t r COUNTY ROAD BUILDING (Continued from page one) turns out about 400 yards of the best crushed rock to be found on the coast. The rock is very hard, and shows the presence of iron, and is used on all the roads in the south part of the county. A huge shovel hoists it to the elevators of the plant where it enters the crusher atiu is elevated to the first story bins, and thence goes into the big auto trucks through a chute for distribution on the roads. Considerable of this pro duct is being used by the state in its surfacing and patching work. A force of thirty-five men are employ- . d at this plant, in the crushing and distribution work. The foreman is Bob Howard, and there are two day shifts. Located at Cloverdale is the new ly constructed toolshed for road dis trict No. 3, which is 50x80 feet, with four huge beams for hoisting purposes. The room is ample for storage purpose, and this is one of five other like sheds in the county, the largest one being located in this city. When not in use all county equipment is stored in these sheds, and the county has found that it pays. Beyond Cloverdale occurs a new piece of road which has just been opened to travel known as the Dan iels-Werschkull cut-off, which saves over a half mile of travel on the road to the beach. A new tempor ary bridge has been constructed over Clear creek for winter travel which will next season be replaced with a concrete structure. This new road Is perhaps the most important change made in the southern part of the county this year. As is well known tc older resi dents of the county, Tillamook is divided into three large t’oad dis- tricts. No. 2 is taken care of by deputy county roadamaster Henry Nelson, while Forrest Ayers looks af ter the work In district No. 3, with headquarters at Cloverdale. The county has just purchased two loadometers which will save time in weighing loaded trucks where the county is selling rock to the state. The county is also considering the matter of regulating travel on some of the side roads during the wet weather period, believiing that the in terests of the whole number will be conserved, except those who put off heavy hauling until the bad weath er sets in. One thing noticed by the reporter was that there seems to be no lost motion In the work, and that from the Roadmaster down, there is a live interest in pushing the work, and that there seems to be a real spirit of co-operation from the shovel-man up.

WATER PRESSURE AVERAGES ONLY ABOUT 25 POUNDS SAW BIG PLOT IN FOOTBALL The water pressure is ranging per ilcusly low these Jxyi. The readl. g which is posted daily at the engi’ e houee shows'that 25 pound* Is about the average present water pressure. On last Saturday at 7 a. m. (heie was 30 pounds; at 5 o’cb <k p. m. the pressure vzas 25 pounds. The normal pressure for fire purposes is about 95 pounds, and the present pressure would make operation of the big fire engine practically impos sible from the water pipes supplying the town from the reservoir. In case of a fire, a line could be laid to the slough which would give protection to the business part of the city, but would noj be avail able for the protection of the resi dence districts of the town. The only aid in the latter case would come from the chemicals, which would only be of value in the incip ient Btages of a fire. This is the condition now facing the city. It would seem that more water for fire protection is now a crying necessslty. The above figures may be verified at the engine house from the daily posted records of wa ter pressure, which any one may see.

One Turk, Itechad Bey, tried it with a re sult weird enough to serve as a basis for a detective story. It api**nrs that the young Turk had I organized a football team among his friends, together with some Greeks and Armenians, and began practicing. Shortly thereafter. In the middle of the night, police came to his house and carried him off to Scutari. There he was submitted to a long examina tion as to tile club and the game of football. The authorities were convinced that they had found a great plot, and that the club must be a secret society. A special messenger was sent for the ball, and that was duly examined and found to be an Infernal machine. The rules of the game were considered to be another piece of damning evidence, and still worse were the sweaters and colors of the club. After long deliberation the culprit was sent to the higher police authori ties in Stamboul, who went through a second long examination and came to the conclusion that the empire had been saved from disintegration by the early discovery of a great plot They dispatched the whole matter to be in quired into at the sultan’s palace at Ylldlz, and a special commission took the matter in hand. After much careful thought and ex amination of the evidence of the crime It was decided that there might be nothing in It, but that it must not be committed again. F-O.B.

A coal-tar chemical for the elimina tion of all pain In dental surgical op erations, simple of application and suitable for repeated and universal use In oral surgery, according to the Scientific American, Is announced by Dr. Joseph A. Klein of New York city. f This new chemical Is liquid In form, is applied on a pellet of cotton to the gum or mucous membrane surrounding the tooth to be anesthetized or Into a cavity prior to excavation where a tooth Is to be filled or treated. It produces complete local anesthesia In from two to eight minutes and eliin- lnntes all feeling for from one to six hours. Doctor Klein ha, extracted teeth and pulps painlessly by the use of this chemical. Its effect is entirely local, so it may be applied with perfect safe ty, regardless of the patient’s age or general physical condition, and it is particularly valuable as an anesthetic in the extraction of children's teeth. It lenves no disagreeable after-effect, but because of Its long period of ac tivity gives the nervous system ample time to recover from the shock of op eration before the nerves in the area of the operation regain their normal feeling or activity. •> CKeer Up!

Volcanic explosions are commonly regarded as the release of stores of energy kept confined by external pres sure. and holler explosions and geyser eruptions are typical of this class of outbreaks. An expert of the United States geophysical laboratory finds that another class of explosions, that of explosive mixtures like gunpowder, are not likely to occur in volcanoes. But a third class, that of explosive compounds brought Into contact with oxygen or water, is more probably the usual source of volcanic explo sions, and is Illustrated by aluminum sesquloxlde — finely divided — brought Into such relation with water in the electric furnace that mechanical deto nation causes violent explosion. The dust of Mont Pelee may have been analogous to the aluminum sesqui- oxide. Australia’s Geographic Position. Australia's exact position on world maps, originally determined by Cap tain Cook, the early explorer, was brought into question recently when wireless authorities, after direct check ing by radio with standard time clocks at Lyons, France, said they be lieved there is an error of perhaps 100 yards on all maps in Australia’s north-south lines. Seafarers who first sketched Alis- tralia's position based tlielr calcula- tions on the chronometer, the finely made watch which keeps Greenwich time. Corrections were made from time to tlqie, until final checking by cable was believed to be accurate. Lately, however, Sydney wireless men who have been listening to the clock ticks at Lyons, say they have discovered there Is a perceptible loss of time in transmitting the correct seconds over the cable.
