WORK STARTED ON
CANYON ROAD PROJECT
Canyon Will be Closed During Per-
iod Of Construction-Wm Fin
ish First Unit This Spring

The w. K. Everingham contract
ing outfit arrived last week, and
have started operations on the $685.
600 Improvement project which
will rebuild a quarter-of-mile stretch
of road west of the dam. About
twenty men r employed at the
present time and it is planned to
increase the force as fast as equip
ment and housing facilities can be
provided.
During the construction of this
unit of the Northfork road. traffic
will be routed around the lake, on
the road used a year ago when
the former road project was under
way. 1t will necessitate a much
longer haul for those living up that
way, but it will be at a season when
little traffic will use the road. Sun
day was the last day that the can
yon road could be used.
In the building of the quarter
mile beyond the dam, the one mar
row piece of road on Cody's most
seventy" will be eliminated.
The new road is being built with
forest service funds, assisted by the
federal bureau of roads, and the
thorofare will on an easy grade,
and sufficiently wide for double
way traffic.
The project starts at a point
just beyond the dam, near the To-
cation of the old rock crusher, and
will take a slightly upward trend,
a line above the site of
the reclamation buildings beyond
the dam, and joining the new road
finished last year at the west en-
trance to the canyon. The Ever
ingham company, due to the late
ness of the season, expect to finish
only that part of the project be-
tween the dam and the ice house
north of the reclamation buildings
spring. finishing the work after
1926 tourist season.
However, the road which is to
be constructed this spring will do
away with several sharp turns in
the canon, and with the completion
of the project, the road to Yellow
stone park via the eastern entrance
will be one Of the best in the state.

CODY CORBETT ROAD
CONTRACT TO Be LET
State To Ask for Bids for Eight
Miles of Graded, Graveled
Road, March 3Oth

Should there be no further COM
plications in the securing of the
right-of-way for the Cody-Corbett
road project. bids will be received
March 30th, by the state highway
department. and it is expected that
by early spring dirt will begin to
move, and the first lap of the
Cody-Powell road will be in the
making of a graveled highway. This
road project was made a two-year
project in 1925, but due to right
of-way disputes work was not start
ed last season. At the last term
of court the case of l.. Ebert and
Edith Holms were disposed of, and
the highway commission is now
ready to proceed with its work.
The project as surveyed will
start at the northeast corner of the
fair grounds and continue east by
the 1. N. McGuffey ranch, along
the hill to a point near where the
temporary crossing is now made
across Sage creek. A modern bridge
will be constructed there, and the
road will run ~diagonally across
the L.. Ebert ranch, cutting off a
corner of this place, and continue
on down through the Pearson Bros
holdings to a point where 1t will
descend the Corbbett hill on prac-
tically the old grade.

POWELL CABBAGE GROW
Err RECEIVES Big PROFITS

AS an Illustration of what may be
done on Shoshone project lands.
F. c. Churchill and son last week
completed the shipment of six cars
of cabbage to market. The ship
ment approvimated ninety tons and
were grown on eleven acres of land
near the town of Powell, and brot
to the growers a return of $500.
In commenting on his crop, Mr..
Churchill stated that cabbage ma
tured very satisfactory in this sec
ton, but that it was a crop that
anyone without experience should
shun. He has had many years ex-
perience with cabbage. and under
stands its growth and the care it
needs to keep it in good condition
for marketing. Cabbage, during the
average year., must be held by the
grower for a favorablee market.

In writing regarding the building
appropriations, Senator Warren
states there is not the slightest
doubt but that the Senate will pass
It's approval upon the building pro-
gram. During the war, and since,
there has been no appropriations
for building. and as a consequence
with the rapid growth of the Unit
ed States, conditions in many places
are deplorable. House Roll $3.50
contains appropriations for every
state in the Union, and every pres
sure has been brought to bear on
Congressman to have the bill pass
ed. The only two towns in Wyo-
ming which come in for federal
buildings under the bill mentioned
are Buffalo and Cody.
AS a further evidence that the
building program is to be put thru
with all possible promptness is evil
denced by bulletins announcing CIV
ii service examinations at which
time applications of architects, as
sistant architects and associate and
architectural engineers will
be received. 1t is estimated that
at least two hundred of these train
ed builders will be required by
the government to carry out its
colossal building program.

HOME ALMOST
A TOTAL Loss BY FIRE

One of Cody's finest residences.
the old home of ]. M. Schwoob, was
almost a total loss by fire on Fri
day evening. The conflagration orr
ginated in the basement and before
1t could be extinguished, the struc-
ture of the fine residence was des-
troyed.
The fire was first discovered by
r. P. Hindman, the present owner
when the dense smoke awakened
he and his family. They immediat-
ly escaped from the burning build
ing and an alarm Sent in. The
fire was soon under control when
the fire department arrived, but the
flames which had been confined
within the basement and underneath
the residence had wrought a heavy
damage before checked. A room to
the north was almost totally des-
troyed, and the entire home damag-
ed by fire and water. The floors
of the down stairs, which were of
heavy oak, were almost burned thru
and the stills a total loss.
Mr.. Hindman states, that altho
his home was fairly covered with
insurance, he feels thai the damage
is of such a nature, that it will be
almost impossible to replace the
home, with even the total amount
of the policies.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hindman wish to
express their appreciation of the
splendid work done by the fire
boys, and of the many acts of kind
ness showed them by their friends
during their misfortune.

After waiting over a period of
tnirteen years for the ~opportune
