Sim Lindsey
At Fair Again
i Sim Lindtey, 74, regular
: patron o( the Oregon Slate
Fair for 83 year as driver,
trainer and supervisor of rac
ing atablei la again on hand to
allot stalls and accommoda
tions for those who enter ani
mals for racing events. This
years, says Sim not leu than
311 horses will participate in
track events and all barn
pace haa been tpoken for.
First entries ara expected to
arrive this week. -
Horses and racing seem to
be In Sim's blood by heredity.
His father. L. R. T ln..
drove race horses In state fair
track decades ago when the
race track was located about
where cars are now parked on
the 18th street extension. In
tnose day. it was a miie square
track, probably laid out In the
18701. and served until I..
pak track wis established,
aim recalls, about 18B0. A
single relic of square .'track
times remains in way of a
Jtand-pipe used to fill sprink
lers needed to water down the
course.
Besides being a driver,
trainer and breeder nf hnn
L. B. Lindsey was aherif nf
an Idaho county in the rough
and tumble mining time.
Lone Oak track where Sim
Lindsey first raced In 1900
was a mile course and named
for a lone oak that atnnrf n..-
the center of the oval. It was
regarded by driver a one of
tne line tracks in the West.
Then the ludaea aland mi In.
field rather than outfield at at
present. When the half-mile
track was laid out about 25
years ago it barely skirted the
one oax tree at Its northern
extremitv and t h krm.h..
were considered a hazard and
an aobitruction for visibility.
Authorities reluctantly con
tented to fall the tree that had
provided a name fnr T.nna -
track in 1890,
A few days ago Sim and a
Capital Journal man . looked
through the hia-h oraaa and
brush for the stumn of th
lone oak. The thicket there
abouts was so ImnenetrahU
that its nrectan Inratlnn onitirf
not be discovered but Sim re
called where he had seen it a
few years ago and, seated on
the track tmard rait.

You can insure tour home, your car and other
possessions against loss through fire or accident.
But there is yet no practical way forestland owners
can be protected through regular insurance policies.
Tree farm owners protect their woodlands from fire
by building fire roads and trails and by having
ample fire fighting equipment available. They ako
act promptly to check the spread of tree-killing
insects and diseases. This Company, for example,
maintains more than 3,000 miles of roads on our
tree farms over which fire-fighting equipment can
be dispatched quickly to threatened areas. We have
about 40 miles of fire hose, 185 vehicles equipped
for fire fighting, short wave radio communicating
systems and much other protective equipment.
This is the way tree farmers insure their own
forestlands. The money to carry on these pro
tective programs and to help pay for inevitable
losses must come out of income. Only a profitable
business can take these risks and assure continuing
wood supplies for generations to come.
