Oregcu's Wool Industry.
(Sunset Magazine.)

Nowhere in the world. except in Aus
tralia, is there finer or better wool pro-
duced than in Oregon. Naturally, the
quality varies even here, for the fineness
of a fleece depends almost entirely upon
climatic conditions. The sheep require
dry but bracing climate and we'll
drained soil for pasturage. These condi-
tfons are at their best in eastern Oregon
and the uplands of the Willamette VAL
ley. Sheep raised on the lower levels
of the valley net the sheepmen a larger
sum for each fleece than those bred on
the higher attitudes or on the other side
of the Cascades. for the reason that a
moist climate conduces to a very thick
and heavy growth of wool; the fact that
1t Is thicker and heavier proves that the
fiber or staple Is of coarser quality, but
as wool is bought by weight the heavier
fleece necessarily brings larger return.

Candle Power.
(Boston Herald.)

In the German cities candle power is
no longer "A measure. They laugh at it.
and In Berlin the ordinary fishtail burn
ers with which candle power is meas
ured are as scarce as hens teeth. For
use with the mantle. for the stove and
the gas engine, heating power is what
is needed rather than candle power In
London two of the companies are now
supplying gas of less than 15-candle-
power. while here In Boston one of the
tests made last year showed as high as
24-candlepower, and on tho Sc tests
made the average figure was 1926
High candlepower gas is not only waste
full to burn under modern methods, but
it is actually not so good for fuel and
power purposes as that with less car
bon, for the carbon closes holes and
vents and makes more frequent clean
ing necessary. The only plants in the
United Kingdom still sticking to high
candlepower are those located near the
camel coal fields, the city of Edinburg
being an example. Many Of the Eng
lish gas engineers told our correspond
ent last Summer that they hoped and
believed Parliament would adopt 12-
candlepower standard in the near fu-
ture. Such a move would permit of a
reduction in the price charged for gas
and an increased consumption for all
purposes. particularly heat and power

Maj. L. P. Williams. the writer of
the above, Is one of the valued Clerks
Of the Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia. and has held that position
for many years. He is one of only five
or six now living who succeeded in
reaching the Union lines after getting
out through the tunnel, and his story of
his wanderings through the bitter cold
weather from Richmond to the Union
lines at Williamsburg is one of intense
interest. He was greatly helped by a
rude map of Richmond and its en-
virons which he made by laying a sheet
Of oiled paper upon map tnat some
one had in the prison. He has possess
sion of this copy to-day. 1t is old, yell
lowed with time, blurred and indistinct
but it is one Of his most precious relics.
It took Maj. Williams just a week to
make the trip to our lines, and as the
weather was that of the intensely cold
Winter of 1S63-64. which our older
readers will remember. the hardships
and suffering of himself and compan-
ions were beyond description. They
had many narrow escapes. as the whole
country around Richmond was filled
with patrols sent out to intercept the
fugitives. We present herewith as good
a reproduction as can be made of Maj.

WOODLAND STRIPPED BY GYPSY MOTT

they have been more destructive than
ever. Recently IL was recognized that
some method in addition to destroying
the nests and caterpillars must be de-
vised to eXterminate the moths, and a
parasitic enemy of the moths has con-
sequently been imported from Europe.
The gypsy moth is seen in many sec
tionS of Europe. but its ravages are
comparatively mild because of the ex-
istence of a four-winged fly which lays
its eggs in the gypsy moth caterpiller.
To secure this fiy-infected caterpillars
are imported. The United States De-
partment of Agriculture. acting in CO.
operation with the gypsy moth service
of the State of Massachusetts, has or
ganized a service in Europe whose busi
ness it Is to collect the gypsy and
brown-tail nests and ship them to
America. During the past season 49,
900 moth nests were imported into this
country. These nests We're kept in
sealed cages until the caterpillars de-
veloped, and the expert knew what was
to come out of the nest. Each cater
pillar was then carefully examined, and
all caterpillars found to be free of the
parasite were destroyed. whereas the
caterpillars that contained the parasite
were distributed in those parts of Mas
sachusetts where the gypsy moth Is most
prevalent. AS each nest contained
about 250 caterpillars, the work in
volved the examination of over 25,000,-
900 caterpillars, and of these one-half
of one per cent, or about 100000, were
found to contain the parasite. Ut is
interesting to note that many caterpil-
lars contained parasites other than the
desired variety; SO different species of
paraxites were. in fact. discovered and

