FORCE OF SEA WAVES.
Tremendous Power That Would Soon
Pound q Ship to Pieces.


The nature and effect of sea waves
has been a subject of study by engineers
engaged in the construction of works
along the coasts. Sea waves result from
wind pressure. The minimum wind We
locity that can generate them is said to
be two feet a second, and the waves
thus produced measure three-fourths of
an inch from crest to crest.
A violent gale is said TO have produced
a wave $3.50 feet from crest to crest.
The size of a wave is dependent upon
the velocity of the wind and the fetch"
or distance along which propagation is
continued. while the duration Of the
wind, the water depth and shore con-
formation are 10 be considered in a study
of the effect waves may have upon the
shore. Sometimes there are two sys-
TENS of waves in motion at the same
time, one superimposed upon another,
or they may travel in different direc-
tons. When two systems travelling in
different directions meet they produce
the large occasional waves. Deep water
waves are usually from 160 feet to 800
feet long and last from six 10 eight sec
onds. 1t is rare, according to students
Of waves, that length of sc feet is
exceeded.
One can understand from the figures
given by the dyuamometer, which meas
ures the force of waves, why it is that
powerfully Duilt ShlpS are soon pounded

The kinetic energy is due TO the revolu-
ton Of the water particles. while the po-

the center Of gravity of the mass of
water comprising the crest above the
center of gravity Of the corresponding
mass Of still water

The salt tears come you see;

CHAPTER VI.

"But you promised we should come
home tomorrow and we are so tired of
being here. Oh, Sage, it is too bad!"
Children, do be reasonable" entreat-
ed Sage Must tell you again that
er-Jim is not so well; he had bad
fainting fit yesterday afternoon, and the
doctor won't hear of your returning for
a day or two because the house must be
kept absolutely quiet"

Bah was in open rebellion.

had never come near the place."
ooh, so do II" Sage cried from the
bottom of her heart.
Then, alarmed by her own indiscreet
admission, she FASTENED to remind the
twins that if they intended to accom-
pany her to church that morning they
had better be putting on their hats. She
stood waiting for them in Mrs. Masters
little drawing room, looking paler than
usual and much perplexed. Her sympa-
thies were so excited by Jerrold Mines
plight that she almost forgot to specu-
late as to the whereabouts of the bona
fide Cousin Jim.
He is sure to appear sooner or later.
Americans are so casual" she told her
self. 1T is certainly strange that his
luggage should have arrived; but the
question is, what is to become Of this
unhappy boy upstairs?"
Her first impulse had been to take the
doctor into her confidence, but on second
thoughts she decided that it would be
best to keep silence until she had spoken
TO Jerrold Mines again.
Doctor Masters would not under
staHAyA she thought "He would be flu
rious at the deception; he might insist
upon giving him up to the police at
once"
So the upshot of her reflections was
that the secret must be kept, at any rate
Tor the present.
The twins were too full of their own
affairs to notice their sisters preOecupa-
ton as she walked with them to church.
They were passing under the lychgate,
when Bah uttered an excited exclama-
ton

CHAPTER VII.

The words fell with startling distinct
ness on Sage's ear. She was hurrying
homewards from her class at the Sun
day school, and, though she had noticed
a l1an approaching her, she had not given
him a second glance until he blocked
her path and stood with outstretched
hands and eyes full of misehievous
amusement.

fingers and STOPPING TO bring his

she might she could not bring the fib
out under that merciless, qnzzicai gaze,
and the half-mournful smile with which
Jim Milward had awaited it gave place
to an expression of relief.
"All right. don't bother about explana-
tions There has been a stupid mudde

"We-we never got the letter." Sage
murmured. The admission escaped her
unawares; she bit her lip, but it was too
late to recall it. Jim whistled softly.

They took a few steps through the
fast gathering twilight, and then Sage
broke the silence which she began to
feel unbearable.

LOganbe ry Growers Organize.

The growers of loganberries in the
districts OF Clear Lake, Lake Lsbish
and Brooks have formed an associa-
tion with headquarters at the latter
place, f0r the purpose Of disposing of
their crop of berries, at the best pos
sible prices and at the least loss to
themselves. Hon. A. M. La Follet,
an extensive grower of this luCious
berry, has been elected TO the posi-
ion of president of the organization
with A. NJ. Aspinwall as vice presi-
dent. The other officers have not yet
been filed.
One of the objects of the union Is
to watch the markets in the various
towns to which shipments are to be
made with view to regulating the
shipments to these places. The neces
sity for this was impressed upon the
growers last year when a surplus of
several hundred crates was forced up
on the Portland market in single
day, and we're ouly sold out mt q eat
cut in price. The work of the associ-
alton will be to see that each town
gets just the number of crates likely
to be sold each day.
The shipping qualities OF the logan
berry are being appreciated more
each year, the fruit having been ship
ped to New York in perfect condition
last yeal by the cold storage process,
and many crates we're shipped to Den.
yer without the aid of refrigerator
cars. Another advantage the growers
expect to derive from organization
will be the securing OF their berry
crates at Wholesale prices.
Several fruit raisers are now MAX
ing an experiment with the logsnber
ries in Hood River valley. If found
profitable, 1t may grow to become an
important industry. Growers in the
willamette valley calm to have net
ted as hgh as $500 pei acre last year.
