PICTURESQUE  TROUT  LAKE -- PROSPEROUS  DAIRY  AND  LUMBER  DISTRICT

     The richness, beauties, and wonderfulness of the famous Trout Lake district, twenty miles north of White Salmon, has been revealed to the editor through a recent visit to that section. A more prosperous section has seldom been seen for on every side was found modern dairy ranches, neat farm houses and a thriving community.
     Fine dairy herds roamed over beautiful green meadows, and hay fields indicating a rich harvest of large crops dotted the country. Here and there the buz of the saws were heard from lumber mills which add to that section. Prosperity was seen on every hand.
     As a summer resort Trout Lake has no rival. The location is ideal, the little town nestled at the foot of Mt. Adams, on the banks of a rushing stream and on the edge of a lake, is the fisherman's paradise and the attraction of Mountain climbers who love to scale the glaciers and dizzy heights of the famous snow peak.
     Trout Lake residents have reasons to be proud of their section, they have a perfect right to boast of the rich resources of that wonderful district.
