Oregon is credited with leading all other states in this accommodation for travelers. The fountains are all of artis tic design and add to rather than detract from roadside appear ances. All. of the cut stone work has been done by Italian work men, who are said to be skilled in this class of work. In all there are about 30 foun tains.

To Cas&ufo Mineral Springs New Road Opens up the South Santiam Val ley; Springs are Popular With Visitors Caseadla has proves a popular resort this season, due to the completion ot the new Santiam highway that. far. It is located on the south fork of the Santiam some 42 miles from Albany. The highway leading to it la a grav eled road mueh of which is oil ed macadam, making It an excel lent road. The driveway la wide except going over the hill near Foster, but even there the width is ample for passing cars com fortably. The great attraction at Casea dla is the mineral springs. They are heavily saturated with salts and are. much sought after by those desiring; the curative ef fects which the salts give. Two flowing springs, one in consider able - volume, supply plenty ot water for all visitors. Many whocome bottle the stuff and take -It home. Sometimes as they arearmng along they will hear a report like the blowing out of a .tire. It is only the yielding of the cork in the Jug to the accu mulated gas in the container. The -other Sunday we observed a man from near Albany loading up the mineral water to take home with him. He was using fruit Jars, leaving a little space at the top aad sealing the cap on. This he said had proven a very satisfactory way of getting the water home. A person may tie the cork down ot course, if he uses bottles or Jugs. One thing important is to keep the water cool after getting it home. If it gets warm it is terrible stuff to imbibe. Campers at Cascadia find the mineral water fine for making hot cakes with. There is enough bicarbonate ot soda in the water to make- the cakes very light. ' The opening up of the valley through the building ot the road has made Cascadia a much more important place than formerly. The store and hotel are still there of course,' doing a much larger business. The camp ground Is well filled and the picnic of this treated Gasoline Thenew models are out.
