WATER RESOURCES OF THE NORTHWEST The United States Geological Sur vey has recently issued a valuable publication concerning the surface water resources of the northwestern portion of the United States, the greater part of which is occupied by the basin of the Columbia river. This river has a drainage area of 259,000 square miles. Its source is in Brit ish Columbia and its basin occupies enormous arean in that province and in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Wash ington, Oregon and Nevada. The re gion is one of great interest and value. . Few river basins in the coun try are so diverse. It contains some of the highest peaks in America and some of the most fertile valleys in the woTld. Some' idea of the resources of the basin may be had from the statement that the navigable waters of the Co lumbia and its tributaries aggregate a length of 2,136 miles. The climate exhibits all the variations from the rigor of the northern latitude to the mildness of western Oregon and Washington. Agriculturally the area ranges from the extremely arid re gion, where irrigation is essential, through the semi-arid country, where dry farming and Irrigation are prac ticed side by side, to the humid coun try, which, strictly speaking, is arid during the Bummer. The values of the irrigated agricultural land range from about $30 an acre for the poor est to $3,000 an acre for the Inten sively cultivated orchards. Within the Columbia river drainage basin are at least one-third of the available water powers in the United States, but development of this resource has scarcely begun. The study of the water resources of the great region as carried on by the United States Geological Survey becomes therefore a matter of im portance and interest. Water Supply Paper 312, of the Survey, which has recently been Issued, contains a large amount of useful data resulting from the investigations of the streams ol this area, Including the records of flow of the numerous large tribu taries as well as the main rivers. Among these tributaries are Clark Fork, which occupies large areas in Idaho, Montana and British Colum bia, and Snake river, which has its origin in the Yellowstone Park re gion of Wyoming, traverses the southern portion of Idaho, and on its way drains large areas in Nevada. For a part of its course the Snake forms the boundary between Idaho and Oregon, and it traverses long dis tances in the state of Oregon before it finally joins the parent stream. In addition to stream-flow data concern ing the Columbia, the report contains information concerning the water re sources of the coastal streams, such as the Rogue, Umpqua and Siletz, lo cated in Oregon, and the Cedar, Skagit and Cascade, which drain into Puget Sound. The observations of stream flow presented In this report consist of . records obtained at 207 stations. About one-half of the ex pense of the work is borne by the states of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana, which, under the au thority of laws enacted by the several legislatures, co-operate with the United States Geological Survey in carrying on the work. A copy of Water Supply Paper 312 may be had free on application to the Director of the United States Geo logical Survey, Washington, D. C. Interiirban Autocar Co. Between Ashland, Talent.

There is a regular menagerie on exhibition these nights when the clouds clear away and any one who wants a bit of educational entertain ment can obtain it by looking for the Dragon, Leo, Ursa Minor and I'rsa Major, all of them splashing around up above in fine style. One of the most unique constella tions, and one which you will have to bend your neck to follow, Is old Draco, alias the Dragon. The ama teur star gazer can get on the trail of this animal by first seizing his tail. The end sun in the tail of the Drawn is Lambda, by name, and you can locate this spot of light by the "pointers' in the big dipper. I.aniba loafs In a spot between the "pointers" and the North star, and you can't miss it. From this tail the Dragon twists and turns -and squirms through the firmament like a hot Wienerwurst being fried. Its suns, In order, are Kappa, Alpha, Iota, Thcta, Mu, Zeta, and then you get to the jaws. Having passed through the Greek letter societies, the Jaws are formed from the triangular stars of XI. Gamma and Betta. The open jaws look as though they want to bite a chunk out of Hercules. And by way of information, the star Alpha, the third sun from the end of the tall, was once upon a time the North star, occupying the same place that Polaris is doing at present. The Big Gray Car New Wall Map of Alaska. A new wall map of Alaska has just been Issued by the United States Geo logical Survey. This map Is on a scale of 23.7 miles to 1 Inch (1:1, 500,000) and measures 82 by 55 inches. It is printed in two colors, the oceans, large rivers and lakes be ing In blue and the other features in black. The relief Is not shown, but the location of the principal moun tains is Indicated. This map is based on the most reliable data available, gleaned from the maps of the United States Geological Survey. This or ganization began its systematic sur vey of the territory eighteen years ago and in this time has mapped about 150,000 square miles, or over 25 per cent of the total area of Alas ka (586,400 square miles). The shore line of the new map is largely taken from the charts of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, and full use has also been made of the maps of the International Boundary Commission, the War Department and other gov ernment organizations. In lack of better Information concerning some regions use has also been made of the work of early exploring expedi tions and the reports of prospectors and traders. Information which is not very exact is indicated by broken lines. The largest unstirveyed areas in Alaska lie in the drainage basins of the rivers flowing northward to the Arctic ocean. This region is so in accessible as to be of small commer cial importance and is not known to contain mineral resources other than coal. There are also considerablo areas in the Kiiskokwlm river basin that are still unsurveyed, and this Is one of the fields to which the Geo logical Survey is dispatching parties this year. The Aleutian Islands are still known only through the charts of the early exploring expeditions, made chiefly by the Russians. On the other hand, practically every mining camp has been Bur- DR.

The high-grade coal fields of the Matanuska and Bering rivers and many of the more impor tant gold and copper bearing districts have been surveyed In detail.
