By C. F. WILLIAMS
Most everybody likes to "rough
It" r. cams ouL aa we sari
X do not believe In all my trav
els I -eyer met tut two people
who said they did not care for
such outdoor life, and these two
have my sincere sympathy
that's a fact.! h
As my wife has been In poor
health for the last year,-and" my
business affairs just shaped them
selves right to make an extended
trip, we packed up sufficient par
aphernalia to enable us to enjoy
the outdoors for two or three
months and started out (from Mt.
Vernon, Washington on the 2nd
day of Aprll.lv I :- .':t'" '
. Realizing that the weather
would be a, little rough probably
for camping during the month of
April; we planned to hit right Cor
lower California and then work
our way back 'as we liked, doing
our camping -in Oregor during
May and June. On the way to
this spot (Ashland), we stopped
iereral nights with M. P. Den
nis, (brother-in-law) In Seattle,
With whom my mother is living.
In Portland we visited with H.
RInghouse, the veteran White
Wyandotte breeder, known to all
poultrymen throughout the Coast
states. In Salem we stopped for
two days, being royally entertain
ed by Dr B.) H. Whltp and wife,
the first evening, and Mr. and
Mrs. C. M. Inman on Tuesday.
Our first stop waa. at CotUge
Grove after, leaving Salem. We
would have : reached Roseourg,
but due : to generator trouble I
had to make a couple of stops be
fore I found! a mechanic capable
ot putting it IxS shape. As it was
late we turned in at a notei. t
From CotUge Grove we hoped I
to reach the California line, and
decided to camp atjAshland and
t iiiio wo for - a few
fla-m. RUT when within two
miles of Ashland the good wife
called my attention to a algn.
-Hot Sulphur Mud Baths" on a
little house by the side ojf the
road and on the other aide was a
beautiful camp site! By this
time the car 'had passed It up by
a hundred yards or more, so I
tun. M.vinr then turned
.aaaaa. . am a W aa"w-Dl I
around and drove into the park,
where a large swimming pool and
. M.nMiir navilion met my eyes.

POLITICAL CHAIU8ES
AFFECT HIGHWAYS
Fourteen States Change Per
sonnel of Highway De
partment This Year
Highway . departments . of 14
states have ' either been re-orcan-
jUed or the management of thel?
affairs are under new direction
as the result of the action of the
Legislatures . or a change In the
State administration, according to
the study of State Highway ac
tivities being made by thei Good
Roads Board of the American Au
tomobile Association.
This big turnover In manage
ment of state . highway denart-
ments does not take in considera
tion the changes which occurred
during 1922 and th years pre
ceding, but represents the legis
lative or political product of three
and a half months of 1923. When
it - is considered that these de
partments have the expenditures
of from 12.000,000 to $40,000,
000 annually under their direc
tlon. the economic loss resulting
from the frequent changes1 In ad
ministration with the, correspond
ing, changes in' policy Is appall
ing, pednts tnxif .H. O. 'Shirley,
chairmatrt of the I Good Roads
Board ibf the American Automo
bile association.
. The Good Roads Board ' recog
nizes that changes In personnel
and plan of administration of the
State Highway Departments are
sometimes advisable pust as chan
ges are advisable in private bus
iness. said i Mr. Shirley. Any
changes ; made, argues the Good
Roads, Board. -should be made on
sound business principles looking
to the highest efficiency and eco
nomy ot administration rather
than through political expediency
as seem to be indicated in the rec
ord of some of the recent turn
overs In state highway ad minis-1
tration.i Ti .. -i'v
The changes made In the State
vary from the usual change of the
chief executive 6T the Department
with the Incoming administration,
to a complete re-organ Ization of
a State Highway j department
along, entirel ydlf ferent lines. nT
one State after May 1 of this year
there will be left only one assis
tant draftsman of the old organi
zation. ; j" .
AJl of the heads of departments
and even minor employees were
asked fox their resignations. In
another 'state widely separated
from the first the entire person
nel of the directive heads of the.
organization were .relieved from
further duty by legislative enact
ment and a new form of adminis
tration substituted. This is the
second complete change in four
years for this state.
If la corresponding high per
centage of private business con-,
cerns of similar magnitude were
subjected to a like turnover in
management, Mr. Shirley declares
the, results would be so dlsastr-.
cua to business generally as to de
mand on the part of business the
immediate remedy of this sita-
tion. '. ;.. - . -

COSTS ARE SB
Manufactuer of- Auto Tire Is
Explained By Local Auto
Supply I Man .
Many people wonder why an
automobile tire should cost so
much. The average: person does
not have much of an Idea' of what
it takes to, make a high grade
tire.; j Everybody realizes that a
tire: makes quite a noise when It
blows out; they understand that
It Is quite a - job to change tires
out on the road andjknsW It sets
them back a good many dollars
when they have to buy a new one
but the question of how- a tire Is
made and why it should cost so
much It a matter that the aver
age motorist very seldom inquires
into. X.:
High grade cord tires have the
carcass or body of the tire built
up layer upon layer of bard twist
ed Ions staple cotton fibre cords
laid diagonally across each other,
then the breaker strip or tread
protection strip laid on top the
tire and a heavy tread of proper
ly, compounded rubber gum -placed
on the outside and the complet
ed tire vulcanized In a mold un
til U reaches the proper consist
ency or toughness.
According to information - re
ceived by Mr. IT. F. Strutridge,
manager of the local branch of
Western Auto Supply compa'ny, a
33x3 cord tire contains more than
five miles of hard twisted cord j
that Is cut In lengths a little
more j than a foot long makinfr
approximately 19.000 individual
pieces of cord 1 and these are aft
laid in their proper position with
sufficient rubber ' gum between
them to make a tough, springy,
resilient body. Each cord is lar
ger;, and stronger; than, an ordin
ary, fishing line, j It Is made Up
from 15 small hard twisted,
strands, each, strand containing
over 60 fibres of cotton. This
makes over 30,000,000 feet of cot
ton fibre In one tire.
When one stops to consider all
this, they begin ' to understand
that the making of a tire Is quite
a complicated matter and that the
great amount of expert work re
quired justifies : the seemingly
high cost. From thel time the cot
ton; is taken from the bale after
it comes from the cotton growing
district and the juice ot the rub-
visit to our sales room, at Ferry and Commercial streets
well. Before you buy look over our stock, get our
