BUILDING BEGINS
ON FORD GARAGE

ON FtDkD GAkdGE
AS rapidly as possible Contrac-
tor A. L. Lamb is getting the ma
terial for the new Ford garage on
the ground at the former Hotel
Ashland site, and that section will
soon become the busiest spot in
Ashland. Yesterday Mr.. Lamb
took the big concrete mixer in to
the rear yard and will have it in
readiness to make material for the
building. A carload Of roofing is
already on the ground, as well as
q car of cement. The re-enforc-
Ing steel is on the way, and the
lumber is waiting for cars to ship
it to the scene of building. Mr..
Lamb with his crew Of men have
started on making the trenches
for the walls, and in very short
time the old building will be dis
mantled and the lumber salyaged
to be used as necessary.
The new garage will entirely fill
the lot, and will be 100 feet long
and 1873 feet wide at the rear,
and will be an ornament to the
city. 1t will be supplied with a
beautiful plate glass front, while
the alley approaching the rear
doors will be widened to 16 feet,
and will be arcaded and paved.
Contractor Lamb expects to en-
ploy a crew of 20 men or more
when building is in full swing.

lecting source of wealth which
is even more certain than the
lands and timber we have around
US, the revenue from which are
permanent and continuous so long
as 1t is, like these other natural
resources, developed and culti-
vatsd with the same thorough
ness.
Don't let me be misunder-
stood. l do not for one moment
underestimate the Importance of
the development Of our lands, our
mines, our fish or of our timber,
but | am showing that we are
neglecting something equally as
valuable.
LET us take a concrete exam
pie: Suppose 100000 comes
into city, and is paid out
through the local hotels, for
wages for cooks, walters, engin-
eers and clerks, and to the laun-
dries, auto firms, and other busl-
ness men who supply the hotels.
Does it not maintain these fam
lilies just as much as the first
100000 maintains the families
engaged in the lumber industry?
1.-THE point wish to drive home
is that the money that comes into
the country for the payment Of
recreation, pleasure and the priv
llege Of seeing our scenery Is as
valuable to the community as If
it came in for the payment of
wheat, or timber, or for anything
else.
"There is an unlimited market
TOR that which We have to sell.
Before the war American tourists
spent in Europe $500, O,0O0,0 900.
The same number of people to-
day would spend over 81, 900, ,000,-
900. In the United States American
tourists spent in the old days
$7O0,OO0,OOO per annum. Today
the same number OF people would
spend $1,000, 1000. Therefore
there is a market of from one to
two billions for the sale Of our
scenery, our climate and our rec
reation features.
1T is necessary, however, that
this industry be developed in the
same way that We develop any
other industry-by the employ
ment of capital and labor. We
have the raw material in abund-
ance. No country ON earth pos
sesses so much.
This raw material is not found
all in one place. 1t has not to be
prospected for like our minerals,
but from Atyin lake, British Co.
lumbia, in the north, to Crater
lake, Oregon, in the south, and
from the sean in the west to the
eastern boundaries of these three
commonwealths--the whole 600,-
900 square miles of scenery are
raw material, and such scenery as
cannot be found anywhere else,
either on this continent or any
other.
"In these days of autOmobiling
the country district derives as
much benefit in proportion, as the
larger cities; and the money re-
ceived from the visit Of these
strangers, who often afterward
become permanent residents, is
more widely distributed than any
money that comes from any other
industry. 1t takes less capital to
develop the tourist industry than
any other-that is, by the state.
