To the eastward it eonneetx Ore gon mid Idaho with the populous east by co-ordiuHtion with twit preat transcon tinental highways, the Uucolin High way and the "Yellowstone Trail, and to the east- the Pacific ocean. ' With these co-ordinatinj; highways, practically the whole I'nited Slates is afforded its sbor est and het mean to ocean route. The Unco In Highway, (he "Maiiistreet of the nation" has already seeureiV the expenditure of upwards of forty-tbrce million dollars in construction and spent KMXM) for promotion.

S. inuil, became exun.is leil from exposure and perished atone. His lonely gruve is now a prominent land mark eKide, Hie present highway, a monument to his untiring faith iu the final adoption of this pass as one of the main commercial nrtericM of the state. Soon after Crnic'H death the winter mail sen-ice was discontinued, but the adja cent counties have since continued 'to maintain a wagon road for summer Highway History Wven before the seaport, of Florence was founded in 1SS7, various plant were considered for transportation Connec tions with the populous east and New York, over the McKcnzie Pasa. How ever, not until Ihe automobile establish rtd itself oh a tnttwcontineiital factor on the Lincoln Highway, nttoiit the gin ning of the worhl war. did definite plans develop for the present Central Oregon Highway, as outliued on the map here with. This map i the third and latest one issued by the Central Oregon High was association and shows approximate-' ly the final location of what will soon heroine one of Jibe nation' great thor oughfares. At the. beginning of this traiiKMrtntion propaganda there was not even a bridal trail leading from the In terior of Florenco harbor; today, at sea , sonal tunes you can drive from Florence to New York over the Central Oregon Highway and Its co-ordinated eastern j connections. True, this oVeaa to ocean highway is yet rough, largely unmarked and verv little known. - Will Rapidly Develop Now that it lia become a riemonstrat- ! ed fact, its improvement will resjtond to j the rapidly glowing demand for high- , way service. Only a short time ago a tx wheeled auto truck made the run , from Ios Angeles to New York. .1507 miles in six days, 15 hours and t min utes running time, with a load includ ing ca r. of 2 1 M 0 pounds. Th is i s a demonstration of what heavy trucks can do on the long haul and with every wide improvement tu truck construction is ad ded many million of dollars to our high way efficiency. Ho long as this improve ment in power driven vehicles continues, the demand for better highways will in crease until every important highway is made HtaiKlard. With Improoved Highways Will Come Improved Harbors As soon as this Cemral Oregon High way bm-ome standard and connected with the Lincoln Highway and Yellow stone Trail. Oregon and Idaho will join in asking congre for a federal appro priation to deepen still more the Flor ence harbor to admit even larger idiips. Already $(150,000 has been spent on its jetties rendering the bar channel deeper and more permanent and i"t,IK0 placed lu the present river and harbor bill for dredichiK the inside channel so that lar ger ships nifty reach the nil road dock and upper mills.

Few days ago while the wri ter was in Portland it was au unusual sight, to see perfectly gitod automobiles piled up along the parking strips wit h broken wheels, not counting the incon venience, more or less injuries to drivers and passengers, caused by having wooden wheels on their cars, Americans who look to Kurope for new styles in motor cars, as well as iu clothes, will be interested to know that one of the most distinctly marked style movement in foreign cars is that toward steel disc wheels, according to J. G. Roppet, local disiributor of (iier Turae Steel Wheels. Mr. Koppel has just re ceived a report of the Ki'cat automobile show at London, where the finest Brit ish, French. lMpaii and Italian cars were exhibited. Out of itite hundred forty-five makes of cars on display, luvording to the Tunrc distnliulor s mrormattou, twenty-six p cent were eouipped with some form of the steel disc wl I.

'Tunrc Is particularly fortunate in be ing nhle to meet this style demand with a steel wheel ot heautiful appearance so designed that it retains all the advanta ges of older types, with- mures, me vulve steins eniue outside where tire in flation is easy. Also Tunrc steel wheels take standard demountable rims so that tire changing is accomplished in the usu al way without the extra cost, extra weight and extra work of buying, carry ing and using an entire spnre wheel." And it is a wheel which will negotiate any ice covered pavement and if unavoid able, they can hit the curb without col lapsing, which is impossible with the old fashioned wooden wheel.
