' Farm Editor, The Statesman
: LumbenniUs r in "the Willam
ette Valley have begun to cold
deck logs to tide over the fire
season, F. H. Dahl, Corvallis, re
ported Tuesday as he said that
we no sooner get out of the
rainy season until we drop Into
the dry season,"
"There just isnt any in-betweens,"
he commented.
: But good logging weather is
now allowing more loggers in the
woods, and log supplies have
i picked S up considerably permit
Jting the cold decking of logs.
' Jlills opened up a-booming this
week following the quiet of last
week as many mills were shut
down for vacation r
Bange from $36-$43
Second-growth Number : 2
Douglas fir , sawlogs at valley
mills ranged from $36 , to $43
a thousand,- mostly $38 to $40,
during the first two days this
week, Dahl said. He reported No.
3s were from $30 to $3& Camp
run logs over 24 feet were $35
to $35 while eight-foot logs rang
ed from $5 to $17 a cord, or
$30 to $36.50 a thousand.
Old-growth sawlogs have been
running from $40 to $50 a thou
sand for No. 2's this week and
$35 to $40 for No. 3's. Peeler
logs sold within a $20 range up
to -top prices of $80, $100, and
$110 in the northern end of the
valley, and $75, $85 and up to
$100 in Lane County. -Bosebnrg
Price
In the Roseburg area camp
. run prices ranged from $36 to
$42 for long logs and $34 to $38
for shorter logs. Peelers ran
from $60, $70 and up to $85 a
thousand.
Demand for poles and piling
has been uneven in recent days
in the Willamette Valley. Most
yards did take long poles. Fifty
five foot peeled poles ranged
from 25 to 34 cents a lineal
foot, depending on diameter. One
yard at Roseburg paid 28 cents
a foot for 55 to 72 foot piling.
Demand wasn't too brisk for
unpeeled hemlock, spruce or true
firs, offers being at $15 to $17
a cord.' Unpeeled Douglas fir
was $15.
Albany Mill Pays $34
Alder, ash and maple at Port
land were $34 a thousand for
logs over eleven inches in dia
' meter. Smaller logs brought $30.
Lebanon paid Portland prices for
alder and maple. One mill at Al
bany paid $34 for alder and ma
ple logs down to 10 inches.
Sword ferns, one of the 'big
forest products in the valley,
dropped from 18 to 16 cents a
bunch, last week and went down
to 14 cents over the week-end,
where it now stands. Dry cas
; car a bark was going at 20 cents
a pound. Split and peeled cotton
, wood for excelsior ' was $14 , a
cord at Springfield.
Dahl pointed out that aside
from logs and poles, Willamette
Valley has quite an interesting
' array of forest products which
are in rather good demand Am
ong these are the sword ferns,
the cascara bark, the evergreen
huckleberry.
The farthest faint star which can
be seen by the Palomar telescope
is believed to be seen by light
which has been traveling toward
the earth for two billion years at
the rate of about 186,000 miles a
second.
