Construction Jobs Down During June There was a small decline in the number of building jobs started throughout the west in June, as compared with the jobs begun in June a year ago. This was reported this week by the monthly statistical survey of the western light construction jour nal. Western Building. The survey reported on the total number of building permits issued by 257 cities and counties in the west, together with the total dol lar valuation of those permits. In June, 1949 the 257 reporting cities and counties issued a total of 33,894 building permits. This was a decline of 5.9 per cent below June, 1948 when the identical cities and counties issued 36,046 permits. A significantly larger decline, perhaps revealing slightly reduced building costs, appeared in the to tal dollar valuation of the June 1949 building permits. The survey said that in June the total valu ation of permits was down 13.6 per cent below the same month a year ago. In June, 1949 the gross permit valuation of the reporting cities and counties stood at $157,164,734 in 1948 it was at $182,048,068. In the survey s tabulation of the 25 leading construction jurisdictions of the west an In crease was shown over May and and a decrease below June, 1948. These 25 leaders issued building permits valued at $103,559,046 during June, 1949. On May, 1949 they issued $99,902,063 in permit valuation while in June, 1948 they issued $110, 895,424, the sur vey stated. Thus, the June in crease of the 25 leaders over May amounted to 3.6 per cent, and the decline of .June under June, 1948 was 6.3 per cent. iRfjrlster-Ciiard, Eugene, Ore., Thurs., July 14, 1949 Page W Firm Features New Type Of Unbreakable Bottle A former Register-Guard em-! boiling water.

Milk Inspected More Of fen Local fieldmen in the 12 dis tricts into which the state is divided for the dairy sanitation work of the state department of agriculture are intensifying their activities, in line with the newly stepped-up program, says Joseph F. Nesbitt of Springfield. Nesbitt, fieldman for both Lane and Douglas counties, in enforcing the Oregon fluid milk laws, takes at least four samples of milk from each dairy farm every six months. These are sent to Salem for. bacteriological analysis to de termine compliance with the state minimum requirements as to bac teria content. Four Samples ' "We also take at least four samples of milk and milk products from every milk plant in the county," explained Nesbitt. "When conditions require it, more fre quent sampling and analyzing are done. Besides picking up samples, Nesbitt must make at least one complete sanitary Inspection or every dairy farm and milk plant in the county every six months and at least one sediment test every six months on the shipment of milk from each dairy farm.

Airport News Johnny paid us a visit at the Airpark last week and for once he wasn't "calling for Phillip Mor ris." Rather he was inventing all sorts of excuses for another air plane trip. Johnny really enjoyed the trip from Medford with pilot Merle Hough in Ed Johnson's Beechcraft Bonanza, and he liked the "bumps" best of all. Others who arrived in the Bo nanza with Johnny were Duke Young and William Boscow of the Eugene Exchange Club and Mrs. Horace Heidt. . Following a short time later was Melissa Smith, the Texas Songbird of the Horace Heidt orchestra, in a Fairchild 24 with Earl Brumwell, Roy Malos of the Exchange Club, and Norris Kaldor of Lane Aircraft Co. It was indeed a pleasure to visit with these three members of the Horace Heidt group. Without the slightest hurry to get on to their hotel, all of them wandered about the ramp of Lane Aircraft Co. posing for pictures wherever sug gested by the amateur photo graphers who were anxious to get snapshots of these interesting people. Several people from Eugene at tended the annual Optimist Club Air Show at the Dwyer Airport in Portland Sunday. Each year at the show the Dwyer Lumber Co. and other Portland aircraft own ers give 250 free plane rides to children. i 1 I !r W Although not traveling to gether. Earl BrurmVcll and Ed Johnson had the same Idea of how to beat the heat under which Eugene sweltered over the weekend. Brumwell In his Fairchild 24 and Johnson in his butterfly-tail Beech both made trips to the coast. Don't forget the International Model Plane contest this weekend. On Saturday the speed, stunt, and flying scale events will be at the baseball field at the University of Oregon and Sunday free flight events will be at the Mahlon Sweet Airport. NOTICE that the Sunday program is NOT at the Airpark as previously announced. Latest addition around Green's Flying Service is an amphibious jeep used for servicing their float plane on Fern Ridge Lake. Inci dentally, Green's furnish free taxi service from their office on the Airpark to the lake for those in terested in flying the float plane. Don Breedon and Earl Snyder, The Lane Aircraft Co., located at the north end of the Airpark, olficially opened its doors for business July 1. Owned and oper. ated by Norris Kaldor and Clyde Pre&ton, the new company is licensed and equipped to furnish all kinds of aviation service flight, sales, service, and repair. The airpark manager, after get ting a minimum price of $250 for materials to construct a segment ed circle marker, decided to util ize discarded truck tires. Now the Airpark has a first-class segment ed circle around its traffic tee to more clearly indicate to pilots the directipn of traffic on the runway and all at a cost of approxi mately $5 for paint. .
