Our country residents have not
visited the county seat In great num
bers for the last week; bad weather
and worse roads is the cause.
Ground bone, Bhell, grit, charcoal
and beef scraps to make Hens Lay,
sold by Cramer Bros.
Street Commissioner Gllftllan has
been kept very busy every day for
the past two weeks. The long storm
made both streets and crossings in
need of repair.
City Engineer Hobson is getting
ready for work; he will have a large
amount of official as well as private
surveying to do In the near future.
In spite of the rain and general
bad weather, crowds of ladles and
gentlemen have been visiting the
Sixth street bridge every day tor m
week or more.
The special committee of three
appointed to receive and act upon
the report of Expert Cummlngs were
in session Wednesday. Mr. Cum
mlngs arrived from Portland Tues
day evening.
Every train from the north brings
anxious homeseekers who refused to
wait for the reduced rates. The
rainy weather is not Just what Is
needed to do a land office business
but everybody will be accommo
dated. Verdln & Conger have handsome
ly fitted up an office at 109 North
Sixth street in the building formerly
occupied as a hardware storee by
Corou & Co. The firm will deal
In real estate and timber lands.
The sign work on the new office Is
certainly a handsome piece of
work.
Fruit Inspector Bateham is in re
ceipt of a communication from Bet
ter Fruit to the effect that it will
the near future devote one Issue to
exploiting the fruit of Southern Ore

Jesse Neathammer came la from
Evans Creek Monday with a load of
fat hogs which ho dispose of to the
butchers here. Mr. Neathammer
Intended to make the return trip the
same day but the best be could do
with a good team was to make the
trip one way, 20 miles In the day, on
account of the bad condition of tho
roads. Although the Evans creek
district Is In Jackson county, Grants
Pass Is the trading point and many
hundreds of dollars are annually
brought to this city from that sec
tion and It Is probable that this
amount would be greatly Increased
were the roads In fairly good condi
tion during the winter. mere is
one stretch between the Jones creek
bridge and Dry Diggings where the
bed of the wagon fairly drags on the
thick mud.
