TILLER SAWMILL
HALT BY FLOOD
Tiller Mill and Lumber com
pany'! law mill, 14 miles above
Trail on the Tiller-Trail road,
was back In operation this morn
ing after flooding waters had
halted operations over the week
end.
According to A. A. Lausmann,
owner, the mill was in serious
danger for three hours triday
when spillways and gates were
unable to accommodate the
swollen waters and part of the
dam gave way. The flood rushed
thru the mill building and rose
to the main floor.
Forest service, highway de
partment and mill and logging
crews with bull-dozers and oilier
equipment combined to divert
the flow before it reached the
pond. Damage to the mill has
not been estimated.
Water, which was running
down the highway a foot deep
in spite of heavy grades, was
receding rapidly by Sunday, ac
cording to reports Lausmann has
received.
Just Heopened
The mill, closed for 14 weeks
by the A. F. of L. strike, had
been operating again for just
two days prior to the flood.
Lausmann says that, barring
floods, the mill along with his
mill just south of Medford ex
pects to keep running on through
the winter. Good rock roads
make logs acces.sable.
Since resumption of work,
December 10, the Medford mill
has been shipping per day about
five carloads of dimension lum
ber and boards.
Lausmann was Informed, Mon
day, that slides endangered large
sections of the Tiller-Trail high
way between the summit and
Trail and that a large number
of state highway commission
forces from Jackson county were
laboring to keep the road open.
A report he obtained stated that
the road toward Drew was also
in bad shape.
