Thp Salem camp ground is dis tinct in the United States, being the only one where a city system of streets, blocks and numbering 1b carried out. The idea originated with Mr. Tozier in 181)0 and has been in use ever since. This yea: marks the thirtieth that Mr. -Tozier has served as camp euperin ten dent.

Commercial St. Adv, By-Products Exhibit Educational Feature Of College Display Possibilities of retricveing valu able by-products from lumber wattle ana establishing a new and profitable Industry for Oregon are Indicated In the chemical labora tory exhibit at the state fair. Re covery of essential oils from cedar and myrtle oil from the rare and fancy myrtle wood of Bouthwest est Oregon, and Improvement in methods of saving the menthol from the peppermint industry al ready established are the objectives which the exhibit typifies. "Research Is the price of prog ress and assurance of dividends," reads one of the signs explaining the exhibit. The sentiment Is ac credited to Arthur D. Little, fa mous research specialist. "Re search built the O. A. C. chemlcaU laboratory," is another legend, at tributed to Floyd D. Rowland, head of the department. And It Is re search at work in all its Intricate and alluring processes that this ex hibit portrays. Already the process of extract ing and refining the cudar oils is under way on a combined experi mental and commercial scale, at the mills of the Port Orford Cedar Lumber company. MarshCield Ore gon," said Professor Rowland. "It Is taken from the sawdust in which it Is abundant In large quantities. Each year at this mill alone 1,800, 000 pounds of sawdust are avail able, and it runs about 1.6 per cent oil. Thus nearly 33,000 pounds of cedar oil are going to waste an nually. The experimental plant now in operation has turned out more than 7000 pounds -that have gone to market, practically paying the cost of production and indicat ing that on a commercial scale the operation will prove successful. The oil la there In large quanti ties and we have only to learn the best means of distilling and refin ing !t." The exhibit shows these pro cesses in action under the manipu lation of two chemical engineering students of the collego. Legible signs Indicate the nature of the exhibit. Extraction of myrtle oil Is shown in another section of the exhibit The tumes of this oil are extreme ly toxic, and the material has to bo handled with extreme care. In the experimental work shown it is securely held within glass tubes. Little la known of Its chemical composition, but this will be the subject of much research this com ing year. The peppermint oil Industry al ready fairly well established at this time suffers from lack of recover ing and making more permanent in crystal form the menthol con tent. This has been accomplished experimentally at the college lab oratory, and the largest crystals observed by the federal chemical specialists at Washington turned out. Methods of relating the pro cess to a commercial scale will be sought this coming year. The Oregon essential oils are sold in various markets, the bulk of the cedar olln so far having been taken over by German concerns. .Methods of Impregnating other Oregon woods with the oil to con struct synthetic cedar oil chests nd other furniture, and use of the oils as Insect repellents, are prom ising channels of marketlna.

Manufactured in Portland, the IRON FIREMAN has gained nationwide recognition and distri bution, and is bringing about a revolutionary change In the heating system of the nation. Heretofore automatic stokers were only available for very large plants. The IRON FIREMAN is designed for the average heating plant. It is available in seven sines, to heat from a larger residence up to the largest buildings. liy reason of its safe and dependable electric automatic control it removes the necessity of constant attention. The thermostat is set at the desired temperature, and this temperature is maintained in the building regardless of sudden changes outside. To start the fire in the morning It is only necessary to push in an electric switch, or, if a thermostat with clock attachment is used the clock can be set (o start the fire at a predetermined lime in the morning. The IRON FIREMAN burns low priced slack coal in the following manner: Coal, from the hopper, is carried forward by the worm to the retort, and upward into the fire. The gases are gradually liberated by the heat, rise through the fuel bed, and are mixed with air supplied by the fan. The air enters through slots in the tuyers which completely surround the r ctort. As the gases rise through the zone of intense heat above tney burn completely, nnd without smoke. The coal thus gradually cokes an it rises and burns in the upper and outer parts of the fire. It is con stantly being broken and stirred by the movement of the coal below, so that when it finally is pushed away from the sides nothing but incom'nistibles remain. You have at all times a clean white fire, a clean boiler, less soot, no smoke. The IRON FIREMAN wastes no fuel; it burns every particle of coal efficiently. It shuts down automatically when sufficient heat has been supplied: starts up automatically when more is required. No fuel is wasted in overheating rooms or popping safety valves, in opened furnace doors and smoky slacks. COAL is the logical fuel to use. Plentiful and stable in price, it is always available al a momenta notice, takes less storage room nnd is delivered into your basement ready for use. n 14 Installation The IRON FIREMAN is installed under an absolute guarantee.
