Aspects of Industry
Should be Explored,
Chamber Board Agrees
All aspects of any industry agan pointed out that orchardists
which might be invited to locate
in the valley should be explored
before such an invitation is is
sued, it was generally agreed at
a meeting of the board of direc
tors of the Jackson County
Chambers of Commerce yester
day. The reference was particular
ly to the hazards of air and
stream pollution, brought up by
Board Member George Flanagan
in connection with the possibility
of a pulp and paper plant locat
ing here
The discussion arose with re
gard to recent action of the
board in voting to particapate
in sponsoring a study of wood
waste industries, to be conducted
by the Stanford Research In
stitute. Some people have in-
' terpreted the study to be leading
up to an invitation to a pulp and
paper firm to locate here, Flan
agan said.
Danger of Odors, Smolc
.wiemDers 01 tne doara in
dicated they shared Flanagan's
concern over the danger of of
fensive odors or smoke could
bring to the valley, or the danger
of stream pollution to the Rogue
river and its sports fishery. But
it was pointed out the proposed
study would cover all aspects
of industries which might take
advantage of supplies of wood
raw materials available in the
valley not just pulp and paper
manufacturers.
Flanagan revealed that three
of the valley's large mills, Med
ford Corporation, Timber Pro
ducts, and Elk, Lumber company
of which he is general manager,
have discussed pooling their re
sources to build a pulp mill, but
that the Idea has been held in
abeyance because of the pollu
tion threat.
He said, however, if the people
of the valley would have no
objection to a pulp mill and the
pollution threats it would engen
der, then the local interests
would feel justified in going
ahead with such plans.
Consider Views
The board asked its industrial
committee to take these views
into consideration in its planning
for more industry, and was as
sured that these aspects are in
cluded, in the committee's work.
During the discussion, Flan-
have made considerable progress
in cutting down on the amounts
of smudge smoke put into the
air during orchard heating opera
tions, and that mills are work
ing to cut down the amount of
burner smoke expelled. This
progress would be lost if an op
eration came here which would
create offensive odors or much
smoke, he said particularly in
view of the frequent inversions
which keep smoke or fog bottled
up in the valley with no way of
clearing out
The' state sanitary authority
is now making studies of the
amount of stream pollution toler
able in the Rogue without dan
ger to fish life, it was brought
out at the meeting, and prelim
inary indications are that only
one major industrial plant can
be located on the Rogue without
exceeding such a permissible
pollution level.
Report Disadvantage
At the conclusion of the discus
sion, it was the board's under
standing that the Stanford Re
search Institute would report on
disadvantages of any industrial
operation which could use local
raw materials, as well as the
advantages.
Mrs. Bert Pree, tourist and
convention committee chairman,
told the board efforts are being
made to save the old U.S. Hotel
in Jacksonville from demolition.
The building, one of the historic
structures in the pioneer town,
has been condemned for public
use, but that possibilities of hav
ing it restored are being ex
plored. It is now owned by the
city of Jacksonville, and some
have proposed that it be torn
down.
The board heard and adopted,
after making minor amendments,
a statement of chamber policies,
governing operation of the of
fice, committees, and other func
tions of the chamber.

Garden Notes
C. B. CORDY
County Extension
Agent fr Horticulture
Garden peas are now getting
uo to the point where they are
blossoming and setting on small
pods. This is a critical stage from
the standpoint of protection
against pea weevil. The adult
weevils are now about and will
sting their eggs into the pods
which will result in tiny worms
developing in the peas. This is
a common garden pest, but for
tunately it is rather easy to con
trol.
The adult weevils are very
sensitive to DDT and easily
killed by it. Dusts are really
more effective than sprays, but
either one of them would do the
work. A dust of 5 per cent DDT
applied when the plants are
blooming freely and some of the
young pods have set would be
the first application.
In order to give continued
protection, it would be necessary
to repeat this dust in two weeks.
If you prefer to spray, use a
heaping tablespoon 50 per cent
DDT in two gallons of water.
Aphis Common Pest .
Aphis are also a common pest
on peas and these could be readi
ly controlled by adding a table
spoon of malathion to this DDT
mixture. This malathion spray
would also be very beneficial on
other plants such as roses which
may have an aphis infestation.
Cherry aphis are also causing
considerable trouble and where
they are numerous, this mala
thion spray "would give control;
however, as cherry trees are
large, they should be sprayed
with a power sprayer using two
pounds malathion in 100 gallon
of water. With small trees
where only a few tips are in
fested with aphis, it might be
simpler to cut off the infested
tips and destroy them.
It is still too early to spray for
cherry fruit fly. the nature of
this insect makes it necessary
to very carefully time the first
cover. The timing is related to
the appearance of the adult
flies, so we cannot tell ahead of
time when the spray will need
to be applied. As soon as the
flies appear, a notice will be
given of the proper time and
materials to use.
Thanks Friends . . .
For the faith and confidence you gave me in your
support at the primary election for the office of County
Assessor. I appreciate the fine expression given me
by my worthy opponent and feel I have gained another
friend in this busy world, and thank him for the clean
race we were able to make. Trusting your faith will
continue ot grow through the November election, I
hope to be able to substantiate that faith in the next
four years. s ALIEN D. CURRY

