A Another railroad project is under way in California. It is not a proposition of promoters, who have nothing in sight but ‘a few maps and a preponderance of will- ingness to carry it dut providing some one else will supply the necessary cash, but is a bond fide enterprise backed by Millionaire Thomas Barton Walker of Minneapolis. His plan is to construct about %30 miles of road extending from Red Bluff in a northeasterly direction to the yorthern border line.of the State. Witlker made many millions of dollare| in the lumber business in Minnesgta, and about“tight years ago he came to Cali- forniac and began buying heavily of pine timber, lands in Modoc, Plumas, Sierra and other counties In {he northeastern portion of the State. He has since made frequent trips to California for the same purpose until he has acquired in the neighborhood of 340,000 acres of timber land. He paid on an average of, $5 per acre and could to-day sell hischoldings as Pa whole for a price ghowe $15 an acre. ° Early last.year Walker took the first steps toward constructing a yoad through° ber properties are lpcated.
