ERE SNOWS FALL
CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK.
Ore. (Spl.) Following s, delay caus
ed by an excessive snowfall last win
ter, road construction actvltlea within
Crater Lake national park are being
placed under way on three projects,
with the probability that double
shifts will be necessary to assure com
pletion before the arrival of autumn
snows.
Employing the largest number of
men, the P. L. Crooks Construction
company of Portland Is preparing to
complete the grading of the first six
mlle unit of the new rim road begun
last year but left uncompleted due
to the arrival of heavy snow last Oc
tober. Approximately 30 per cent of
the unit Is unfinished, Including two
excessively heavy rock cuts deep as
80 feet. The company will have 100
laborers at work on two eight-hour
shifts to assure completion this year.
The McNutt & Pyle Construction
company of Eugene has had 50 men
engaged for the past three weeks on
the portion of the rim road leading
from a point near Lost Creek to Kerr
Notch, a distance of four and one-half
miles, necessitating considerable tim
ber clearing, as well as grading. This
project, also begun last year, Is ex
pected to be completed by Septem
ber. The Outhrle Construction com-'
pany of Portland, active on the Dia
mond Lake road within the park, has
60 men at work In completing a 1931
project of eight miles.
In keeping with a government
economy program, no new construc
tion wad begun at Crater Lake this
year, all actvltlea being centered on
1931 projects.
John R. Sargent, resident engineer,
federal bureau of public roads, sta
tion at Crater Lake supervising road
work, also reports the Clarence Young
Construction company of Oakland,
Cal., has completed the first unit
of five and one-half miles of the
Union Creek -Diamond Lake road,
with the probability a new contract
for further work will be let this sum
mer, meaning the possibility of 200
men being employed. Laborers are
now engaged on clearing the next 18
mtle unit of timber as a preparatory
move.-

LONG ABSENT ELK
AGAIN VISIT PARK
CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK,
Ore. (Special) A complete Investi
gation has shown beyond a doubt
that elks have entered the park; for
the summer, the first time In several
seasons, after having been first re
ported a week or so ago. Tracing
the history of the elk, Ranger Charles
Blmson, making a zoological survey
of the park, learned numerous perti
nent facts.
In January of 1916, 15 head of
two-year-old elk were shipped to
Klamath county and for quite a
time were fed at the Pelton ranch
near Fort Klamath. As the years
passed by, the herd gradually grew
and were often seen In the neighbor
hood of Seven-mile creek. Heavy
nows last winter drove over 140
head to a ranch near the park boun
daries, where the animals made re
peated raids on hay stacks, so de
pleting the hay supply of one rancher
he was forced to drive them away
with the exception of 35 which per
sisted in remaining.
It Is thought the elk driven away
were largely killed by cold weather,
resulting in the probable loss of at
least 100 head. Of the 35 which
remained, approximately 25 are be
lieved to have found their way Into
the park.

iaries present endorsing the proposed
encampment and Roseburg was se
lected as the place for the encamp
ment. September 2, 3, 4 and S were
named as tentative dates, subject to
confirmation if not conflicting with
any other public events.

of cantons and auxiliaries from Har
rlsburg south and from coast to the
eastern border. In this district are
eleven cantons end about the same
number of auxiliaries.

ing equipment will be used, but at

made for a uniform encampment
equippage similar to the national
guard. The routine of the encamp
ment will be along military regulations.

miles long. Outcropping and ex
posed, this entire length is an ore
body 300 to 400 feet wide, showing
400 to BOO feet In depth of the
cliffs at each end. Thousands of
assays, the miners say, show this
free -milling ore body to average from
12,50 to $3 a ton.
Long Investigation.
W. T. Hayden of Salt Lake City
la in charge of the entire operation.
Gallagher said Hayden had spent
more than two years and 125.000
in cash investigating the field be
fore the group purchased the proper
ties which comprise several thousand
acres of land, located In Josephine
and Curry counties.
The Curry county project Is east
of Brookings.
Those backing the two develop
ments said no stock la being sold in
either.
The first work on the development
will be the construction of a 1000
acre foot storage dam at Bullion
mountain, 14 miles up Graves creek.
Start Work Soon.
Gallagher said three hydraulic
mining operations will be under
way In 60 or 00 days. They hope
to put three gold dredges on the
property, which, with 34-hour opera
tion, would have a capacity of 2000
4000 and eueo yards.
Plans for driving a 6000-foot tun
nel In what is known aa the Colum
bia mining group were revealed by
Gallagher, who said this bore would
cross-cut over 1000 surface quarts
outcropplnga that all carry milling
values of free gold, many of them
bonanza gold.
Ten mills of 1000-ton dally ca
pacity are planned for the Mount
Emily deposit and Gallagher said
the deposit Is large enough to run
them at capacity for 60 years.

That's why more and more Smokers
are changing to Chesterfield every day
WHEN you are smoking a lot of
cigarettes every day, you natural
Iy want a mild cigarette,' and smokers
try Chesterfields and find out that they
are milder and taste better.
Then smokers tell other smokers
"one smoker telling another" that they
find that although they smoke a great
many Chesterfields during the day, they
never tire of them; and that they have
found out that Chesterfield is a milder
cigarette, that it is a cigarette that tastes
better, that it is a cigarette with a most
pleasing aroma.
Some time ago, in a Chesterfield ad
vertisement, there was a statement, "A
$90,000,000 Reason," and this means
that the larger part of $90,000,000 is
invested in the right kind of ripe, mild
Domestie and Turkish tobaccos to
make sure that Chesterfields are milder
and taste better.
May we ask you to try them?
