Oregon Spring.

(By Eleanor Daily, Medford, Ore.)
Out from the mountain country we
darted down and up and down-on
the way to the valley. Up, up, and
behold! on this side of the mountain
was spring. "It is spring" buZZed
the bees, croaked the frogs, lowed the
grazing kline. The pines whispered
it; and we knew it from the fresh.
earthly odor of green growing things
On we went past farmsteads with
old-fashioned, honey, log-cabin
houses; past barnyards where cackled
hens and grunted mother pigs to
squealing broods of young; past green
pastures where frolicked playful
calves and whinnied mares to awk-
ward colts nosing between bars OF
moss-covered rail fences.
An old-fashioned country church,
surrounded by hosts of blossomy fruit
trees, hove to view. The broken win
dow panes, the tumble-down porch,
and a glance through the open door
way showed us it was a deserted
temple Of God, tho the old bell still
hung in the belfry tower-for all the
world like Goldsmith's Deserted Viii
lage" church.
A sudden turn in the road, and
there in all it's splendor, against a
background of azure blue, seemingly
in our very path, stood majestic MT
IMcLoughlin with its garment OF
snowy white and pearls shimmerins
in the morning sun; and as tho divin-
ing our thoughts that we could
stretch forth hand and-it eluded
our grasp and remained just beyond
and beyond.
The air vibrated with the myriads
of melodious bird voices singing as
tho their little throats would burst
Robins on every side chirped, Cheer
up. cheer up, derie;" meadow larks
pealed forth their flute-like tones and
bugle notes; mountain quail, from
sheer ecstacy of content, called tc
their mates, Lets stay right here;
lest's stay right here;" and pine sis
kins, perched on the topmost tips OF
pines. carroled forth glad hymns tc
their Maker.
We reached Rogue river, and as VIC
crossed Bybee bridge a salmon trout
splashing about in the ripping wa
ters. leaped above for an instant as
tho desirous Of taking part in the
joyful earth festivities.
On we sped, past Towering mead
ows fragrant with wild perfume, pas
fields of growing grain and pink an,
white redolent orchard-all the while
maintaining a view of the maJesti'
mountain. And on till we reached
the Pacific Highway-oh! what
glorious ride on the shining, smooth
paved road, with the spring breez'
tanning our faces
We were not the only ones en1oyin'
the mornings outing, for we met an
passed wagon teams. one-horse car
riages and autos whose occupant
wore happy, smiling faces. Some wer

age and how business men can best
help relieve 1t.
Business men throughout the state
are anxious to do all in their power
to facilitate the war work, and have
proposed to close their places of busi-
ness one or even two days a week.
But the one days farm work in seven
would seriously interfere with a
clerks efficiency in his regular en-
ployment without adding much II
anything on the farm. His muscles
would be weak and flabby and he
would scarcely recover from the
shock of one days labor until he
would undertake another. Besides,
farm work must be carried on every
day.
1t is pointed out that most country
stores could be run successfully with
the manager and women assistants,
releasing a vast number Of men to
work in the lumber camps, spruce
mills and on the farms. The painful
breaking in would be over in a week
or so, and the men would be able to
do full days work every day. BE
Sides" the doctor quantity observes,
six months or year spent in this
way would do wonders for the aver
age store clerk"
Every patriotic community should
mobilize its labor" he concludes
"The street corner loafer, the pool
room bum. the clerk who can be
spared, and the retired farmer in
good health should be compelled by
force of public opinion to get into the
industries essential to the successful
prosecution Of the war;"

and rearranged in the west, we would
have the following approximation In
respect to areas:
Texas would be. Austro-H Hungary
Wyoming and Colorado would be
Germany's equivalent.
South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas
and Oklahoma would embrace Nor
way and Sweden.
Montana and North Dakota would
represent Spain and Portugal.
Nevada and Utah would contain
France.
Idaho would contain Switzerland,
Greece, Denmark and Holland.
Arizona would take in all of Italy.
New Mexico would be occupied by
the British Isles.
California would alone carry Rou-
mania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Serbia,
Albania, Belgium and European Tur-
key.
For an, equivalent area of Oregon
and Washington we should have to go
to Asia. Japan would just about fit.
The area of all the European
countries named, with Japan added.
is about 5000 square miles greater
than the area of western United
States. The overlap would be little
larger than the area Of Douglas
county.
The population Of the seventeen
western states is 16, ,42S,625. The
population of Europe, excluding Rus
sia's and adding Japan's to accord
with the foregoing illustrations, is
3O7,974,7S6.
There will probably come a day
when as many people will reside in
western United States, but they will
not be of the multiplicity of races,
tongues and aspirations such as now
characterize Europe. Our security Is
in our unity, present and prospective.

Standard Cars Used
BY Ordnance Dept.

Among the standard motor vehicles
being provided by the ordnance de-
partment are the following:
The ammunition truck, which has
steel body designed to accommo-
date packing boxes of any type of am
munition mounted ON a four-wheel
drive truck chassis. The equipment
repair truck, making use of the same
type of chassis, has bins and drawers
for spare parts and material for re-
pairing personnel equipment, rifles
and machine guns, leather equip
ment ,etc.
The artillery repair truck has a
four-wheel drive chassis and a small
machine-shop body with equipment
consisting Of lathe, drill press,
bench grinder, electric drill, welding
outfit, air riveting hammer, milling
attachment, blacksmith outfit and
other tools. Electric power is sup
piled by a gasoline-driven generator
The 2h ton artillery tractor
weighs about 5000 pounds and is
capable of making IL miles an hour
under favorable road conditions. The
5-ton artillery tractor, weighing
5000 pounds and capable of speed
of 6 miles an hour, will handle a
load of 10000 pounds. 1t is intend
ed for use with 4.7-inch gun and
6-inch howitzer material. A load of
5000 pounds is the maximum for
the lotion artillery tractor, which
will make about 4 " miles an hour
on high speed.
The 15-ton artillery tractor and
the 120-horsepower artillery tractor
will be supplied in limited numbers.
They are of the track-laying type SIM
liar to those used by the French and
British governments and are for
heavy loads which are not subdivided
for transportation.
Other standard motor equipment
consists of the reel and fire-control
truck with a four-wheel drive truck
chassis and rear wheels replaced by
caterpillar trucks; reconnaissance
car, a 1-ton truck capable of speed
of from 80 to 40 miles an hour; the
light repair truck, weighing about
2,400 pounds; the l " ton trailer for
anti-aricraft guns; the 3-inch field
gun trailer, which is utilized for haul
ing ammunition as well as the S-inch-
gun material.
Tanks and other armored land We
hicles are designed, procured and
maintained by the ordnance depart
ment.
There has been constant effort to
keep the variety of vehicles and parts
to a minimum. Only one size of tire
is used on all the heavier trucks and
trailers, this size also being used on
similar vehicles by the quartermaster
corps, signal corps and engineers
The same magnetic is used on all
types of ordnance vehicles. All types
of ordnance truck bodies are inter-
changeable on all truck chassis issued
to the artillery.

Interesting Lesson
In War Geography

In the western country of great
distances and scant population one
can gain better idea of the concen-
tration of wars activities from the
statement that France is approx
mately the size of Nevada and Utah
combined. Oregon troops, scattered
throughout France, are not very far
from each other as we reckon dis
tances, nor have they been SO very
lar from the battle line by the same
computation.
There are other striking compari-
sons that shed light on the restrict
ed character of the populations of Eur
