His diminutive schooner Alpha could not carry very much lumber and she never strayed far from the Pacific Coast; but her successors have gradually widened the field of operations, aad Oregon- built craft are to day carrying Ore gon lumber to China, JapaD, Africa, Australia and South America. The Oregon and Washington schooner with a capacity of 600,000 to 700,- 000 feet of lumber, launched ten or a dozen years ago, was a monster in size compared with its predeces sors, but it is small compared with the craft that have entered the water within the past three years. The 2,000,000-foot of lumbor car rier of home construction is already here. It has reached this size by such easy stages and has so quietly worked the old type ol lumber droghers out of business that it is difficult to place a limit on its size or utility in the future. 1903 Qoos Q ounty A cademy 1904 This school, which has been in successful operation during eight months of the past school year, will open its Second Annnal Session Monday, October 5, and continue for Eight Months.
