Harleu Bretz. The geologists are touring the west studying the rock formation of the Cascade range. The bones of the prehistoric horse Indicate that this section of the coun try was the home of the ancient dob bin perhaps 2,000,000 years ago. The three-toed horse of The Dalles pro bably belongs to the miocene age, according to the scientists. The prehistoric horse was smaller and in almost every particular differ ent from the modern horse. Its teeth were not grinders, but more fang-like, and its hoofs were three toed. The find of the camel bone is per haps more significant from a scien tific point of view than the uncover ing of the horse bones, since there are no living wild types of camel, save one, a two-humped variety dis covered in central Asia. So bones of the prehistoric camel are the only means by which science is able to trace the evolution of the camel from its earliest forms. This prehistoric camel was not Jiuch larger than a large jack rab bit and had no hump. However, Its feet bones are not unlike those of the present day camel, and it was pro vided with the peculiar stomach di vided into separate water compartments. Roads of America will add to our own glory and we will have some that may rival the roads ot ancient Rome. Any way there is a great wave of enthus iasm spreading over the whole coun try and by bonding issues, future generations will be permitted to pay for some ot the benefits which will result.
