Mr. Ic Arthur 1m an authority on Oreffon froK ruphy and the map he describes will be of value to Oregoniana. As the result of co-operative field work between the United States geological survey and the United States army, topographic surveys of three quadrangles near the Oregon coast were completed during; 1921. These three quadrangles cover an area, of about 225 square miles each, and will be published as the Gardi ner. Karl and Mapleton sheets. In addition, the geological survey and the state of Oregon surveyed the Mount Angel sheet in the Willamette valley. All the work done on these four Rhefta was for publication on the scale of one inch to the mile, in three colors, with complete derails of tonoirraohv. streams, roads, trails and other features. Preliminary proofs will be available during the spring of 1922, and engraved sheets about a year later. No plans have as yet been made for field work dur ing 1922. During the past year the geological survey published several new quad rangle maps covering areas in Ore gon. These included Heceta Head and Siltcoos lake sheets on the coast and Cottage Grove sheet south of Kugene. In addition, three frag mentary sheets in the Willamette valley, Lebanon, Brownsville and Corvallis were issued to the public. All the sheets issued in 1921 were on the scale of one inch to the mile and may be obtained from geological sur vey agencies in Portland. Revised Editions Issued. As the result of efforts made by the Oregon geographic board and by the forest service, the geological sur vey has begun to issue revised edi tions of topographic maps originally issued several years ago. The new editions are not .absolutely up to date, but they include all new data that could be secured without extensive field work, and particularly new or changed names. Among the revised sheets issued are: Portland, Oregon City, Mount Hood, Blalock island, Eu gene, Grants lass, Ashland and Klamath. New issues of Hillsboro, Mount Hood and other sheets with additional data will be forthcoming In 1922. The geological survey now has on the press the Waldport, Kimlra and Monroe sheets, all of which will be ready for distribution in 1922. These are all new. During the past two years the United States coast and geodetic sur vey has done a great deal of impor tant field work in Oregon. The Utah Washington arc of triangulation ex tending from Salt Lake points near Portland has been completed and many important geographic features have been accurately located. The publication describing this arc and all the geographic points will soon be completed at Washington. The arc of precise triangultition from Mount Shasta in northern California to a po'nt near Nampa, Idaho, has also been completed and is now being prepared for publication. This arc will furnish geographic information covering a large number of points in. southeastern Oregon that have here tofore been but little known. These exact locations and elevations wUl soon be available. . Valuable Lines Completed. In addition to trianeulatlnn vnrb the geodetic survey has completed precise level lines of great accuracy from California through Oregon to fceattle along the Southern Pacific, from Portland to Fort Stevens, from Portland to Wallula. from Bend to Prinev'lle, and an extremely valu able line from Klamath Falls east ward through south central Oregon to Burns and thence to Ontario. This is the first time accurate government levels have connected these two points. The United States soil survey issued during the year an elaborate soil map of Yamhill county on a scale of an inch to the mile, with all im portant geographic features shown in colors. The Washington county and Josephine county maps have been completed in Washington and will be issued In 1922.

E. G. Adams of The Dalles Solves Problem That Has Hampered Farming Vpon Hills. Successful operation of farm trac tors on steep side hills, which has been extremely difficult in the past, seems assured if an invention of E. G. Adams of The Dalles proves practical. Mr. Adans and P. S. Flummer of The Dalles, who Is asso ciated with him, recently obtained a patent for the device, at Washing ton, D. C, and have been trying out the device in a practical way on a well known make of tractor on a hilly farm near The Dalles. The demonstrations are declared to have been highly successful. Most makes of tractors are not de signed to operate on steep side hills, and this fact has made development of tractor farming slow In many sections of Oregon, particularly in the northeastern grain belt where the country is Quite rolling and side hill work Is essential. The ordinary type of tractor, not fitted with any special device. Is thrown out of bal ance when operated on a side hill, and Is inclined to slide down hill or to tip over. The Adams attachment is designed to level up the tractor and bring it to a balanced position, no matter what the degree of steepness of the side hill upon which it is called to operate, within reasonable limits. The front axle Is composed of three bars and works on the principle of the parallelogram. The leveling is accomplished by a lever at the driv er's seat, which communicates with a drive shaft connected with the mo tor. The device is thus operated from power given by the motor and requires no effort on the part of the driver beyond operating the control By means of the control 'the driver can throw the balance of the tractor to one side or the other or maintain It level as desired, to conform with the land over which he is operating. Tfce device is so arranged that it can be engajred either when the trac tor Is Btanding still or when It Is in motion. The accompanying photograph shows a tractor equipped with the device at work on a side hill with an Incline of 41V4 per cent. A com pany has been formed known as the Adams Sidehill Tractor company, to handle the manufacture and market ing of the device. E TO BE HOMER DAVENPORT MEMO RIAL FTJSD SOUGHT. MILL TO BE REMODELED J.

Although during the Christ mas holiday season work on the Homer Davenport memorial fund has slackened perceptibly the committee has been steadily at work on plana to double its efforts at the beginning of the new year which will raise the remainder of the $2500, which Is the goal set; $1000 of this already has been raised. Besldee the amount eent in several encouraging letters have been received from interested friends outside of the state.

The letters in part state: '"Lest We Forget' was the title of one of Davenport's famous car toons that set in motion a wave ot justice that overwhelmed and blotted out a movement of mistaken persecu tion that at one time appeared on he deep of public opinion. We wi-h to invoke the spirit of this cartoon to a different subject its maker and urge that the old days, the old ad miration, the old associations, the old kindliness and the old good be not forgotten. "The Homer Davenport memorial fund, since its inception two months ago, has made some progress, sub scriptions at this date aggregating some over 1800. In the opinion of the committee, this should be called to your attention, as one of Daven port's admirers, together with the fact that it la the firm intention to erect a monument to his memory of the best character his friends care to provide. "Davenport's grave lies in Silver ton today unmarked. Wfll you join with others to remedy this condition and aid in the erection of a memorial worthy of his big-hearted life and his genius.''
