DOUGLAS STREET & SOUTH

     South of the railroad tracks, just east of Pierpoint's pond, were 4th and Chelan would cross if they went through, was the Farmers Union Grain Company.  Ad from Coulee City Dispatch - May 14, 1942: http://www.facebook.com/index.php#!/photo.php?fbid=10150303062520143&set=oa.260175237354253&type=1&theater

     Oscar Larson's Richfield Oil Company was on "the corner of 3rd and Douglas, next to the railroad tracks . . .  it was used by Cenex in later years, and now has been razed." [Dan Bolyard]  "The 1930 Sanborn Fire Insurance maps shows [the] location as 'Shell Oil Co.'"

     Dale Aldrich was the Union Oil dealer in the 50's to 70's.  This was located just south of the Assembly of God Church on 2nd.
