Owens and sons have bought the McKibben saw mill plant and will soon begin moving it out on Silk Creek and will in stall it in the Owens timber tract near the site of the mill which burned last season. The new company will be known as the Owens Lumber Co., and they expect to have the mill set up and ready for operation by the the middle of June. Mr. Owens and sons are well known and successful lumber men, having operated a saw mill in the Silk Creek district for many years and the loss of their mill last season was a severe in dustrial loss to the community. The news of the re-establishment of their mill will be very gratify ing to the people of the Silk Creek valley and also to the peo ple of Cottage Grove, the pro duct of the mill being marketed at this place. The Pacific Timber Company has consummated the sale of the Rouse saw mill, alwve London Springs, to Tom Geer, who will operate the plant, commencing at once. Work on Creswell’s new fruit and vegetable cannery com menced Monday. The vats, ta bles and other fixtures will be made at home and will be ready for installation by the time the machinery arrives.

Albany, Or., May 10. The four representatives of a Russian colony in in Saskatchewan, who have been touring Western Ore gon for 10 days, looking for a lo cation for the colony, today closed a deal for 3500 acres of land in Linn county, which is the first tracts they have pur chased. One thousand acres owned by B. J. Hgcker and Owen Beam, of this city were bought and a con tract made for the remainder. They will colonize the tract when they return to Canada. The land practically lies in one body and is situated 12 .miles south of Albany. It is not far from the Willamette river and most of it is improved farm land. The colony, which will occupy this land, was incorporated by articles filed in the county clerk’s office today under the name of Society of Independent Doukho- bors, with a capital stock of $10,000.
