OYSTER SHELLS AND PAVEMENT THE LARGE NUMBER of oyster shells thrown into the fill which thedredgehas been making In North Marshfleld lias astonished all who have seen them. Shellsbythe ton! Shells by the car load and shells by the ncre. Whore have all the oysters gone who made these .shells and deposited them In a layer ten ,feet deep In the bay Is a question, gome say a great fire burnt over the en tire region many years ago and killed all the oysters. Some say the freshening of the waters caused by tho ocean building a new beach and the rivers and sloughs sending down their waters into the Inner bay kill ed them. Some-have declared that the escapQ of pl from the vast reser voirs under the bay had fatal results on the succulent bivalve. It may nover be known whether the one causo or the other Is correct, but the fact that there were oysters In the bay as thick as leaves In Valambro sla Is proven to the most unbelieving Missourlan, Something ought to be done with those shells, if they aro good for any thing. The oysters being dead do not need them any more and the people ot Coos Bay are joint heirs of them whatever their appraised valuo. Now It has been customary for the people of Coos Bay to import sand rock from tho shore or else where to make. their roads and streets good. This sandrock Is strictly no good and the moment the rainy season starts It Is all ground to powder and the streets are worBe than a frog tfond. Here the dredge piles up hundreds of tons of oyster shells and It Jias not, appar6ntly, oc curred to the people who believe In good roads that the county road be tweon hero and North Bend, which Is impassable part of the year, might be supplied with tho very best kind of pavement at nominal cost. Some streets which are not ready for as phalt might also be paved with sholls. Anybody who has ever been In Baltlmoro where tho eastern oys ter is produced, will remember tho fine roads just outsldo of tho city which owe their excellence to the oyster shells which tho authorities uso to supply a hard surface. Thoy are better than gravel and very en during. Ono of tho best materials in tho world for making a hard sur faco for a country road exists In al most unlimited quantities In the bay. Let It be understood, however, that pavement Is not the only use to which theso shells could bo put. They have ovon a greater valuo. Of course every farmer knows that they are made of Hnie and thjjt, when ground, thoy become' a superb fertil izer and will sweeten tho " sourest soil. But the restaurant men of IJew York, Baltlinoro and Boston knqw that their oystjor shells aro saleabjo. Thoy aro purchased every day by rnon who go with wagons from door to door and take thorn to tho lime kiln of tho owners of the wagons where .they are, burned Into tho vory best quality of lime. The lime thus obtained Is far bettor than tho ordinnry building lime. It sup plies n demand which Is made by tho tannors of tho finest leather. It is employed by thoin In tho solution which Is placed In the vats whero the hides nro trcntod. It brings a much better prico than ordinary building lime and Is regarded as the most profitable bl-product of tho oyster trade. It Is ovldont theroforo that tho people of the Bay aro losing op portunities which the dredge Is un- 3.eamsh.ps Sail For Portland Ana1 San Francisco Tojiay. The Alliance sailed lato today for Portland with one of the largest pas senger lists, she has had outgoing for sometime.

F, Plant sailed about 2 o'clock this, morning for San Fran cisco with a large cargo of freight and a. good passenger list. She was delayed In getting out by having to wait at North Bend for some of tho freight. In her cargo were: 1,000 barrels of cement, 4Q0 tons of coal, considerable butter and cheese and other produce, Among those who sailed on the Plant were the following: H. W. Painter, ,D.

' wittingly throwing at their feet. , While wo are discussing good roads and proposing an automobile road between hero and Roseburg, we might also, Incidentally take up tho matter of good roads at all seasons between Marshflold and North Bend. Indeed, the Commercial Club would do a great work If It would suggest and urge tho use of tho oyster shell road bed between the two cities of tho bay. An easy road between Marshflold and North Bend Is In great demand and it would bo a splendid Idea for tho cities to , put their own house in order just before thoy start out on tho most commend able project of building an auto mobile; roadjo the outside, Tho stretch, uptwenvtho J.wo cities would bo a very good .beginning for tho uuiuwuuiia Tgau.
