LUMBERMEN MAY STEP IN
FURTHER IMPROVEMENT
FOR THEIR B2NEFIT.
TO
The council of OmKon Cltv and the
offlrluls of the Hoiithnrn I'aclllc Cn-
puny have failed to reach nn nxree
ment us to tlm terms of the ordinance
KruniliiK the rompany a franchise for
u nldltiK to permit the loudlni? of lum
ber in carload lots. Severn) months
uko the Stme lliillriiad Commission
ordered tho company to Install this
nltlltm, nrter a petition frmi the lurn-hermt-n
bud been present ml.
Tlm matter came up WiilimsJ.iy
nlcht nt a special meetlue nf the coun
cil nml was discussed nt IciiKih. but
no utiili'rstiindliiK was reached. Su
perintendent L. It. KlebU nml mi cn-
Kilmer went over tlm rrnitn.l enrlv in
the evenlnR with several m.tiihirn of
llm rouiirl) mid Mayor Carl!. The
council is willing to (rrant the fran
chise, hut nut for an unlimited peri
od, ns reiiuented hy the rompany, but
t tie city Insists that the company shall
stand the expense of the Improvement
or Sixteenth street from Main to Cen
ter. Tlm company Is willing to muke
fill lit feet wide on Center street
from Fourteenth street to Sixteenth.
but some of the eounclljnen take the
view that this would he narrow4 and
dmicerous. and If uny of the property
owners should construct sidewalks
aloni; the truck the 10 foot way would
tin narrowed to Hi feet und even less.
The council adjourned until next
Wednesday evening, when the propo
sition may come up for further discus
sion. The lumbermen may take a
hand and provide wuys and mentis
for the improvement , of Sixteenth
street for n distance of one block.
The Swift ordinance was not con
sidered Wednesday nlchl us Sir. Swift
was not present. There ar some
minor rluinccs that the council de
sires to make relative to tho grudlnK
of Kifth street.
WOOD- WASTE DECREASING.
Tlm waste wood lmnp continues to
diminish and pass away.
A Massachusetts mnnufacturer of
brushes recently made a discovery In
Maine which supplied him with ma
terial exactly suited to his purpose.
Me went to the I'ine Tree State to
buy wooil for tlm harks of hair brush
es mill the handles nf shaving brushes.
ond chanced to visit tho yards of a
spool maker who was using white
birch. The spool man took the white
part of the wood only nnd was throw
ing awny thn red hearts. Thousands
of cords had been burned or .lumped
In the lake to be rid of It.
Tlm red hearts were exactly what
the brush maker wanted, nml nt little
more than the expense of freight he
supplied his factory.
This is typical of the trend of man
ufacturing. Waste of wood is still
great, but it Is decreasing. What one
factory can not use, another turns to
profit. Formerly mills threw uwnv
half the forest tops left In the woods
sawdust dumped in streams to po
ntic tnem and destroy fish, slnbs burn
ed In perpetual bonfires, nnd defec
tive logs nnd low grade lumber uhnn-
donot! as not worth moving.
This policy does nut generally pre
vail now. Some mills have nut In
machinery to work up their own by
products, others sell their waste to
manufacturers who can use It. as In
tho case cited in Maine. The proper
ties nnd uses of woods are now sub
jects of cureful Investigation, and the
problem of turning to account the
odds nml ends and the by-products Is
Drought more to the front now than
formerly.
The X'nlted Stntes Forest Service
bus tnken up this study in a rnmnre-
nenstve nnd systematic way. Investi
gations of the woods of particular
stntes nre being conducted, usually In
co-operation with the states concern
ed. The plan, when fully curried out,
will Include every commercial wood

HAWLEY PAPER CO.
DEFENDS ITS CLAIMS
RESISTS SUIT OF THE CROWN
COLUMBIA IN DISPUTE OVER
RIGHTS OF WAY,
Mnny of the "old tlmahs" were In
evidence at the trial of the suit of
the Crown-Columbia Pulp & Paper
Company against the Hawley Pulp r
Paper Company. Clark N. Greenman,
Jameu W. Chase, I. Jacobs, Captain
Jobs T. Apperson and others were
present to give testimony to the loca
tion of roadways leading from Main
street to the Willamette River.
The suit went to trial Tuesday
morning before Judge Cleland. of the
Circuit Court of Multnomah County,
and when court adjourned only a por
tion of the evidence of the plaintiff
company had been Introduced, and the
trial of the case will probably not end
for several days.
The Crown-Columbia Company Is
suing the Hawley Company for block
ing up roadways, claiming a right of
way over the property. There nre
many side Issues involved in the cae,
which presents a knotty tangle. At
torneys Cake & Cake and Wirt Min
or, of Portland, appear for the Crown
Columbia Company, and the Hawley
Company Is represented by Attorneys
Warren A. Thomas, of Portland, and
C. D. Latourette of this city. Many
of the officials of the Interested con
cerns are In court watching the pro
gress of the case, among them being
W. P. Hawley. president, and R. E.
Bryan, secretary of the Hawley Pulp
& Paper Company; A. J. Lewthwalte.
general manager of the Crown-Columbia
Pulp & Paper Company; A. R.
Jacobs, president of the Oregon Qlty
Manufacturing Company. The latter
company also has a suit pending
against the Hawley Pulp & Paper
Company and the allegations are very
similar to the case now on trial.
COE REPLIES TO LOWNSDALE.
He Says the "Apple King" Is Not the
Only Pebble on the Beach.
CANBY. Or., August 10. (Editor
of the Oregon City Enterprise.)
Now, let it be known that Lownsdale
is notj the only pebble on the beach,
nor te only one raising commercial
apples. Neither does Hood River
raise all good apples. I have seen
Hood River apples on Ftont street In
Portland, five and six tier apples,
that were only ordinary apples and
the fancy prices said to be paid for
Hood River and Mr. Lownsdale's ap
ples. They are something like the
chicken men. They value their birds
at one hundred dollars apiece and
swap even. There is no harm in the
swapping, but It deceives the other
fellow.
Now we small growers cannot get
the price that the large orchardist
does. I will admit. I would like to
ask why not? Our apples ,ve as
good. We cannot all be state fruit
inspectors. Now Mr. Lownsdale ad
vised us at the Clackamas County
Horticultural meeting that conditions
were not the same In the valley as
other places, and that it was not nec
essary to spray for the moth before
the fifth of July, which Is a mistake.
I have a loss of 25 per cent of my
apples to show for the mistake. We
need to spray Ju.st as early in the
valley as other places, with all due
regard to Mr. Lownsdale's opinion to
the contrary notwithstanding. Two
years ngo he advised the cutting down
of our old apple trees as low as two
feet from the ground, which is cer
tainly a mistake, as even should you
get a graft to live the first time if
it was loaded with fruit it would
split off. We might start another
one. It would go the same way. I
saw the letter Mr. Lownsdale "sent
to our county fruit inspector. In re
gard to anthracnose dead spot pure
and simple, regardless as to big name.
He says: "Have them cut down
where they are infectious. " Bv the
eternal gods we are going to get rid
of them." I think out of competition
with commercial orchards. I have
had trees affected so I lost the tree
ami couiunt catch a sprout that
would live, and now I can show you as
fine a tree as you would wish to look
at and no dead spot "anthracnose."
It pretty near breaks my Jaw to pro
nounce It. My version of it is. It is
the same as the whooping cough or
measles with the human families. It
had its day and fs gone for the time
being at least. In the interest of het-
ter fruit and more of It among the
small producers.
