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

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.

A Drop On a '
Touchy Corn
Instant relief! Then corn or
callus lifts off with fingers.
Just think! You can lift
off any corn or callus with
out one twinge of pain.
A Cincinnati man discov
ered this ether compound
and named it freesone. Any
druggist wili sell a tiny
bottle of freezone for ml
very little cost. You apply
a few drops directly upon
a tender corn or callus. In
stantly the soreness disap
pears, then shortly you will
find the corn or callus so
loose that you can lift it
right off.
Freeione is wondenful. It
dries instantly. It doestY t
eat away the corn or callos,
but shrivels it up without
even irritating the skin.
Hard corns, soft corns or
corns between the toes, as
well as panful calluses, lift
riprht off. There is no pain
before or afterwards. No
soreness or smarting. Wom
en should keep a tiny bot
tle on the dresser and never
let a corn ache twice.
