King-Crenshaw Hardware Co THZ "WlNCHíSfíI STORE _____________ At the captain's table on an Atlantic liner a young woman idly inquired how far the ship was from the nearest land. Several passengers would have said offhand, "About eight hundred miles." But the captain turned the question over to a quiet gentleman who looked ut his watch and at a chart and amazed his hearers by answering, “Just about seventy yards.” “The land I speak of Is just thirty- six fathoms beneath this ship," con tinued the expert oceanographei. “It Is the summit of the Laura Ethel mountain, which Is 20,000 feet above the lowest level of the Atlantic basin. If It were some two hundred feet high er, or the sea were two hundred feet lower, you would call U an island. In effect, the Atlautlc Is a huge con tinent boasting a superficial area of 25.000,000 square miles. It is 9,000 miles long and 2,700 miles broad. The depth of the water that covers It Is by no means so considerable as people used to Imagine. Oceanography as u science may be said to date only from about 1850, but—thanks chiefly to the labors of the cable-laying nnd cable-repairing ships—our knowledge of the configuration of the bed of the ocean grows greater every year. The Laura Ethel mountain, discover ed In 1878, Is the uppermost peak of one of the most celebrated of the sub marine elevations In the Atlantic. Mount Chaucgr, at the eastward of It, was revealed to oceanographers In 1850. Sainthill, which is westward of both, has the honor to he the first mountain discovered in the Atlantic. It became known In 1832. Prior to the laying of the first At lantic cable Lieutenant Maury, United States navy, made It known that a wide plateau exists beneath the ocean, running from Ireland to Newfound land. It seemed so admirably suited to the purpose of cable laying that he modestly called It Telegraphic plateau, but In most charts it bears the discov er's name. The location of "Davy Jones’ Lock er” might be said to have been estab lished with the discovery of Sainthill. It has been estimated that at the base of Ibis eminence the relics of not few er than seven thousand wrecks lie scattered. Or one might ascribe that grewsome distinction to the Faraday hills, discovered In 1883 and lying be tween Mount Chaucer and Laura Ethel mountain. These hills are noted among oceanographers for the ntnount of wreckage of which they are the monument. There are cavernous depths, of course, In the Atlantic, as well as ma jestic heights. Four miles and a half may be taken to be the greatest. The average is probably about two miles. Heights and depths alike are merely hidden land, which may some day be exposed by the mighty workings of na ture. Meantime comparatively few changes occur. Beneath the ocean there are no frosts, no lightnings, no glaciers, no me teorological agents at work. If It were not for the eddies and the destruction nnd accumulation of nnfmnl life, these Atlantic hills and vales might rest as Immutable as the peaks and craters of the moon, where there is no utmos- - phere to cause decay. How German Potash Is Mined. Potash in Germany occurs in the form of a rock salt und runs In seams of .30 feet or more in thickness. As mined, ’t has about the same consist ency as rhe common rock salt of com merce and Its grinding is easy. It is ground to about the fineness of a coarse sand; in this form It is used for domestic agriculture and at the present time it Is also mostly exported In this form. The depths at which the true potash deposits are situated ren der It necessary to sink shafts leading to levels of as much as 5,000 feet be low the surface. Horizontal cuttings extend up to two miles In length. The miners themselves are, unlike coal miners, entirely free from the dan ger of fire damp. Occasionally dan ger arises from hydrogen, the blue flames of which may sometimes be seen flickering on the walls after a blasting operation In a newly opened mine. Sulphuretted hydrogen has caused the death of a few miners and carbonic acid gas renders suffocation possible. Heavier Trucks Coming. At a recent meeting of the Cleve- land and Detroit sections of the Ro clety of Automobile Engineers, P. D. Litchfield, n factory manager, express ed the belief that the heavy tonnage truck of the future would be some form of the multiple-wheel vehicle, just as the multiple-wheel freight car succeeded the single-truck type in the transportation of heavy loads. »Experi ments have been made with the six wheeled truck of this description, and the results are said to be very gratify ing, easier on both the tires and roada.

