Camping, therefore, should be at its best for the holiday week-end. "Crisp fall weather is setting in throughout the high moun tains and campers should be pre pared for cool nights. Hiking is also more attractive than during the heat of the summer. "The evergreen blackberries in the Applegate district are now ripe and, while the crop is rather light, there are many places near roads where good picking is available. A few cattered huckle berries may still be found in the Union Creek and Butte Falls districts. "Special events have been planned at Lake o' Woods for the Labor Day holiday, includ ing dancing and other attrac tions. Roads Dusty. Rough "Most roads are now dusty and in many places quite rough because of the heavy use throughout the summer.. More leisurely travel is therefore ad visable. Slower travel will also permit observance of a surpris ing number of interesting fea tures usually not noticed in the forest, such as the wild birds and small animals, the many dif ferent species of trees and plants and the small streams. Attention of motorists on the Diamond Lake highway is invited to the ancient deposits of charcoal and burned logs which were buried thousands of years ago by layers of volvanic ash which are plain ly visible in the Foster creek cut, six miles above Union Creek. These deposits were over 100 feet below the surface until the highway excavation a few years ago exposed them along a half mile of the highway. "Fishing on the forest Is good in only a few places. The south fork of the Rogue river near South Fork forest camp and middle fork above the Prospect road have been fairly good.

New York, Aug 30 IJP) The stock market, which often does the unexpected, pulled a sur prise rallying rabbit out of the hat today. The list was mildly improved at the start but subsequently slowed and prices wavered. Buy ing in rails then touched off a runup in steels, motors and other industrial leaders. Gains for fa vorites ranged from 1 to more than 2 points, with dealings faster than in the past two weeks. Despite intermittent sluggish ness, volume stepped up to around 350,000 shares, or about double that of the preceding ses sion. Quotations were shaved in many cases at the close by a little profit taking on the bulge. Today'a closing prices for 84 select ed stocks follow: Al Chrm. & Dye 156 Am. Can 96', A.

The attack was Incorporated in an eight-man minority re port filed on the revise version of the Burke-Wadsworth com pulsory military training meas ure which was approved yester day by a majority of the mem bers of the house military com mittee. Actual debate is scheduled to start Tuesday on the house bill, which differs in one vital par ticular from that passed by the senate. The house measure would require male citizens from 21 to 44 to register for possible service, whereas the senate age bracket' was 21 to 30. Leaders saw a hot fight in the offing on the age question. The minority report attack on the Burke-Wadsworth bill de clared "that this proposal and other Inevitably to follow to conscript manpower, conscript the farmers, conscript industry, conscript labor to run industry and conscript the wealth of the nation is not only unnecessary at this time to adequate defense of the country, but that it is a distinct and dangerous depart ure which will lead ultimately to the destruction of the Amer ican form of government in a totalitarian, military economy." CONSCRIPTS KEEP T TO VOTE Portland, Aug. 30. Mil itary conscripts need not worry about losing their right to vote. County Clerk A. A. Bailey said today. Under a state law all quali fied voters in any branch of government service have a vote no matter where they are sta tioned. If away from home or out of the state they can vote through absentee ballots. Use Mall Tribune want ads. tan Francisco South San Francisco, Aug. 30. (AP) (U. 8. Dept. Agr.l Hogs: sal able 35.

Fishing in the upper north fork of Rogue river has been poor with no limit catches in the past week. At Fourmile lake fishing for silver sides has been excellent, limit catches being made in mornings and evenings by still fishing with cluster eggs. Rainbows have been bitin on trolling with trout orenos. North fork of Little Butte creek is fair for small rain bow fishing with grasshoppers. Good Fishing in River "Trout fishing the entire length of Rogue river from Pros pect to Grants Pass has been ex cellent. Best lures are golden grouse, orange blue and grey monkey. A few salmon are mov ing in on the spawning beds and single egg fishing will soon be ood. Steelhead fishing is now the best it has been this season because of cool nihts. The best locations are Dowden falls. Gold Ray and Happy camp. Best flies are gray drake, ginger palmer, and queen well glory. "Almost every year the worst fires in the Rogue River national forest occur in September. Rec reationists are therefore urged to be extremely careful with fire while on the forest until rains relieve the present critical situation." top choice quoted 9.00; quoted 1.60-3.60.
