MOMTFteAL, O A. -WAD A. a:«73 MMfMa^v THE PUGET SOUND COUNTRY A Few Words About, Us Many Groat AcivantasGs and Mow to Get There. If tin; rccdids n[ pioneer scttlciiu'iit over the entire Aniericaii continent were to be searched, it would be a dillicnit matter to lind any one piece of country that has attracted more univerMal and lasting attention t.'ian that portion of the Pacilic Coa-it known as tiu I'uget Sound country. AFany places liave had surprising "booms" and, for tiie time, have, peiiiaps, possessed more interest U>y intendinjif settlers than all rivals; but in the j^reat majority of cases, the "boom" llattened out in sliort order, and the tide of einijfration turned elsewliere. This caiuu)t be said of the country contijjuous to I'uget Sound. The stream of emigration has tlowed steadily in one direction for years; the advice, "(!o West, young num," has been followed by countless thousands, and f(uind to be good; State after State, and Territory alter Territory have been peopled and tested nearer and nearer to the western sea. There are excellent reasons for this unprecedented western movement, and for this rapid settlement of por- tions of the I'acilic ("oast. \ new land, in order to stand the test id' t ime and continue to lind favour with practical men, nnist possess certain necessaries and sullicient re- sources within itself tosu|ii)ort a population in proportion to its extent; and w hen w<' see new ariivals — business and professioinil men, farmers, artisans, labourers, etc. Hock- ing to a given point at the rate of several thousand a week, as has been the ride in the I'uget Sound ciiuntiy foi- some time, it is ipiite certain that the olijective point, whatever it may be, possesses all the requisites for a prospenuis future. The I'acilic Coast is a lit-hly endowed region by Xature, with a climate where extremes are unknown, and a variety and wealth of resources which but re((uire proper development to make it oiu' of the most prominent and valuable sections of the continent; and of all of it there is none better than what is kmtwn as Western Washington, lying west n( the Cascade Mountains, and extending to the I'acitic, the very choicest country being that bordering ui)on I'uget Sound. The vari(tus counties comprising this territory, known as the I'uget Sotuid country, all possess good limber, miiu-rals, and lmi)ortant lisherias, and all have iterfeet coinnniidcation with the racilic and common highways PUGET SOUND. to and I'roiM Ui(! Kasi. 'I'Ik- soil and cliiiiatt vary, but not iiiun' tliiui niiglit be expected in such uu extensive tract; but each possesses certain advantages tiiat promise well for the future. The Sound consists of a s.'ri» s of niagnili- cent water-ways, with a shore line of fully 1,800 miles, forming one of Nature's grandest liarbuurs, where tlie shipping of the world might lind secure anchorage. The resources of this territory are vast and enduring, and capable of sustaining an immense i)opuhUion. Chiei' among them are timber, coal, iron, lime, building stone, marlile, and copper. In addition to these are agricultural IH'oducts, wheat, oats, hay. and potatoes, yielding great crops; vegetables in splendid variety, and every fruit grown in a temi)erate climate, such as apples, pears, peaches, phims, cherries, and small fruits, all of superior (juality. Hops yield remarkably well, and are a very important product, the output for the past year being worth considerably over .'?1.0(XMioO. .sheep do well and pay got)d returns, and dairy products are also important and profitable. It is the tiuest of countries for mixed farming. Already tliis country has large shipphig interests, and the future possibilities are beyond estimate. (Jranted a land naturally richly productive, with immense resources in timber, minerals, etc., as mentioned above, with excel- lent i)astnragc, mild and healthy clinuite, and matchless harbours, and who can ask for more, or say to what promi- nence such a region may not attain? Xor are these all. It must be remembered that the lisheries of this country are colossal in their importance. \'aluable food lish — salmon, sturgeon, herring, smelt, etc.— literally teem in the several rivers, and cod, halibut, and many other us'- ful varieties are found in iilenty in salt water. In fact, the rivers of tiie coast, and the sea itself, from the Sound to the far north, contain lish in incalculable number and variety, many of them l>eing found only in the I'acitic. The value of the mining interests can hardly be esti- mated, and the same remark will a]iply to the lumbering operations. In one year the output of coal has exceeded ■'?t,rj(Hi,w)0, and in the same time the sawmills of I'uget Sound cut lol.iis.").! to feet of rough lumber, I'io.'.tKj.ssT lath, l,lS'.i.2ti<» pickets, hl(),S33 wool-shits and staves, and shiiiped l,ls7.;{'.M lineal feet of piles, the whole being valued in therougli at .'?."),:i'.»T,".Hll.

Steel works and rolling mills will soon be I'stablisheil to sujjply the demand for steel and steel i)lateson the I'acilic Coast. imnortant tliough many of the industries are at iiresent, they are yet merelv inl'.yil enterprises to what are sureb. to conu>.
