Newspaper Page TextMrs. Burba Honored For Blood Work Here Mrs. J. W. Burba, chairman for blood procurement for the Red Cross here, is being urged to accept a nomination to the coordinating council of the re gional blood center, it was re ported today. At a meeting of the board of directors of the local Red Cross chapter yesterday, a letter was read urging her to accept the nomination, and commending her for her outstanding work locally in the blood program. This has attracted the attention of the regional center and prompted the nomination, the letter said. Ht-adi Nominating Croup At yesterday's meeting, Mrs. Frank Fairweather accepted the chairmanship of the nominating committee to present names of prospective new board members. Mrs. Fairweather also was the principal speaker at the meeting, telling of the work of the-home service section of the chapter. She traced the development of this phase of the work, and told how "home service" has as its primary responsibility service to men and women in military service, and to their families. Some 300 messages are han dled every minute around the. clock by this service pationally, she said, all for military person nel on duty or their families. The local chapter spent $4,000 of its budget last year for home service messages, she added. Mrs. Fairweather explained that strict requirements as to how home service funds are to be used make it necessary to re fuse many requests for service, and that a great deal of misun derstanding frequently results. First Aid Classes .First aid chairman Leroy Wil liams told the board that two first aid classes are now under way at Timber Products com nany. and that it is planned to have all personnel there quali fied in first aid soon.

Drob ably 90 per cent of you would not be here today," E. K. Peter son, district forester here for the Bureau of Land Management, declared Wednesday in a talk to Medford Kiwanians at Rogue Valley Country club. Peterson spoke at the service club's luncheon and presented a film, "Promise of Trees," in connection with National Con servation Week. Landowner Responsible In the final analysis, it is the landowner, himself, who must practice the conservation, the forester stressed. Of the timber ed land in Jackson county, 40 per cent Is in private ownership, Peterson reported. He said that the remaining 60 per cent is under jurisdiction of the BLM and the TJ.S. Forest Service. Of the private timber 45 per cent is under long term forest management, or extensive tree farming, according to Peterson.

May 8, 1955 Forest Service, timber, forage, grass, are under sustained yield programs. Cat Exceeds Growth In discussing the future of the ! timber industry, Peterson point ed out that more logs are being cut in the county than can be grown each year. He pointed to an annual cut of 450,000,000 board feet in logs while the allowable cut should be about 250,000,000. There is going to have to be a cut in log produc tion for sustained yield, Peter son brought out, and he men tioned the need of more manu facturing locally to "take up the slack." . The film concerned tree farms and manufacture of wood pro ducts, particularly, the making of paper. American railroads us an nually more than 6,000 tons of weed killers along their right-of-way trackage.
