Reforestation of O&C Lands for 56-57 Year Has Been Completed The Medford district office of the bureau of land management has announced the completion of its reforestation program for the 1956-57 season which began last September. According to District Forester E. K. Peterson a total of 295 acres was planted with nursery grown stock, while 388 acres were seeded directly,' either through aircraft distribution, broadcast with a hand cyclone seeder, or placed in seed spots in the ground. A rodent repel lant, endrin, was used on all the tree seed used for direct seeding. Shortage of Fundi Due to the shortage of ap propriated funds during the past season the bureau was unable to conduct any seeding or planting operations either by contracting with commercial tree planters or by using its own personnel, Pet erson said. The limited funds that were available were used to purchase necessary tree seed and planting stock for us by pur chasers of BLM timber sale con tracts under the supervision of BLM foresters. Of the total 201,000 seedlings planted on 295 acres, Lloyd Tim ber company planted 123,000 pondcrosa pine seedlings on 180 acres of the Sykes Creek Burn, Donna Timber Products planted 20,000 ponderosa pine and 34,000 Jeffrey pine on 80 acres of the Jackson Creek Burn and Lloyd Silva planted 24,000 sugar pine seedlings in the Slate Creek area southwest of Grants Pass. Direct seeding of 200 acres of Conference on Real Estate Planned in Medford Soon sugar pine was accomplished by the Bate Lumber company in the Peavine area west of Galice in Josephine county. Medford Air service seeded 40 acres of Douglas fir in the Cave Junction area for Cabax Mills. Additional Seeding Additional Douglas fir seeding was completed on 73 acres by the Robert Dollar Lumber com pany in the vicinity of Green Mountain and 58 acres by the A. C. Smith Lumber company in Cow creek drainage, both in Southern Douglas county. In addition, 17 acres was seeded to Douglas fir by the Brown Brothers company in the Wil liams creek area. Commencing in July, 1957, the 18 O&C counties, have recom mended that Congress appro priate $1,000,000 from moneys to which the counties are entitled under the distribution formula of O&C timber sale receipts. The money is to be made available to the bureau for an expanded re forestation program. Under the proposed expanded program plans are presently be ing made to artifically reforest within 10 years, either by plant ing or seeding, all those good timber-producing bureau lands which are not now fully stocked with trees. In additional artificial reforest ation will be prescribed for those timber sale areas where ex perience has demonstrated that prompt and complete natural re forestation to desired tree species cannot be depended upon, Peterson said. First in a series of state-wide conferences on real estate will be conducted at the YMCA building in Medford March 27 and 28 under sponsorship of the Oregon Real Estate department under Clarence F. Hyde, Oregon real estate commissioner. Hyde said the program is be ing conducted in response to I requests by local licensees and is in cooperation wun au licensees and local realty boards. Professor Leevern Johnson, in structor in real estate at the . University of Oregon, will pre- I sent the technical side of real ! estate problems, and Edwin F. ; Lucke, general sales manager for John G. Clarke, Realtor, Portland, will make practical i application and interpretations j of the subject under discussion, j , Hyde said the new program will start with the "grassroots' i of real estate brokerage. He j listed primary fundamentals in j real estate brokerage as follows: ; 1 Ahilitv In cprnro anrl rnr- ....... vv .. . . . rectly fill in necessary informa tion on listing agreements for the sale of real estate. 2.