Comment On This and That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
United Press Feature Writer
j CRANES COMPLETE FLIGHT
Washington (U.R) At least
three of North America's re
maining Whooping Cranes have
completed their 2,500-mile flight
to Canada and others are near
ing " their destination, the Fish
and Wildlife Service, reported
Thursday.
Washington (U.R) One way
to prevent sunburn is to stay
away from old Sol.
Another is
to dab several
ounces of pre
vention on sec
tions of your
anatomy you
aim to expose
to the hot
rays.
Personally, I
don't intend to
Harman Ntcbois do any pro
longed outdoor sitting.
I've discovered like a lot of
others that some soda parlors
around the country have lamps
for sale that will give an arti
ficial tan.
On my annual leave which is
coming up presently, I intend to
look into this method in the in
terest of science.
With this in mind, I went
down to the government print
ing office and, for a nickel,
picked up a Public Health Serv
ice pamphlet called "Sunburn
and Suntan."
The little four-page book
starts out by saying that a lot
of folks ruin their vacations by
trying to build up a brown look
too many layers at a time.
Some Suggestions ,
The Health Service has some
suggestions. First off, you should
know from experience how
much sun your hide can handle.
Even if you're sure, watch out
for the noonday sun.

"Some of the worst cases of
'sunburn," the pamphlet goes on,
"are collected on the beaches
and on the snow-covered moun
tains. Even when the sun is
overcast, the sun can burn cruel
ly." The Health Service has found
that kids burn more easily than
big folks. Babies under age two
and delicate children of any
age need a watchful eye. It is
deemed advisable for the very
young to start out in spurts of
five minutes at a time.
Most grownups can weather
15. minutes under the rays the
first day. On reach succeeding
day, the exposure may be ex
tened by 15 minutes.
Some Preparations
' The service recommends some
suntan preparations, which come
under the preventive classifica
tion. Since they involve mathe
matics and fractions, these reci
pes ought to be stirred up by
your druggist.
These are recommended, when
properly mixed:
Oil: A mixture of white jtiin
eral oil, - sesame oil, methyl
salicylate, perfume, and a touch
of hydroquinone. .
Cream: cold cream mixed with
vanishing cream, sesame oil,
methyl anthranilate, and cho
lesterol. Lotion: ethyl alcohol, sesame
oil, butyl benzal acetone oxalate,
tannic acid.perfume, and hydro
quinone mixed in.
If you forget all of the above
the time of exposure and the
preventatives and get in trou- !
ble, better call a doctor.
The Health Service warns that
a lot of burns can be serious.
You may come down with chills,
fever and even run out of your
head.
Happy vacation!
Insulin Pill May
Replace Injections
Portland (U.R) Dr. Robert H.
Williams yesterday described a
new "insulin" pill that may in
the future take the place for
certain patients of painful daily
injections.
. Dr. Williams, a researcher
from University of Washington
medical school, spoke to mem
bers of the Portland Academy
of Medicine. He cautioned that
the new drugs are not yet on
the market and that they are
still experimental. Research on
them is still in the preliminary
stages.
However, he said, the new
drugs already had established
their place in diabetic therapy
and promise to replace insulin
treatment permanently in some
patients.
Carbutamide and tolbutamide,
popularly known under their
trade names as BZ-55 and ori
nase, respectively, are the two
drugs under investigation. ,

said a check showed consump
tion actually was slightly less
than $32,000,000, but said that
amount "is exactly $32,000,000
more than God's will allows."
