Manager Bedillion of the Bandon
Woolen Mills has just closed up
another big contract with the same
Detroit firm for which he has been
manufacturing goods in the past.
The new contract is sufficiently large
to keep the mill running at full blast
for a year.
The mill is being temporarily
closed down this week, aid will
probably remain closed until after
the Fourth, so that a few repairs can
be made before work begins on the .
new contract.
The output of the Bandon Mil’:-,
is thoroughly up to date, and the
demand for it is increasing all the
time. The Bandon Woolen Mill it

Bandon and is greatly appréciait I

greatly pleased to learn of its con -
tinued pr sperity.
At the request of the Chamber of
Commerce and other public organi
zations of Western Oregon, the gov
ernment has ordered an examination
of the oil prospects of the coast range
of Oregon. This is the same belt
of mountains that contains the great
oil fields of California, which in the
last ten years have enriched that
state over $100.000,000, without
materially affecting the total supply
of oil in the ground. The Coalinga
fields alone produced oil va’ued at
$9,000,000 in 1909. Yet at the same
rate of exhaustion, the field will last
over 200 years, according to the
published estimates of the govern
ment geologist.
While such things in Oregon
must still be considered onlv wild
dreams, since almost nothing is
known of the local prospects; never
theless many people believe that the
coast range of Oregon lias as good
indications of oil as the same range
in California, and we certainly hope
that the geological survey cm find
evidence on which to base a favora
ble report, and thereby encourage
development of this possible addition
to our resources.
The work is in charge of Chester
W. Washburne. of the U S. geolog
ical survey, Washington, D. C. Mr.
Washburne is a former resident of
Oregon and has already made pre
liminary studies in nearly every
county in the state. He will soon
examine this county, a d all persons
knowing of oil seeps, asphaltum, gas,
salt and sulphur water, and related
phenomena, are urged to write a full
description of the occurrence, in
cluding its location, and mail to Mr.
Washburne, whose address is now