plan proposed by the venerable Gen.
Scott it had been proposed to form a
great army at Xenia, o., to move de
rectly upon Chattanooga and paralyza
the rebellion by breaking its backbone.
Gen. Joseph E. Johnston had repeated
~ pointed out to Jefferson Davis that
the possession of Chattanooga was vital
to the Southern Confederacy, and that
he must retain it, even though 1t cost
the loss of the Mississippi. We had
come near getting It by surprise when
Gen. Mitchell made his dashing advance

passed into history as one of the great

Dimensions of Sea Waves.

A recent article by DR.. Vaughan Cor
nish, in the London Geographical Jour-
nal, furnishes some extremely interest
ing data respecting deep sea waves.
From many hundreds of observations
made during 40 years by Independent
observers, he shows that on the aver
age the height of a wave in feet (meas-
ured from crest to trough) is in round
numbers one-half Of the winds velocity
in statute miles per hour. By this rule,
which does not express a dynamical
law, the height of a wave raised in the
deep, open sea by wind of full hurri-
cane force-i. e., having a velocity Of
80 statute miles per hour-would be 45
feet

Southern Pacific officials state that
the Salton Sea, in the Colorado Desert,
is rising less than an inch a day now,

(From tho aGraphical Magazinc)
Some years ago "a gentleman of Mas
sachusetts, who was of an experimental
frame OF mind imported some gypsy
moths from Europe. in the hope of
being able to cross them with the silk
worm, and thus obtain type of silk
worm sufficiently hardy to stand the
Massachusetts climate. Unfortunately
his experiment failed, and some of the
gypsy moths escaped. In the course of
time they spread until they became
known as the gypsy moth pest of east
ern Massachusetts. Another destructive
moth. the brown-tail moth. obtained an
entrance several years later. concealed
in a shipment of roses from Holland.
The State of Massachusetts has spent
about s1.00O.O00 trying 20 check the
ravages of these two moths. At one
time it had them pretty well under con-
troll. but the omission OF an appropria-
ton for several years enabled them to
spread again, and the last several years

THE RUSSIAN FLEET IN BATTLE.

We are beginning to get some accu-
rate Information in regard to the Rus

Japanese Sea. An American officer VINO

the Russian sailors were hopeless

the presence OF the japanese fleet,
though but little attention was paid to
1t. When the fog lifted the japanese
were seen in admirable line, maneuVer-
ing with great skill, and the fire that
opened was simply terrific in its accu-
racy and force. The Russians made
but feeble reply, not enough to en-
barrass the Japanese aim. The japanese
concentrated their fire on one ship after
another and speedily put her out of ac-
tion. One great embarrassment OF the
Russians was the unusual number OF
fires that broke out on their ships 10
the Generalization of the crews. The
woodwork had been eliminated as far
as possible, but the hammocks and
ilawsers were centers of con!lagration,
and the smoke drove the men from the
guns. The war paint was a,so danger,
as it blazed all over the sides oe the YES

selected by the Japanese, and IN six
minutes she was struck II times with
12-inch and from 80 to 40 times with
six-inch and eight-inch shells. The Orel

ment. The average range was 5000
yards and the atmosphere hazy. The
Russians had telescope sights on all
their guns, but these were quickly rem

New Light on the Race Problem.

Robert Bennett Bean, NJ. D., believes
that scientific investigation has proved
an absolute and structural difference
in the brain of the white man
and the negro, a difference which must
be considered in any rational ad-
justment of the relations between
the two races. He has prepared
for the September Century the first full
authoritative discussion, adequately H.

a discussion which cannot fail to throw
interesting and valuable light upon the
