Portland RED CROWN GIVES A GREATER MILEAGE In the third of a series of gasoline tests held here Red Crown, product of the Standard Oil Co.. last Friday morn inc won in a contest with gasoline of the Associated Oil Co. In former tests products of each of the oil concerns had scored a lead. Last Friday two tests were run, a half-gallon of gasoline of each company being used in each test. A Buick six automobile diiven by Earl Weber was used. In the first teet the car was so adjusted that a choke mixture was fed to the engine, and the mileage was Door for both Associated and btanaara, the former winning. In 19 minutes the Associated ran 6.85 miles, while the Red Crown in 17 minutes and 40 sec onds ran the car 6.45 miles. The ease line for this test was drawn from the pumps the morning of the contest, the Red Crown being purchaed at the Mt. Hood Motor Co., and the Asssociated from Mark Cameron. In the second teat gasoline that had been drawn from the same places the Monday before, sealed and deposited. was used. The motor was readjusted to eliminate the choke. The Associated gave 7.95 miles in 21 minutes and 30 seconds. The Red Crown gasoline gave 9.8 miles in 25 minutes and 5 seconds. The test was observed by representa tives of both newspapers here, and G. W. Feffer and E. F. Smith, of the Standard Oil Co., accompanied the party. The maximum speed was limited to 25 miles. Every precaution was taken to make the contest absolutely fair. The Red Crown mileage, if anything, may have been cut down slightly, when it became necessary toward the close of the run to avoid a car met on a curve. A hill faced the machine after the jockeying at the turn, and the soeed of the machine was cut down to six miles in climbing the grade.

Clipped Here and There J HlHUIt 1 1 n i n m n 1 1 1 1 Two members of the Chronicle staff have set up a little communistic gov ernment all of their own, a soviet so as to speak, as the result of matri monial adventures culminating in the last two weeks. In a rambling old home at 201 West Seventh street, up a lane and around a devious road that leads from Union street, the joint menage has been set up, with pot luck as the dominating feature of the arrangement. The male principals of the arrangement are Hugh Davey. Chesterfieldean printer, whose avocation is swimming, and Kenneth L. Hicks, news reporter whose writings in the course of a year bring joy or woe to every person in The Dalles and f half the residents of the county, according to bis interpre ....'on ha ".tn.. Urn Davey started things three week ago when he went to Portland for a 24-hour honeymoon after marrying Miss Verna bmitb. Returning with his bride, they set up their domicile in the Seventh street dwelling. Saturday afternoon Hicks threatened County Clerk Crichton into silence and then procured a marriage license. The other name on the contract was that of Miss Winifred Woelk. Hicks stole down to Portland early Sunday morning and met Miss Woelk, who had been at the home of her parents for several weeks, They were married at 5 o'clock yes terday afternoon by Rev. b. bar I Du Bois. of the Church of the Strangers. A few Portland friends of the couple attended the ceremony. Last night they returned to The Dalles and took up their abode in the other half of the Seventh street house. Here they will share 50-50 all around, with a common table and a common grocery bill, common payment of the rent, a common front porch, a common garden and a common lawn. Hicks owning the automobile, this vehicle will be thrown into the communal es tablishment, he admitted today. Ihe : whole transaction, by the way, amounts in the long run only to a re versal of mates. Hicks and Davey cast their fortunes together last sum' mer and lived more or less harmonious ly as companions in the Court apart ments. The girls who are now brides like' wise shared apartments. The arrange ment is the same today with the ex ception that the deck has been shuffled, Both girls are graduate nurses, hav ing finished courses at lbe Dalles hos pital two years ago, and according to Dr. Fred Thompson, who is bead of the hospital school, "darn good" nurses. How effective their ministra tions may be towards their spouses re mains to be determined by the fellow sufferers of the latter in the Chronicle office. The Dalles Chronicle. Harry Collerd, a farmer of Pine brook, N. J., was working in the wood lot on bis place when be was stung on the right temple by a honey bee. He stumbled across to the farm bouse in a fainting condition and collapsed in the kitchen after telling his wife what had happened. Physicians were sum moned, but before they could reach the farm, probably 10 minutes after be bad been, stung Collerd waa dead. Mrs. Collerd said that when ber husband half fell into the kitchen he was holding one hand to his throat. with the other pressed to his right temple. He dropped into a chair, she said. "and as 1 ran to his side asking him what waa the matter be pointed to his right temple, which was badly swollen. He told me be bad been stung by a bee. He could hardly talk because bis throat waa swelling rapidly. 1 Mad trouble in understanding what he said." Drs. C E. Birdsall and Alexander Dallas said that Collerd 's death had been caused by the bee sting in the temple. Both physicians are authority for the statement that a bee sting in the temple or on either knee results fatally nine times out of ten. Spokane Spokesman-Keview. Hood River county has lost a capable and valued fruit inspector because the commissioners thought it necetwy to cut the salary from 13,100 to S2.400 a year. It may so happen that no seri ous consequences will result. Tbe commissioners may be fortunate in finding a man of integrity and experi ence at tbe lower salary. Most of tbe growers of tbe county seem to Ihmk the infinitesimal saving on their taxes may be lost through less efficient in spection service, Better Fruit. - COMMERCIAL CLUB AIDS LAKE FUND The Commercial Club has launched a campaign to raise SI 500 to be applied to improvement of the Lost Lake Highway without the bounds of the Oregon National Forest. Recently the Forestry Service appropriated $4,000 for the construction of a new grade, provided the county would match the funds. Tbe county court had available only $2,500, and the club pledged the balance. J. H. Fredricy heads the campaign committee. He has appoint ed cava ssers for the city as follows: P. F. Clark, C. O. Huelat, Earl Franz and C. A. Bell. Captains of rural committees are: Dr. E. T. Hull, Odell; K. A. Collins, Dee; M. O. Boe, Parkdale ; C. E. Graves, Oak Grove : J. R. Nickelsen, Frankton; A. W. Peters, Pine Grove and E. W. Birge, Barrett. The canvassers simultaneously will raise funds for other club purposes, in cluding the Frank Branch Riley lec ture fund and club entertainment. Donors, however, will be privileged to specify where they wish their gifts applied. To stimulate action on the part of non-members, the prviilege of the club will be extended for six months to all country residents, and three months to all city residents. W. A. Langille, who has charge of the new grade being built jointly by the forestry service and county, says that the funds available will rebuild a little over two miles of the road from the forest bounds to the D. I. Stone place. The link has already been sur veyed and 26 men are engaged on the task. Mr. Langille estimates that the work will be completed by July 1. Further appropriations are expected to make possible additional joint work next summer. Tomorrow a party of about 15 men, headed by S. Benson, will motor to the confluence' of the Lake Branch and West Fork of Hood river to inspect the new work. Mr. Benson has donated $250 toward the joint road fund. Aitkcn Gives Road Advice S. F. Aitken, who was accompanied on the tour by Mrs. Aitken, F. G. Hutchinson and Mrs. Geo. 1. Sargent, has just returned from a motor trip into central Oregon as far as the Me tolius river. The party made the trip, into the hinterland by way of Wasco and Grass Valley, returning by the Tygh grade. Mr. Aitken says the road by way of Sherman county is in excellent condition. He advises trav elers en route to central Oregon to avoid the road by Dufur, Kingsley and Tygh Valley. Mr. Aitken says the fishing in the Metolius was very poor because of high water. . Japanese Horticulturist Here on Visit . Y. Sbima, horticulturist of the Im perial Agticultural Department at Ao mori, Japan, is sending two weeks here studying methods of orcharding as em ployed by mid-Columbia growers. He is taking many photographs to show to h is fellow countrymen engaged in ap ple growing. Mr. Shima, who says there is now a keen demand for the services of Japan ese who have had practical experience in raising apples in this country, de clare" that the apple industry is reach ing fair proportons in Japan. Mr. Shima, while here, is the guest of M. YasuL Peculiar Accident on Highway Motorists reaching here over the Highway Sunday reported the narrow escape of a party just west of Eagle creek. A" driver turning on the nigh way. sped backward, to avoid on coming cars, and drove bis machine rear end foremost down the steep can yons ide. In an endeavor to reverse his gears, he had left the car in neutral. The machine after a plunge of 75 feet, straddled a log, which stopped its progress. Women pagssengers were rendered hysterical, but no one was in jured.

