IV (lliu IcJ Vvllld Rock Crasher For Siskiyou Work A rock crusher has been hauled to the Sisklyous, where it will be used In crushing rock for use in the con structlon of the highway t)ver the Siskiyou grade. It is the intention of the state engineer to macadamize the entire Siskiyou grade from that section which is now being paved. The work of paving the road can not possibly be completed before fall, but the machine will save the grade from washing away. Thus a good surface . will be had and the work of paving can be started in the spring without 1 delay. The crusher was hauled from iRledford by auto trucks.

I Southern Pacific Bulletin: Em Jployes should do everything possible to discourage the practice of nnssen- gers carelessly throwing bottles from car windows. This will heln reduce the hazard of employes and others on the right-of-way being struck and Injured. The matter came up at a recent meeting of the Stockton di vision safety meeting, and Superin tendent C. H. Ketcham started the j ball rolling by writing Manager Mob- ley of the Van-Noy Brown News Company, who, as soon as possible, will have labels with the words. "Do not throw from car windows," past ed on the soda bottles.

They are the beet sugar fac tory promoted by the Western Sugar Company, backed by Mormon capital ists, and the Portland-Beaver Cement plant at Gold Hill. Both propositions represent an outlay of over a million dollars. A letter received Monday by W, H. Gore of Medford, from F. S. Bram well, gives the assurance that a 1600,000 factory will be built In the Rogue River Valley in time to han dle the 1916 crop. The Portland-Beaver Cement plant at Gold Hill has issued a call for its superintendents, foremen and em ployes to report for work next Mon day, August 16. The plant, which has been In course of construction for the last eighteen months, Is now 85 per cent completed, and practical ly all of the machinery has been re ceived and Installed. The analysis of rock near Gold Hill shows one of the finest deposits of cement ma terial in the west. The construction of the beet fac tory means the opening up of a new and most profitable opportunity for the farmers of the Ashland district. The cement plant means more money in the lower valley. Add to this a good fruit crop and a general im provement in f'nanclal conditions In the Rogue River Valley and Ash land's prosperity Is bound to Increase as Ashland Is the valley's playground and with the attractions which will be offered next year will reap a good ly harvest from the valley. Ask any garage man, baths pro prietor or theatre man what effect the completion of the paved highway has upon Ashland, and he will tell you that the paved road has made Ashland more accessible to many hundreds of people this summer and has added immensely to the amount of money spent in Ashland. Let everyone pull together to furnish at tractions and provide a welcome for visitors and thousands will come where hundreds come today. There are 25,000 people within a two hours' auto dlutanre of Ashland. Fif teen thousand of these spend at least one day or evening of the week from home. Let us make Ashland their destination one night out of the week. Words of Praise From Tillamook Man Fred C. Baker, editor of the Tilla mook Headlight, was in the city over Sunday night, and says one of the most interesting things that he met with since he left the cheese-producing county of Oregon was the public park, which is a most creditable en terprise and the people of Ashland are to be commended for their public spirit. It is money well spent and will prove of much enjoyment to the citizens and visitors. 'Mr. Baker is a good road booster and is in favor of 'a hard surfaced highway from Port land to the California county line. Of all the towns he has visited he thinks Ashland is conservative as well as progressive. Mr, Baker is accompanied by bis wife and C. T. Clough and wife, who are out for a two weeks' vacation and will visit Crater Lake before returning home. Mr. Baker has been editor of the Tillamook Headlight for eighteen years and has seen tho growth of the dairy industry in Tillamook county from its start, and he Informs us that the dairymen of that county received $650,000 for the famous Tillamook cheese last year. The dairymen retelve $1.50 for 100 pounds of milk, or about 38 cents per pound for butter fat.

All of the fires were discovered In time to prevent their spread, except one which was controlled after a ten hour battle. Evidence of the work of the firebug was found near each blaze.
