Stockyards at Iluincs.
Prospects for new and enlarged
stockyards at Haines are quite favor
able. B. Campbell, assistant traffic
manager of the O. R. ft N.' was here
Wednesday looking over the ground
and making Investigations as to the re
quirements In connection therewith. It
Is not definitely known at this time
Just what arrangements have been
made, but It Is supposed that work on
the yards will begin shortly. It Is un
derstood' that the new structure will be
what Ib termed a four-car yard, the
capacity of which will be four times
that of the present yards. The In
creasing shipments of livestock from
this place demand better arcommoda
lions and It is to the Interest of the
railroad company, as well as the ship
pers, that provisions be made for the
handling of the stock In a more expe
ditious manner. ' ,
