How can I harvest my farm wood
lot timber and make the most
money? That's the most important
consideration. The answer rests
in proper management of your
woodlot.
Yon hare seen that more than
one product can b taken from
your woodlot The products you get
depend on 1) type of timber you
have, 2) local markets, 3) selling
prices, and 4) logging costs. Al
ways cut the products that bring
the most net return to you. Keep
in touch with markets nd buyers.
To manage your trees you work
with nature. Each young forest
starts with thousands of tree to
an acre. As the trees grow the
weaker ones die for lack of sun.
food, water and air. This natural
thinning process is called mortality
and the loss in nnmanaged wood
lots will run to a cord per acre
each year.
You can harvest those trees and
improve on nature. By cutting the
right trees you will release grow
ing space for the smaller, better
quality trees in your woodlot. You
change loss to income and at the
same time improve your forest.
Removing the right number of
trees each year is important. In
Douglas fir forests you should go
over every acre at 5 to 10 year in
tervals and take out from 15 to
30 per cent of the stand of mer
Problems of Foreigners
Puzzle Naturalization Man
New York (U.R) Problems
brought to Martin M. Gleisner's
office are puzzlers.
There may be a 57-year-old
woman who has to find out the
name of the ship she took to
this country in 1910, or a 24-year-old
Russian-born sailor who
is a modern man without a coun
try. Gleisner, expert on Immigra
tion and naturalization for the
Common Council for American
Unity, crowds the case histories
into files already filled with
problems of people who dream
of becoming American citizens.
"About 100 people every
month come to the office in per
son and nearly that many write
each month," said the immigra
tion authority. He himself was
born in Germany, fled to France
when Hitler came into power,
and escaped to America when
Germany defeated France in
1940.
Old Record Helps
On his desk was a volume en
titled "European Passenger
Arrivals, 1890-1930."
"This is extremely valuable,
and very hard to get," he said
picking up the book. "Before
1924 people came to this country
without a formal" visa. Now, to
become citizens, they must have
their entry verified by showing
their names on the ship's pas
senger list. If they can tell me
the date of their sailing and
the port, I can help them with
this book."
Many of the explaining let
ters give extremely vague clues,
such as: "I came on a German
boat and arrived two days be
fore All Saints Day in, 1910."
Many more letters are from
foreign-born reisdents of this
country who want to brinf,4rela
tives over. Under our present
quota system, many of Gleis
ner's answers must be disap
pointing. "The quotas in countries like
Lithuania, for instance, have
been subscribed up to the year
2087," he explained.
This happened because dis
placed persons, most of whom
were quota immigrants, were
charged to their countries' quo
tas for future years.

Thinning-
7, a
chantable timber products each;
time. .
Why make frequent cuts? To get
high-quality timber your woodlot
needs enough trees on each acre to
use all available growing' space.
Frequent thinnings keep the trees
growing rapidly. Frequent cuttings
also make it possible to avoid hav.
ing too much space left between
trees. Poor spacing permits wind
throw and trees may become sun
s'calded or injured in other wayg.
Well spaced trees have a closed
canopy, that is. the branches of one
tree meet or nearly meet those of
its neighbors. Forests of this type
produce maximum tree growth per
acre of high-quality trees. They also
keep hardwood brush growth down
to a minimum by keeping out the
sunlight.
In 20 years an cre of managed
forests will grow 6 cords of wood;
in 40 years there will be 48 cords,
in 50 years an acre will yield 72
cords and at age 80 an acre will
produce 120 cords. Note rapid in
crease in older trees, That's a
graphic reason why you should
manage your forests. Next we will
discuss what trees to cut to get
best results from management.
(For more particulars write your
State Forester at Olymuia, Washington
or Salem, Orpon for your free copy of
"TOUR TREES A CROP." how to
grow and harvest them in the Douflaa
fir region.)
Right now Gleisner is study
ing the case of a young Russian
sailor who looks longingly at
the shores of Manhattan every
two weeks when his Norwegian
ship puts into port. He can't
come ashore because he has no
passport. v
"His parents fled to Shanghai
when the Bolshevik revolution
broke out in Russia," Gleisner
said. "The boy had to get a pass
port before he could., get a job
on a ship in 1947, so he got a
Russian passport in Shanghai.
"He found he could come into
this country under the displaced
persons act, but when he got a
hearing set before the immigra
tion officials his Russian pass
port had expired. He doesn't
want to get that renewed be
cause he wants to be an Amer
ican citizen, , but he can't come
ashore for a hearing without a
passport."
; Gleisner visited the young sail
or personally before he agreed
to work on the case.

Underwater Explosion
Tests Planned at Sea
Washington (U.R) A series of

be conducted at sea instead of in
Idaho's -Lake Pend Oreille as
originally was scheduled, Rep.
Walt Horan said Tuesday. :
Navy, Undersecretary Francis
Whitehair informed. the Wash
ington Republican that the Navy
"at present is making plans to
conduct the tests at sea and ac
cepts the additional expense and
loss of accuracy which an open
test entails."
The Navy's plans for conduct
ing the explosions in Lake Pend
Oreille this spring met with
strong opposition from sports
men and the Spokane city com
mission. Junior High Musicians

In preparation for the district
instrumental music contest of
schools April 11 in Klamath
Falls, junior high school students
last night presented a recital of

About 30 entries will partici

ford senior high school and
about 28 from the junior high,
according to Mirick.
There is enough marketable

Recommendations in
Transit Tiff Waited-
Portland (U.R) Portland's
advisory transportation commit
tee was expected to make its
recommendations Wednesday on
a settlement of a contract dis
pute between the AFL street
carmen's union and the Portland
Traction company.
The ' committee met Tuesday
with Fulton Y. Magill, Tacoma
transit expert, in an effort to
make an interim recommenda
tion. Among questions which Ma
gill was asked to answer concern
the effect on the company's net
revenue of a 15-cent cash fare, a
$2.40 pass and an 8-cent student
fare, validity of the company's
depreciation practices, what
fringe benefits, such as relief
from street maintenance, are
practicable and whether alloca
tion of expenses . between city
and interurban lines is proper.
The traction strike, postponed
once by the union, is now set for
April 7.
