Logging Company, was In St. Helens Wednesday closing up the final de tails preparatory to starting work on '.he logging railroad and logging -nmp which will soon bo established. The rond will commence at Looman's crossing, on the St. Helens Lumber Company's line, and follow Milton ireek for a distance of four miles, until the H. B. & A. timber is reached. According to Mr. Holland, work will begin immediately on the lonstruction of the railroad nnd It will take several months to complete the line. The company owns much timber along Milton creek, and 200, 000,000 more is tributary to the line. A more extended account of this en 'erprise will appear In tho next Issue of tlio Mist. , T. J. Flippin, recently appointed supervisor in Read District No. 6, was in St. Helens Monday conferring with Judge Hattan. Mr. Flippin stated that no extensive work would be undertaken at the present time on account of somo of the roads be ing so muddy that It would make It too expensive to haul rock. Tho work now being done Is clearing the brush, etc., from the Felix DeBast road, which leads south from Rain ier. Work will soon be commenced removing the accumulation of drift wood at the bridge near Delena. There is a jam of driftwood there and it causes the stream to overflow Its banks, making it inconvenient for those living in that locality. The county will furnish a donkey engine to pull the driftwood out of the creek and the farmers living in tho vicinity have donated their labor, so the job will not be expensive to the county. Mr. Flippin stated the rond from Rainier o Prescott was In fairly good shape except In "the bottom opposite Prescott. It is very muddy at this place and If somo auto driver wished to go through it would bo advisable to have chains on his wheels.
