In our g rea t national em ergency
every man should consider how

The higher the ptteee fo r grain, the
m ore certain is the f coder o f a profit
in putting w eigh t on im m ature stock.
From one end o f the country to the

Hundreds o f

H is survey starts from the end o f
.allow s the course a f the Coquille riv -
.4 fo r a trifle m ore.th an tw o m iles.
Surveyed on a lin e fo llo w in g closely
the banks o f the riv e r the road makes
long sw eeping curves w ith the w ater
on bne side and the m assive trees o f
one o f the fin est fo rests on the Pacific
coast on the other, m aking one o f the
most scenic roads to be found in the
country.
M r. Germond has planned a road
which w ill be inexpensive in construc
tion considering the nature o f the
country through which the thorough
fa re is built, one which w ill cost but
little fo r upkeep and which can be
traveled a t a ll tim es o f the year a t a
grade o f less than tw o per cent fo r
the en tire distance. The route is con
sidered rem arkable fo r this one fe a
ture, as previou sly the road has reach
ed as high as tw en ty-five per cent,
w hile only a s lig h t deviation from the
present course brings It to grounds
over which a vehicle can tra vel w ith
practically no noticeable difference in
the grade o f the bed. On one stretch
about 1200 fe e t in length there is ab
solutely no change in levels, although
the surrounding country is very
rough. The road winds a good deal,
but on curves easily negotiated and
which adds rath er than detracts from
the beauty o f the highw ay.
The road is to be planked fo r the
entire tw o m iles according to present
p i.» ., and although no etsim ate has
been announced or prepared in any
w ay it is the b e lie f that the cost w ill
be between tw elve and fifteen thous
and dollars fo r the en tire im prove
ment. I t is very probable th at the
county court w ill pass an order a t its
next session authorising a contract
fo r the w ork and that grad in g w ill be
begun w ithin a fe w weeks.
