JOSEPH N. SUISTE
	A prominent and rising agriculturist of Umatilla county, where he has 
spent most of his life, the man whose name is mentioned above is well known as 
a potent factor in development and progress, while his uprightness and 
capabilities have won him the respect and confidence of all. 
	He was born May 4, 1864, in Vancouver, Clarke county, Washington, to 
Julius A. L. and
 Hermine (Depuis) Suiste, natives of France and Canada, respectively.  When 
thirteen years of age he was brought to this county, where he had resided ever 
since.  He was educated in the Holy Angels College at Vancouver and also at 
home, receiving a fine training from his father, who was in excellent educator.
	Mr. Suiste was married, in Pendleton, on May 4, 1898, to Miss Minnie 
J. Fix, a native of Michigan, whose parents were early pioneers to this state 
and are mentioned in this volume.  To Mr. and Mrs. Suiste have been born one 
child living, Andrew J., and one, Louis H., who is deceased.
	Our subject and wife are members of the Catholic church, where they 
are held in high estimation because of their active interest in the affairs of 
their church and their life of devotion to their faith.  Mr. Suiste owns four 
hundred and eighty acres two miles west from Vinson, where he devotes his 
attention to raising hay, producing many tons each year.
