TMI AUTOCRAT IN WAR, IU Utility Shawn by the tent MIL lUry Mansuvera In Pranea. The fact that tilth, a hundred thou sand horaea perished In the South Af loan cam pal Kn la enough to male one pause and ponder aerlously over any possible escape from ao appalling ft waste of human aubatance, aaya a tendon newspaper. Be that as It may, there are no two opinion aa to one net that whatever tha fighting force, the mean of providing them with food must be aa efficient, rapid and certain as possible. It Is here that the auto car must triumph all along the line. After the French maneuvers were con cluded there was no longer room for doubt A force of 100,000 men has been victualled with an ease aad ra pidity hitherto unknown, and It la ex pected that ordera for automobile wa gons will be Issued from the French war office on a liberal scale. Tho chief factor In the undoubted efficiency of tha automobile service has been the "train 8cotte," a steam-propelled wa gon which has worked wonders. The Dietrich and ranhard lvessor trucks bare also established their utility. To show the vital difference between mechanical and animal traction It Is only necessary to mention that the Scotte motor, drawing ten trucks, can feed an army of 72.000 men and with only two men In charge of the con voy. With animal traction no fewer than 38 horses would be required, even If the roads were perfect and enough men to lead them, while even then four daya would be necessary to com plete the ground that the Scotte con voy effected In onel Experiments are now being made by the French In their submarine boats with a material called "oxyllthe." a new chemical compound which liber ates oxygen freely when mixed with water. This not only purines the air, but It burns up all animal Impurities. In addition, experiments are being made with a new motor to which oxy lithe furnishes the fuel. If thla proves successful and the proBpect la at present favorablo the motor will do for both surface and underwater run ning. Much more powerful machinery can be installed, and a lane Dart of the heavy electric batteries can be re moved. It Is estimated that the Journey be tween London and Parla will be short ened by 20 minutes by the use of cratea for passengers' luggage, experi ments with which were made recently at Calala.

Oregon's Timber Belt. The greatest timber belt In the world la to be found In Western Ore gon and in Washington. According to government! reports Oregon has about S35.OOO,OO0.OliO feet of atandlng timber, mostly fir, cedar, hemlock, spruce and larch. As there Is now cut in the State about a billion feet an nually there Is still enough timber left to last for several hundred years at tho same rate of cutting. For ship building, masts, bridge timbers, car sills and other needa demanding a combination of great length, strength, durability and lightness the Oregon fir is unrivaled. Government tests show that under pressure It has nearly twice the strength of oak and three times that of pine; From each of the five continents the demand for It la continually Increasing. The Qerman Emperor's new yacht has Oregon fir for Its masts and booms, and the royal standard on Windsor Castle floats from a flagstaff of the same wood.

Elsie De Wolfe may not be a great actress, but she has earned the grati tude of everybody save the doctors by advocating tho short skirt for women in business. Miss Do Wolfe Is sup posed by the press agent to be an au thority on fashion, nnd If she can help en tho vogue of dresses which clear the street she will have done so much good that sho Is fairly entitled to the free ad vertisinglike this which she gets out of It. She Is said to have posted on bur call board a rule that all tho women of her company shall go to the theatre In short skirts. In explanation she said that she was forced to adopt such a rule when her company was on the road to protect tho health of her ac tresses; that railroad statlous, sldo walks and thentres lu small towns were so dirty that not until she estab lished the reign af short skirts wero the members of her compauy to be de pended upon. The actress added that the only wom an who bad any business to wear a long skirt on tho street was tho woman who rode In her carriage; thnt Is, the woman who bas no business and so Is privileged to humor her whims. The women who ride In carriages here are a minority that do not count, so far as street fashions go. The long skirt, which was made for thorn In Paris, is adopted here by women who must walk or ride in street cms, under the Impression that when they wear car riage dresses peoplo cannot tell them from women who have carriages. Af ter tbey have worn their long skirts about twice on the street the distinction la clear to the most unobservant Af ter a gown has been trailed through the mud for a fortnight the tense of smell reveals the fact that if it was made for a carriage it never saw the inside of oue. The long skirt In this country li a silly affectation. Perhaps it has some aubtla connection with tho notion that because an American wom an who walks U "Just a good" as tU one who rides she ought to wear tha same clothes. Sensible women ought to quit It, If the women who bar plenty of places for 1 their Irnliifd gowns Would keep them carefully oil the street perhaps their sisters for Whom the big storrs nre their chief parade ground would follow the good example.
