will be necessary for those wishing
to talk to the cannery to call up the

this fall so that a conversation will
then be possible direct. Tn the mean
while, if you have anything you
want to say to the cannery people,
just call up the New England, and
they will pass the word along for you.

OPEN FOE TEAFFIC
Street Commissioner Shark reports
that the work on opening up Sted-j
man Street is completed. The street
has been opened up a full sixteen ,
feet in width and is now ready for
traffic. The surface on the upper
end is of washed gravel, and the
expectations are that it will handle,
tho traffic over the hill without rut
ting during the winter months. The
dirt street is 215 feet in length, am!
at one place the cut amounts to seven
feet, and the whole thing was done at
a total cost to the city, outside the
salary of the Street Commissioner,
of $132.40, or less than 53 eenfs peri
foot. This low footage cost com-1
pared with the cost of plank streotsi
is a big argument in favor of the1
dirt street.
