That's another advantage. The fact that one small city determined that a half million dollars was spent in the business places within its Insiders by California visitor in one year helps substantiate these ad- YantaCVS. ! Know N c 1 piled by Grants Pass business men through their chamlwr of commeire say that $500,000 was sjent in that one city last year by California tourists. It is true that Oregon people make use of the fine bridges I and nice pavements leading south and do journey in that. directum frequently. Rut it is also tine that California i people make use of the same routes coming north. And thev! come not by tens but by thousands and tens of thousands': every year spending money as Oregon people do when they, go visiting, and staying during the summer as long as thev. can in the cool green shade of Oregon firs and pines, hating with a horrible hate the thought of returning to the heat ofi f!"nll '" California vallevs. PEACOCK Nut Coal V ' ....
