Multnomah county's assessment was j
raised 10 per cent on town lots and im-

OAKLAND.
Chief Shipping Point of the Countyfor Poultry and Eggs.
Oakland, unlike a typical agricnlturalcommunity, has practically a steadvrevenue, earned and aid to her merchants every iay ol tlie year, wincli insures a constant circulation ot moncv atthis point, in sharp contrast to theplethora of money in most farming communities dnriog harvest time, and a corresponding dearth of the circnlatingmedium during the rest of the year.Thi3 prosperity which Oakland enjoys isdue Mirectly to the large shipments ofpoultry and eggs from this .'point to tboPortland markets. The country imme-diately back of Oakland is especiallyadapted to poultry-raising- , and immensequantities of chickens, dncss, geeso andturkeys arc constantly being fattened ontheac lands for the tables of tho residentsof tho big city to the north. Tho finestturkeys and geese sold in Portland dor- -
iug the holidays are from the Oaklandpoultry-yard- and Oakland fresh eggsare on sale in Portland throughout thevear.
to tho shipments to Port--
Jaurlf Oakland nlso ships large quantitiesof iKiiiItryand eggs to San Francisco.Tiio importance of these shipments to theprosperity of the town can bo appreciated from the statement that theannual receipts from this source alunoare no less than $300,000. This is n lesson for other communities of (ho northwest to profit from, and it affords a moststriking refutation cf the fallacy of thoclaim that small farmers :uo not prosperous for the one reason that the" opportunities afforded tho more favored classefor attaining prosperity are denied them.For tiio small amount of monjy invested,and with the reasonable amount of effortrequired, there is nothing that will payso well as small farming on Oregon soils,and the success of poultry-raisin- g aroundOakland, fruitgrowing in tho Willamettevalley and diversified farming in all partsof tho state where the holdings of landare not greater than can be worked toadvantage by a singlo family, furnishmore than an ample assurance that thereis a competency in tilling tho rich landsof Oregon lo any industrious family thatwill setilo on them.
Oakland has n population of about 500.In addition to tho shipments of poultryand eggs, largo quantities of fruit, wool,
and stock are stuple articles of export.This part of tho stato is inviting to thesettler for tho reason that tho soil is pio-ductl-
and tho climato is mild through-out tho year, and wish the growth of therest of Oregon this section will continueto mako tho samo rapid doyelopmentthat has been noted hero during tho pastfew yoars. Orogonian.

We are now having a JlittleOregon winter weather.
The health of the people of our littletown and its surroundings is good.Hence the doctor is off on a visit but willsoon return.
On last Monday morning life and stirin all directions could be seen as theyoung tolks were making preparations togo to Scottsburg to attend the NewYear's ball, and by 10 o'clock our littletown seemed almost deserted, as some18 or 20 of our fun-lovin- g youngsters hadleft us for the danco. But notwithstanding, there was a pleasant evening comingto those of U3 who stayed at home, forword and invitations were soon given outthat there would be a candy pulling andsocial party at Mr. Robert Haney's, andby the time the friends had all gatheredin, tno house was lull and the fun commenced, and as all readers of the Plun- -
dealek know what theEe little neigh-borlya-
friendly gatherings are it iauseless for your humble servant to try todescribe one of tbem, for I am unable todo justice to the occasion. But we trustand hope that all may be spared to wit-
ness the retnrn cf many a happy NewYear's eve.
Michael Lieber is again heard from, sotas an Elkton correspondent but as thechampion and vindicator of our countyassessor. May he continue the goodwork. Alka.
