klamath Falls, the actual financing
the Strahorn railroad from Bend to
will not be done by the chamber as
an organization, but a committee
will be named TO promote the sale
of bonds for the railroad construc-
tion.
This action was decided on yester-
day when the board OF directors OF
the chamber adopted recommends
tions made in the report OF Nathan
Strauss, chairman of the Oregon
trade excursion committee, follow
ing the southern Oregon trip.
As outlined by Robert E. Strahorn
in conferences with officials Of the
chamber and as presented to the ex-
cursionists at Klamath Falls, con-
struction OF the line from the end
OF the first unit at Dairy to Silver
Lake has been arranged for by the
builder. From Bend to Silver Lake,
distance of ,75 miles, Mr.. Strahorn
has asked that Portland and Bend
assume the financing by sale Of
bonds to cover the cost of construc-
tion, estimated at s1,250,000.
The construction of the line be-
tween klamath Falls and Bend will
open large district now remote
from railroad transportation, en-
bracing rich resources of timber, ag-
ricultural and grazing lands. and in
cludes irrigation projects that will
bring under cultivation considerable
areas that are now unproductive.
Other recommendations in the re-
port include lending every possible
assistance to secure adequate hotel
facilities at Crater Lake and expedit-
ing construction of roads that will
enable tourists to reach the national
park with ease and comfort. II is
also the intention to give support to
the movement to induce the forest
service to build highway to the
marble caves of Josephine county.

and, counting the 1000 turned loose
this makes $4,000. II looks to me as
though the logical thing to do Is to
hold the birds over until spring. Re-
leasing birds in the fall has not
been entirely satisfactory. The birds
have to face the rains and cold and
many are lost before spring comes.
BY sheltering the birds until spring
and then releasing them they have
