The popular fishing ground
about Fernbearst dock is q busy
place at present. Some boats
have been netting as much as
$50 and 5000 a day salmon
selling at soc and 75c.
Three-quarters OF a mile has
been added this season to the
much needed road between
Fernhearst and Maury docks.
1t is expected that the road will
be completed next season, and
so an outlet furnished for the
popular summer resort at Luana
Beach.
We voice the sentiments of the
Dockton correspondent, in re-
gard to an outlet by road from
that hustling city. We under
stand that the right. of way has
already been secured for a wa
ter.grade road, all the way from
the Mentzer saw mill to Dock
ton, with the exception of
small strip, and the party who
owns that is willing and anxious
to deed it over for the benefit of
highway. This route would
not be an expensive road to
build, as the beach the entire
way is susceptible to driving pill
ing, while the road bed could be
easily secured from the adjacent
bluffs and banks. The question
is, how much money is available
for road purposes on Maury the
coming year? The entire amount
could be put to no better use
than giving Dockton an outlet
by land.
