Tuttle. Mr. Tuttle has corresponded with the owner of the private land do- sired and asked for permission to establish a permanent county camp- ground.

Railroad and Shop News OTIS ILL SPARKLE Auto Polish Utilized to Cause 'Iron Horse' to Glisten After Painting A railroad engineer with a good supply of automobile polish can keep his locomotive looking spick and span, according to new plans of the Santa Fe and Union Pacific lines.

As the result of tests conducted for the last year, the Santa Fe shops in San Bernardino have been instructed to use a type of automo bile paint In spraying the locomo tives turned out after undergoing repair. The color adopted by the Santa Fe i3 a straight black. It Is claimed that the color will last longer and that by merely rubbing over with a rag, the dust will drop off and the engine will look like new. It Is claimed that the new type of paint is more economical. The Union Pacific locomotives run nlng through.

San Bernardino to Salt Lake have a dark green finish of the same type of paint. This paint, too, Is durable and can stand the heat of the boiler and of the desert sun.