I ion-xvi de In st it action Czf The first newspaper to be printed on this continent made its appearance on Sept. 25, 1690. It was Benjamin Har ris’ Publlek Occurrences, published from the London Coffee house in Bos- ton. An account of Its first issue Is out- lined by George Henry Payne, In his History of American Journalism. I The author is a young man of long newspaper experience, having until re cently served the New York Evening Telegram In the capacity of dramatic editor. Mr. Payne is now a New York tax commissioner. The publisher of our first newspaper, In bls o[H*ning statement, announced that he would take pains to trace down the disseminators of any false or malicious reports. Then followed the news or "Occur- ences,” which—considering that this o was seventy yenrs after the landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth rock and two hundred years after the Invention of printing -shows that our pioneer journalist was not lacking In what Is now called news sense. We are inform ed that the christianized Indians In Plymouth had appointed a day of thanksgiving and their example Is commended to other non-Indlan neigh bors In a line that seems sarcastic. There Is a brief mention of the fact that two children had been stolen by Indians from the settlement of Chelms ford, the correspondent ami not the ed itor being responsible for the fact that the names are not given. From Watertown there Is communi cated the news that an old man (again the correspondent neglects to give the name), “having lost tils wife, fell into a fit of melancholy, during which the devil took possession of him, with the result that one morning early In the month he was found hanging In the cowbarn.” It is noted that the small pox Is abating In Boston, but that an other disease—seeming to be more or less of a malignant fever, not unlike the Influenza with which this genera tion is acquainted—is growing into a common thing, nnd the report states that 320 people had died by the last visitation of smallpox. o Two fires are reported, and with much feeling it Is noted that in one v* them a PRINTING PRESS (the cap itals are Harris’) had been destroyed. It was In his account of the battle with the French and Indians that Har ris printed news which was to be his undoing. Read even today his report of the expedition against the French and the use of the friendly Maquas by Gov. Winthrop Is not bad reporting when one considers that reporting had yet to be developed or even inaug urated. It was a report, however, that contained matters that the authorities were not desirous of having printed, 1 for it told how the Indian allies of the colonists had treated the French 8*o prisoners with great barbarity. DRY GOODS, Ready-to-Wear, Clothing, Furnishings and Shoes Since opening our store in Tillamook, prices have come down considerably. This in itself is proof that we lead and others follow. Now. please remember : We have only one price and it’s always the lowest, quality considered. We do not buy special « bargains or bankrupt stocks to bring prices down. Conducting [| sales of any kind is strictly against our policy. We don’t have □ to have any, as every day is bargain day at the J. C. Penney || Co.’s Store. a Buying for 297 stores enables us to buy for less than the one-store merchant. This alone would suggest a saving. Be 8* sides, we buy for cash and sell for cash, thus keeping down the overhead expense to a minimum. Every benefit we get, you in return derive, as we only want our legitimate profit. We attribute the success of our stores ‘‘to giving our pat rons honest merchandise for less money,” treating every person alike—your money is just as good as that of the man who has millions, “goods marked in plain figures.” There is no need of yon storing goods away until you need them, just because they are offered you at a special Sale. Supply your demands as you need them at the J. C. Penney Co. Store, and we assure you you will be money ahead. We cordially invite you to come in and make comparison as to quality and price, and we feel sure yon will be convinced that this store is the logical place to trade. J. C. PENNEY CO. INC.

In the first two yenrs of the war, the chronicler says, the Germans did not requisition much of the Belgian wine except at certain points, but they made Inven tory of all there was In sight or of which they learned, and as time wore on they grabbed It. One family near Blege had a large quantity of fine vint age Burgundy and the owner decided to take a desperate chance. It some times is wise to do openly what would he perilous to do secretly, so he cased up his wine, loaded It on trucks and carted It through the streets In broad daylight to an Ice factory. lie expect ed every moment he would be halted and called to military headquarters, but he was not. He got his treasure to the ice house and hid It away so well thnt It remained undiscovered un til after the close of the war. Then, when he was Impoverished otherwise, he dug it up and sold it at a glorious price, nnd now Londoners are smack ing their lips and blessing him for his cleverness.—Commerce and Finance. Machine to Sack Potatoes. Now that machines for digging po tatoes are in common use, the next step Is to provide automatic means for loading them into sacks. An Ohio Inventor has just developed such a mechanism, In the shape of a three wheeled trailer which attaches to the back of the digger, according to Pop ular Mechanics Magazine. The front wheel has a caster mounting, en abling It to follow the digger In turn ing at the end of a row. An elevated Inclined screen receives the potatoes from the conveyor of the digger. The sacks are hung on four hooks nt the rear, their bottoms supported by a small platform. ->o ♦ (c—;o •O' ANNOUNCEMENT I Wish to Say that I have taken the Agency for the Beemon & Sampson Tractors and Trucks Mr. Snyder is here to give you demonstrations on the Beemon.
