WILL THY AGAIN TQ FIND ICE CONTINENT
Captain EJnar MlXlrdsen, who was
ii Joint commander of the Anglo
American Polar rpo(Wlon which
sought to find an ndlscovered con
tinent In the Beaufort sea. arrived
from the north today on fhe 'Yucatan.
Cuptoln Mlkkelsrn's vessel, the Duch
ess of Bedford, was lost In the Ice
puck near Flax-man (slant a year
ago. He brings -with him a great
fund of Information concerning the
unexplored Beoufort sea and an
nounces his purpose of fitting out
another expedition to continue his
search for land, rys a Seattle dis
patch. Ernest de Ko Koven Lefftngwell,
who with Captain Mlkkelsen. com
manded the expedition, remained at
Plavman island lo continue his scien
tific work Captain Mlkkelsen start
ed October IS from Flaxman Island
and made the Journey along the
northern shores of Alaska to Nome,
arriving at the latter place Januar j
18 and Journeyed with dog sleds up
the Yukon river to Fort Gibbon, and
came out by the way of Fairbanks
und Valdex.
Captain Mikkelsen's expedition tra
versed the continental shelf In the
Beaufort sea and ascertained that if
land d"es lie beyond the sea it Is an
Independent continent. He has ob
tained Information concerning ocean
currents which will be Invaluable to
him when he makes his next attempt
to attain the unknown continent.
Make ltafw Out or Sleds.
Captain Mlkkelsen made use of a
new Idea in polar travel by which he
wns able to save 90 pounds weight on
his sledges. In the tedious march
over the Ice hummocks, the party
frequently came upon open water.
Captain Mlkkelsen had none of the
native knryacks of which Dr. Nan sen
made such good use, but Instead he
made his boats when the occasion
arose. He strapped a waterproof
tarpaulin beneath his sledges and
Improvised a raft which floated. The
sledge expedition went further Into
the unexplored Beaufort sea than had
been planned by the royal geograph
ical society of Indon and the Am
erican Geographical society of New
York, which directed the expedition.
They found the continual shelf and
had learned that beyond this shelf
there wag water of great depth. It
wns ascertained ' that the Beaufort
sea was not a shallow basin, as had
been supposed.
The sledge expedition started from
Flaxman Island March Is, 1907. They
took 20 dogs. The trip occupied 86
days. During the Journey they en
countered rubble Ice, which Is form
ed by breaking up of thin Ice under
pressure and freezing again, leaving
the edge sticking straight up. For
eight days of their Journey they ac
complished only 14 miles.
Captain Mlkkelsen has two piano to
attain the polar continent One Is a
boat and sledge trip from Point Bar
row, taking only a small amount of
provisions and trusting to finding the
Ice-capped land, the shores of which
he believes will support human life
His other plan Is to fit out another
ship which will be frozen in the polar
pack as far north as Point Barrow as
he can drive the vessel and to use It
as a basis of supplies for his sledge
Journey.

ItiglitN to Bore for Oil.
The local oil company, organized
for the purpose of making a thor

pecta in this section, sent an order
last week to Bradford, Pennsylvania,
for tool and machinery with which
to sink the wells, and they confident
ly expect to begin active operations
within the next 60 days. Leases for
more than 14,500 acres of land in the
Opal Prairie, Culver and Lamontu
districts have been signed, and many
others are expected to sign within the
next two weeks.
This was the information given out
last Saturday by memtxM-s of the com

Pioneer.
Only one will will he drilled to be.

ordered will be used in connection
with the big Lovelaod drill, and with
new machinery the hole will be sent
down lo a depth of several thousand
feet If necessary. A thorough test
will be made of the best prospect the
company has on Its leased ground,
and if indications Justify It, other
wells will be sunk at once at other
points. It has not yet been definite

will be sank.
The local company is backed by

The experience of . E. Drury, who

that strawberries are MM of the most
profitable crops that can lie raised In

of the postofflce, and frvtn an acre
and a half he realized Jasl season
over $ 1 011 0 gros receipts. The fruit
Is picked off the vines In baskets In
which it is marketed, and is also crat
ed before leaving the ground.
Mr Piiiry has a unique and handy
arrangement for carrying the small
baskets about the patch. The- tray
consists of a flat wooden base, fitted
With springs made of common wire to
hold the receptacles In place, and a
wire hall and wooden handhold to
protect the hnnds. This device is nn
invention of Mr. Drury,
This rancher has also shown the
residents of his section that alfalfa
can be successfully grown and has .1
field on top of the Irlll near his straw
berry beds, from which he cuts two
good crops each year, and then gets
good pasture from the tract.

AUTOMOBILES
Is Air-Cooling Practical? What does it do?
What is the benefit ?
Nobody tvor questioned thai if air-cooling will cool it is the ideal
method. But the question still cornea up "will it cool '." Look into that
fairly
Last Augitst a Franklin Type D automobile ran from Chicago to
New York in less than 4(1 hours, cutting the water-cooled record 18
hours and 150 minutes.
A machine could not he "coddled" and make that record. It must
he driven hard. In fact, this Type D leat the express train that carried
the relay drivers he t ween three of the stops, else the record would have
been cut still further.
The 15-day run of a Franklin Type H automobile from San Fran
oisco to New York in August two years ago, is also still untouched.
The Franklin I) engine ran 7 days without stopping, in a hot Chi
cago salesroom, and again at Cincinnati it ran 18 day-. :VM2 miles,
over had winter mads. In this run the Franklin motor was kept going
every minute and only stopped finally when the emergency hrake was
pulled by mistake.
Finally, 5828 Franklin automobiles are in daily use.
Can anyone douht that Franklin air-coolinir is completely practical .
You gain simplicity. Water-coolintr is a complicated system. It
increases the liability to trouhle. If the water boils there will lie over
heating. This can't happen to the Franklin motor. The temperature
is more constant and more efficient. It eets more work out of the gas
oline. You save the extra weight of water-cool imr apparatus. The pow
er is not handicapped. Tt can do more. And with the Franklin shock-ah-sorriing1
construction the power can always he comfortably used. The
operating expense is light : and you pet all the henefit of it.
No other automobile weighing under 2000 pounds will do the work
of the Franklin family touring-tar Type G which weighs only 1(100
pounds. Delivered in Pendleton, $1950.
No automobile hut a Franklin will carry five people as far in a
day and its comfortably as the Franklin 5-passenger Type D ; yet it
only Weighs 2200. The average fi-passcnger automobile weighs a third,
more. Delivered in Pendleton, $2950.
The 6-cylinder, T-passenger Type II is the ablest and easiest tour
ing car in existence,- yet it weighs onlv 2600 a thousand pounds leas,
than the average 7-pasenger automohile. Delivered in Pendfeton.
