No Journey of equal interest in America. . Hopes of a number of orchardists to preserve the natural beauties of a 40 acre forested tract around Warm Springs on the Lost Lake Highwaj were dashed last week when R. E. Scott received a letter from the Amer ican Timber Co.. of Milwaukee. Wis.. declining to sell the small tract. Mr. Scott and his associates ottered 11,600 for the 40 acres. The timber concern stated that it would not consider any offer except for its entire holdings of the district, an aggregate of 160 acres. The sum of $15,000 was asked for this. The local citizens, however, say they hope to preserve the beautiful wood land by effecting an exchange of an area in the national forests at some other point for the Warm Springs tract.
