Fire-Weather Forecasting One
Of Recent State Developments
One of the most important
points in developing forest
fire protection in the future
will be the success of the fire
weather forecasts, according
to Edward Schroeder, deputy
state forester.
Schroeder discussed the
fire-weather service, one of
the state's most recent pro
grams in forest fire protec
tion, at meeting of the South
ern Oregon Conservation and
Tree Farm association Friday
night at the Rogue Valley
Country club.
The program concerns the
relation of fire behavior com
bined . with forecasting, he
said. Basically, it is how fire
will act under certain weather
conditions. Using the Klamath
basin as an experimental area,
the accuracy of forecasting
lightning fires was raised to
93 per cent last year, he noted.
Cooperation
The state department of for
estry cooperates with the U.
S. weather bureau in the
service.
In connection with the .pro
gram, he said, the state also
is working with the weather
bureau in tracking storms by
radar, and the effective dis
persal of storms by use of dry
ice. The - latter program, he
pointed out, is expensive, and
research is in its early stages.
Schroeder also discussed the
use of trained overhead teams,
tank trucks, dropping chemi
cals on fires, and helicopters
in fire protection.
Overhead Crews
Trained overhead crews, he
noted, can bring a large fire
under control quickly. He
complemented the Southern
Oregon Conservation and Tree
Farm association, and govern
mental agencies in cooperat
ing with the annual fire fore
man's training school which
originated in southern Oregon
three years ago. The program

Corvallis Sandra Kay Bux

of Medford High school are
among 125 Oregon high school
seniors selected to - receive
scholarships at Oregon State
college for 1958-59 under
sponsorship of the state sys
tem of higher education. The
scholarships are worth $138
toward tuition next fall.
State scholarships are award
ed each year to a limited .num
ber of promising seniors from
various high schools of the
state and to outstanding stud
ents already enrolled in col
lege.
The scholarship quota for
each institution, of the state
system is 2 per cent of its
total enrollment the previous
year. Because OSC had an all-
time record enrollment this
year, the number of scholar
ships it is offering for 1958
59 is the largest in history.

Medford's Bargain Corner s
Sixth and Central J
has since spread throughout
the state, and has received na
tional attention.
Chemicals dropped from
planes can effectively control
the spread of a fire until
ground crews can reach it, he
said, and pointed out that
chemicals were used exten
sively last year during the
fire season. Helicopters have
been used effectively to move
water hoses and transport
personnel from one location
to another at fires.
He discussed briefly issues
now before the state depart
ment for forestry. Among
than are water resources con
servation, the Klamath Indian
agency lands, and the deer
problem in the northern part
of the state.
Inspect Areas
He said the state now has
the practice of inspecting with
the state sanitary committee
areas which will be logged
prior to the actual operation.
In that way, he noted, the
committee will have advance
notice that streams in the
operation area will become
muddy. If the Klamath In
dian reservation land becomes
private . property, the state
will have forest fire protec
tion responsibilities there. At
first, Schroeder said, it may
cause a burden on the depart
ment regarding protection.
Some kind of control of
deer is needed in the Tilla
mook burn area, and in'yparts
of Lane county, he said. The
deer problem in that area is
becoming worse, the deputy
state forester said. He pointed
out that since 1949 about
100,000 acres of the Tillamook
burn area have been reforest
ed, and 126 miles of fire cor
ridors have been constructed.
Maul Visits Here
Accompanying Schroeder
from Salem was Ted Maul,
executive assistant in protec
tion division. Maul is former
warden for the southwestern
district of the. state forestry
department, which has head
quarters on Table Rock rd.
Also attending the meeting
were Curtis Nesheim, district

ment of forestry; Cal Smith,

tion; Dale' Prentice, Western

By the time you read this
column, we hope, two new
double-faced bookstacks will
have been set up in the Med
ford Public library, Jackson
County library headquarters.
The metal stacks, silver
green in color to match the
pair of free-standing stacks
already in use, will provide
shelving space for the entire
fine arts collection, better
supporting shelving, too, for
heavy, oversized art and mu
sic books. Their total capac
ity is from 1,200 to 1,400 vol
umes. By permitting the removal
of the fine arts books from
the wall shelving where they
formerly have been housed,
the new stacks also will. re
lieve the seriously overcrowd
ed science and technology
sections and permit expansion
of subject collections in these
fields.
Difficult io Estimate
It is difficult to estimate the
cost of shelving each volume
in the collection of a public
library, or the cost of the
daily handling and shelf-reading
necessary to keep the
books in proper order so that
any volume can be found
when it is required.
This, of course, is in addi
tion to the cost of approxi
mately $1.25 beyond its pur
chase price for classifying,
cataloging and mechanical
processing of each book. All
of these items must be con
sidered in the decision either
to purchase and add a volume
or to retain one already in
the collection which seems to
have outlasted its usefulness.
Among the 111 new vol-"
umes added during the past
two weeks, including 60 new
adult and 30 new junior titles,
considered well worth their
place on the shelves, were the
