Bandon, Or, Oct. 9.-George
w. Moore, president of the
Moore Mill & Lumber company,
has announced that q new steam
lumber carrier will be built at
once for service between Ban
don and San Francisco. The
vessel is to be of 100000 feet
capacity and will take the place
of the Bandon and Fifeld, the
two carriers wrecked during the
past year. Several shipbuilding
plants. along the coast are bidd-
ing on the job, but the vessel
may be built at the local plant,
now idle.
The Moore mill, owing to the
lack of transportation has been
unable to run at full capacity,
and negotiations are pending for
a boat to take the local run until
the new vessel Is completed. At
the present time the Acme and
Specdwell are carrying the pro-
duct of the Moore plant. -Tele-

ANOTHER HARD
WINTER PREDICTED

Indian weather forecasters
and hunters who have killed
bears this fall are predicting an
other hard winter for the mid
Columbia district. Herman Pre-
gge, an Oak Grove resident.
killed a 450-pound bruin that
had invaded the orchard dis
trict. The rolls Of fat are de-
clared to indicate a long, severe
cold period. Indian George, 90
year-old patriarch of local red
men, who foretold the big snow
last year, warns his white friends
against coming cold. George
bases his forecasts on the con-
dition of moss on trees and tho
great crop Of acorns. Higher
up snow <oming than last win
ter" he says.
