A CONCBETI COLVEKT.
(From Good' (ioadi Magazine, New Tork-1
you cannot get rid of water until the
water has the right slope of a drainage
channel to carry it o(T.
Culverts constructed out of concrete
are believed by nmuy authorities to be
tbe best means of carrying tbe water
from a well built road. -Third,
if you can, do it yourself, or,
If you must, have some oue else do It
for you, but be sure to get good, lite
"photographs of your road before you
start to work upon it, after several
hours' work has been done and again

over your road wltb tbe specific pur
pose of examining it In comparison
with other roads npglected in your

(Jet your newspaper men there. Get
the members of your automobile club

Served Them Right.
Iliggius Went north w as hoeing one
April morning when three rough look
ing men climbed the fence and crossed
the field to him. They bad Just been
shipwrecked, they said, on the brig
Maria. Tbey had lost even their
clothes. Would Iliggius help them?
Iliggius Wentworth looked closely
Into the sailors' faces, for he knew the
ways of men. Then be said:
"Vou, the bowleggcd one, go stand
twenty yards to tbe right, and I'll get
you to help me a minute with tbe seed
in'. You, baldy, there, you stand twen
ty yards to the left."
The two men complied, and the Hlg
glus XX'eutwortb said quietly to the
mail w ho remained:
"XXhat did you say your captain's
name was?"
"XXilllams, Captain Williams," was
the reply.
The old farmer sauntered to tbe man
off to the right.
"What was your captain's name?"
he asked.
"Kverett, sir," Ibc man answered.
Iliggius Wentworth crossed the field
to the third man.
"XX'hat w as your captain's name?"
"The name was Captain Jones."
Iliggius Wentworth leaned on his
hoe and gathered tbe three men about
him.
"A fine lot of sailors yon are," be

three captains: No wonder you were

The Last Straw.
They were driving from the railway
station to the village In which the
blissful honeymoon was to be passed,
and, though she had not as yet brush
ed the confetti out of her hair, tbe
bride was in an agony of nervousness
in case they should be taken for any
thing but a couple well seasoned to tbe
joys and sorrows of matrimony.
Presently the carriage drew back
with a Jerk.
"XX'bat's the matter?" queried the
bridegroom of the coachman.
"Horse thrown a shoe, sir," said th
driver.
The bride clutched her husband's
arm and, with what sounded suspi
ciously like a sob, "Oh, dear George,"
she said, "Is It possible that eren the
very horses know we afe married?"
CULVER
The Junction City of the Deschutes
The Railroad Town of Central Oregon
Has a Remarkable History-A Great Future
PLACED upon (lie market tut one month ago, yet the interest sliown ly lie?
general public, the sate of lots an J especially the railroad develop
ment in and lor Culver, has made it imperative that the toxvnsilc owners, in order
to protect their own interests, must almost immediately advance the price ol lots.
We believe that sullicienl lime has already been allowed those who were anxious
to secure lots at first cost, however, these prices will be held open lor a short lime
longer and il you wish to embrace this opportunity lo secure a choice selection at
introductory prices we urge you lo lose no time.
What is Doing at Culver?
The machinery is on the ground and work bep.un on the well which is to
supply water lor toxvnsite purposes until the development ol the loxvn xvill warrant
the installing of a gravity system of Waterworks.
The new $3,500.00 hotel is ne;irimj completion and shortly xvill be ready
lo oiler the traveling public good, neat, clean service.
Practical tests ol avaiLblc material are Winy made preliminary to the
establishment ol a brick manufacturing plant in Culver.
The Fostollice Department has issued orders lor the old Culver postoflire to
be moved to the new town on the railroad.
As soon as material ran be secured lor the purpose a number ol business
buildings are to be erected in Culver lor the housing ol various industrial enter
prises. That Culver is the railroad loxvn ol the Deschutes Valley is beyond question
now. The new railroad plat ol Culver Junction shows lour tracks through the
town one main line Ixvo long sidings and an industrial track lacing the
warehouse site which are laid out by the railroad company and extend from the
junction point entirely through the toxvnsite.
Besides being the junction of the Hill and Ilarriman main lines Culver will
will also be the junction ol the branch road which will be built lo l'tincville at no
remote period. : We are not prepared to" sl.ile il this road will lie an electric line
built by Prineville capital and maintained by the power company, which owns the
power site west ol Culver in Crooked river, or il I larriman interests will extend
the Deschutes road Irom Culver junction to Prineville, or ytl if L. W, Hill has
design on this splendid route to Prineville. but tint this line will surely be built xve
are reasonably certain.
In the meantime Culver is the distributing point lor Prineville and other
(owns ol less importance and will be the terminus ol lite mai l line lor height and
passenger Irallic lor several months until the bridge is completed over Crooked
river.
