SET NEW RECORD O. and C. timber sales made in November by the general land office of the department of the interior broke all sales rec ords for timber value in a sin gle month, according to W. Horning, chief forester for the O. and C. administration. November sales included 37 separate tracts of timber carry ing an estimated total volume of 117,651,700 board feet valued at $547,325.55. These 37 timber tracts were located in 11 of the 18 Oregon counties having O. and C. re vested railroad lands within their boundaries. Those involved included Benton, Clackamas, Co lumbia, Coos, Douglas, Jackson Josephine, Klamath, Lane, Linn and Folk counties. AH five of the O. and C. ad ministrative districts were rep resented, including field offices at Salem, Eugene, Roseburg, Coos Bay and Medford. Thirty of the 110 sustained yield operating areas were rep resented. Each of these has capacity to sustain an average- sized Oregon sawmill on a con tinuous lumber production basis, The disposition of timber on each tract was based on the tim ber-producing capacity of the local operating area. Thus per petual production of timber at a stabilized rate is accomplished on the revested grant lands, Mr. Horning states that sus tained yield cutting of timber on O and C. lands is not only a limit which must not be ex ceeded; it also is the amount which must be produced to sup ply the needs of local Industry. He points out that a steady flow of timber to market must con tinue permanently. To workers, that means steady employment. To the counties which receive 80 per cent of the earnings in places of taxes, it means a se cure source of county income, FALSE F CLUB HOSTS TO FOOTBALL TEAM False Friends club, composed of business and professional men of Medford, entertained the state champion Medford high school football team in a banquet at Holland Hotel Fri day night.
