SPRINGFIELD, Or., Aug. 6. As a
result of the announcement of actual
construction. Springfield nnd the
neighboring country are flooded with
investors, and real estate is moving
rapidly. Some good tracts have been
piillcd oH the market, however, to
await developments. About 75 acres
has been sold since the first of the
week in town lots and ad jacent land.
On account of the activity and the
building this summer, the City Coun

daries of the city live blocks nort'i
and three or four east.
The people of Sppringfield are con
fident that a big division point will
be constructed here, for the Natron
road, for the Wcndling branch, and
for the road running to Brownsvile,
und from there to Woodburn. Its lo
cation is the hub of the railroads of
this region.
The new steel bridge across Rogi";
River nt Grants Pass lias been com
pleted and opened for trafflo. Tho
new structure is one of the finest in
Southern Oregon. The contrnctiiif ;
company were at ta loss in niulilnc;
it, owing to the carving uwav ol
piers by freshets during the winter.
Tho bridge was to have boon complct
ed January 1, according to the origi
nal contract, but tho court granted an
extension of time to the builders. The

Not content with already having
opened up several new fields for Ore
gon lumbermen, the national forct
service has now started an investiga
tion of the adaptability of Oregon to
willow glowing. N. F. Macduff, a
supervisor, will start out Saturday on
a trip to Hillsboro where there is ol
ready one willow orchard.
Willow raising for the manufacture
of baskets and other willow ware has
a large standing in the east and mid
dle west, but ns 3'ct none in Oregon.
It is highly profitable in that acreage-;
not used as too poor in soil (iialitr,
can be utilized for the growing of
the willow, it growing in almost any
