Mill Residue Study
Results Announced
A Joint survey by the Oregon
Forest Products laboratory and
the Pacific Northwest Forest and
range experiment station has
been published In the April in
formation circular, which they
sponsor every month, concern
ing mill residues in Jackson,
Linn and Lincoln counties.
The articles on the three
county's mill residue production
were written by S. E. Corder,
of the Oregon Forest Products
laboratory. Corvallis. and D. R.
Gedney, of the USFS Pacific
Northwest Forest and range
experiment station in Portland.
Purpose of Study
Purpose of the study was to
learn the quantity of mill re
sidue potentially available for
use in three counties of western
Oregon. Emphasis was placed on
coarse residue because of the
immediate possibility of convert
ing it to pulp or fiber. Fine re
sidue was reported as volume of
sawdust or shavings produced.
The field survey of sawmills
was conducted in the three coun
ties, in September 1955. All
Known sawmills with a capacity
of over 40 M feet, board mea
sure per eight-hour shift, were
visited in each of the three coun
ties. About 15 per cent of smaller
mills were contacted for infor
mation to use in estimating data
for the entire group of small
mills.
Coarse residue was recorded
as that from sulfite-pulp species
and that from other species.
Other uses consisted mainly of
use for fuel. Fine residue was
listed as used chiefly for fuel.
Results of Survey
Results of the survey deter
mined that if all the coarse re
sidue from sawing lumber pro
duced in Oregon in 1955 were
available, the total volume de
veloped would amount to 387,
000 tons from sulfite-pulp species
and 2.671,000 tons from other
species.
At the estimated rate in 1935,
54.000 tons of residue from sulfite-pulp
species and 805,000 tons
from other species was being
used for pulp or .board manu
facture. If there's

The survey showed there were
11 sawmills in Jackson county
with capaciftfs over 80 M fbm
per shift, 13 mills with capaci
ties from 40 to 80 M fbm per
shift, and 53 sawmills with
capacities less than 40, M per
shift. The rate of lumber pro
duction in 1955 was 881 MM
fbm per year, it reported.
None Used for Pulp
According to the survey no
mill residue was used for pulp
because of high transportation
costs to the pulp plants.
Seven per cent of the coarse
residue from true firs and hem
lock was used for fuel or re
manufacturing, and 93 per cent,
78,000 tons per year, was not
used. The total coarse residue
from true firs and hemlock, 86,
tons per year, could supply a
sulfite-pulp production of 123
tons of pulp per day.
The survey continued that
Jackson, county was producing
sawdust at the rate of 237,000
tons per year. Twenty-eight per
cent was used for fuel or agri
cultural uses and 72 per cent
was not used.
National Forest
In Jackson county the National
forests contained the great bulk
of the sulfite-pulp types, the sur
vey showed. They contained al
most twice the area of the sulfite
pulp types that occurred in either
the private or other public hold
ings. The other public holdings
were made up principally of the
O and C revested land grants
and small areas of public do
main, county and state-owned
land.
The study disclosed there was
a rather rapid increase in the
rate of lumber production for
the county between 1945 and
1955. The forest isrource inven
tory indicated lumber produc
tion probably could not be
sustained at the production rate
in 1955.
Lumber production from sulfite-pulp
species was not signi
ficant prior to 1945; since then
it became an increasingly large
part of the total lumber pro
duction, according to the survey.

Disciplinary Action
Taken by Sheriff

disciplinary measures were tak

two or three holes in wire mesh

was done with a broom handle.

Teachers Complete
3-Week Workshop
Ryder Berg, chemistry teach
er at Medford High school, and
Raymond Graves, social studies
teacher at Hedrick Junior High
school, were two of the more
than 1,000 teachers from Oregon
schools who have completed a
three weeks' workshop at the
University of Oregon.
The workshop was devoted
to a study of the curriculum of
the public schools that has been
in progress for a year and a
half. Reports from 97 field com
mittees were studied ' and com
piled by the group workshop to
set in motion a state-wide proi
gram for continuing curriculum
revisions.
The workshop was sponsored
jointly by the University of Ore
gon, the state department of ed
ucation, and local school dis
tricts which sent teacher representatives.

as "more of an agitator" than
the others.
He indicated the prisoners
damaged the windows in a spirit
of, mischievousness. Forfeiture
of cigarettes is a fairly common
disciplinary measure when in
mates "act up," Gault said.
