V 1 Jet Boat Used To Haul Tractor Up Rogue River O'Dell (Deak) Miller of Glendale, who operates the Paradise Bar Ranch on the Rogue River, recent ly had a two-ton tractor brought 60 miles up the river by jet boat lor use on the rancn. It was considered a milestone in Rogue River use, since, in the past, only small capacity boats were able to navigate the river. The delivery was only part of the job, however. Miller had to maneu ver the tractor up a 150-foot bluff by hand-powered winch from the beach delivery point. He is going to use the tractor to cultivate sweet corn and other truck garden prod ucts for summer guests. The same jet boat which brought the tractor will now be used to bring sightseers, campers and fish ermen to tne raramse liar nanen Candy Maker Seeks Helper To Learn Trade Chris Shaffer has been a candy maker all his life.

Accommodations At Lemolo Lake Not Yet Ready Completion of accomodations at Lemolo Lake, scheduled for July 4, has been delayed until about the middle of July, developer Don Wil son of Roseburg has informed Glide correspondent Mrs. Arthur Selby.

There also has been some delay in receiving "A" frame beams for the lodge structure, because of the time required for drying the tim bers that make them up at a Springfield plant. Two ol tne cigni camns are com pleted and work is going ahead on the lodge building. The latter will include a grocery store, restaur ant and lounge, with rest room fa cilities. There also will be a serv ice station, which may be com pleted earlier. Fishing has Been reponca gooa at the lake, the main catch being German Browns, running 18 to a inches in length.

The actual candy making Is a skilled job, requiring years of train ing from rccipics some of which are his own secret formula. Ha Rtntari his mnrlrrttinf flrnit tc almost unlimited, depending upon I his ability to produce. That is why 1 he is looking for an assistant to i join him in the business and learn the trade. He said he has one man in mind who may be the answer, but full arrangements have not been made. Shaffer currently employs three persons, working five to seven hours a day. At Christmas time he produces additional amounts of box ed chocolates in 1, 2, 3 and 5 pound sizes and sometimes needs extra help. He could double production with another candy maker, he states, and that in turn would re quire additional helpers on his payroll. Standard Equipment His equipment consists of stand ard candy making equipment, in cluding cooking vats, marshmallow and cream beaters, slabs to pour the candy on, and other utensils. Shaffer started in candy making as a young man in Milwaukie, Wis. Later he went to Los An geles, where he operated a candy shop, producing many candy lines, for 18 years. But he decided he wanted to get out of the busy city. He found Roseburg to his liking, both as a city in which to live i and because ot the favorable climate. He moved Here 10 years ago, and after about four years resumed his lormer profession. He operated for DIPPING CHOCOLAIES Pearl Jenkins and Billie Wonser, above, ore shown dipping, chocolates, an oquired art in candy making. They work for Chris Shaffer, who operates Rancho on SE Main St. ot SE Washington Ave. a time in one building in the east Roseburg area, then moved to his present location in the former Dale's Cafe building. His is the only candy making business of its type in this aroa, and is typical of a small-time in dustry found in many large cities but of which there are so very few in the Roseburg area.
