The Redwood Falls Gazette recently
reported a wedding week before 1t
occurred and has been kept busy ever
since explaining matters. The Incl

of the time. number of years ago
when the Region recorded birth
three days too soon. Our enterprise
in giving readers news ahead of time
did not meet with the appreciation
it deserved, and we can sympathize
with the Gazette in it's present posi-

how faithfully they may have served

jealous of each other, as they all want

Company's Work

MONTEsANO. March 25.-J. T.
Carberry and wife and J. Richard
Masser. who own small farm and
poultry ranch east Of Montesano

have started suit for $500 damages
against E. H. Lester, who operates q
logging camp on lands east of Mon.

Lumber company.
According to the complaint there
is a small creek or brook running
through the Carberry place, which
has been used for stock purposes, and
the low lands along which has been
the richest soil on the place. In the
timber section above the farm, Les.
ter built a splash dam across the
creek and made big pond As a re.
suit the water Is black and unfit for
use. Also occasionally the water Is
let loose in great volume for the
splash and has done considerable
damage to the garden lands of the
farm and has flooded an incubator

AUTO TRUCKS
FOR CRAWLING
County Commissioners Con.
ider Purchase Of Equip
ment to Save Expense

MONTESANO. March 25-The coun.
" commissioners are considering se-
Fiously the advisability Of investing in
heavy auto truck for road gravehng
purposes.
Gravel hauling by teams, when the
haul is Of much length. is costly. It
is costly under any condition, but
there are great claims made for the
auto trucks. Teams hauling yard
and half four miles on the Olympic
highway are said to be doing pretty
good days work when they make two
trips day, and they cost $6 day.
State Engineer Ege states contract
or, who took lot of graveling work
near Portland on team basis, sublet
the work to auto trucks and the trucks
are making from $40 to $50 a day
gross on the work.
Some of these trucks would haul
two yards or more Of gravel an hour
with such load. However. it is ex.
planned there should be pretty steady
work for such machine to make, it a
paying investment as the interest
charges alone would run up close to 81
. day and there would be deprecia.
tion charges besides.

0REGON0IRO
Is VALUELESS
US. Geological Survey Finds
Indications Near Coast
Mean Nothing

The general similarity In the form
and position along the Pacific ocean
Of the coast ranges :of Oregon to the
oil-bearing regions Of California has
led many people to believe that oil
may occur in commercial quantity in
western Oregon. However, accord
ing to the report of reconnaissance
Of that region by C. w. Washburne
a geologist Of the United States geo.
logical survey, the chance Of getting
oil in commercial quantity there is
very slight indeed.
In some places in western Oregon
the rocks contain tiny globules Of oil,
and in others they are cut by veins
Of solid, brittle oil residue, but no.
where is liquid oil known to seep out
at the surface. The solid residues
indicate only that oil was at one. time
present in the rocks, but it does not
necessarily mean that oil occurs in
quantity in the rocks at the present
time.
The absence of oil seeps is the most
, discouraging feature in this field, for
the rocks are SO broken that 1t seems
highly improbable that much oil
could occur in them and still not
leak out at the surface and form
seeps. The possibility Of obtaining
oil by drilling is regarded as slightly
favorable in a few places in Coos.
Douglas, Lincoln. and Lane counties,
but even there the chances are not
good.
Seeps of oil have been. reported In
practically every county in western
Oregon. but most of the material de-
scribed as oil proved on investiga-
ton to be only iron oxide, q sub
stance which when present in water
in minute amounts forms an rides
cent scum that looks very much like
an oil aim. A sg (,
One Of the so-called indications Of
petroleum in which certain oil men

have placed much faith is the Neha-
lem beeswax. which 10 found in the
beach sands just north Of the en-
trance to sNshaiem Bay. This mater

the chemists who first. examined 1t.
Not Petroleum.
This wax IL. however, clearly not
in any way related to petroleum. for

BULLETIN DEALS
With WOOD Y ;! !! ] PIPE r !;
U. S. Department Of Agri-
culture Issues Results Of
Country Wide Study

PORTLAND. March 25.-The Dis
trict forester here announces that the
United States department Of agricul-
ture has just issued a bulletin (No.
1867 covering the results Of a coun-
try-wide study of wooden pipe. This
study was undertaken by the Office
Of experiment stations and has
brought out interesting facts in re-
gard to use and care of this kind
Of pipe for irrigation.
The capital invested in wood pipe
in the United States amounts to many
millions, and any information which
will help to protect or increase the
value of such an investment is worth
seeking The government has in
spected pipe lines in various parts
of the country, has corresponded with
manufacturers, builders and poerators
of wood pipe, and has consulted engi-
neers, managers Of water works, irri-
cation systems, power companies-all
for data on continuous stave pipe and
machine banded pipe.
The report brings out such facts as
the adaptability Of certain types Of
pipe for certain conditions, best kinds
Of wood for the purpose. plans for in.
take and outlet, experiments with
blow-offs, when combination with con.
crete or steel is advisable. when 1t is
best to cradle the pipe, how to choose
location, methods Of construction. re.
lation Of the pipe to hydraulic gradient
and many other factors which have
a bearing upon the success Of a pipe
line.
OF the several woods used in the
construction Of wooden pipes, redwood
in the past, has been given preference:
but Douglas fir now 10 used much
more extensively than redwood. The
fir is less durable than the redwood
under favorable conditions. but it has
been found az good in other respects
and costs materially less. Opinions
differ as to the length Of service Of
such pipe. and no definite conclusions
have been reached; but the report
brings out very plainly that local con-
.ditions. method Of construction and
maintenance are factors which have
strong influence upon the life Of wood
pipe. 1910

est service is carrying on q similar
