THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX, . PORTLAND, JULY 8, 1917. 13 HOOD CLIMB JULY 15 SCENES SHOWING CONTRAST IN LOTSAT EAST THIRTEENTH AND WEIDLER STREETS AND MAN WHO DID THE WORK. Mazamas' Outing Is Set to Follow N. E. A. Meeting. TRIP TO TAKE TWO DAYS Eldo Journeys Provided to Glaciers and Moraines While More Hardy Climbers Make War to Top of Peak. BY W. P. HAKDESTT, President of the Maiamaii, To one who first hears of the Ma nmai and their objects, the thought naturally occurs, have they climbed Mount Hood? The mountain Is so well known by name to all well-informed people, in this country at least, that It Is looked on as the representative of all mountains made to climb. To the inquiry suggested above It may be answered that the Mazamas have ascended Mount Hood a number -of times. Mainly for the benefit of the stranger and the person new to mountain-climbing does the organiza tion year after year put on an outing to this mountain. Although Hood Is but one In the extensive repertoire of mountains on the Mazama list, its sin gular beauty and nearness to Portland combine to . lure many repeatedly to make the ascent. The Mazamas made an expedition to Mount Hood during each of the last three Summers (in addition to the two weeks' annual outing to some other mountain). The attendance on these climbs has varied from about 80 to 240. The Mazama ehcyt outing to Mount Hood has always taken either two days or three days. The Fourth of July pe riod has been taken heretofore, thus utilizing the holiday along with, the nearest Sunday. Ascent Follows N. E. A. Convention. This year the outing will be taken Just at the close of the N. E. A. con vention, to give all of the visitors so inclined an opportunity to climb Ore gon's pride. Saturday and Sunday, July 14 and 15, will be taken by the trip. The itinerary is as follows: Leave Portland from the Union Depot at 7:40 A. M. Saturday over the O.-W. R, & N. line on a special train. Transfer at Hood River to train running to Park dale, the nearest railroad point. After lunch, take wagons filled with straw and ride to the beginning of the Sand Canyon trail, over which a walk of a mile or so will bring the party to the camp, Just below snow line. On Sunday the hikers will breakfast at 4 A. M. and soon afterward start for the summit, first being made up in separate squads or companies. A short time will be spent on the summit. After the descent to camp the members will hike down the trail to their wagons and. return to Parkdale. Here the la dies of the vicinity will serve dinner, which Includes Hood River strawber ries. The special train will leave soon after, reaching Portland the same even ing. The Mazamas have planned this trip with special reference to the require ments of the visitors, who may not be fully equipped for roughing It. For a small charge, fresh blankets with fir bough beds will be provided for those who do not have their own sleeping bags. For those who do not wish, to try the somewhat strenuous climb of the mountain itself, side trips to New ton Clark Glacier, Eliot Glacier, Bar rett's Spur and other points of interest will be taken on Sunday, while the companies toiling up the mountainside will be in plain view In this way a direct acquaintance with glaciers and their moraines will be made without climbing the peak. It may be worth noting that In North America glaciers are found only In the Pacific North' west ( Including Montana), in Canada and Alaska. Only one or two of the highest mountains of Colorado and Cal ifornia have glacier formations at all, and these are mere shells or relicts of glaciers. Registration for the Mazamas Mount Hood outing can be made at the Ma zama clubrooraa, 213 Northwestern Bank building, any day this week up until Friday evening. Full instructions as to details, the personal outfit re' quired, etc., will be given by the reg lstrar. Miss Harriet E. Monroe. DEFENSE DEVICE INVENTED Portland Structural Worker Patent on Machine. Seeks J. J. railey, structural steel worker and steeple Jack, has applied for a patent on a device which may be found valuable In coast or interior defenses. in a mounted searchlight and machine gun which would travel on a track surrounding a smokestack or any aerial. Mr. Dalley, who lives at the Hotel Del-Mae-Joe, 149 North Sixth street, has completed drawings for his patent and forwarded them to Washington The searchlight and machine gun would be adjusted to play at almost any angle. The operator would be protected by an armored encasement and the light and gun could be made to travel freely back and forth around the smokestack. One advantage in the device would be the large territory It would cover. Mr. Dailey's invention Is so designed that It could be erected on any steel, concrete or brick smokestack, gas holder, oil or water tank, bridge, wire less tower or specially-designed aerial J He also has plans for attaching it to the. top of ship spars. He .has re cently completed hypothetical specif! cations for an attachment to the Union Meat Company's smokestack, which rises about ISO feet.

Spraylna; Compound la Found That I Effective Forty Per Cent of Last Year's Crop Destroyed. OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COL LEGE, Corvallis. July 7; (Special.) Experiments for the control of the onion mildew are being conducted by the department of plant pathology at the Oregon Agricultural College with promising results. Professor Barss, of the plant path ology department, says onion mildew has been the greatest trouble against which onion men in the state have had to contend. In 1916 it is estimated that 40 per cent of the Oregon onion crop was lost on account of this disease. Although the cause of the disease was worked out years ago by Eastern experimenters, no consistently eftectiv method of control has been developed In the United States. Experiments undertaken this year at the experiment station at Corvallis have resulted in finding a spraying compound which, as far as the tests have been carried, has proved to be superior in many ways to materials heretofore tested. This compound is applied as a spray and shows unusual ability to spread and adhere on the onion foliage, thus overcoming one of the serious drawbacks of other fungi cides that have been suggested in the East. Co-operative experiments, in which this new compound is being given thorough trials, are being conducted in the Tualatin River Valley. Professor Barss says growers who experienced losses from onion mildew last year should get in touch with the experiment station, which will be glad to arrange for other tests by the grow ers themselves. What the final results may be cannot be predicted, since the first tests are Just under way. CIVIL WAR VETERAN DIES Great-Grandchildren Are at Funeral of Lincoln County Pioneer. NEWPORT.
