S1.OO PER YARD Is COST
OF HARD PAVEMENT To CITY

The work of grading and paving
the streets OF the north part nj
Grants Pass, including Lawnridga
avenue, Washington Boulevard. Man
zanita and Evelyn avenues, is nro-
crossing rapidly, and next Week win
witness the first placing of the ton
pavement.
Lawnridge avenue is completed ev.
cept for the pavement, all gradin,
and concrete work being finished AZ
is also the case with Evelyn avenue
Washington Boulevard is practically
prepared for the pavement. and
grading is progressing on Manzan-
ita.
From 90 to 80 men are emploved
on the work, besides numerous teams
and one big auto truck. The crush
ed rock used by Schell & Scheu is
obtained from the crusher located
on the river bank south OF town. and
next week Contractor Anderson win
move the crusher owned by the civ
that has stood unused north of town
for the past year, to the river. and
will crush river rock To use on his
contracts.
1t is expected that another mootb
will be required to complete the i'm
proving of the four streets named.
Owing to threatening rains. con-
tractors Schell & Schell have been
delayed in beginning work on the
finishing course of the hard surface
pavement along Lawnridge avenue.
The base course, or foundation. is
complete for a distance of about -
200 feet, and all there remains to be
done is the application of the asphal-
tum and fine stone chips, together
with the necessary rolling and shap-
ing for the finished surface.
When this pavement is completed
the city of Grants Pass will have the
first actual smooth, water proof hard
surface, asphaltic pavement laid in
this section of the country at or near
the one dollar mark per square yard.
This pavement is being laid under
specifications prepared to fit the con-
ditions and materials to be used by
City Engineer Hobson, who has ad-
yocated this style of pavement as be-
ing the best possible improvement.
for the money, and as being up to th
requirements for any of the residence
streets of the city
There are several new features
which have been embodied in this
construction and which are said by
those who have given the matter con-
siderable study to be a decided i'm
provement in the method OF mixing
the bitumen and carefully sized par
ticles of rock, stone chips, etc. both
as to cost and permanency. The
contractors, after studying the plans
and specifications, have purchased
the machinery required and have con-
tracted to lay the pavement at SLo4
per square yard. Contracts for the
same kind of pavement was let
week later than the Lawnridge CON
tract to Albert Anderson & Co.. at
80 cents per square yard. Thus it is
evident that a pavement may be laid
at 800 per square yard, where the
rock is. elevated from the river bed
and hauled a distance OF about
miles, and the oil is delivered on the
street at an average Of three quarters

Show Helps Business With Local Store.

That it does local merchants some
good TO have big show like the
Campbell Bros. Shows to come to
town is amply evidenced by the
large contracts made by local deal
ers. It takes money to run great
show and it takes vast amount to
feed the employees and animals.
Show people live well, and on ly
the best OF everything is used in tn
commissionary department. That
big show leaves a liberal lump of
money in cityfat times is evident
from the. contracts made here. To q.
