Not more than 30 per cent of the timber in the forests of the United States is ever utilized as lumber, according to fig ures recently compiled by the office of Industrial Investigations of the forest service. Seventy per cent, chiefly In tops, limbs, stumps, bark, sawdust, slabs and small and defect ive trees, is for the most part wast ed. Of the wood In the Individual trees, 33.5 per cent is made into lumber, and of the logs which reach the mill 40.3 is worked up into lum ber. How this waste occurs Is well illustrated in the sew-kerf or saw dust, which averages 13 per cent of the log. This means that for every seven one-Inch boards sawed from a log, one board is wasted in sawdust. Responsibility for the waste of this important resource is not neces sarily placed upon the lumbermen, biit rather' upon the economic condi tions under which the industry is carried on. The sawdust and small er pieces, however, are not all wast ed. An increasing effort Is being made to utilize this 70 per cent, or 36.000,000 cords of wood. In 1915, 360,000 cords, having a value of $1,- 400,000, were used in the manufac ture of paper pulp alone. Large quantities of sawdust are now turned into grain alcohol. New uses for waste products are constantly being discovered. It is reported that dolls' heads are now being made from a composition of wood flour and rye flour. A planing mill company In California has dis covered a profitable use for odds and ends, such as are generally sold for fuel, under the name of mill blocks. It has established a shop for the manufacture of children's toys which It Is turning out by the carload. An other California plant is working up blocks Into dowels; another Into bee keepers' supplies. You will see a fine selection of agates at W. B. Pennlston's, 343 Main street. 29-3t Mr. and Mrs. E. E.

Soldiers From South Return to Northwest The third Oregon regiment, after spending about ten weeks In camp at three different places near San Diego, Is on Oregon soil again in the mobilization camp at Clackamas. The Washington regiment also came through this week on their return to the home state. The Oregon boys came through on four trains. The first of 21 cars arrived at 1 o'clock Monday and le. after a stay of 40 minutes. It car ried Col. McLaughlin and staff and Major L. A. Bowman, commanding the first battalion consisting of com panies A, B, C and D, with his com mand. The headquarters company and the machine gun company were also on this train, making a total of 20 officers and 440 men. The regimental band, which played several selections while the train stopped in Ashland, is a part of the headquarters company. During the following 16 hours the three other trains followed. The first of these had companies I, K. L and M, under command of Major Abrams; the next, companies E. F. G and H com manded by Lieutenant Colonel John L. May, well known in Ashland, and on the last train were the supply company, all the horses and mules, all camp supplies, all field and com bat wagon trains and the mounted detachment. This outfit was under command of Captain Hockenyos. W. H. Jenkins, traveling passeng er agent for the Southern Pacific, was In Ashland Monday attending to the handling of the trains. Fred Hansen, trainmaster, E. Stroud, road foreman of engines, and W. Garbe, M. F. McCarty and W. G. Chandler, all special agents, were also here to assist In seeing that everything was kept running smoothly. Three or four trains carrying the Washington regiment came through Ashland at intervals Monday and early Tuesday bearing the men to their home soil. In addition to the two regiments of Oregon and Washington troops ordered home from along the border Gen. Funston was directed by the war department to return to their state mobilization camps three regi ments from New York, two from New Jersey, two from Illinois, two from Missouri and one each from California and Louisiana. In all this makes about 15,000 national guards men to be sent back to their home states. The order for the return of the troops was announced by Secretary Baker after a conference with PresI dent Wilson at the White House. Earlier in the day the department ordered to their home stations about 0000 coast artillerymen who have been serving as infantry on the bor der. The secretary's statement as Is sued announced that, "in a few days, if transportation facilities remain undistrubed, the department Intends to order home some more regiments and possibly to replace them with troops now in their mobilization camps in the several states." In an interview with First Lieu tenant H. C. Brumbaugh, of Port land, assistant regimental adjutant he told many interesting things in connection with the stay of -the troops In Southern California. The following are a few of the sidelights supplied by the genial lieutenant "Colonel McLaughlin, in command of the Oregon regiment, is a regular army officer and knows how to get things. As a consequence the troops were well supplied at all times and fared the same as the officers. This course was decided upon at the out set and proved to be a wise one. The first camp was made at Balboa park. The soldiers marched a dis tance of 15 or 16 miles to the sec ond camp at Palm City and the third camp was made about 2 miles west of Palm City, at Imperial Beach. "Here the boys are getting