LONGVIEW. wh destroyed as useless waste, the bark of trees processed in a hugh umber mill here is being made into ingredients for phonograph records, explosives, . adhesives, plastics and scores of other com mercial Droduntc. The Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. announced Friday that it had per inea a process i or complete commercial-utilization of Douglas fir bark, which roughly is 12 per cent of the log. This is the first time bark lias been fully utilized on a commercial basis, and is a solution to an expensive waste problem for the lumber industry.

Heritage, technical di rector. I "Commercial ' utilisation of bark not only marks another step In the attempt to use for 100 per cent of every log taken from the forest, but converts a one-time expensive waste pro-' duct Into a profit," Heritage added. After years of laboratory ex perimentation and pilot plant manufacture, commercial produc tion fii.A nnmnn,,n1c i.Tara otit mA ihie .nrlnn Th.o all r. ! ments in bark fork, fiber, powder' and combinations of these ele ments. The finished product ranges in size, from quarter-inch flakes to a very fine powder. Only the thick bark of the Douglas fir' is being processed, but the barks of all Pacific coast coni fers can be put to use through similar processes, Heritage said. The first plant is processing only a small part of the bark taken from logs brought to the Long view plant, but ultimately all of the former waste product will be utilized, sain ft. D, Pauley, sales director. As new commercial uses are found for the compounds and combinations, it is possible that no bark will be allowed to go to waste in any timber processing plant, he added. The compounds are manufac tured through an intricate grind ing, crushing and screening pro cess that separates the cork, fiber and powder. Alaska Fights Forest Blazes ANCHORAGE, Alaska (U.S) Alaskan forest fire fighters Friday began to bring four major forest fires under control near here. The two largest firer were in the big .Tame country of the Kenai Peninsula and along the Palmer1 Highway, 18 miles frJfn Anchor age, where the fires near the homesteads started by veterans have consumed an estimated 22, 000 acres. The Kenai Peninsula fire, with both sides of the Hidden Lake area ravaged, appeared to be slowly dying. Fires were now in brush and not leaping from tree top to treetop as during the past several days, according to H. R. Robinson, Alaska lire control sys tem chief. Three Army fire fighting crews fighting the Palmer road fire may be able to quit today after bull dozing trenches to halt the ad vance of the flames. Alaska Road Commission men had their first rest in eight days after being pressed into service on both major tires. Two other fires, in more remote areas, seemed burning out accord ing to Alaska bush pilots. More fires were expected because of dry weather and low precipita tion in the interior of the terri tory and the anticipated usual summer lightning storm.
