Road to Top of Battle Moun
tain Receiving Major At
tentionJack Creek Road
Faces Easy Stretch
CAMP WIMER. Aug. 9. (Spl.)
Fire Interruptions and low company
strength may prevent the wlmer CCC
workmen from reaching the objectives
laid out for summer accomplishment.
It la thought here. At the present
time, the road to the top of Battle
mountain Is receiving major atten
tion, the object being to cut through
to the observation eower at that high
point so that material may be moved
in by truck to build the new tower
before the fall rains commence.
Wlmer recently received a new bull
dozer making four In all now work
ing out of this camp. Two of the
snub-nosed dirt movers are gashing
the sides of Pry Peak one mile short
of the saddle between Pry Peak and
Battle mountain. Prom the saddle,
there will still be 1 miles of road
to build before the first load of tim
bers can be moved In for the new
tower. Chief Foreman Thompson
hopes to cut a truck trail through
to the top by October 1, thus winning
the race with the rains by a narrow
margin.
Push Jack Creek Road
The Jack creek road has now
emergedfrom the Jack creek canyon
timber and has begun the half-mile
of comparatively easy going along the
bare ridge toward the Daisy mine,
Foreman Coffman hopes to reach the
mine, 1'4 miles away by September
15. Ultimate objective of the Jack
creek road Is to tie Into the King
mountain road 4 miles beyond the
mine at a point In the burn at the
head of Ditch creek.
The Ditch creek-King mountain
road still lacks two miles of reaching
the point where It makes a Juncture
with the Jack creek road. At that
point it will begin the plunge down
the hillside to Grave creek, cross at
the Pease place and ascend the slope
to King mountain along the flat ridge
between Boulder creek and Baker
creek. Distance yet to go to King
mountain is about 8 miles and It will
be impossible to complete the road
before the rains commence.
Rork Crusher Moving ,
During the next three days & 75
yard rock crusher will be sent In to
be set up at rock bluff two miles
above the Juncture of the Ditch creek
and county road. Rock from the
crusher will be used to make the new
road passable during the winter
months, thus making it possible to
work on the ridges between Daisy
mine and the burn until heavy snow
falls. The Jack creek road will not
likely be rocked this year.
The new road system will. In addi
tion to Its usefulness in the control
of fires, be Instrumental in opening
up new regions of scenic beauty to
summer tourists. Steepest of the
roads. Jack creek, has a grade which
does not exceed 13 per cent, easily
pa5sable for passengers cars. Winding
up through shady canyons heavily
wooded by fir, pine and cedar. It
emerges on a long narrow ridge where
for half a mile, automobilists can
look out In either direction upon a
tumbled world of green clad hills
with steep and twisted canyons. The
hills are like monster earthen waves
with the plumes of tall trees for
foam.
Big Valley Visible
At a point on the Battle mountain
road Just before the snaky road
throws a coll round Fry Peak to the
saddle, the whole of Pleasant valley
dotted with farms stretches out vis
ible to the hills beyond the Rogue.
A wide place in the trail at this
breezy point will enable tourists to
stop and reflect on the littleness of
man.
CCC members, keeping a sharp look
, out for outcropplngs of gold, examine
' the quartz every time the bulldozer
of the dynamite crew turns It up.
So far nothing but fools' gold has
been found, but the boys go on
scanning the milky quartz. The next
rock may be flecked with gold.

Today's constant starting, shifting and ac
celerating waste your money unless your
gasoline has these Three Kinds of Power
YOU often start up from a full stop over
30 times a day. And a single rooming
getaway, engineers and car manufacturers
will tell you, can use 33 more gasoline than
normal driving.
This means you need a gasoline with power
for HARD PULLING.
But one kind of power alone can't save you
money in today's stop-and-go driving. You
elso need power for INSTANT STARTS.
And your gasoline must be economical in
STEADY RUNNING as well!
It's one thing to put these three kinds of power
into a gasoline, but it's an even bigger engineer
ing job to have them in the right proportion . . .
in perfect BALANCE. But that is the feat Shell
engineers accomplished in creating Super
Shell the FIRST truly balanced gasoline...
the gasoline that saves money 3 WAYS I
Fill your tank today with Super-Shell at
one of Shell's 30,000 neighborly service
stations spread from Coast to Coast.
SAVES In 3 ways
STARTING Super-Shell can ear up to
cupful of gasoline on every "cold" atari. Etm
on sizzling summer days, your engine Is rela
tively "cold" when not running, because nor
mal temperature under the hood when running la over 150'.
PULLING It can save up to a cupful In 10 minutes of hard
pulling, or In rapid accelerating, or hill climbing.
RUNNING With Its eitra heat units, Super-Shell can
save up to a cupful, many motorists report, In an hour on
the long stretch thus saving on LONG RUNS as well as on
short trips.
Remember, when youtave Ucupjult, you tav a whole gallon!