VALLEY CALLED GATE WAY TO LOST LAKE Judge Hasbrouck, at a meeting of members of the Commercial Club Mon day night, suggested that an arch should be placed over the Columbia River Highway west of Hood River bearing the inscription : "Hood River. The Gateway to Lost Lake and the Most Beautiful Mountain in America." A number of speakers at the meet ing predicted that a commercial tour ist hotel of large proportions will soon be erected on the side of the mounain. E. O. Blancbar, who recently attended the meeting of the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association at Tacoma, stated that Paradise Inn, where $700,000 is now invested, paid dividends last year. This hostelry will accommodate 1,200 guests. Mr. Blancbar stated that 80 per cent of the 500,000 tourists vistiing the Northwest last summer came by rail. H. S. Braakman gave a talk, sug gesting that orchardists advertise the valley by placing cards in their boxes of fruit. He had a friend once, he said, who acquired a wife through a slip of paper found in a tobacco box. J. R. Edgar and R. A. Collins, down from Dec.addressed the club members.

Last Sunday the Hood River team went to Portland to shoot a match with the Portland teams. Class A and B winning over the Class B team by 15 targets, and loosing to the Class A team by five targets.

The individual scores, each man shooting at 50 targets, are as follows : Portland Class A team Ford 49 J. B. Troeh 49 Seavey 49 C. S. Sparks ? 48 Gibson 47 H. W. Sparks 46 Preston ... 45 J. C.

Button of tbe home team tied J. B. Troeh and Unden with nine out of ten targets, Button and Troeh losing to Unden in the shoot oil. Next Sunday will begin a new three months prize shoot at the local traps, but the shooters instead of being di vided into two classes with tbe Stand ard Handicap System being used in each class. This will give every shooter an equal chance, and is the only really fair and equal way to con duct a competition. One week from next Sunday, June 18, we will begin a new competition, entirely separate from the three months' competition and to this end at the time of the annual pheasant feed given by the club this fall. In this competition a rifle will be donated by E. R. Pooley as first prize; a shooting jacket by J. G. Vogt as second prize and a fishing reel by W. L. Marshall as third prize. To give all shooters an equal chance at these prizes the added target handicap system will be used.
