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.
