Bandon Business Men Raisa Fund for
Improvement.
Bandon.— The business men of Ban­
don are raising a fund for river and
harbor improvement work, independ­
ent of congress. A lagoon near the
mouth of the Coquille river deflects a
considerable volume of water from
the channel, lessening its scouring ef­
ficiency and causing the formation
from time to time of a sand bar. The
money, of which a considerable
amount has been already subscribed
by public spirited citizens, business
men and mill and ship owners, wil)
be used to build a breakwc‘ ?r across
the lagoon. It is the opinion of engi­
neers in the government service that
this will confine the water tct the main
channel, and keep the sand washed
away.
,
The regular government appropri­
ation of $60,000, which is being ex­
pended off the north jetty, is making
a wonderful improvement in the en­
trance to the river, and no vessels
have been barbound for a period of
nearly a year. A n attempt will be
made to have the Coquille river men­
tioned for a $500.000 appropriation at
the next session of congress.
Continue Forestry Experiments.
Astoria.— Dr. Hawley, the -forestry
department expert, who has been here
for several weeks experimenting with
waste prodnets of the mills and logging
camps, has gone to Everett to conduct
similar investigations, and from there
will go to Vancouver. Later he will
return to Astoria to complete his work
here, ond eventually will eonduet ex­
periments at Portland. The report of
Dr. H aw ley’s work this far has been
sent to the department in Washington
and will be made pnblie by it. After
concluding his labors on this coast, Dr.
Hawley will go to Montana to experi­
ment with the waste produets of the
lareh forests.

Salem.— Cherry growers in Marion
county who are facing 3-cent prices
are contemplating the organization of
an additional canntry association. The
Mutual Canning company, now under
the absolute control off one man, is
declared to have overreached itself in
its efforts to compel the growers to
submit to three-year contract«. In
v:ew of past experiences and the con­
ditions confronting them this year,
the fruit men are talking seriously of
building a new cannery.

willing­
ness to subscri
subscribe $500 toward
erection of a cannery. Growers in
other parts of the county are also
realizing the necessity of concerted
action if they desire to stay in the
fruit business.
"Cherry growers and other small
fruit men.” said Fruit Inspector E. C.
Armstrong, “will lose enough this
year to build a good cannery. I shall
<io everything in my power to assist
tne growers to oiganize an associa­
tion that will remain a mutual organi­
zation, and I believe such a cannery
can be built for less than $10,000.”
It will be impossible to erect a can­
nery this summer, but it is the plan
to start in the fall. The Liberty
growers’ plan is to erect a cannery as
a packing plant this summer, and next
spring enlarge it and add the machin­
ery necessary to take -care o f all the
fruit that may be offered.
The Mutual Canning company is
buying cherries at 3 cents a pound.
The growers refused to sign the three-
year contracts, but there is little hope
of better orices f^om the cannery this
year or next. In California the can­
neries are paying from 6 to 8 cents for
the cherry croo and it is said the fruit
will not compare with the Marion
county product.

Postal Receipts Increase 25 Par Cant
During Year.
Corvallis.— The increase in the post-
office receipts in this town for the fis­
cal year ending June 30 was nearly 25
per cent over the total of the previ­
ous year. D welling houses completed
or begun in the town since January
have added about 9 per cent to the
residences, and it is estimated that the
total increase of dwellings for the year
will be 16 to 20 per cent by December
31. Residence property in the city is
now selling at double the prices it
brought three years ago on an aver­
age, and in some instances for more.
The increase in the number of resi­
dences last year was
per cent, and
the year before 13 per cent.
Alfalfa Msal Mills.
Echo.— J. E. Murphy, of Portland,
this week commenced the erection of
a fireproof building, 32x60, and 18
feet to the eaves, of cement and steel,
to be used for an alfalfa meal mill.
The mill will have a capacity of 25
tons every 24 hours, and will cost,
when completed, $25,000.- Mr. M ur­
phy has leased the Henrietta mills,
and will run them in connection with
his alfalfa meal mill.
