Description: "This travelog of the state of Washington gives a panoramic view of the capitol at Olympia, the city of Seattle and its wide and picturesque streets and inspiring scenes taken in the timber country. Interesting shots of the lumber industry show the felling of giant timber trees and their course through the mill. 'Carefully explained views of the salmon industry show the modern methods which are used to adjust the habits of the salmon to the mammoth dams in the hydro-electric development. These tend to show the operation of the salmon elevator.' 'Photography is excellent. Highly recommended for geography in elementary grades and for economic geography in junior and senior high school.' Advisory committee"
