The Buffalo Pitts combinatlorr steam
road roller was given a trial yesterday
on a stretch of road which had been
prepared byi the 'Marion " county j au
thorities, about : two miles south of
Salem. : The trial demonstrated v the
fact that the big machine wjli'do ari
that is claimed for.-It In" the' Way of
road building and the workings of the
roller, proved entirely satisfactory In
every detail. As a result of yester
day's demonstration, the contract for
the purchasing of the machine was
closed last evening between the Marion
county authorities and . the Buffalo
Pitts Company. The contract 'price,-Is
$2500. but the company will allow a
discount of 20 per cent for ash, and
Marlon county, being out of debt, with
a handsome balance in the treasury,
the discount, of course, will be taken
advantage of by the eounty. authori
ties. : .- ; -.' .
The monster toad builder which last
evening became : the property of Ma
rlon county, is a. valuable piece of ma
chinery and highly necessary., to the
successful building and permanent im
provement of public highways. The
machine is known as the standard Buf
falo Pitts double .engine combination
road roller, ; the engine, which is . an
eighteen horse-power, having a double
cylinder, and link motion valves, the
same as are used on locomotives. With
the , machine are furnished adjustable
rims for the front wheels, which con

twelve inch face, and two rear driv
rolls, i with twenty Inch face, to . take
the place of the traction wheels, also
twenty-eight steel picks which can be
fastened to the wheels, rendering ' the
machine serviceable in tearing up ma
cadam or rock bottom roads. In addi
tion, the company furnishes a 110-foot
six-play canvas stitched drive belt to
be used in operating the rock chusher,
and a Buffalo i Pitts tank and wagon,

authorities may choose. 4 ... ,
Roy V. Ohmart has been selected by
the members of the ; Marion county
commissioners court to take chxrge of

Ohmart. has had a great deal of prac
tical experience In the operating of en
gines similar to this one. " -1 4
Besides the members of the i com
missioners j court, a large number : of
taxpayers and good roads enthusiasts
were present when the roller was be
ing tried yesterday, and all agreed that
such a machine was necessary in order
to obtain the best results In the. work
of permanent road improvement.
In an Interview with Judge Scott, af
ter the deal had been closed last even

v. "We purchased the road roller" ata
very low figure for ( cash, and on Ac
count of close competition between the
Buffalo Pitts Company and . the Port
Huron Thresher Company, who manu
facture similar roller. .-
The list price of the engine alone
at the factory at Buffalo, without the
road roller wheels. Is S2250, tnd " the
actual cost of making the. road roller
wheels is 1448. and In addition to this
we are t set a water tank with trucks,
a belt and side curtains.
, "It Is my opinion that this roller will
give the county better service than the
standard road roller that vlls for
13750. It is easier operated and we can
run our rock crusher with it during the
winter months when labor-is cheaner
than during the busy season of the
year. ' - v;
It will be our purpose to locate the
crusher at some point In the country,
before the roads get soft in the fall,
where the people ! are willing to liaui
the rock we shall crush and place the
same upon", the roads as soon as :ney
get dry during the following spring.: ;

to the county court by the ueople of
both. Stay ton and Scott's Mills road
districts, . . , ;
.. "While, the first outlay for roadm
chinery, seems quite expensive. -It
should not be so considered, vhen we
consider .that it causes enough extra

SWERS BEAR MISSTATEMENTS
IN ENGLISH PAPER.
The local hop market remains very
quiet, so quiet iff fact that' the subject
is seldom discussed of late, and j the
dealers are unwilling : to talk prices.
The waiting game recommended by
the Eastern bear dealers, buying only
what hops thoy actually need from day
to day to supply present needs,: is be
ing carried oHit to the letter, and hence,
while It Is actually known that hops
are needed, there is no inquiry. Occa
sionally, however, a few bales are
bought in Sa!emJ Kreba Bros, yester
day purchased the Jos. Eldridge lot of
fifty bales,- from Champoeg.' but i the
price paid could .not be learned. '
Jamea Winfctanley, secretary of the
Oregon Hop .Growers' . Association, ;, Is
still sanguine over the prospects, de
claring, that nothing but tear control
of the marget has forced hops to their
present low price. Mr. Winstanley does
not speak without good reason, as' he
is kept thoroughly posted on the ac
tual conditions In all parts of the hop
world. He receives copies of the lead
ing English papers dealing wlUv .h
subject, and recently went to the trou
ble of corresponding With every grow
er holding , hops in Oregon and has
found from their reports that there is
a trifle over 9.000 bales of hpps la. the
growers hands in Oregon. These ni
tres may be relied upon as correct.
In a recent copy of the Kentish Ob
server, published In Kentish. England,
appears a communication signed by
Paul R. O. Horst. Klcgg and Co, Ltd,
in which they refer to a letter written
by their Pacific Coast representative,
who states that 50.000 bales of Pacific
Coast hops are yet to be disposed' of.
Mr. Winstsnley ; took exqeption3 to
these gross misstatements, and ; last
Saturday, April 17th, wre an answer
to the letter, giving the facts In the
case. The letter will appear In the
next issue of the Kentish Observer,
