Coos County Seeks Prosperity From Timber and Coal
Coos County, long cut off from state links, now gains two macadam highways and a coast route rail spur. It boasts twenty billion feet of virgin timber, one billion tons coal, and rich mineral potential, with farming land valued at about five million dollars and annual income near three and a half million. The Port of Coos Bay, as a deep water harbor, is poised to become a major forest port with expanding industry and possible cross state rail access to the Orient.
