The houses will cost from $4,000 to $7,000 each. Veterans will be given preference In pur chasing the dwellings. maintenance on the Rogue River National Forest In amount of $36,650 have been received for the calendar year 1946, accord ing to Karl L. Janouch, forest supervisor. This Is an increase of 20 per cent over last year, This money is to be used to restore roads and trails within the forest to their original condi tion, and to replace unservice able bridges. Because of labor shortage during the war years, maintenance requirements are heavier than normal, Mr. Jan ouch said, and the heavy water this winter has caused consider able damage which must also be repaired. In addition to the amounts al lotted to the various forests for work on forest roads and trails, approximately $5,069,150 has been set up for construction of forest highways in Oregon, the work to be supervised by the Public Roads admlaistration. This work is financed from for est funds as a contribution irom forest receipts in lieu of taxes, on projects such as the Crater Lake and Tiller-Trail highways which pass through or from ap proaches to national forests. The projects to be constructed each year are decided upon by representatives of the Forest Service, Public Roads Adminis tration and State Highway Com mission. Specific Jackson Coun ty projects for 1946 have not yet been announced. G. PASS PLANS Daily Weather Report FORECASTS Medford nl vlrlnlly: Claar lo. tllfht and Saturday with mornlnl lor.

Use Mall Tribune Want Ada. Man Raises House Flies For Aid To Science Interest Oswego, N. Y. (U.PJ Frank J Smegelsky of this city has one of America's oddest jobs. He's foreman of the Falcon Fly ranch, which breeds thousands of house flies each week in the interest of science. Smegelsky Is connected with the Diamond Match company factory here, which makes fly ribbon as well as wooden matches. When new batches of the ribbon are prepared, Smegel sky hangs up five ribbons with five competitor ribbons in a special room. Then he turns 2,000 flies loose. If a later check reveals his ribbons have "out drawn" the rival's, Smegelsky approves the shipment. If Smeg elsky'j brand is beaten In the test, he knows the sticky si'b s.tance lacks "fly allure" and company chemists brew another botch. The fly ranch was started when war shortages forced Dia mond to use substitute ingred ients In the fly-catching surface of the ribbons. There is no way to find out if the flies like the substitutes except by trying It on the flies, Smegelsky says. "Two Bits" Jackson County's Most Publicized Dog. Into Print Again Jackson county most publi cized dog, "Two Bits," has brok en Into print again, this time in the current Issue of Life maga zine. Two Bits, as most local residents will remember, made himself famous by surviving two falls off Whiskey Peak In the southern part of the county while he and his master, William Ziegler, were spending the win ter atop the peak for the army's aircraft warning service during the heighth of the war. Two Bits' story is part of an article written for Life by James Thurber, famous humorist, au thor and artist, on "What the Animals Were Up To," and the first page Is illustrated with a pen sketch of the dog peering over the cliff. Thurber't version, however, strays somewhat from the facts as given out originally by Zieg ler. Two Bits fell off the cliff, estimated to be about 800 feet high, twice, but both times the ground was covered with deep snow which probably accounted for the dog surviving. Both times ho was injured, once so severely that he lay in a protected hole in the mountain side for a few days before being discovered by Ziegler. Two Bits, somewhat lazier and a litt'.e overweight, is still a beloved member of the Ziegler family. Mr. and Mrs. Ziegler and their small child are presently living at Star Ranger station In the Applegate, Ziegler being a forest guard for the Rogue River National Forest service.
