Our emotions are mlacd In that we feel that Duncan as U . S. Senator would perhaps do a better Job for Jackson County as his Interests are here. On the other hand, we don't wish to appear selfish and Inconsiderate of the w el fare ol the state of Oregon.

Low elevation trees are especially heavy with cones, while the crop is medium to good, but spotty In elevations above 3,000 feet. Douglas fir seed is in great demand for re - ‘orestatlon purposes, es pecially since reserves have been seriously de pleted by continuously r e peated poor cone crops. Ripening of the cones is expected toward the middle of August. It will begin firs t in the lower eleva tions of southern Oregon and as the season progres ses, the ripening process w ill extend Into the higher elevations and northward. Cone pickers are cau tioned that a new program of seed source certifica tion was adopted this year by most cone buyers. Con tact with a local cone deal er for official seed source labeling Instructions is suggested. A check of the desired origin, seed county requirements, and prices being paid for cones can also be made at this time. Written permission of the land owner must be ob tained to collect cones on his property. A harvesting permit for this minor fo r est product Is also needed and can be obtained from any state or federal fo r est officer. Inquire Into the fire regulations and per m it closures while obtain ing this permit. Forest fire hazard Is now extreme. Be sure to test the con es for ripeness and seed county before picking, and ver dally to the dealer • -'»•event spoilage.
