Newspaper Page Text- S? 2 , ' f ' x i , i LOG SUPPLY - Lack of rain this fall has permitted logging to continue longer than ever before, with many "summer shows" till operating. As a' result, most southern Oregon mills have been able to stockpile more logs than in - past years, assuring ample winter's supply. The picture above shows part of the deck and pond at Timber Products, Medford, which represents some 30 million board feet of saw logs. Lumber Firms Pile SawlogsDuringGood Weather This Year Lack of precipitation this fall caused many persons to become apprehensive about next summer's water supply, but local logging and lumber firms were "making hay,' with several summer logging hows still in operation and winter storage decks still un touched. Sawmill owners say that even though there may be a long wet spring, enough logs are on hand to assure steady operation. ' At Elk Lumber company, where two 45-hour shifts are ' expected to run through the winter, they are currently running two 54-hour shifts, with two 9-hour shifts on Sat urdays, to keep up with woods operations that ordinarily would have been closed by now, according to Vice Presi dent and General Manager George C. Flanagan. Frozen Ground Be said that logging opera tions on summer shows have never been carried out this late in past years. Frozen ground at. higher elevations has helped bring this about, In addition to the lack of rain toll. According to Stewart Mc- Hew Schedule for Playground Made Central Point-A new sched ule reducing the maximum amount of playground super vision duty for teachers at Jewett Elementary school has been announced by Bill Brew ster, principal. The new schedule was drawn up following an eval uation of teacher duty by the staff of Jewett school. The new schedule reduces the time a teacher spends in play ground supervision from more than 100 minutes daily, to 45 minutes. There is now only one duty assignment for each teacher daily, and duties are changed weekly. Teachers have found, Brewster said, that the new schedule allows them more time for individual student at tention and still provides suf ficient playground supervision. IRRIGATION PUMPS to 60 H.P.

MEDFORD, OREGON We Give S&H Green Stamps Queen, vice president of Ko- gap Lumber Industries, the firm usually starts using logs from their deck in November, but this year, the middle of December, they are still add ing to then reserve supply. They now have the largest log inventory on record, McQueen said. Elk Lumber company does not deck its logs, but instead bands them together in ponds, which are full to capacity now, Flanagan said. . Sawlogs Stockpiled At Timber Products com pany over 30 million board feet of sawlogs have been stockpiled for winter use, and although decks are full haul ing is still going on with the logs going into the pond and directly to the mill. When weather closes woods operations and hauling, then the stockpile will be used, ac cording to Manager T. K. Oli ver. The new 40-acre pond decking space around its I perimeter provides much greater - log- storage- area, which became necessary with the addition of a new gang mill at Timber Products last year. Oliver said the firm has plenty of logs for the winter's operation in spite of increased production. Lumber market outlook through 1960 is generally be lieved to be good. Service Firms Show Rise in Receipts Receipts of selected service establishments in Medford to talled $6,655,000, according to the preliminary census of business. Medford showed an increase of $1,269,000 or 23.6 per cent over 1954 levels, according to Harold K. Cherry of the Port land field office of the depart ment of commerce.

Air Reserve Unit Seeking Enlistments The 9417 - Air Reserve squadron in Medford is now enlisting veterans from any branch of the military serv ices, according to Lt. Col. Manville Heisel, commanding officer of the local unit. New enlistment - periods run from two to six years, he said.

' House Trailer Fees Change on Jan. 1 Salem - Oregon house trail er owners will be paying a new schedule of fees starting Jan. 1 when a law adopted by the last legislature be comes effective. The new law establishes a flat registration fee and a license fee based on market value. A $6 registration fee for all house trailers will replace the former $15-$25 fee. The new license fee will be 2 per cent of 80 per cent of the trailer's original market val ue. This will be reduced about 10 per cent each year for the first iive years after sold, and 5 per cent for the next four years. After nine years there is no reduction. The department of motor vehicles is charged with col lection of both fees. It will distribute collected license fees to the counties of regis tration. This fee replaces the property tax formerly col lected by the counties. All house trailers with an over-all length of at least 12 feet and six feet high from floor to ceiling are now re quired to be licensed and ree- istered whether or not they are used on a public road. The fee applies even if trailers are stored. The only excep tions are for trailers held by dealers and for trailers per manently fixed on land by foundation, attached struc tures or fixed pipe connections.
