deadlock ami result ill sweeping
rnnflai-ialions before which human
effort is powerless. .Vhnh depends
on piiblle i'o-on'niliou throuiill ex
Ireme rare Willi lire, for the forces
are in no position to cope with new
attacks. Over much of the territory
government and stale antliorille.;
are refusing rrampfire pe-mita. In
Washington the governor Is endeav
oring to stop logging operations
temporarily. (everywhere the fire
laws are being rigorously oarorced.
70 convictions being already report
ed. Vi' to'.the pteient lime, how
ever, heavy timber losses have been
successfully preventd by the extra
ordinary efforts of private, stale
and fo-Jorai forced which have ful
ly 311(10 trained fire-lighters and
palrolmen in the western states be
sides a fluctuating army of employ
ed help.
The situation Is -worst In Wash
ington, where although there has
been no groat loss of merchantable
timber and that of second-growth
has been exaggerated, the damage to
other property has been more than
In any previous year and the fires
are continually breaking from con
trol to cause great difficulty In re-
surrounding them. Hundreds ol
miles of trenches have been built
and rebuilt. In Stevens county the
situation Is particularly troublesome
because of wind.
The worst Tires :n Oregon have
been In the northwestern counties
where large ureas of cut-over laud
have been swept and the loss of
logs and equipment has been heavy.
Probably most of the green .tim
ber Injured will be salvaged. These
fires nro now under control, but
by (no means beyond great .danger
should wind arise. In eastern and
southern Oregon It is very dry an. I
the lookout.! are hampered by smoke
from llio north, but the situation
is still in hand. There lias been
llltle bad fire. Thorughout Oregon
considerable aid Is being given by
airplane scouting furnished by the
army.

It has been proved that as much as 20 of the
power delivered to the driving wheels may be
lost through friction, due to the use of an incor
rect oil.
This friction may be of two ltinda the friction
of metal on metal, due to the failure of the oil
to preserve a lubricating film between the bear
ing surfaces, or the friction of oil on o7 the
internal, molecular friction of the lubricant.
Too heavy an' oil, or an oil lacking in "oiliness"
the quality that makes it cling to the bearings
while at the same time offering a minimum of
internal or fluid friction constitutes a direct
drain on the available hoisepower of your
motor. , '
