. t SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1921. Xs S3N Sell Seattle and the Northwest to All America ‘THE P.-I. is starting a campaign to NATIONALIZE NORTHWEST PRODUCTS. No manufacturing, industrial or commer- cial concern here has grown to its full size unless and until it sells its products to America—All America. Seattle has, first and foremost: The most healthful climate twelve months in the year of any city in the world. It has the most pleasant SUMMER MONTHS of any city under the heavens. : We want to sell that climate to 110,000,000 American people. ‘Bring America here to be our SUMMER GUESTS! It will help the American people to get away from the hot and humid summers of the East and the South and the North and get a look at the scenic grandeur of the Puget Sound Country. Once here to spend a summer, Seattle and the Northwest is sold to them fof all time. 4 With the help of the Chamber of Commerce, the Industrial Associations, Railways and the Hotels AND OUR READERS— We should—We will be able to bring hundreds of thousands of people here from the South, the East and the North to spend their summers with us. On your behalf we are going to ask them to come. Seattle, Alaska and the Northwest have the finest fish that any waters of the world produce. We have more than we need to feed ourselves. Let’s feed America with our sea food. We are going to NATIONALIZE this delectable food. Feed America with our salmon and our sea foods. The fertile valleys of the Northwest grow the most LUSCIOUS BERRIES in all the world. They make the finest jams and jellies. From these berries are made the most thirst-quenching and refreshing drinks that man can make or money can buy. Let’s put our berries and berry juices, our jams and our jellies, on the tables of America. These industries are just in their infancy. There are thousands of idle, fertile acres awaiting the hand of the tiller to bring us food and drink— to create labor—to make wealth. These products once tasted by the American consumer—there will be a demand beyond our fondest expec- tations. The Northwest has the most advantageous GRAZING and DAIRY COUNTRY on earth. Why? Because its mild winters and its salubrious climate produce grass that grows fresh and green twelve months in each year. That’s the reason our “cows are contented.” In the North and in the East, during seven or eight months in the year, the cow never tastes a sprig of grass or green food. Four months in the year she is frozen to death. Four months in the year she is burnt up and “fly-blown.” So let’s sell America our milk from “contented cows.” Let’s tell America that our country can produce butter as rich and cheese as good as Holland or Belgium or Switzerland. Let the “contented cow” that grazes the verdant pastures of the Northwest feed young America. Young America will be a happier, healthier and sturdier America than ever before. Due to climatic and soil conditions, WASHINGTON WHEAT has more nourishment and makes better bread than the wheat of any other state in the Union. We can grow enough wheat to feed millions. Let’s make America recognize the superiority,of Washington grown wheat and Washington milled flour. _ The forests of Washington and the Northwest are teeming with the most perfect timber available for use for the present and coming genera- tions. We manufacture shingles that last longer and look better than any other Shingles ever produced. We can “roof” the homes of all \ America, and when the Washington CEDAR covers your home you know no drop of water will ever seep through. It will last as long as your life itself. Our lumber will build the houses of millions and our wooden blocks make as fine roadways as ever a motor car traveled upon.” In the Northwest and Alaska there is sufficient timber to furnish the NEWSPRINT to America for three hundred and nineteen years. All the rest of America has only sufficient timber suitable to the manufacture of newsprint to last, at the present rate of: consumption, less than twenty years. The manufacture of newsprint has meant to Montreal what the automobile business has meant to Detroit; what the furniture business has er to Grand apices iy iage hysne oan ee oe ang peant ©. Los Aseae. With the timber available and the cheapest power on earth, and water transportation to all parts of the globe, Seattle and the Northwest for the next hundreds of years to houl SPRINT industry ofthe world, : peo? yi come should be the center of the From the valleys of Yakima and Wenatchee and Cashmere and throughout the state come the most delicious APPLES AND PEACHES AND APRICOTS AND FRUITS that have ever been plucked from a tree. From Clarke County, on the Columbia River on the Washington side, come the most delicious prunes that grow in America. We need to tell America about these products. We want and must have a greater mae ay Pye ing dpa — deak : On the nner flats grow the largest and finest CABBAGES in America. Our valleys and flats produce the choicest vegetables in the world—and what’s more important—our producing season lasts later in the fall than does the nae in any other vegetable rowing land. Our vegetables should be sold all over America. It is the logical market for them. Thousands of acres of the finest and most fertile vegetable, fruit pms oa lands are yet untouched and untilled. Their superiority once known to the American consumer we will have an unlimited market ‘or them. ’ Seattle’s geographical location makes it the logical distributing center west of Minneapolis and north of San Francisco. Through thi rt— and our port facilities are such as to do credit to a city of twice its size—through this port should pass the products of all the vast Terviiey of Alaska, the Empire of Russia—the Philippine Islands, China and Japan. With one-third the entire world’s population and the consequent de- —, or that population must create, we can get this business if we fight for it—and believe us—Seattle and the Northwest is not going to shirk at fight. Seattle is an economic and select spot for FACTORIES. The port where transcontinental rails meet alongside transoceanic sails. It has the cheapest power in any land. The mildest climate—the most literate population. No slums. Clean and healthy. We will bring people here if we To pares our climate, our resources and our advantages. We will get capital, and capital will build factories, and advertising will sell our products. / The first step in carrying out this campaign to sell Seattle and the Northwest to America—to “NATIONALIZE THE NORTHWEST PROD- UCTS”—starts today. = en es omnis tae ‘ The Post-Intelligencer invites all papers in this city—in Everett, Tacoma, Bellingham, Spokane, and in every town in every county in the State of Washington, to join in this movement.
