RAILROAD BUILDING
ON THE DESCHUTES
H O N O R A B L E M E N T IO N .
An army of men is at work
building railroads up the Deschutes
river to the interior o f the state.
T he winter season is not stopping
the work and during the coming
year trains will lie run into Central
Oregon, making a wide agricultur
al region accessible to farmers.
New railroads, too, are entering
the coast country, while in the
southern end of the state, railroad
builders are pushing north from
Klamath Kails to Natron on the
new Southern Pacific line. Elec
tric projects are active in the W il
lamette valley. On the whole it
looks like the coming year will be
a record one in railroad building
for Oregon.
