That the forestry service has no OBJ

magazine. At Denver actual work on
the highway is under way, the state
Of Colorado having appropriated s10,-
900 600 for the work stretch of
the road $50 miles in length Is being
constructed south of Denver.
Mr.. walker recently made a trip
through that part OF Texas to be
crossed by the proposed highway. It

sented in 40 Of the 900 miles of bou-
levards leading from all parts of the
county to Houston.
In support of the Seattle-to- the

which show the relative cost of trans
ta'lon by rail and by auto; also the
cost OF railroad construction at SO

secure better water, and the money
viii be used to develop one of two
projects and possibly both, according
to the supervisor. Some Pendleton-
ians favor attempting to build a res
ervoir to catch the water of several
springs in a basin called Thorn Hol-
low, about 16 miles from the city. as
that arrangement could be carried
through for the amount of money
voted for the purpose. while other in
fluential business men believe the
supply from that source would be
sufficient to supply the city of 5000
with both drinking water and fire pro-
lection. On the other hand, the pipe
line to the Umatilla river 80 miles
above Pendleton, will, experts state,
supply the city with all the water it
needs for the next three decades and
assure the residents that they are pay
ing for the installation of a system
which means unpolluted water to
drink.
