ORENCO TREES ARE REALLY CHEAP
Some trees appear cheap, but are really expensive.
Other trees appear expensive, hut are really cheap.
You
cannot buy high-grade, productive land for the same price
'as poor land sells for.
You cannot buy Oak lumber for the same price as Fir
lumber.
It is Quality in Trees that Counts.
W e grow our own trees in our 1200-acre nursery.
Our
land was selected specifically for nursery purposes. It pro­
duces the very choicest type o f trees possible to obtain any­
where, with stalwart tops, strong fibrous roots; in short,
strictly first-class, sound, healthy, fully matured trees.
There are none better grown, and they are Really Cheap;
because they are such as will “ Make Good.”
If you need any N. Y. Pippin, Spitzenberg. Winesap,
Rome Beauty, McIntosh Red, Jonathan or any other com­
mercial or home variety, just drop us a line stating your re­
quirements.
We also have some o f the best peach trees in Early
Crawford, Elberta, Foster, Fitzgerald, Gillingham and other
good varieties we have eyer grown.
If you want Peach Trees, you can’t get better.
Don’ t Delay Ordering Too Long.

Bridge Opened at Celilo
The new steel bridge o f the
Oregon Trunk railway, which
crosses the Columbia river at Ce­
lilo Falls, was opened and is in
regular use for through trains
between Portland and all Central
Oregon points on that railway.
It eliminates the ferry service at
Fallbridge, which has been used
for the transportation o f materi­
al and equipment during the con­
struction, as well as the transfer
o f passengers and freight since
the opening o f the line in March,
1911.
Leaving the main line o f the
Spokane, Portland & Seattle Rail­
way at Fallbridge on a Wye in
both directions, the bridge cross­
es directly over the Celilo falls
o f the Columbia river.
The eight main truss spans ag­
gregate 1925 feet and 4 inches
in length, in addition to which
there are 22 girder spans, mak­
ing the total length 4197 feet, or
about four-fifths o f a mile. The
longest, o f cantilever type, 316
feet and 8 inches, crosses the
main channel o f the river. The
draw span, 246 feet and 6 inch­
es, crosses the government lock
canal.
The 29 piers and 3 abutments
are constructed of reinforced
concrete and granite. A remark­
able feature o f the bridge is its
location, where the falls have j
cut channels through the rock al­
lowing the piers to rest on solid
rock foundations, which are dry
in the low water period of about
nine months per year. The south
end o f the bridge is 100 feet
above low water mark and 50
feet above ordinary high water.
The erection of the steel struct­
ure began May 11, 1911, and was
finished January 4, 1912. No life
was lost during its construction.
