vile line. This will give the Southern
Pacific straight route to Portland
and one which will exceed by but five
miles in length that of the Oregon
Electric.
Dallas Road Abandoned.
Predictions were made several
months ago that the Southern Pacific
would build line from Dallas to To
ledo, and connect up at Newport, Civ
ing 1t line from there to Portland.
Railroad men now say that this route
has been abandoned, because of the
infeasibility of the grade over the
mountains, and that the line will be
built instead, ostensibly by a logging
concern, from Airlie, a station on the
Southern Pacific. The main reason
for constructing this road, 1t is said,
is for the logging concern to reach an
area of timber which is rapidly dete-
riorating.
Means Another Depot.
The building of the bridge across
the river, the extension of the Salem,
Falls City & Western to Oregon City
and to Stayton means another depot in
the city According to those CONVEX

already been perfected for the depot.

will be modern in every phase Of con-
struction and equipment Just where
the depot will be built is a matter of
speculation, Just as is the case with the
Oregon Electric, but both will probably
be built on Front street.
Explains Franchise Fight.
The announcement of the extension
Of these two lines, and the Prediction
with regard to the river route to
Portland, explains the fight waged be-
tween the Oregon Electric and the
Southern Parific for franchises on
Front street. This fight has been
waged in the council now for a year,
and is still not ended but 1t is be-
lieved that before long a settlement
OF the controversy would be reached
satisfactory to all
While the building Of these lines
will serve vastly to build up country
rich in resources, It Is predicted that 1t
is but the beginning Of the fight being
waged between the two giant railroad
companies for supremacy in the VIII

Despite the fact that the police has
diligently made inquiries with the
view of locating r. Paustlum. who
mysteriously disappeared from his

Paustiun was a bachelor and lived

Basing their prediction on resolu-
ton filed yesterday with Secretary of
State 0lcott by the Salem, Falls City
& Western Railroad company, an affll-
lated line of the Southern Pacific, and
also other movements made recently
by officials of the latter road, railroad
men in the city are predicting that,
with the coming Of spring, the work
Of constructing the bridge for the Sa-
lem, Falls City & Western line across
the willamette and into the city will
be begun, and also the work of build
ing a line down the river to Dayton to
conyect with the Southern Pacific line
there, giving the Southern Pacific an
electric road to Portland from here,
which will be only five miles longer
than the Oregon Electric route.
Branch Lines BE Built.
The resolution filed with the secre-
tary Of state calls for the extension of
the Salem Falls City.& Western line
from this city to Silverton, Mollala,
Mulino and then to Oregon City,
where connections will be made with
the Southern Pacific. It also calls for
the construction of branch line
from the city to Stayton and connec-
tions will presumably be made by this
line at some point of the Southern
Pacific, These two lines will tap
territory which is immensely rich in
resources, and will bring about their
development to an extent that will ex-
ceed the dreams Of the most sanguine
boosters of the Willamette valley.
River Route to Portland.
The above is one which railroad men
have long predicted, and another which
they are now predicting, and which
they say, has assumed those proper
tons that 1t is certainty, Is a river
route from the city to Dayton and st.

and McMinnville, and will also electri-

and will make connections at Dayton

The most effective single factor in
keeping dirt-and the bacteria which
accompany tout of milk, is the use
Of the small-topped or covered pail
In extended tests at the New York
agricultural experiment station, al
Geneva, with several forms of covered
pals, the reduction In the numbers Of
bacteria ranged from one-half to two
thirds. This was in a stable already
under good sanitary conditions, so
that much less reduction was to be
expected than In the ordinary farm
stable. II is perfectly safe to say that
the use Of the small-topped pail In
any country COW stable will exclude
more than one-half the bacteria now
found in the milk from that stable.
One of the most efficient of such pals
Is made by attaching simple cover
to the common open pail. the making
and putting on of this cover being
simple operations. Any tinsmith
should do the work for less than 81.
Full details Of these tests are given

Long Standing is so named from
