OF
KEEPING UP ROADS
At the Klwanls meeting Monday
uoon, Paul Rynnlng. county engineer,
gave a very comprehensive review of
the work done by the county court on
roads the past ten years and told of
the five-year program on oiling roads
which began this year.
Mr. Rynnlng anld when he was
chosen engineer 10 years ago there
were 12 road supervisors working In
dependent of each oiher and having
their separate equipment. Now there
are no supervisors, the work being
under three foremen, one man In
charge of equipment, and a bridge
foreman. The equipment la now all
under direction of the engineer and
Is housed, when not In use, In a
modern machine shop near the fair
gronnds and la under supervision of
Tom Roseberry. where all machinery
Is repaired and some of it la built.
"Of the 1000 miles oi roaas ta mi
county, about 800 miles are summer
roads, that are practically Impossible
in winter and 700 miles of all-year
roads," said Mr. ltynnlng, who con
tinued: "In 1920 the county spent
about $400,000 on road work, while
last year It was only about u,uuu. as
the commissioners are holding down
tax levies. It costs about 30,000 per
year to maintain the county roads.
The road tax this year Is 1.1 mills
and the amount created by this tax,
added to about 68.000 received from
tho gns tax. together with market
road funds, will make about 100.000
for all road purposes this year after
deducting H5.000 Interest on bonds.
The county court has sdopted a
five-year program of oiling roads
which provides for about ten miles
per year and more when co-operation
Is given by tho different communl
ltes. The otllng to be done all over
the county roads without the proper
base cannot be oiled.
"One of tho serious problems li to
keep the present roads In proper re
pair, with the Imlted funds, and
some method will have to be arranged
soon to create more funds or the rood
base will be beyond repair.
"Jackson county has 700 bridges,
large and small, that must also be
kept repaired and be replaced when
worn out. the life of the average
bridge being IS years. This year we
will spend about M5.000 oi
When asked about the heavy truck
loads wearing out the roads, Mr. ltyn
nlng said the state police keep In
close touch with this problem and
find that the truck men generally
observe the lew, which Is a limit of
40.000 pounds,
"it may be news to most of you,"
.kiri Mr. Rvnntnz In closing, "to
know that the fast, light cars are
h.rrior on the roads that era not
mncadem or oiled than heavy traffic."
Visitors at the meeting were Wr.
Bennett, past present of the Brem
erton club; H. O. Lytton, who re
cently traded for 80 acres of the
nurnntt. ranch south of the fair
grounds east of Bear creek: Hermsn

MRS. POELNITZ SUES
OF
P.O.
Suit seeking a temporary Injunc
tion, prohibiting Ma thins (Dutch) 8.
Welch from withdrawal of 93000 de
posited In the postal savings depart
ment of the Ashland postofflce was
filed lata yesterday In circuit court
by Mrs, Ada Poelnlts of this city.
The litigants are brother and sister.
The complaint sets forth that the

The plaintiff recites that she gave
Mathlas B. Welch the key to a safety
deposit box In thts city and that
later Welch deposited the S3000 In
the postal saving department of the
Ashland pOBtoff.ee. The certificates
of deposit were "Inadvertently de
stroyed by fire," It Is claimed. Ap
llcatlon for new certificates has been
made and Mr. Poelnlts alleges
Welch has been dilatory about turn
ing It over to her.

new certificate under her own name
unless given half of the sum, and
still refuses to do so. She furtner

been Issued.

WAR ON BEETLES
IN ROGUE FOREST
Infestation of the mountain pine .
beetle in the timber stands along The '
Dalles-California highway southeast
of Crater Lake, where the Insect has
wrought havoc during the past sev- !
eral years, has decreased rapidly, of- i
flclala of Rogue River national forest
announced late yesterday as the first
plans In this year's campaign that
of locating the Infested trees came .
to a close, I
For the past several weeks CCC '
crews, working under the direction
of Laurence V. Eapay, ECW foreman,
supervised by Norman J. Penlck, ad
ministrative assistant for Rogue River
national forest, have ' been at work
In a spike camp, spotting, felling and I
limbing the stricken trees.
Next step In wiping out the beetle J
will depend largely upon the weather,
for each log Is allowed to He In the
sun with each side exposed In turn,
until the bugs are killed by the heat
while still at work under the thin
bark. If the weather Is hot, the for
est service expects to complete the
project by June 80. i
Statistics released today reveal that ;
In 1034 Infested trees In this area to i
taled S965, while a census taken this i
year reveals that only 1443 trees have
been attacked by the beetle. With a
total thta year of 8300 acres, the acre- !
age of Infestation shows a decrease of
70 per cent.
Officials stated this unusually large
decrease Is due to the extensive fell
ing or Infested trees In a similar cam
paign last year, which allowed the hot
sunshine which prevailed to effect
ively sun cure large areas.
Foreman Espey reports that the ,
rate of tree curing haa been Increased !
from a low of three trees per man I
per day to eight trees per man per
day as the CCC men, all of whom are !
new recruits from Chicago, have be- j
come better trained In the work. Es- (
pey stated he has Instilled sense of
rivalry among the crews that pro- j
motes results.
Majority of the men have been In
camp since April, Espey reports, and,
despite their Ignorance of the woods
at first, they have rapidly learned
woodcraft and talk In the vernacular
of old-time bug hunters. To them a
compass Is no longer a box with a
little swinging needle, trees are felled
Instead of undermined, and sections,
sections corners and quarter corners
mark certain areas In the timber that
are no longer referred to as so many i
blocks this way or so many blocks
that.
Besides the active "bug brigade," a
check cruise la being made In the
old Infestation along the park boun
dary, revealing that In places where
there were at one time as many as
two Infested trees per acre, there are
now only 40 Infested trees on 2000
acres.
