j Horticulture nt Flagstaff. One of
tlje best projects which Coos Bay has
onjoyed for some time is now being
installed in tho way of a horticul
ture establishment up Isthmus In
let, C. Kundson, recently from Hood
Itlver, has purchased property In
Flagstaff and is now engaged in
building a green house. It is his
intention to raise flowers of all kinds
and eventually to build more hot
houses and go. Into tho green stuffs
market if tho domand is sufficiently
largo. Ho will also embark' In tho
general nursery business. Flagstaff
Is peculiarly adapted to tho needs of
Mr. Kundson's business. It is well
known that tho different sections of
Coos Bay havo individual climatic
conditions, tho degree of sovpro or
mild weather depending on tho pro
tection of tho hills nnd tho distanco
from tho ocean. Flagstaff Is situat
ed somo distanco up Isthmus Inlet
and lays on a sort of plajau which
Is protected on tho north, west' and
south sides by tho hills, thus afford
ing It protection, from tho ocean
winds and at tho same time allowing
it its full quantum of sunshlno.
Property Owners Taking Active
Steps For Important Im
provement. Front street property owners gen
erally are beginning to realize tho
pressing need of a substanlal pave
ment on tho city's main business
thordughfarc. In fact It may bo
stated that the paving question has
gone past the realization period. So
strong has tho sentiment In favor of
paving become that it ha3 crystnllzed
Into a movement and now several of
the moro progressive property hold
ers have pledged themselves to stand
the expense of laying pavement In
front of their properties. The pave
ment described in tho Times of re
cent date is looked upon with tho
most favor by the property owners.
There are two reasons for this. First
its wearing qualities; second, tho
fact that the entire pavomont can bo
laid without going outside the local
market. This pavement consists first
of a 5 to 7 inch layer of concrete.
Portland has a six Inch layer on her
streets. A sand cushion, one inch,
deep, rests upon tho concrete on
which Is placed wooden blocks 4x8x
4". inches high. After the bjocka
are laid they are treated with a
coating of boiling asphaltum which,
not only makes the pavement water
proof but allowh for expansion and
contraction as well. Masters & Mc
Laln estimate that this pavement can
bo laid complete with curbs and
catch basins for 35c a square foot or
about $7 a lineal foot.
Appended is the body of tho Eddy
act which is conceded to bo ono of the
best measures ever enacted for tho
purposes of raising funds for proper
ty improvements. Tho long tlmo
payments which It allows on work of.
this character, ten annual Install
ments, and tho thorough manner la
which It protects tho property owner
havo placed It In high favor in tho
cities of Oregon whore It has been
adopted.
Tho Eddy Act.
Whenever In any Incorporated city
or town within this state the common
council, board of trustees, or other
competent authority of such city or
town, shall have proceeded to im
