o e3 o O TWO MEDrOHD (OREOOH) Chilean Forester Visits Area On Whirlwind Trip Across (US Osvaldo Mario ALfaro, Santi ago, Chile, is in Jackson county between Lake o Woods and Union Creek today, inspecting large scale logging operations after a short visit in Medford yesterday and Tuesday. The 30-year-old Chilean is an extension agent of the Point Four Soil Conservation Service in his country. At the behest of the Foreign Operations Agency of the United States, he is here studying all phases of timber management and production. In the last three months Alfaro has been whisked through 14 states and the District of Colum bia. As he puts it, he's "hardly had time to wash my clothes." Visit Watershed Wednesday he visited a Rogue River National Forest'watershed (1 the Ashland area accompanied by Jack Wood, forest super visor; M. L. Tedrow, . timber management officer; and Harold . Thomas, Ashland district ranger. Alfaro crossed the U.S. border last September and spent nine months getting a forestry degree at North Carolina State college He speaks with a rapid-fire Chilean-British accent. The latter inflection he says, is a result of study in a British school when he was six. In Chile, where he attended college, the schools offer only generalized agriculture degrees, one oi which he obtained. He came to the United States to con c-entrate on his chosen field forestry. Alfaro sees a tremendous pulp industry for Chile in the surpris ingly near future. About 40 years ago, private land owners there began planting Monterrey pine treet. a variety fond in southern California. More than 500,000 acres of planted timber now ntind in the coastal nation. ffieUb Excellent Pulp Monterrey pine in this coun try it gnarly, knott, and of prac tically no value.

" If planting continues at its present rate, 20,000 acres per year, Alfaro predicts the country will produce 1,500,000 tons of pulp by 1960. Only one small pulp mill now operates in Chile, but two are abuilding, each cap able of producing 100,000 tons of paper material per year. Chile's goal, according to Al faro, is seven new pulp plants by about 1970. Since the coun try's own consumption is small, most of the product will be ex ported. Total earnings brought in by this may well rival the now chief export, copper. Alfaro received a minor shock when he first arrived in Oregon and the Rogue valley. In Chile, he says, he always thought of Oregon and Washington as cold, rainy, forest covered mountain ranges. Actually, the climate and topo graphy here are much like that of Santiago. Commenting on the customs of the two areas, Alfaro believes there are fewer differences be tween South America and the In and Around Jacksonville Jacksonville H en r y W.
