J State as well ns army officials learned traffic lessons from tho huge truck movement. In Wash ington, Carl Fritz of the state highway department, took mo tion pictures of traffic condi tions as the troops moved toward Vancouver. Oregon highway officials scal loped the columns making notes on bottlenecks and the affect of tho convoy on civilian traffic.

A w h I s k c y-bottlo "Incident" rocked the 41st division's 81st brigade with laughter while it wns moving by motor from Fort Lewis to Its summer maneuver area here. Whiskey was strictly taboo on tho southward march but as the sedan of Colonel C. A. Orndorff of Spoknnc, commander of tho 161st infnntry regiment, round ed a curve, officers spotted a man in tho bock of a mnintc- siuncu irucK, aliening a wnisKcy "bottlo away In a tool cabinet drawer.

Soma outfits follow an cost to west routo, beginning In the high desert of eastern Oregon and working toward tho Oregon const. Shecpshcuring Is a seasonal oc cupation, differing todny from ycntcrdiiy mainly In Its power driven shenrs. Old-time sheepmen tell of oc casional shearers who could shear 100 sheep In a day by hand. But tho advent of gus powcrcd shears In tho middle 1020's and then of portable elec tric plants to power tho shenrs six years ago, meuns that loduy the eight to 10 shearers In an outfit can remove the fleeces from 1000 sheep in a six to eight hour day. Shearing 100 to 130 sheep a dny is still hnrd wnrk, however, even with a pnlr of power-driven shenrs, and calls for much stoop ing over In tho sheds next to the corrals. The tier nnd the sucker, or tamper, nro two other members of nn outfit. They contribute their shnrc of "elbow grease" to earning tho money the outfit re ceives for shearing sheep.