things fixed up in fine shape not knowing but that they might be there for many weeks longer. The tents were supplied with electric lights, wooden chiffoniers and other conveniences. Soon they would haye had wooden floors. Every day the soldiers were subject to about ZM hours drill in the morning and In the afternoon all were free except the details. Several night maneuvers were held. The of ficers and non-commissioned officers had their school In the afternoon while the line officers did their studying In the evening. The entire soldiers of the regiment were camped together except the three outposts of one company each. "The whole body of troops march ed to the ocean twice a week for a bath in the surf. As an indication of the splendid health of the regi ment there were no fatalities, there was very little sickness and only 126 were sent home during the en tire time, for all causes, Including the married men who were relieved from duty at their request. "But very few cases of drunken ness were In evidence. When the regiment first reached San Diego there were three blind pigs there ready for business. The district at torney of San Diego county got to work at once pnd cleaned them out. He seemed to 1-now Just how to do It and his work was promptly ef fectual. "The men had lots of hard work and splendid training but were a little short on target practice which they expect to make up at Clacka mas." Lletutenant Brumbaugh Is of the opinion that the experlnece the men recleved In training Is equal to what they would get ln'flve years of arm ory work. He stated that, Troop A, Oregon cavalry, was on the way to Calexlco when the third Oregon regiment left for the north last Friday, also that Battery A, field artillery, remains In the south at the point to which they were first sent from Clackamas. Lieutenant Brumbaugh had a good deal of work In connection with the handling of the correspondence, which totaled 9,600 communications received, 80 per cent of which the colonel had to see, Portland Stockyards Weekly Report Cattle The week's trade began with only 950 head of cattle. Owing to a heavy demand for feeders the market was a brisk one and' bulk of stuff was taken early In the day. Ordinary and fair grades sold on a little higher basis, while best steers sold at $6.75 for several lots. Most of them sold at $6.50 to $6.65. Cows and heifers met good demand at steady prices. Hogs The hog trading was a slow affair today. There was a moderate run of 2,400 head. Prices were 20c to 25c under last week's close. Tops sold at $9.65, with bulk sales at $9.55 to $.65. Demand was limited. Last week closed with exceptionally large receipts for Saturday, 1,600 head being received. Sheep A very good demand con tinues for choice lambs and sheep. A load of choice lambs sold at an advance of 15c Saturday, bringing $8.45. Yearlings sold at $6.50, with bulk of ewes at $3 to $5.50. Linn County Plans Hard Surface Roads Albany, Sept. 7. Petitions are be ing circulated in the interest of the proposed system of hard surface roads in Linn county, one, which if carried out, will result In the coun ty having 200 miles of first-class road. Inaugurated by the granges of the county it has a backing that is bound to attract attention. The plan pro vides for hard surface roads along the main thoroughfares as feeders for the entire county, according to a plat in the hands of Surveyor J. R. Penland. M. S. Allen, of the grange, has been In the city today with petitions calling for the placing of the matter on the ballot in the November elec tion, authorizing the county court1 to levy a two-mill tax annually. Root Scores Incompetent Lawyers. President Ellhu Root of the Amer ican Bar Association pleaded for a weeding out of the unnecessary and incompetent among the 114,000 law yers In the United States In his an nual address at the opening of the meeting of that organization In Chi cago recently. " "It is true of the American people generally,""' said Root, "that too many of us have been trying to get something out of the country and too few of us have been trying to serve if." . Basing his plea for efficiency In the administration of the law upon the statement that we must get down to braes tacks in all our affairs If we're going to keep pace with Eu rope after the war, Root flayed our "cumbersome machinery of Justice" and called upon the lawyers to forget their selfishness and give the coun try a little service not only in law administration, but in law making. He said that as a rule only the youngest and least experienced law yers get into our lawmaking bodies, local, state and national.

Beneath the vault In what was the treasurer's office in the old courthouse building now being razed, M. Griffin, em ployed in tearing down the building has unearthed a coin bearing the date of 1726. The coin is evidently of German or Dutch coinage. It Is about the size of the American twenty-five cent pelce and is of nickel and silver composition. ' On one side is the figure of a man and a tree, and beneath are the let ters, "E. P. H." On the other side the words '1 Pfenning Schelde Mint, 1726," are clearly stamped in. No explanation can be given as to how and In what manner the coin got beneath the vault. Griffin has been on the constant lookout for more hidden treasure, but up to date has been unseccessful.
