ROGUE VALLEY LAND CO Douglas fir bark beetle, which has infested approximately 3, 000,000 acres of western Oregon timberland, including 1,500,000 acres In Douglas county, is not, as yet, a serious problem In Jack son county, according to speak ers at a meeting of the Southern Oregon Conservation and Tree Farm association Friday. Speakers were W. D. Ha3en stein, chairman of the Forest Pest Action committee's subcommit tee on the fir beetle problem, and Robert L. Furniss, of the U. S. Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine laboratory in Port land.

It was announced Saturday In Portland that because of the seri ousness of the beetle Infestation, Secretary of Interior Oscar L. Chapman has signed special regu lations by- which emergency short-term access permits can be issued to cross Bureau of Land Management lands to sal vage windthrown, fire or insect killed timber from private lands. The two speakers here stated that salvage of such timber is the only known method of con trolling the beetles. Downed or dead standing timber is the pri mary breeding place for the bee tles, Furniss said. If this timber can be removed before beetles infesting it develops, the Infesta tion will die out more rapidly. Wants Local Information Furniss, who is In charge of insect control in Oregon, Wash ington and Alaska, told SOCTFA members that one of his pur poses In coming to southern Ore gon was to determine if the bee tles have become a serious prob lem here. An aerial survey of the entire state Indicated that Jackson and Josephine counties thus far have, in large part, es caped the beetle problem, chiefly because of the small amount of windthrown and fire-killed Um ber in this area last year. How- ever, the aerial survey was not absolutely conclusive, he said. Survey Urged The Pest Action committee recommends that each timber- land owner make surveys of his property by plane and by foot to determine to what extent tim ber has been damaged by wind throw and beetles, according to Hagenstein. where access per mits, such timber should be re moved as soon as possible, he said. He also urged cooperation between landowners, both pri vate and governmental, in lo cating and removing such timber. A series of colored slides on beetle killed timber were shown by Furniss.

Fraternal Order Of Eagles Hall WILL BE CLOSED June 26 . 29,h OvcihcudZty NEWS By BOB TAYLOR is' J j J "What's My Old Car Worth on Trade" is the most asked question by a New Car Dealer's customer and it's our biggest problem to convince you, the customer, that we are treating you right. That be ing the case I'm going to write couple of paragraphs, not from the Babson prediction column, but from my own personal Ideas on how to Judge "Trade-in Allow ance." Most people have an Idea their car is worth more than the "Trade Allowance" for several reasons. Cars advertised In the newspapers are at retail price AFTER recondi tioning, and INCLUDING sales commissions and GUARANTEES. Since this price Is higher than the "Trade Allowance" it becomes necessary to explain the reason for a lower trade-in, and with proper tact and sound reasons for show ing cost items on the dealer's part, it generally is accomplished to your satisfaction. The above is perfect, except you have a person drive in with a, oh let's call It a "Notick," 7-cylln-der, 5 wheel drive, that cost $3,111.19 when It was brand new 4 years ago. Well last week he didn't figure on selling It, but someone had offered to buy It from him, since he liked that 5 wheel drive, and would offer to pay $2,811.19 CASH. Nope he says this car has given me such good service I can't afford to sell It now. If the story ended there I wouldn't have anything to write about", but generally what happens Is the fellow gets to thinking how he'd like to buy one of those new "Dual Range Hydramatic PON TIACS" and In he comes for the Trade Shock of his life. Why Mr. Jacksmith, 1 explain, your asking within $300.00 of what It cost you 4 years ago, and the most the U. S. Gov't will let me give you is $1,611.19. Since he left mv olace so fast I didn't have a chance to tell him what I'm about to tell you. 1 hope you will watch out and not buy that "Notick" for he must have traded it to some other dealer. The only fair way for you to find the value of that trade-in, Is to pick out 3 makes of cars you pre fer to buy and have each bid put down on a slip of paper. You will find most alt of us will treat your used car much the same in apprais ing. Vou see none of us can sell them any higher than the other, and very few succeed In offering you more for your car than any one else and remain around next year to sell you a new one. If someone it going overboard and giving your more than the other 2 have bid, watch out, he's got a hard ear to sell and you'll end uo having more trouble trading OUT of the car than he's having trouble trying to talk you IN to buying It, Now, doesn't that make sense? . If you think this makes good sense, we'd like to put In a little plug to let us make a bid an your car before you buy. We'll look for ward to meeting you. Oh, yes, this Is DEAN'S PONTIAC, 6th and Grace, and we have a new phone, 2-5241. We'd like to Have your number, too. 'Most-lfated'of Them All It will probably occasion no surprise on your part to be told that the Cadillac car is the most wanted and sought-after automobile on the American highways. But you might be surprised to learn how widespread the desire to own this great motor car has become during recent years. Statistics indicate, for instance, that there are more than twenty million motorists in America who would like to call a Cadillac their own. And were the whole of the world's motorists to be considered, this number would grow well-nigh beyond comprehension. There is reason to believe, in fait, that Cadillac may be wanted by more people than any other product manufactured in America today. It might well be called the great desideratum of the American people. Naturally, a motor car has to offer many wonder. ful things in'order to occupy such a unique position in the hopes and aspirations of so many persons. It has to offer great and distinguishing beauty . . luxurious comfort . . . brilliant, masterful performance . . . and wonderful prestige. And, of course, in order to have become the logical ambition of so many millions, it would have to be practical to own, as well as wonderful to drive. And so, it would also have to offerextraordinary economy) If this sounds like the description of the car that you, yourself, would like to own and drive, then come in and see us soon. Perhaps the time has come for you to join the hundreds of thousands of motorists who have stopped wanting a Cadillac and started enjoying one! We'd be happy to see you any time.
