Silk Creek
A. I). Owens and sons have
bought the McKibben saw mill
plant and will soon begin moving
it out on Silk Creek and will in

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
