OUR TIMBER SUPPLY
Timber to keep the small sawmill operator going in this
section may soon be at a premium. The reason for this is the
enforcement of the provisions of the sustained yield basis, a
forward looking policy so far as conservation is concerned,
adopted by the forest agencies, which will insure a timber sup
ply for a limited number of operators in years to come, but may
spell the doom of a number of smaller mills as we know them
today.
In the past two years three substantial mills in this dis
trict have ceased operations. One burned down, one suspended
ami one is moving away. The three maintained a payroll of
150 men or better.
What does this all add up to? It means that in the future
we will get along with probably six or eight mills in this trad
ing area, now served by approximately twice this number. It
means further that the annual payroll will be reduced in pro
portion unless we can find more diversification to take up tin*
slack in the employment picture. By diversification we mean
industries other than sawmills, it might be woodworking in
dustries. wood waste plants, farming, dairying, mining, or
other industries connected with farming, mining or timber.
The problems of how to take up the slack in employment
can be solved by the community, if wo mean business and are
willing to work at the job. It won’t be solved by a bull session
of some organization, where there is a lot of talk and no action.
We have tried that for 50 years and it has not worked.

TO PREVENT THE BUM ’S RUSH
According to press reports the Jackson county chamber of
commerce proposed recently that foreign governments in need
of money sell bonds directly to the American people instead of
arranging loans from the American government.
Chamber directors asserted that “bankrupt foreign nations
. . . .are borrowing money for the purpose of advancing so
cialistic economics.” Bond sales, claimed the chamber, would
enable Americans favoring “said socialistic theories” to loan
the money, while those opposing could keep their hands in
their pockets,

tnttre MERRY CHRISTMASES
“SPARE THAT TREE!”
One tree, more or less, may not seem
important until it’s remembered that thousands
of folks have the same idea. There are plenty
of Christmas trees for everyone in this green
land, but to properly protect our forest re
sources, they should be scientifically harvested
. . . just as garden crops are thinned. In the
Aoods such work must be guided by experts if
wc are to enjoy the long-range advantages of the
millions of acres now in new young trees. Keep
in mind, too, that many thousands of these new
“tree farms” are owned in small plots by farm
ers of this area. It really isn’t fair to go into
such unposted lands and take crops that are
growing for the future of farm children. Will
you cooperate ... so that there’ll be many,
many Merry Christmases ahead for everyone in
this great wood growing country?
