Doane the Weyerhauaer Timber Co. has offered to deed to the county a seventeen and one-half acre tract around Silver Falls. J. N. Gearhart, deputy county surveyor, was over there Wednesday surveying the tract, and as soon as the com pany’s men verify the boundaries the deed will be issued.

The timber company has a great deal of fine timber up there which the road, if built, would make market able. t Italian Suicide Tuesday R. A.
