‘BETHLEHEM’S LIGHT CHRISTMAS MUSICAL’ was performed
at Community Bible Church Sunday evening, Dec. 11 by an
all-congregation choir. The narrator (left) was Dave Winches-
ter, and the director was Tom Ninow. The performance was
well received. The photos were taken during the final re-
hearsal. ‘I.V. News’ could not attend the actual performance
because Bob and Jan were taking their daughter and grand-

Lumber firms log in to rebuild fort
The National Park Service (NPS) has taken delivery of approxi-
mately 420 donated Douglas fir logs for rebuilding Fort Clatsop.
The new fort will replace an earlier replica, built near Astoria 50
years ago and destroyed by fire Oct. 3.
Lewis and Clark and members of their Corps of Discovery built
the original Fort Clatsop for quarters during the 1805-1806 winter af-
ter completing their expedition to establish a route west to the Pacific
Ocean.
Forest products companies that contributed and delivered logs for
the rebuild are Stimson Lumber Co., Longview Fibre Co., Hampton
Affiliates, and Weyerhaeuser Co.
The companies delivered the logs to the Clatsop County Fair-
grounds near Astoria Thursday, Dec. 1. The Oregon Forest Resources
Institute organized the contributions using log specs provided by NPS.

More ag data available rapidly at new Website
A newly redesigned Website has been
launched by the Oregon Field Office of
USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Ser-
vice (NASS): nass,usda.gov/or.
“More agricultural data now is available
at your fingertips,” the agency said.
The NASS Website, including pages for
its 46 field offices, has been revamped to bet-
ter serve the needs of NASS customers --
whether farmers, researchers, government
officials, journalists, teachers or others.
“NASS continues to strive to meet the
needs of all of our data users,” it said. “The
new site will further our mission by provid-
ing an abundant resource of statistics in ser-
vice to Oregon agriculture,” said Bruce Ek-
lund, deputy director of the NASS Oregon
Field Office.
“Those interested in Oregon or U.S. agri-
culture will find the new site informative and
easy to use.” added Eklund. “The NASS
Web development team incorporated a vari-
ety of Web-based tools to enhance the site.”
The site continues to provide compre-
hensive statistical data on Oregon agriculture.
Features such as the Quick Stats Agricultural
Database provide up-to-date state and county
agricultural statistics.
Data users can search for state and
county level data by commodity and
download information for use in a database
or spreadsheet.
