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-

Plant Sails.
Tho M. 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:

, 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.
