And the modern equipments in
railroading are responsible for this.
Nowadays farm produce of this na

tific and expensive refrigerator cars
that inventive genius is capable of
manufacturing, and it arrives at its
destination in nearly as excellent
condition as when llrst prepared, for
its long journey.
"Strawberries from Hood River

frigerator cars, every endeavor hav
ing been made on the part of the
railroads and express companies to
favor the shippers. These care are
equipped with every facility to pre
vent their contents from being dam
aged in the least and none of the
elegant pullmans which pass
through Salem ride so easy as they.
They are made especially for the Pa
cific coast traffic and have fully
proved their worth. They went
through on fast express time and
the fruit which they transported
was sold for top prices. Such is tho
progress made for carrying the
3iuall and perishable fruit of this
part of the American continent.

Marshficld, Oregon.
SEND A DELEGATE.
THE TIMES is in receipt of a tele
gram from Mr. E. Hofer, presi
dent of the Willamette Development
League. That body will holds its
annual convention in Cottage Grove,
Oregon, on June 20. Mr. Hofer re
quests that tho commercial bodies on
Coos Bay send delegates to the con
vention. Practically every commer
cial body in the State of Oregon will
be represented at tho one day ses
sion, and Coos Bay should make an
equal showing with the rest. Gath-'
erlngs such as these are of vital im
portance to the upbuilding of tho
different communities in the State.
Men meet with a common purpose
and a spirit of co-operation is evoked
that will result in an incalculable
amount of future good to the differ
ent communities. There is, however,
a double reason why Coos Bay should
be represented at this convention.
The Cottage Grove Commercial Club
is making a hard campaign to secure
an extension of the proposed Coos
Bay-Roseburg eleciric line. It is
the desire to extend the line from
Roseburg via Cottage Grove to
Portland. Assuming that tho Rose-burg-Coos
Bay lino and the Portland
extension become a reality Coos Bay
will be benefited immeasurably. A
direct connection with Portland
COOS BAY POTATOES.
THE famous spud of Coos Bay may
soon be utilized In channels
where it will not only benefit the
farmer in a financial way, but glvo
added prestige to the Coos Bay coun
try. The latest use to which the po
tato has been put is in the making of
lead pencils. It is well known that
for some time there has been appre
hension regarding the decreasing sup
ply of cedar and other wood neces
sary In the manufacture of pencils.
It is also known that the cedar wood
used at present In this line is expen
sive and tho quality becoming lim
ited, consequently makers of this Im
portant piece of stationery in the
commercial and educational world
are seeking a new process by which
the pencils can be made without an
Increased expense. In this it is be
lleved the potato will play an Impor
tant part, as In Germany a composi
tion to take the place of cedar in
lead pencils has been discovered, the
main ingredient of which is potatoes,

JLU-STR.VTIVE of tho wonderful
K'notlts accruing toVn country
vlth tht coming of a railroud is tho
fin lowing article taken from tho Oro
gon Diilh Statesman. Coos Bay poo
ph . ill gather an idea of tho rosults
obtainable in a rich agricultural terri
tory such as that embraced In tho
C'oquille vnlloy and tho Coos Bay
ronnti v.
It is Interesting to roviow tho pro
fi's made in tho transportation of
Broen fruit from tho Pacific coast
States to tho great ninrkots of tho
eastern sldo of tho western continent.
Not so very many years ago it scorned
an impossibility to oxport tho small
and easily porishnblo fruit from Ore
gon, California, and Washington ow
ing to tho long haul causing t,ho fruit
vention, which has finally been per
fected and the new. kind of pencils
are being producd in large quantities
preparatory to being placed on the
market.
The United States consul In one of
tho German cities speaks of the new
pencil, in a report to this govern
ment, In the following terms:
"I have seen and used some of
these pencils, which, while slightly
heavier, are tho same In size, form
and appearance as those at present in
use, admit of sharpening a little more
easily and can be produced at a very
nominal figure. A permanent com
pany was founded In March at Berlin,
acting under patents in fourteen
countries, with a capital of $154,700,
of which $95,200 represents the cost
of tho patents, while $59,500 has
been retained for a working capital.
Of tho working capital, $19,040 will
be used In erecting a factory with six
presses and a daily output of 48,000
pencils. The cost of manufactur, all
expenses Included rent, light, power,
wages, composition, lead, selling
cost, etc. is estimated at $0.00928.
A second quality pencil will be made
whoso cost will be only $0.00595.
At tho estimated production of
4S;000 pencils a day, three hundred
working days a year, tho yearly pro
duction would bo 14,400,000 pencils.
According to recent statistics tho ox
port from Germany to foreign coun
tries equaled 15,100 tons, with tho
total number of pencils at 3,033,-200,000.
