub made by sinking box with
holes in the bottom in the ground,
with a trough at the top to carry off
the surplus water. There was a
small lake in the swamp, made by
the beavers, with many large and
small beaver houses. My father
would let me sit on top Of the
beaver house to listen to the beavers
working inside. But whenever a
beaver, coming out from his re-
treat, got one look at little MARY"
he would sound warning by a swift
spat of his broad tail on the water

In the summer Mrs. LOngmire could
wait no longer to see these curious
springs, so preparations were made
with provisions enough to last all
the rest of the summer She took
young girl, whose name l do not
remember, to keep her company and
assist. Mr.. Longmire hired several
white man to go along and improve
the trail in the most needed places.
They took two coops of chickens
and cow. When Mrs. Longmire
experienced some of the dismounting
and mounting, unpacking and re-
packing-true to her sex, she never
failed to remind Mr.. Longmire of
the poor business policy to pay for
a piece of work without first in

on a new trail part way to avoid

life if it was not done. And as she

came near meeting her fate-she was

demonstration was enough for Mr..
Longmire. He Immediately changed

in the form of a beautiful road.

On arriving at the springs they
Immediately commenced improve

other necessary buildings. Game of
all kinds was plentiful, especially
deer. They always had fresh meat.
Mountain huckleberries grew in
abundance. With their cow and
chickens they Jared well.
After two years of improvements
at the springs they commenced the
trail to Paradise.
The first white woman to go over
this trail and cross the Nisqually
river just below the glacier and
climb the zig-zag pony trail to the
snow fields of Mt. Rainier were

MARKET DOPE

Accurate, Unbiased Reports

Marketing.
INVESTIGATE COSTS
Consumers Should Know Facts

Supplies.
By HENRY c. WALLACE
Secretary Of Agriculture.

The work of the department Of ag-
riculture in helping the farmer to
solve his marketing problem does
not stop when he has been shown
the best forms Of organizations for
marketing farm products. These mar
keting organizations need informa-
ton with regard to market condi-
lions. In the case of perishable prod
ucts such as fruits and vegetables,
they need daily information from the
principal markets in order to know
how freely to ship so that there may
be an adequate supply evenly dis
tributed instead Of gluts in some
markets and scarcity in others.
Must Know World Conditions.
Information is needed, also, with
ucts, even with regard to such prod
ucts as wheat and wool which are
recognized as commodities having a
market that is worldwide and bring
American farmers into competition
with the farmers who are producing
these products in the southern hemi-
sphere and in Europe and in Asia
II farmers are to act intelligently in
producing and selling these products
it is very important that they have
information with regard to the condi-
lions of production and the supply
available in all of these competing
countries. They need, also, to be kept
informed as to the rate of consump-
ton of the various farm products in
different parts Of the world. The de-
partment of agriculture should fur
nish this information, both as to the
supply and the demand. This infor-
nation is important to farmers not
simply at the time when the prod
ucts are ready for the market but
when the farmers are deciding what
to produce. And it is equally impor-
tant to the consuming public which
needs a continuing supply at reason
able prices.
1t is coming to be recognized that

uct from the farmer to the consum-

was being sent home to recuperate
on Yelm prairie. l had no saddie'
lust blanket and cirslngle. Al
frequent intervals the trail was in
tested with yellow-jackets' nests IN
the decayed logs. Then the gulde
or leader would give the slgha'
"yellowiackets," and each horse
would begin to switch his tail from
side to side as fast as he could
then start on a trot or run down the
trail. Some of the horses wouid
make a half circle through the tim
Der and come into the road beyond
the nest. My old horse preferred
this way and many time were my
limbs bruised on the trees as he
dashed by, but / was always re-
warded by the party telling me what
a wonderful rider l was.
Then there came the call for roads.
The settlers did their part and the
county came to their assistance.
During this period of the settlement
the government had set aside large
area known as the Pacific Coast for
est government reserve, SO the
county had no authority to assist
farther than the limits of the gov
eminent reserve. So again Mr..
Longmire had to take his own money
to make a road from Messlers to
the springs. Roosevelt was an ear
nest advocate of national parks and
did much to promote parks all over
the United States. 1t finally became
a national park in 1899, IS miles
square, known as Rainier National
park.
The Longmire road, rough as 1t
was, long remained the best route.
but in 1903 the mountain found a
tireless friend in Francis w. Cush-
man, representative from this state,
who persuaded congress to authorize
the survey and construct a better
highway. Work was not begun until
1906. The road as now open to
Paradise valley is a monument to
Eugene Ricksacker, United States
assistant engineer.
In the summer of 1910 or 1911 my
uncle, David Longmire, and wife
hired double-seated surrey and
took my grandmother and myself
over the new road to Paradise. 1t
was her first ride to Paradise in
ease and comfort. The tears of
mingled joy and sorrow coursed
down her face nearly all the way
as she bethought herself of all her
husbands hardships and her own
sacrifices of many summers, knowing
she had lived to see the day of work
completed, but he could not share it
with her. She would say time and
again, "Oh! how l wish father could
be here too, that he might know he
has not toiled in vain"
This / ask: This summer when
you would take this trip in ease in
your comfortable automobiles over
magnificent roads, pause in thought
