AT ROGUE RIVER
Rogue River, Feb. 18 Com
pletion of the Bristol Silica com
pany granite crushing plant on
Blackwell hill awaits the arrival
of electrical equipment, manu
facture and delivery of which
has been held up by strikes, F
I. Bristol, owner of the local
firm said Friday.
The plant, which will crush
granite for poultry grit, will
have a capacity of 120 tons
day.
Bristol has operated the silica
crusher here since 1938 and re
ports a steadily increasing busi
ness. He produces both silica and
standard granite grit for Ore
gon. Washington and Idaho mar
kets and during the war supplied
most of the gasoline plants east
of the Mississippi with silica for
use in their gasoline cracking
process.
Silica or quartz crystals, tne
white particles of granite, are
found in pure deposits where
nature has worn away and seg
regated the softer parts. Deposits
of this sort are located at Mil
ler's Gulch where the Bristol
company is quarrying. Standard
granite is being taken from
Blackwell hill.
Crushing facilities here are of
40 ton capacity. Ten men are
employed by the company at the
present. Granite from the Black-
well hill plant will continue to
be hauled to Rogue River for
final screening and shipment.

PORTLAND FIELD
Personnel of the Medford
army air base search and rescue
unit will move this week to the
Portland air base. It was stated
at the base this morning that the
loss of men through discharges
from service had made it im
practical to keep the unit in operation.
Major Frank Rasor, command
ing officer of the unit, is to go
to McCord Field, Tacoma, where
he will take over command of
the unit there, but the remain
ing seven officers and 14 enlist
ed men will report at the Port
land field, it was said.
Since activation early In De
cember, the unit has worked on
three cases, it was reported, all
three being navy planes reported
lost in southern- Oregon, one
thought to have been forced
down somewhere north of Crater
Lake and the other two near
Bly. Search parties were unable
to locate any of the planes due
to heavy snow and exceedingly
rough terrain in the areas, it was
stated. In the future, search and
rescue for planes lost in this area
will be carried on from the Port
land base.

A Message on behalf of our Retailers
TOURING the war yean it was imperative for us to ration Sides'
Select Beer to our retailers because of our firm policy to maintain
the unvarying high quality of our product. Even now, with the return
of peace, rationing must be continued until our plant expansion program
will enable ui to meet the tremendous demand with quality unimpaired.
Through this trying period the cooperation of our dealers has been, and
is, so generous that we wish to make public acknowledgment of it. The
fact that Sicks' Select Beer is rationed requires a sacrifice on the part of
your dealer and may mean that he cannot always immediately supply you.
If this should ever occur, we ask your patience on his behalf as hU stock
will be regularly replenished. You may be sure it is always his desire, and
ours, to serve you with as fine a Beer as it is possible to brew. '
