PAVING AND GRADING GREATEST IN ITS HISTORY Hood River, says the Portland Telegram, Is doing a greater amount of street Improvement work than ever In its history. Many blocks are being graded and concrete sidewalks laid. The endeavor of the city au thorities Is receiving the co-operation of property owners, who in some In stances, because of their eagerness to see the work under way, have secured permits similar to those In the case of building construction, and have had the work conducted privately. As an example of this, abutting property owners have had First street paved with concrete. This work Is nearing completion. The owners along Third street have also let the contract for the grading of that street. In order that this thoroughfare, which Is mainly traveled during strawlierry season, may be ready for use by the Isrry farmers, the con tract calls for completion In seven days.
