Although having property inter
ests in this part of Orogon for the
last thirteen years, A. S. Brooks of
Minneapolis, brother of Dr. D. F.
Brooks of The Bond Co., made his
first trip to Rend last weok. He
spent Thanksgiving day here view-
ing the country, and especially the
timber. R. F. Avorill showed him
The Bend Co.'s sawmill and the
timber adjacent to this town, and
he expressed hirnsolf as much pious
od to find such a fine body of
yellow pine here.
Regarding his trip and the cut
ting of timber, Mr. Brooks said in
an interview:
"This is the first time I have
been on the Pacific Coast, although

La Pine, Crook County, Oregon.;
my brother and I have hnd inter
ests here for a number or years,
and personally I am financially sorry
that we did not become interested
earlier.
"Our interests in the Bond
country are made possible of devel
opment by the entrance of rail com
munication, and we will erect a mill
of at least 100.000 feet daily capa
city within six months if possible.
This capacity will be increased as
the business warrants. The mill
will be located in Bond and all the
business conductod from this place.
The timber to bo cut will be that
of the Scanlon-Gijwon Co. and
Brooks, Roberta & Co."
Mr. Brooks left Friday morning
for Powell River, B. C, to visit the
pulp mill there, of which he is sec-
