AUTO TRUCK RIG HELP
 TO FEDERAL SURVEYORS

C. " Hodgson of the Coast and Geodetfc Survey, Department of Com rnerces has recently left Washington for the southwestern part of the Unit ed States, where he will begin with a. party of surveyors to determine the astronorni latitude of triang ula.tion stations established by the Coast and Geodetic Survey and the United States Geological Survey between Barstow. Tex. and the Pacific Ocean. Many of the stations are on mountains 10.- 900 feet highs and the results of the work will be used in determination sof the shape of the earth and the distribution of material in It's crust.
 Several experiments nave been made in methods of transporting such surveying parties over mountainous country with their heavy loads and scientific instruments which must be kept in delicate adjustment, and as a result the vehicle which will be the home and the means of transportation of the party will be a one and one half ton fautomobile truck
 It is estimated that the cost will be less than oneehalf of what it was | in the days when horses and wagons had to be used for transportation. In
 addition to this, the great difficulty of transporting water ana forage for stock, which was always a stumbling block, will be removed in this expedi- ton. which traverses region that for the most part is arid or semf-arid. The chief limitation in the use ot the truck for transportation of Cow
 ernment survey parties lies in it's
 weight, which is the reason a truck
 of the lighter class will be used. Ii
 has been found that green poles 1 should be carried in front of the dual tired rear wheels in passing through deep sand or mud, and the truck vii l also have to carry heavy blanks fol
 reinforcing weak bridges.
 ls For use in mud or sane lne dual ltired wheels have been found to pos sess an advantage over the single Ftired ones, but in the deeply ruttet prairie roads the d ual tires were ofter found to bind and wedge in the ruts
 so that it was necessary to take to tn. prairie beside the road. For a slxit chain heavy, close-linked, rathe e, | fiat chain about seventeen feet lon, | will be used. This will be wount
 about six times around the rims ant tires of each rear wheel, and the end fastened with heavy buckIed strap | by which the slack can be taken LID.

 Enthusiastic applause, the news sto- ries say, greeted the governors dec laration in his speech at the Charles town prison on Sunday, that if it should become his duty to call for vol unteers prepared to give their lives in defense of their country and flag in a foreign land, he did not believe that any body of men in the state would be more willing to respond than the prisoners-were it possible for them to do so. However thunderous the cheering, it is hardly to be taken as a measure of the patriotism of the audience. Jesse Pomeroy would un- doubtedly prefer to be at Vera Cruz in an army tent to his confined guar ters at Cherry Hill.
 Some of the men within the gray walls of the state prison are. no doubt better than some of us who have never sat inside the prisoners dock but neither purity mgr patriotism was necessary to make them show patriot ism over the thought of being out o1 Sail. That is their present object ir life.
