With Big lem in natural or artificial re seeding of forest lands in Ore gon, a study made by an Ore gon State college forestry graduate shows. The white-footed deer mouse destroys more coniferous tree seed than any rodent, it was found. Two mice per acre can consume in five weeks the one-half pound of seed usual ly sown in artificial seeding. The population per acre" runs from two to eight. Research on the mouse was conducted on Tillamook Burn plots by Edward F. Hooven for his master's degree in for est management. Hodven is research mammalogist with the state-operated Oregon For est Lands Research, center, Corvallis. His study was auned at pro viding life history informa tion on the mouse so that con trol measures may be made more effective. Control earlier was based largely upon the use of a ce real grain treated with a ro denticide but jwas only par tially effective "because fall and winter rains reduced the lethal qualities of . the bait. Since 1952, a direct applica tion of a rodenticide to the tree seed has been used with excellent results. It is not af fected by the weather. The white-footed deer mouse is dark colored with white underside and feet. Females produce four litters a year with litters averaging four young. Mice range over a wide area in search of food, the study revealed. The peak of the mouse population comes in November. Of the -30,000 Hessian troops used by the British in the Revolutionary war, 12, 500 were killed or deserted. ifoimfttlTijilmra RICHARD MAY LEE EGAN BRITT- PHILIPS PLUS! i Stocks Get Strong Support Near Close New York-ttM-St'ocks met strong support near closing time today after a further de cline.

The Flescher report on Oregon Technical Institute, Klamath Falls, also will be considered. " According ' to present rec ommendations, technical training would be removed from Oregon State '.college, Corvallis, and area vocation al centers would.be establish ed, Mayfield explained. . ' The current proposal,1 he slid, is to maintain the sys tem of public schools - of grades 1 through 12 as the basis of education. Graduates from the public 1 school sys tem would either enter tech nical institutions and colleges or vocational schools. Stu dents, however, would not be restricted to one particular category. If the student found he could qualify for college or technical training, he could shift his studies, or could shift to vocational training if college or technical training proves too difficult, Mayfield explained. Proposed Pattern Under the proposed pat tern of Oregon public educa tion, vocation school and junior college type programs would have from one to three years attendance. A certifi cate but no degree would be given on completion of work. The technical institute and collegiate type programs would have from two to seven years attendance. A diploma plus a degree would be given upon completioft : of the course. The current proposal would divide the state into seven districts for vocational educa tion centers. In southern Ore gon Curry, Coos, Douglas, Jackson and Josephine coun ties would form District 4 with a total assessed valuation of $273,082,059 and an esti mated population of 242,650, Mayfield said. Financing Told Such education centers would be financed by some state money, some federal j money, student tuition and some local money, he ex plained. . John Niedermeyer, Jack sonville, objected to this, say ing the local school districts citizens are taxed enough al ready and could not affbrd to support additional institu tions. Mayfield said the need for the study arose when it was realized by educators that technical and vocational train ing is needed beyond that given in high school and not at the high' level of require ments set by college. New officers elected last night ,to Oregon School Boards Boards association, District 13, are Glen Smith, Rucn, chairman; Mrs. Herman Renfro, Grants Pass, vice chairman, and Mrs. Jeannette Groves, secretary. - ' AIM'S BEST BUY!
