THE NEW
YARD
Will Take a thousand Cars
Gravel and Dirt.
of
The yard this side of the depot is
covered with stakes, set for the new
grade, indicating something of the
large amount of dirt it will take to
grade the newly ariangd yard, reach
ing east to the oil tank. It is estimated
it will require from 800 to 1.000 car
loads, about twenty-five train loads for
the big job, causing a transformation,
when the yard is completed. The pres
ent stakes, though only cover the sec
tion this side of the old depot. Later
the part south of the depot will also
be nhed and graded. Hence, the new
depot is a small part of the improve
ment that is being made It is all
right, and will particularly be if it has
a cement walk around it, but the great
point is the fact that it is on the side
ot the yard where it belongs, and the
yard will be a fine one.
