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’" and klndness "* «t» c re w On can rid e across th e c o u n try w lth - one occasion a tim id e ld e rly p a s -' o u t c h a n g in g cars, b u t Vi ou ca n ’t". continue to cut, slash, and destroy without thought of ^ T . ru L e m ‘ n ae d . h ‘ ‘* ‘ ‘- I W hy. 1 have signed d, tu rn c o n d u c to i A L ,,s ' the future. had c a rrie d hei luggage and e » -,o f e m ig ra n t's m ovables, liv e s to c k .

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.
