Save the Young Fir. , Slab wood will soon supplant second growth fir as fuel in this section, since the big mills have oegun the slaughter of the forests. Mr. Gerlinger, of Dallas, was in the city Thursday try ing to make arrangements with the local wood dealers to handle the by product of the mills ac that place. He thought they could furnish dry slab wood at $2 per cord, delivered here. Farmers, according to his way of thinking, could realize much better returns from their fir groves by work ing them up into railroad ties than by cutting them into cordwood. Mc Minnville Reporter.
