The position of Aberdeen could not be
excelled for combining water front busi-
ness property and sites for COCO homes
all in the space of three square miles. III
front Of the city flows the Chehalis, the
largest river in Southwestern Washing
ton, and one of the largest in the North
west. At this point, the river is about
1000 feet wide and carries depth Of
from 25 to IS feet of water at low tide foz
four miles. The Wishkah now comes
down from the north with depth Of 80
feet at low tide and width of $50 feet,
and flows directly through the city and

Railroads..

The best evidence Of Aberdeen's inn
portance as an ocean port and short-line
cutoff to the sea, is that offered by the
efforts that the Northern Pacific are max
ing to reach this city in advance OF the
o. & W. 7. R. r. This latter road, in
turn, is striving to the limit OF its powers
to outstrip its formidable rival in the
race to the head of navigation on Grays
Harbor.
These two roads have between them
some four thousand men at work between
Tacoma, on Puget Sound; Centralia, at
the head of the valley, and this city. The
n. P. r. r. having bought the Puget
Sound & Grays Harbor railroad, will be
able to make rail connection with Port
land, Tacoma and the east, via Centralia
and Montesano, as soon as Jan. l. At the
present time they are at work with a large
force of men in South Aberdeen clearing
for freight yards, warehouses, docks and
passenger depot. In conjunction with
the South Aberdeen Company, they are
erecting large number of buildings,
both for business and residence purposes.
They also have large force Of men at
work on the north side of the river build
ing their lines in to the city proper The
o. & W. T. r. R., better known as the
Hunt Road, will probably reach .Aber-
deem about next spring with
their train service. This road will no
doubt be used by the Union Pacific for
its ocean outlet upon the completion Of
the latter road from Portland to Puget
Sound. m
These three roads are the most import
ant ones now seeking to reach the
Grays Harbor country; although there

can be no doubt of Aberdeen continuing
her present rapid advancement until she
becomes one of the largest cities on the
Northwest coast.

Water Works.

The Aberdeen Water Company re-
Gently put in a water plant for fire pro-
lection, at cost Of $4,000. Pipes were
laid on all the principal streets with ten
and eight inch mains. A battery Of Dow
pumps of large capacity furnish ample
power to throw four two-inch streams
over any block in the city. Early in
October the city voted "a bonded indebt-
edness of $65 900, the money to be spent
in putting in first-class plant for both
fire protection and domestic use. An
additional s. 900 was also voted for the
purchase OF the present plant. When
the work is completed, Aberdeen's water
supply will be excelled by none in the
state, as particularly favorable terms
kere offered by the owner OF an excellent

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1891-10-16

If the cherished dreams OF the
commissioners are fulfilled Golden
Gate Park, or section OF it at
least, will resemble the luxuriant
gardens of the South Sea Islands
or the verdant forests OF tropical
New Zealand in few years to
come.
About three years ago the guard
ians of the peoples pleasure ground
brought from Australia a hardy
specimen of the cibotium, or tree
fern, and transplanted it in a
favored spot near the lodge. The
conditions to it's growth were
favorable and the fern has thrlven
beyond the most sanguine hopes OF
its careful watchers.
Satisfied that the experiment was
success, the commissioners two
months ago engaged r. K. Stevens,
the botanist of Santa Barbara, to
visit Hawaii and select several
hundred of the rarest varieties of
the tree fern, and also Of the dwarf
fern, that he could obtain in the
islands. The first fruit of the bot
anist's efforts arrived by the Mono
wal in the shape of 800 specimens
Of the cibotium. In letter which
came by the same steamer, Mr..
Stevens states that in another
month he will have ready for ship
ment 200 varieties of the adiantum,
or big dwarf fern, and 1000 asple-
mum, or little dwarf fern, besides
fifty specimens of the royal palm.
The cilotium is beyond doubt the
largest and richest of the giant tree
ferns, which are to be found only
in the islands of the South Sea.
Their life is limited generally to
100 years, although the healthier
plants have frequently attained
greater age. Their age is deter
mined by their height. The cibo-
tium grows three inches-every year.
A plant Is years old, therefore,
would have reached the height of
IS teet. In plant of this age the
spread across the widest portion
at the top--would be nearly %
feet. It's foliage is q deep, rich
green and the leaves are as per-
fectly moulded as those of the more
delicate dwarf fern. Many varie-
ties of the cibotium are found in
New Zealand, Australia and Brazil,
but they do not compare, either in
size Or beauty, with those Of the
South Sea Islands.
The home of these tropical emf
grants will be on the east side of
Strawberry Hill. If the present
plans of the Park Commissioners
are carried out, an immense gorge
several hundred feet in length will
be excavated. At the head there
will be waterfall with depth of
seventy feet, and the ferns and the
palms will be planted closely to-
gether and IN artistic confusion
along the sides of the canyon. The
effect will be a bewildering mass of
charming green foliage, such as
can be seen only in the rich forests
and gardens of Hawaii.
A force of men are now at work
on the excavation and the commits
sloners hope to have it completed
by May LIST. The plants, in the
mean time, will be nurtured in the
conservatory.-[S. F. Chronicle.
