DAIRY COWS NEEDED.
Belleview Growers Association
; Finds Sixty Needed.

]. r. Pittinger, who was selected
nv the Belleview Growers Associa-
tion-at their meeting in conjunction
with the Commercial Club some
weeks ago-to canvass the upper val
ley for the purpose of discovering
how many dairy cows might be sold,
has completed his canvass and reports
that he finds market for sixty good
cows among the various small ranch
ers between Talent and Neil Creek.
1t is probable that the matter Of i'm
porting enough first-class cows to
supply the demand will now be taken
up. This has been done in many To-
calities of Eastern Oregon where the
scheme is backed by individuals of
means or by banks-it being a well
known fact that good dairy COW is
an investment which soon pays

STRENGTH OF HUMAN BONES.
More Powerful In Some Ways Than
the Stanehest Oak.

tne Stancnest Oak
Human bones are really tremen-
dously strong and possessed of mar
velous resisting power. Indeed. the
bones Of the fairest, most delicate
looking woman are stronger than the
strongest oak.
OF course bone is hollow, and that
is one of the chief reasons it resists
such extreme weights. For instance.
a small bone which is no more than
square milllmeter in diameter will hold
in suspension without breaking some
thirty-tive pounds. while stick of best
oak of similar width will not hold
more than twenty pounds. Indeed,
the average bone Of the average man
is stronger by one half than that of
solid oak.
The principle on which our bones are
constructed, being made hollow and
consequently stronger than IL they
were solid and heavier, is the same
mechanics have followed the world
over Constructive engineers employ
tubes instead of solid cylinders.
In the case of animals thousands of
years ago one reason of their bulky
frame is attributed by scientists as
due to the fact their bones were solid
and added to their weight.-Chicago
Tribune.

AVIATION TAKES NERVE.
And When That Is Lost the Aeronaut
Should Fly No More.

Should Fly No More.
He who flies constantly must look to
one personal risk. which may vary
according to the characteristics of the
individual. This is the danger a man
may incur by becoming a little care
less while in the air. There is the
possibility, in fact, that familiarity
may breed not actual contempt, but
IL temporary relaxation of vigilance
and plotting an aeroplane needs such
watchfulness. such minute precision,
that any "staleneSs" on the part of
the man at the wheel or lever repre-
sents a peril that is very real.
The pilot who flies a great deal
should remind himself constantly that
there is no room for error in the
handling of aircraft.
A loss of confidence not difficult to
understand is suffered by an air man
sometimes after he has been the victim
Of a serious fall. and in similar cir
cumstances a jockey, or, say, a racing
motorist. may be robbed of nerve.
When pilot does lose Judgment as
the outcome of a bad mishap his
wisest course is to cease to fly. With
a broken nerve he is a menace to
himself and to others as well.-Claude
Grahame White in National Review.

LAWRIE RETURNS HOME
Chairman Bureau of Mines and Ge-
OlOgy Tells of Trip TO South
ern Oregon.

Portland, Aug. 1S.-H. n. Lawrie,
chairman of the Oregon Bureau of
Mines and Geology, created by the
last legislature to gather informa-
tion pertaining to the mineral re-
sources of Oregon and their develop
ment, has just returned from a trip
through southern Oregon, on which
he consulted with the mining COM
mittees of the commercial clubs of
Ashland, Medford, Grants Pass, Rose
burg and Albany. He discussed with
these committees the status of min
ing development in their respective
communities.
One result of the trip, Mr.. Lawrie
said, will be to increase greatly the
efficiency of the field work directed
by the bureau and to make it easier
to adapt it to the especial economic
needs of the different communities.
Mr.. Lawrie said that a party led
by DR.. Alexander Winchell has fin
ished preliminary geological recon-
Nuisance for the bureau from the
California line to the Grants Pass
section. 1t is now operating from
the latter point as a center. Some
interesting data have been collected
by this party, particularly in eXami-
nations of limestone and shale.
"The deposit on Cheney creek, II
miles from Grants Pass, on the sur
vey of the proposed railway from
there to Crescent City, has unlimited
volume for the production of ce-
ment," declared Mr. Lawrie. "The
surface outcrop shows it to be of
high grade lime content. Farmers
and orchardists nearby are appeal
ing to the owners of this property to
supply them with pulverized lime
from it. At present the property is
idle.
"On Williams creek there is an
other quarry of lime rock awaiting
development. When it is worked it
should produce some of the most
beautiful of decorative marble.
"The Sterling placer mine out
from Medford, which has been
worked out under the old ditch line,
is now in the hands of heavy capital.
It is being equipped with centrifugal
pumps to increase the hydraulic
head. A large yardage will be
worked under this system.
"The Oriole gold mine, in which |
here is more than mile of under
ground workings, is now installing a
mill. This is near Grants Pass. 1t
IS expected to be heavy producer.
"The Permission granite near Ash
and is an excellent stone. 1t was
pleasing to note that it has been |
lsed in many of the Ashland build
ngs. Civic pride and public con-
.racts will sustain a quarry, but |
where these are lacking it is not eco
lomical enough in production. There |
S not enough business to reduce the |
overhead charges.
"At Gold Ray, near Medford,
here is also an excellent granite"
The commission now is at work on
a relief map of Oregon which is in
tended to show the mineral develop
ment in every locality. Professor
Shedd is compiling the data required |
IN making this map.
Mr.. Lawrie said that the projected |
railway from Grants Pass to Cr
City will open up vast metal ore
production and that a smelter un-
loubtedly will be located near Cres-
cent City.

The Caucasian., 1913-08-21
Beino Held for Misceaenation.

There is being held in Denver,
Colo, woman, Nora Harrington
Frazer, who is charged with misce-
genation. On an application for a
license to marry a coal black negro,
which was refused, the woman was
arrested. Her defense is that she is
an octoroon and insists that some Of
her blood be drawn and anaiyzed.
The African taint, if in the blood,
can never be eradicated. If a per-
son has only one-sixteenth Of the
trace Of the negro it is not Of the
Caucasian race, but an African by
descent and a negro, whether black
as tar or yellow or white of skin.
In this case the woman being an oc-
toroon should be sufficient proof
that she is not white and should be
permitted to marry the negro of her
choice.
