Madison Grant, head of the New York
Zoological Society, here Friday en

the scenic standpoint but both voiced
a single strong: rnticism of the failure
of the state or counties in conserving
the trees along the highway.
"These forests," said Mr. Grant,

When a Liberty Motor i. giving its
utmost to push forward a Liberty
plane, the result to the ear at least, is
a noise which would hardly be welcome
in the reading room of a public library.
or under your window when you want
to sleep.
Such is the voice of gasoline raised
in protest against being introduced to
the little spark of electricity which
jumps across the spark plugs 1H5 times
every second ; but the protest is in vain
for the "juice" keeps coming; 1G5
times each second, y'JOO sparks per
minute, 594,000 times in an hour, com
ing from a little innocent looking box
full of lead and acid and water and
rubber, stowed away in the fueelage
out of sight but never out of the mind
of the man whose life depends upon it.
lhe storage battery is the soul of
the Liberty Motor. As gasoline is its
food, steel and aluminum its clothing,
so is electricity itB spark of life.
Without that spark it is an inert mass;
with it the Liberty Motor is a source
of magnificent power.
The Willard Storage Battery Com
pany for which Max L. Moore is
county agent, had in Cleveland for
years been making storage batteries
for starting, lighting and ignition
on automobiles. When Uncle Sam
decided he would "take no more non
sense" from the Kaiser, the Willard
Organization whs asked to design a
storage battery for ignition in an air
craft motor.
The first difficulties faced were the
necessary limitations on size and
weight, as Uncle Sam's specifications
called fur a battery of a certain capac
ity weighing not more than ten pounds.
Any motorist who has tried to lift
his storage battery, knows what it
weights. Lead, the very name sounds
heavy, makes up most of the storage
battery, and ten pounds of lead is not
verv much. The Willard engineers set
to work and designed a battery of the
proper -capacity, weighing' but ten
ponnds and two ounces, which was sat
isfactory to the Government designers.
Hut size and weight were not the
only obstacles. An automobile proper
ly driven stays on its wheels ana there
is no danger of the acid contents of the
battery spilling out. Hut a Liberty
Plane must operate just as well "head
over heels" as any other way, and the
Willard engineers found that they must
design a battery which, while open at
the top, did not spill its contents when
inverted. This sounds rather difficult.
and it w as, but it was done just the
same. Within ten days from the
receipt of the ( overnment's specifica
tions, the Willard engineers had de
signed and perfected a battery which
met the government's needs as to ca
pacity, size, weight, and this battery
operated upside down. This battery
was adopted and never since has it
been changed in any detail.
Scenic Points Will Get Names
At the instance of C. A. Bell, the
Hood Kiver tlame I'rotective Associa
tion has started a campaign for nam
ing the numerous scenic points of in
terest to tourists in the vicinity of the
Valley. With J. W. West, AI. Cruik
shank and Mr. Bell, appointed as a
committee, all spots of interest will be
searched out and appropriately marked
with neat signs. The signs will show
the motorist over the Columbia River
Highway places that are worth stop
ping to see. They will appear along
all Valley roads. Mr, Bell, who says
he noticed while on a visit to Canadian
resorts that every nook was named,
has already christened the highest
eminence between here and Mosier.
He has called it Mount Kibbe, and has
had a neat sign painted for its desig
nation. Duckwall Will Build
John G. Duckwall, associated with
a brother VV, S. Duckwall, of Indian
apolis, Ind., in Udell orchards, has for
the paat several years marketed his
own crop and that of neighbors, ship
ping to Indianapolis and eastern mar
kets. Mr. Duckwall will enter the
export trade this year, having been
appointed Odell buyer for a British
concern.
Mr. Duckwall will begin work next
week on a receiving warehouse and
storage plant at Odell. The new
structure, 36 by 12 feet, will have a
capacity for storing eight carloads of
apples. Joseph Novachek, of IVrtland,
will be architect.
Gas Famine Last Week
Joy again prevailed among Hood
Kiver motorists Saturday. After a
week without a shipment of gasoline,
the famine was broken by arrival of a
tank car Friday night, and the local dis
tributing station of the Standard Oil
Co. was busy Saturday refilling tanks i
of garages and service stations.
The tank car left the Portland plant j
of the oil company Monday. Whesitj
failed to arrive here a tracer was ;
started, and the fuel was found on a !
siding in the Albina yards, hidden from
view by other cars.

Cost of Lading Advances
Members of the Hood Kiver Bar As

declare that the High Cost of Living
has struck them a severe wallop, and
as a result the luxury of litigation will
in the future lie more expensive. At
torney's fees will be increased
approximately .ri0 tier cent. In

Creamery Increases Business
Now drawing cream from Under
wood, White Salmon and other Wash
ington points, just across the Colum
bia, in addition to the heavy increase
of deliveries from local Valley dis
tricts, the Hood River Creamery, a
cooperative concern operated by the
apple growers of the community has
more than doubled its business in the
past year. Manager W. M. lilack
reports that the concern whs receiving
an approximate IS, 000 pounds of butter
fat a year ago each month. The deliv
eries for last month exceeded 7,00(1
pounds.
Through the cooperative arrange
ment the local growers receive slightly
more per pound for their butter fat
than is paid by Portland creameries.
Aeroplane Sighted Here
A visitor to Hood River last Thurs
day afternoon would have found babies
deserted, stores and residences vacated
and the population out with heads
thrown back, their eyes on an aero
plane sailing serenely up the Columbia
gorge at about a 4,000 feet elevation.
The coming of the machine was not'
iced first by Frankton residents, who
spread the alarm, and with telephone
messages heralding the coming of the
plane, local residents poured out of
doors to see the machine, the second
that has ever soared over the Valley.
It is thought that it was one of the
forestry service fire patrol machines.
, Pioneer Dies in Seattle
Relatives and friends have just had
news of the death in Seattle of Simon
Frazier, aged 74, pioneer shipbuilder of
Astoria and The Dalles. Mr. Frazier,

of the Isthmus of Panama, first en
gaged in shipbuilding at Astoria, and
later removed to The Dalles, where he
constructed some of the old boats of
the Steam Navigation Co. He came
here, purchasing one of the first plots
to be sold on the old Belmont townsite,
on the West Side.
Mr. Frazier, Tin uncle of Joseph Fra
zier, city marshal here, had lived in
Seattle 28 years.
