RUMORS OF NEW DEPOT PLAN FOR LA GRANDE

Rumors say the 0 R N line will relocate the depot about ten feet from tracks and add a cement platform between the depot and main line. A vacant lot near Jefferson Avenue would become a lawn with a fountain and flower beds. The railroad may pave the street from the depot, and improve the surrounding quarter, boosting La Grande as a paving center.

Some areas exceed average yields while others remain uncut, hurting small farmers and homesteaders.
