It Salem, Oregon, March 24 — After making a reconnaissance survey of Coos county, Deputy Highway Engi neer Cantine has recommended a ten tative plan of road improvement to the county court The routes he ad vised are as follows: From the Cur ry line to Bandon; Bandon to Co quille or a short distance west of Coquille; from there to Coos Bay; a road north from the Bay to the Douglas county line via Tennille; one or two ferries from North Bend to Kentuck inlet and North Inlet, completion of the road from Glasglow to connect with Templeton highway in discussing the eventual highway between Coos county and the inter ior he recommended that no road should be defined until it was as certained what Douglas county will do. The Myrtle Point road to Rose burg, he said, was preferable to the Coos Bay wagon road, and thought eventually the routing would go by way of the Umpqua river. He also recommended that no road OREGON AND WASHINGTON should be hard surfaced until after I l MBER PIUHH CHON fills have settled two years at least Charles Hall, president of the Coos Oregon l’ses 1I»M and Washington County Good Roads association, has 17 1-2 per cent of Total Board indorsed the recommendations of the Feet Production. roads to be improved.

W Morton, dean of the new school ot commerce of the University of Ore gon. A farm letterhead should carry the name of the farm, the name oi tlie owner, the location of the farm and perhaps a small picture of somt feature of the place, says Dean Mor ton, who regards the farmer as a business man with a substantial In vestment upon which he should maki every effort to pay Interest. I "It gives a farmer a certain bust ' new standing if he has a neat letter head of good stock, and it improve tho value of his farm to have t name and something of an individu ality,” he said. "There is some Ini tial expense in having a picture takei and a cut uiade, but the publishei of the nearest country newspaper will attend to the details and after ward will do tlie printing reasonably “If the farmer raises high class animals, his letterhead may contain a picture of a prize animal with iti record: Or if he lias a stock farm, s picture of a bunch of stock; or if h< has the best house or barn in tin neighborhood, a picture of that; or » picture of a grove or a stream ii usually effective on stationery.

Where Work Is Done The Air Shculd Be Pure Anyone in charge of workers will testify as to the close relation la-tween ventilation and efficiency. Fresh air is necessary to licst endeavor. G-E Exhaust Fans draw the pure air of outdoors into a building and expel the dead and germ laden atmosphere. They increase efficiency in the large factorv, the small shop or the home kitchen. Wherever human lungs are vitiating the air or odors tainting it, these air renewer* are needed. The cost is slight, the service great and welcome the year rouad. Electric Supply Station .1, T.

Thia is some- feet. Oregon produces annually approxi mately 1,610,000,000 board feet of logs, but consumes over two billion or 27 1-2 per cent in excess of her log production. She draws heavily on Washington for this excess. On the other hand Oregon produc es approximately three and one-third million linear feet, but consumes only about one-half a million feet. The railroads of Oregon consume over 18,000 hewn ties and the mines 22,000. Oregon also consumes 66,- 000 linear feet of round mine mater ial. Oregon produces over two billion feet of lumber, approximately 160 million lath, and 275 1-2 million ihingles. Of this quantity, she con- mmes niMirly 23 million lath and iver 116 million shingles. Of the iinount of lumber produced. Oregon mnsumes 19.8 per cent or 411 mil don board feet, over half of which » used for building purposes. Nearly half of the building material, of the lath and of the Bhingles, is used In Multnomah and Clackamas counties. Washington Production The state of Washington consumes annually over 3,300,000 cords of fuel wood. Reduced to board measure, this amounts to approximately 1.- 672,000,000 board feet. The state produces appt oxlinately 5 1-2 billion board feet of logs annually, but con sumes only a little over 1 12 billion board feet. The balance is sent to Oregon for manufacture into lutnber Washington produces ap- products. proximately 8 1-3 million linear feet of poles and piling, and consumes about six million linear feet. The railroads of Washington con sume over 675,ooo hewn ties, and the mine» of the state consume 33,500 hewn ties. The state also consumes over ten million linear feet of round mine material. produces annually Washington more than 4 1-2 billion feet of lum her, nearly half a billion pieces of lath, and over 8 1-2 billion shingles Of thin quantity, she consumes only 2 1-2 per cent of the shingles and 12 1-2 per cent of the lath Of the lumber produced, she consumes 1" and one-half per cent, or over 700 million feet, about two-thirds of which is used for building purposes ?
