A change in the method of making road improvements In Clatsop County Is wanted by the members of the Clatsop County Grange Business Council. At a meeting of that body this afternoon a resolution to that end, reading as follows, was adopted: "Resolved. That we favor a change in the powers of the County Court to the end that supervision of the county roads shall be left entirely In the con trol of one man, he to be a competent roadbuilder. and that his salary shall be sufficient to provide for his entire time and energy. It l.s also requested that such official be under the super vision of the State Engineer." This resolution will be submitted to each of the individual granges in the county for adoption. The business council, at Its session today, adopted a motion directing the secretary to write to the various granges urging that those bodies take steps to Inves tigate the modes of scientific road building with a view of hastening the improvement of the public . highways. ' " The many, many years Gill's have served you at Third and Alder Strets have been marked by a steady increase in the. volume of business, transacted, and a like improvement in store service and methods. Just as the EXPANSION SALE is 'marking an epoch in Portland's merchandising annals, so will the new and greater Gill store estab lish a mile-post in the history of better. store service merchandising superiority and shop ping convenience. VeOcatpyTfc Were;fldii$IKi .Just as firmly as Gill Quality and Dependa bility have been imprinted on the public mind, has the Gill corner established itself as a land mark more prominent even than the names of the streets in which we are located.

Encouraged by the success of an ex periment this year, a large number of farmers owning Santlam River bottom land, about eight miles east of Albany, are planning to engage extensively In the cultivation of mint for commercial purposes next year. A net profit of 8137 per acre was obtained. A large number of acres in that part of the county will be devoted to this new industry. The experiments leading to this re sult began last Spring, when O. H. Todd, formerly of Michigan, selected Linn County as a desirable place for mint culture, and besides planting sev eral acres established a small distillery to extract the OIL Todd's mint was planted principally on prairie land and while a satisfactory yield was ob tained it did not do so well there as on bottom land. The yield realized on the farm of E. B. Wallace, Road Supervisor .of the Knox Butte district, shows that San tlam River bottom land is especially suitable for mint culture. Wallace planted one-fourth of an acre and from the mint he cut he distilled 12 pounds of oil. This oil sold for $3.60 per pound which made the gross re ceipts from the Quarter of an acre 142. At this rate an acre would yield S168. NAVAL MILITIA VOLUNTEER Seattle Division Would Take Gun boat Concord to San Francisco. SEATTLE, Sept. 13.

TWILIGHT ZONES BOTHER American Society Civil Engineers, Prompted by Oregon State En neer, Names Committee "to Draft National Bill. SALEM, Or., Sept. 30. (Special.) A special committee of engineers to, pre pare a National water law, dealing with Interstate and navigable streamB, and covering all uses of water, has just been appointed by the board of direction of the American Society of Civil Engi neers, according to a letter received by State Engineer Lewis from Charles Warren Hunt, secretary of the society. The committee is made up as follows: George G. Anderson, Denver, Col.; Charles W. Comstock, Denver, Col.; H. S Ferguson, New York City.: Clem ens Herschel, New York City; Robert E. Horton, Albany, N. Y.: John H. Lewis, Salem, Or.; Charles D. Marx, Stanford University, Cal.; F. H. Newell. Wash ington, D. C, and Gardner S. Williams, Ann Arbor, Mich. George F. Swain, president of the society, was authorized to designate the chairman of this com mittee. ' The August proceedings of this so ciety, just issued, shows that favorable action was taken upon a motion author izing the appointment of such commit tee, which was presented by State Engineer Lewis, of Oregon, at the so ciety meeting. May 7. This action is believed to be the di rect result of a paper on "State and National Water Laws," presented by State Engineer Lewis before the an nual convention of this society, held In Seattle last year, and a more detailed statement, occupying 40 pages in the monthly proceedings of the society for c. v. - 1017 Thin naner has been hcj iciiit-i . 1 - - discussed by 14 members in subsequent issues OI me prucecuiiiB3! ... paper with discussions has recently been printed in pamphlet form by the society. It contains 122 pages. The Dalles water power project and the Snake and Klamath River compli cations were cited, among others, as reasons why an interstate water boara should be created by Congress with power to handle those water matters which are beyond the jurisdiction ot the state water boards. The divided control In water matters between state and Nation was urged as a reason why some further legisla tion was necessary in order to eliminate the present twilight zone of uncertain authority. To promote immediate development, co-operation between the states and the Nation was offered as the most logical policy to pursue for bringing about this result. Eugene "Coffee Club" Praised. EUGENE.
