Otherwise go to an expert. He noted the two historical facts that seem to have a bearing on the stock market. The third year of every decade has been a down time on the stockmarket: 1933, mi, 1953, 1963, and following this trend then 1973 would be a down time. He also said that the market has gone down on every 3rd year of a second term president. What to do on a down market? One way is to watch and wait for it to go back up. He said that It goes down faster than it goes up. He showed by graph the high peak in 15 followed by 7 months that the market went down and the 15 months back up to a high peak in 1968. When It started down the next time it was 18 months to the low point before it started back up again and took 32 months to the high peak in January 1973. Investors pay a commission when they sell and-or buy. On a high or falling market, Scott urged investors to enter a guaranteed government posi tion. This is with US Bonds and treasury notes. They don't decline. "The government has never reneged." "The slock market should go up because the economy is robust and the Vietnam war is over but the negative factors predominate," he said. There's the rising Interest rate, Inter national monetary unrest and the historical factors, all a gainst rising market. He explained there couldn't be a repeat of the 1929 market crash because there are so many built in protections that are entirely different than In 1929. He urged those interested to be prepared to spend three to five hours daily studying the market or "put your money In the hands of an expert."

WICKIUP TIMBER SALE The proposed Wickiup Tim ber Sale, based on an analysis of the effect on the project area involved, is not expected to have a significant detrimental impact on the environment or ecology. There is however, as is the case in any activity, some minor adverse effect on the environment. But, if the prac tices and constraints outlined in this report are followed, this proposed sale will result in increased productivity of the area as a whole and provide a quality measure of multiple resource management. I. Description Selection and Justification for ....Sale This sale was placed on the Heppner District Timber Sale Five Year Action Plan as a portion of a planned sale program needed to maintain a sustained yield of forest pro ducts essential to the local and regional economy. Of equal importance was the need to initiate more intensive management of the timber stands in this area, including application of proper silvicult tural treatments. Within the sale area, 1,220 acres are planned for a regeneration seed cut, and 670 acres for complete overstory removal. Also of concern was the need to provide a permanent road system that would be beneficial in implementing total resource management of this area in cluding development of potent ial recreation sites, fire sup pression, and other similar activities. There are three basic types of timber stands within the sale boundary: Type 1 is a virgin stand of old growth ponderosa pine with very little understory ; Type 2, also a virgin stand, consists of a fully stocked immature stand of associated species understory with a scattered overstory of over mature ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir; and Type 3 is a lodgepole stand with a scattered overstory of associated species. Entries are planned in Types 1 and 2. Treatment of Type 3 will be delayed until the next scheduled entry into the area. Volume summary is as follows based on stand examination procedures and analysis: WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By Bernice Strawn "BY THE YARD, LIFE IS HARD, by the inch, it's a. cinch." Many young home makers in our Extension pro grams think this is a good motto for them. When you have many differ ent things to do, a lot of time can be lost worrying and wondering where to start. Take one or two jobs at a time--and finish them. Then you'll feel you've accomp lished something. If you'd like more ideas for getting your job done with the least worry, ask your county Extension office for a free copy of the bulletin, "Work Smarter Not Harder." TO PREVENT SEWING THREAD FROM GETTING CAUGHT in the notch of the spool on the sewing machine, place the spool so that the notch is not in the way of the unwinding thread, advises Oregon State University's Extension clothing specialist. On an upright spindle, place the spool with notch at the tip; when the spindle is below, place the notch down; when the spindle is horizontal, place the notch toward the fly wheel. USE SHATTER-RESISTANT BULBS for outdoor lights. They have a rubber-like coating that provides resistance to break age. The tough coating prevents flying glass chips if the bulb is accidentally broken. This bulb may also be used indoors. It is well suited for use in rooms where children play to provide safety from glass cuts. c READ WHY OUR MORTGAGE LOAN PLAN IS DCGTT FOR YOU!
