TIMBER SALVAGE
That the salvation of the lumber industry lies in uti
lization of what are today known as waste products is
a recognized fact.
The catch to putting this fact into operation has
been in the past the high cost of conversion which has
made salvage operations uneconomical.
Ashland is one of the cities in the Pacific Northwest with
which today has a large lumber payroll. Lumbering is
presently providing the majority of industrial workers
in this area with jobs. The question is “what will hap-
pen tomorrow,” Tomorrow will be upon us before we
are ready for it if lumber operators and timber owners1’"

prelogging, clean logging, and relogging be standard

Just out this week is Bulletin No. 1, of the Oregon
Forest Products laboratory at Oregon state college.
The bulletin, which was written by Elmer E. Matson,
forester with the United States Department of Agricul
ture forest and range experiment station in Portland,
and John B. Grantham, associate professor of wood
products at the college, is devoted to describing the lat
est and most economical methods of carrying on the
operations of prelogging, clean logging, and relogging.
With present logging methods the surface of usable
timber has been scratched but there remains 27' > of
net board foot volume of standing timber which is left j
to rot or burn. Per acre this salvagable material runsi
to about 10,000 board feet of sawlog type material plus,
10 cords of small stuff.
Low cost production can make or break a logging
outfit. The smart operator, the one who is looking !
ahead, will find some way to use salvageable material, I
for tomorrow, this 27'c of waste can mean the differ-}
ence between profit and loss.

The second one: “that other Southern Oregon com

er, and pay-off better” is important. I t’s too bad in a
college town of 700C inhabitants a large enough crowd
won’t turn out for the home town football team’s home
games to make the games pay off; especially when that
team is one of the nation’s outstanding football clubs.
That’s one for the books.
There is no fault to be found anywhere. It’s just a
sad situation. Southern Oregon college, which used to
be Southern Oregon college of education, doesn’t have

Once the alumni get rolling, get the old college feel
