In the Illustration above Is pictured one of the most popular types of log-haul units a white truck with Isaacson Karry-Quad trailer, both represented by Walter w. Abbey, Inc., local dealer. This combination, on highway haul or private road, is dem onstrating its ability to move logs quickly and cheaply the ambition of every good logger. Users have found in the Isaacson Karry Quad trailer, which has' four wheels but no axles, a highly satis factory unit with the atrength and stamina of Paul Bunyan'a famed Blue Ox. Having been recently intro duced Into Oregon, the unique con struction of the Karry-Quad has cre ated a genuine Interest wherever It la seen. The absence of axles has caused It to be likened to the "knee action" of modern automobiles, and while its Independent wheel action is perhaps comparable, the construc tion la entirely different and must be seen to be appreciated. Each wheel Is mounted on an Individual wheel carrier, providing nn Indepen dent action having no affect on the other three wheels. Its makers claim tt to be an easier pulling trailer, 1 giving considerably more tire mileage 1 and having a much greater load-sta- blllty, since no tilting action Is trans ferred to the frame and bunk as In axle-type trailers. Further It has def- J lnltely proved to be easier on the ' roads. As each wheel rises and falla : In a vortical plane, no gouging of the j road results In the rough spots. I Another favorite with many log gers la the Isaacson Twin Tube Tan- j dem, a conventional axle type trailer, j Its claim to distinction Ilea prlmar- ly In Its twin tube frame (also used In the Karry-Quad), constructed I from special tubing with high torsion I resistance. In addition to the greater strength and flexibility, the frame tubes provide tankage both for the vacuum reserve (or compressed air) and water for .brake-cooling. Over-and-underslung dual springs, with universal-type shackles at each end, provide proper capacity and cushion ing for maximum loads, yet relieve the operator from all spring troublea. Commenting on the Karry-Quad trailer, Walter Abbey aald: "This Isaacson trailer, while new In our ter- ed workmanship I have found In all other Isaacson equipment for both trucks and tractors, and I am frank to aay I rank Isaacson products side by side with my White trucks and Allls Chalmers tractors." 4 PORTLAND, Sept. 1.

Nixon of the state department of geology and mineral Industries aald today a program for the development of mineral resources In the state will Include a survey, scheduled for Sep tember, of economic possibilities of tungsten deposits In eastern Oregon.

Mor rison is handling the work at Grants Pass and Donald Mackay starts this week at Baker, Ray O. Treacher, formerly with the war department mineral survey, lias started work on an Oregon geological map. : rltory, Tias been doing an excep tional lob In other sections, and I am hopeful of getting some In serv-1 lee In thla district. The fact that' these trailers have been In use for over two years by loggers In Wash ington, Oregon, California, British Co lumbia, and also In Idaho. Montana and even Arizona, Is the best Indi cation to me of Its real worth. No other logging trailer I know of has such wide distribution.'-' "The Karry-Quad on my display floor bears the same evidence of sktll- SH ANOH AI, Sept. 1 .
