Reclamation Service

Drainage work continued during
the month of August with draglines
and one structure crew. Weather
conditions were favorable and
plenty of American citizens available
for carrying on the work. AT one
time during the month five of the
draglines were in process of moving
and several other delays were oc-
easioned for the purpose of making
necessary repairs. 225,S49 cubic
yards of material were excavated
and 4.97 miles of drains completed.

BY MELVIN HALL

One of the most beautiful scenic
attractions in the state of Oregon is
within less than an hours drive from
the center of Pendleton. Local mo-
torists have been itching for several
weeks TO get up Cabbage hill. but the
road was block with snow. Last Sun
day few ventured up the Old Oregon
Trail and reported that the road was
passable. Now there is only two small
patches of snow between Pendleton
and the end of the grayeled road 2l q
miles from Pendleton.. and these do
not interfer with traffic. 4
The route is lined with wild flow
ers. which make the trip well worth
while not taking the wonderful view
of the Umatilla county wheat fields
into consideration. Grass widows,
Dog tooth violets, wild sun flowers and
butter cups are found in abundance
from the time the foot of the hill is
reached until the summit is passed
Natures flower garden extends for
miles and contains an almost mex
haustable supply of flowers.
Mneub. tIcluS seen
If anyone wants 10 see 10 million
bushels of wheat coming up out of
the ground they should take a couple
of hours and make the trip up Cab
bage hill. Nothing could be more
meautiful than the wheat fields of
Umatilla county spread ont in one
monster panorama below. The fields
appear as a checker board with green
and plowed fields alternated
As the summit is approached small
patches of snow are found in the re-
vines and shaded places on the hills.
The snow is fast melting and will not
last more than one or two weeks long
er. .
The road is in good condition all of
the way to the end of the grade. The
writer made the trip during the week
with DR.. S. L. Kennard, Pendleton dis
tributor for ther~Willys- knight ma
chine. The car which was a touring
car model of WHY'S Knight, made the
climb with ease and was able to pick

grade. The engine did not get any
warmer than 1t would on am ordinary

DODGE BROTHERS
CHIEFS ADVANCE

Several important changes in the
executive personnel are announced by
Dodge Brothers. c. W. Matheson has
been advanced from general sales
manager to vice-president In charge
of sales; John A. Nichols, Jr., promot-
cd from director of field operations TO
general sales manager; John II. Cor
don. from New York district represen-
tative to director of distribution. Mr..
Gordon succeeds ]. T.. French. who
resigned to take over the Dodge
brothers leadership In San Francisco,
where he maintained his headquarters
for several years as Dodge Brothers
district representative.
Mr.. Matheson, the new Sice.presi-
dent has been an important figure in
the automobile industry for many
years. With his brother, Frank
Matheson he built and marketed one
of the first higher priced cars in the
field. When Dodge Brothers began
manufactturmg a car of their own he
became New York district represen-
tative and few years later was ad-
vanced to the home office as director
of service. His appointment as gen.
eral sales manager followed In 1890.
Mr.. Nichols, the new general sales
manager, has also been on tho execu-
tive staff of Dodge Brothers from the
time they first began building cars.
He was for five years Seattle district
representative. then was advanced to
the New York office. II was from the
latter post that he was called, in jan
nary OF the present year. to become
director OF field operations.
Mr.. Gordons first appointment with
Dodge Brothers also dates back to

VISALIA, Cal, May 6.-According

cally dry, are threatened with inun-

event fortunes, made last season by

The. grain men have been warned
that the Kern River watershed may
be expected to furnish more water
this season than can be used foc irri-

areas between the railroads lines anC
The cities, which the motor car and
good roads have opened up, that most
spectacular development in new
building should take place!
IF you are interested in real
estate the situation demands actionl
II means that if you want to buy de-
sirable suburban land near any good
city at present low prices, you will
have TO go about il at once. In Sc
Letting such property, a good plan
usually is TO follow out the best
residential street and buy where land
begins to sell by the acre instead OF
by the foot On the other hand, il
you own city dwelling house property
which cannot be converted to bust
ness uses, the quicker you get rid of
it the better. This does not apply
to business buildings nor to property
which will soon be in demand as the
business section of the city expands
1t does apply to other city dwelling
houses for which such extravagant
rents are now demanded. Remember
that while the readjustment in in
dustry is well along, the readjust-
ment in real estate values has only
begun.
"Some may ask why industry does
not move to the country? Before
many years have passed we probably
shall see strong tendency in that
direction. Many businesses can be
carried on in the country far more
efficiently than in the city. This idea
that all offices and factories must be
located in the population centers is
simply notion handed down thru
generations. In the old days in
dustry was confined to the city and
the country was left for agriculture.
That was before the age of modern
transportation. OF course, it must
continue true in the case of distribut-
ing houses. Wholesalers, jobbers,
merchants, etc, who group together
according to their industry in a
certain part of the city greatly facil-
itate buying.
Manufacturers, however, find bet
ter labor conditions, lower rents and
better power in the country. Hence,
would not dispute the point with
anyone that business eventually may
tend toward the suburban sites. For
the present, however," concluded Mr..
Babson, "the main movement will be
confined to the buying of country
residences. Those who are planning
eventually to own a country home
get busy at once, for every week you
delay is likely to cost you money!"

Weighing, Measuring
Has Practical Value

Quite a furore has been aroused in
Michigan, as elsewhere, by recent
articles in The Outlook in which Mr.
c. X. Taylor asserted that weighing
and measuring school children and
grading them physically on that
basis was a delusion. Mr.. Taylor as
serted that some children are natur-
ally underweight and some are
naturally overweight. He claims
therefore that these tests had no val
ne, and as result much work in
this line stood to be discredited.
1t is of course true, declares the
Michigan tuberculosis Association,
that some children are naturally
underweight and some naturally
overweight, and that hence the
weight and height test is not an alb
solute index to good or bad health.
But the tests have tremendous
value none the less. The ideal way
would be to have an adequate health
taking each individual case separate
ly; but under present conditions that
is not possible. There are very few
schools where there is provision for
such examination, and weighing and
measuring pupils is the next best
thing, for the present.
This system at least shows rough
ly which pupils need a physical ex-
animation most. The Detroit De-
partment of health thinks that about
ten percent would fall in this broup,
and the emphasis of the school ply
stefan can then be concentrated on
them.
The system is inadequate, but il
is better than nothing. What all
persons who are interested in the
health of the coming generation
should work for is an adequate sys-
tenn of medical examination in the
schools. But till that comes, the
other test has great practical value
