Hv J I STINK WKATHKHFOHI) If you have driven or walked along North Gale Strwt in the last five years you have undoubtedly noticed many changes that have taken place at No. r!H), the house with the stone fireplace chimney and planter at its front, which is at the lower end of Water Street Old timers call it the Joe Nyes house after the attorney who lived there many years back, but for the last five years it has ix'en the home of Verne and Ginger Keithley and their family. The young Keithleys are Ruth Ann K. Lynch. 23, who now lives on uper Willow Creek; Linda Keithley, 21. who has her own apartment in lleppner; Suzanne, 1H. and Jay, 16, who are still at home Sunny, the purebred cocker, is a nice Keithley, too. The completely modernized home and the attractive vard surrounding x it are entirely "do it yourself" efforts, main ly by the Keithley parents, both of whom are employed in Heppner. Verne has been with the Kinzua Corporation for many years, and Ginger works at Coast to Coast Hardware They hauled the attractive rocks from Opal Butte from which they built the fireplace and chimney and the planter which now holds red and white petunias, some nasturtiums and several creeping junipers. A super feature of this delightful home is the spac ious deck off the dining room at the back, along the Willow Creek side Ginger says "we live on that deck during warm weather." At the side of the deck is a large flower bed of assorted flowers which also holds a new red maple tree which Verne gave (linger last Kaster.

The most serious of her injuries is a broken neck. She is still in critical condition. Mr. and Mrs Dale Mont gomery have been in Irngon the past week, closing out business affairs at their house on 9th ST. They are now living in Idaho near Sun Valley, where they are managers of a resort ranch Hecerit visitors at the Har vey Warner home were their daughter and son in law, Mr. and Mrs i'ontelis Vrontakis. They left their young son Michael to visit for two weeks, returning for him later which add privacy to the deck. The larger evergreen which is visible from Gale and from Main Street is the one the family lights up at Christmas time. When the Garden Club Yard Selection Committee chose the Keithley yard the family was vacationing up at Bull Prairie Uke in their 5th-wheeler. They were taken by surprise by the sign which John Edmundson of the C. of C. had planted in their planter. Some who recall when Verne and Ginger lived at the top of Baltimore Street will remember the great rock garden and the beautiful yard they maintained there. They are surely experienced and excellent homemakers and gardeners. The garden club salutes their superior efforts. Close to Home... Mary Ann Cerullo It's been over a month since "Close To Home" has exc hanged household and garden hints with its readers.

Will they topple the timber industry? The news is depressing. Mills are closing or cutting back. Men and women are out of work, and their communities share the distress. When people can't buy homes because of high interest rates, the forest products industry suffers. On top of all this, some people claim Oregon's timberlands have been overcut, and that the in dustry is literally 'going South.' It's not true: Oregon has more standing commercial softwood than any other state more than all thirteen Southern states combined. And the current housing slump won't con tinue. There is a need a demand for housing that must be met each year. Right now, high interest rates are throttling that demand. However, there will be a surge in new home construction to make up for homes not being built now. That time should come fairly soon. When it does, will the timber supply be adequate? The answer is a qualified 'yes.' The trees are there, but Oregon's timber supply depends largely on the forest management policies of the U.S. Forest Service and the federal gov ernment. Federal policy has caused a serious pro duction imbalance be tween government managed lands and privately-managed lands. As an example, in western Oregon 46 of the standing timber is in the National Forests. Yet they produce only 27 of the harvest. On Total U.S. Timber Demand, 1976-2030 1976 26 24 ; 22 i 20 18 16 14 12 1980 1990 2000 Souna: Foitu Scivkc, USDA The Forest Service, USDA 1980 Assessment projects that total demand will nearly double between 1976 and 2030. the other hand, the forest products industry has only 24 of the standing timber but supplies 5 1 of the harvest. If this imbalance continues, timber shortages are a possibility. There are three main questions to think about: 1. Should the U.S. Forest Service harvest more old-growth trees? 2. Should the National Forests be managed more intensively? 3- Should more forest land be added to Oregon's Wilderness system? We think it's especially important for people who work or live in communities with forest products operations to take part in the public discussion of these questions. Over the next three weeks, you'll see news paper ads like this one that concentrate on each of the three questions that affect timber supply in Oregon. We hope these ads will encourage you to write us for more information. We'll also provide you with the mailing address of an organiza tion with an alternative point of view. How questions about timber supply are an swered will affect your community. We hope you'll take the time over the next few weeks to evaluate the issue for yourself. Together we can keep a good thing growing. OREGON FOREST INDUSTRIES COUNCIL. 2010 2020 2030 TOTAL HARDWARE : w oib-w rs. W1H iiMiiw.ni Ml. .
