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

ers at a meeting of the Southern

tee on the fir beetle problem, and
Robert L. Furniss, of the U. S.
Bureau of Entomology and Plant
Quarantine laboratory in Port
land.
To Hit Peak in '53
Both Hagenstein and Furniss
pointed out that, because of
heavy fire damage and wind-
throw of timber during the last
three years, fir beetle has be
come an extremely serious prob
lem in western Oregon. The prob
lem is expected to hit a peak
in 1953, unless there is more
heavy fire and windthrow dam

which would prolong the cur
rent infestation, they said.
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.

"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.
