The move could be aimed at stopping “environmentalists” from jamming the sale of timber in legal challenges. Timber companies are concerned that if trees are left too long in the Siskiyou National For- est officials are pondering whether to seek an emer- gency declaration for the Biscuit Fire area that would put logging on a fast track, according to an As- sociated Press report. By using a new power granted by the Bush Ad- ministration, it’s possible that an emergency could PACK TO THE FUTURE - Rudy Stauffer (third from left), conducted a llama packing clinic on Saturday, April 17 at Forest Edge Farm on Takilma Road.

County’s jobless rate drops to 8.7% With addition of 250 nonfarm payroll jobs dur- ing March, Josephine County’s unemployment rate dropped to 8.7 percent with 29,443 persons work- ing, said Oregon Employ- ment Dept. (OED). The rate during Febru- ary was 9.4 percent. It was 10.2 percent during March 2003, said OED. This March, the manu- facturing sector led the way with a rise of 70 jobs. During the past year, pay- roll employment, said OED, has increased by 750, or an annual growth rate of 3.3 percent. During March, several “diverse manufacturing industries added to their payrolls, combining for a net increase of 70 for the month,” said OED. “Total manufacturing employ- ment has risen by 170 since March 2003,” the agency said. It added, “With the former U.S. Forest Indus- tries mill in Grants Pass being primed for a return to production under new ownership, further gains in the manufacturing sector are likely. “Construction employ- ment during March rose by 30, and has added 110 jobs during the past 12 months. “Building permit data continues to be strong, with data from the U.S. Census Bureau showing that there were 35 single- family home permits is- sued during February, up from 29 the same month a year ago. “Wholesale and retail trade combined for 40 new jobs in March. During the previous 12 months, trade employment in Josephine County has increased by 250 jobs. This sector em- ploys one in five payroll workers in the county.” Jackson County’s un- employment rate last month as 7.7 percent. The seasonally adjusted rate for Oregon was 7.2 percent. For the country the ad- justed rate was 5.7 percent. THE MARKET S OUTHERN O REGON ’ S U SED C AR & T RUCK H EADQUARTERS M OCK ’ S U SED C AR C ENTER SPECIAL PURCHASE!
