He want- ed billets of wood six inches square by 17*4 inches long— oodles of them. Needed them in Portland where he was process ing 35M board feet a day, and must have enough “stumpage” to run to 50M feet or better. He was scouring the coast for this material and said he thought he had established a good source in Brookings. Asked why he didn’t move his processing plant nearer the source, said his market was in the Portland area, but he might find it better to have it closer to the raw material sup ply. CAM ELI AS ARE BEING PROCESSED NOW — Nearly two thousand camelias have been put to bed in the lath houses at the Azalea Farm. At present they are mere “whips” which Gary Wimberly hopes to shape into real ornamental shrubs. They are a galaxy of varieties and should be ready for market in another year or so. The farm has been a principal source of azaleas going north into the area where the plants were destroyed by the early December frosts. Several thous ands of hydrangeas are also in process, from gorgeous blooming plants to dormant cuttings just getting ready for their seasonal growth. OTHER JOBS — A great deal of publicity has been given the hot search for technical college graduates, es pecially in the various engineer ing fields, and nothing has been said about the need for business staffs to keep them employed, and less yet, about those who may be called upon to carry on the work of both the engineers and executives. Neither has there been much publicity on the men and women who are to do the merchandising of their concen trated efforts. Possibly the lat itu d e of potential employment is wider the further one gets from concentrated knowledge on one specific topic, but all are needed in bringing that which, today, is but a scientist’s wildest vision to tomorrow’s acceptance as commonplace. The young folks, thinking on these lines, need not be so dazed as they stand on the platform, a fresh hign school diploma in their sweating hands. They will, eventually, find their place in the world, too.
