Is from tbe Bridge on the Chehalem

Mr. Green certainly knows a great
about road construction work.
Tbe type of improvement being
made is known as water bound mac­

surface is slightly loose. The road
has a splendid crown thus insuring
excellent

haa been used by many other eastern
end middle western states.
Tbe water bound macadam as laid
by Mr. Green consists of large, me­
dium and smaller crushed rock

In so that all crevices and holes are
filled. On top of this a finer rock,
known as \ -inch or screening, is
dumped. This is rolled In and other
layers of the same are dumped on
and rolled In until no more of this
will be absorbed^ by the’ chinks in
tbe coarser gravel, thus creating
solid rock bed. Then this is gone
over with a sprinkler and rolled
seme more, thus binding the rock
with water which in effect gives a
macadam tin t». On top of this to
placed another coat of fine

The difference between thto type
o f road construction and that for­

merly put on a layer of large rock,
then a smaller and then a still small­

plying them and thus get a more
solid pack clear to the bottom. Put­

to better advantage than would be
the case If tbe screening* were rolled

_______
_____ and wife arrived
■ ■
here last Saturday from Riverside,
Calif., having driven through from
that place. They ere the pareato of
M. A. Deaton of the People’s Market,
parently worked satisfactorily and
be was just tWo and one half hours
in cleaning up hto 150 dozen
Of corn.
Mr. Butler says that nr cost him
1% cents a dozen to pick and sack
the corn; it also cost him 214 cents
a dozen for freight to Portland; and
he figured that tbe selling expense
not counting hto time was 2 cents
per dozen. Thto last item to based/
on the 150 dozen which he sold and
would be lees for a larger quantity.
The 114 cents for picking would be
entailed even if the corn were sold
locally, so that hto added expense In
marketing iu Portland was only 4c
per dosen and he received 8c per
dozen more for his corn there than
he could havq here at home.
On Sunday the Oregonian pub­
lished a second story about Mr. But­
ler’s marketing enterprise and they
quoted him as saying that he would
be back again next Saturday with
more corn at tbe same price. Mr.
Butler informs tbe Graphic that he
cannot buy corn from other farmers
to sell on the market on account of
tbe law. but that he can take it on
consignment or that they can join
with him in selling there. He is try­
ing to get a larger quantity tor sale,
next Saturday and will probably be
able to cut tbe selling expense in*
this way.
It seems that there has been a
sort o f oombine of dealers on the
market heretofore to bold tl*e price
of some things up. The farmers can
make money selling their corn et 20c
per dozen and It is far better to take
that price than to hold the corn
and not be able to sell at all. There
are lots of people in Portland who
wtll can and dry corn at 20c but who
could not afford to pay 30c for It.
We believe that Mr. Butler la on the
right track and that other farmers
will do well to join with him in thto
proposition.

Mr. Dolph Informs the Graphic that
he will have around 2.000 boxes o f
this fruit thto season. On Wednes­

peaches and there were some splen­
did ones among the lot. Think of
peaches that w ill run 44 to the

Theee are of course extra

on the Portland market. He took in

Dolph finds the marketing of his

the fact that they are ripening faster
than he can handle them to advan­
tage. For this reason he is offering;

orchard after them at a low figure.
