The loggers, who once be gan their rugged days at dawn when the boss logger bellow ed "day -y-y-light In the swamp," now live In town and drive their cars to work in the woods. The average logger is mar ried now and Is paying for the TV set, the new rug and braces for his kid's teeth. In the old days he was usually a rough-and-ready bachelor living in a woods camp. Today's chain saw muscles are probably as hard as those of the crosscut saw era but the logger's lingo now in cludes words and phrases which were unheard of In the days when the Paul Bunyan legend was being spun. He speaks now of reforesta tion, thinning operation, stand improvement, sustained-yield harvest, prelogging and re logging. 'Tree Farm Age' . These are forestry terms, born of the "tree farm" age, which has swept over the stands of tall timber in the last two decades. The new vo cabulary came into being when growing markets and progress in the greater utiliza tion of each tree harvested turned timber into a renew able crop. Proof of logging's new era may be found in the Rock Lumber Co.'s forest camp at Dale, Ore., where Ray Alls- worth manages the neat, lit tle company-provided commu nity and also runs the commissary. "Though most of the log gers live in town," he said, "we've got 57 people living here. But we sell only two rolls of 'snooze' a week these days." Allswortli explained that there are four cans of snuff, the most pungent form of chewing tobacco and the early logger's favorite, in each roll. "Just four years ago," he said, "we used to sell about eight rolls a week. And in the old camp, 15 years ago we used to sell 15 or even 20 rolls In the same time w V- i '.: . j 4 r3 E7r t i .. m r--t i " ' ..

Be first Edna M.-I get no help or companionship from my hus band. Michael M.-Women today are spoiled. Edna M.-I'm so miserable I just don't know what to do. I've been married ten years and expect a fourth child soon and I just have no help, sympathy or com' panionship from my husband. Mike puts in a lot of over time, but I feel I could do with less money and a little more help in the house. When he comes in from work, he eats, changes his clothes and runs out to the tavern to be with the "boys." He isn't a drunkard, he just drinks beer. But he doesn't get in until all hours. The only change in this routine is when he falls asleep on the couch. The kids don't know their dad and he doesn't know them. He has never helped give one of the kids a bath like other fathers, has never told them a story or watched TV with them. Michael M.-I work hard for my family and I feel entitled to some relaxation at the end of a day. I know plenty of guys who spend all their money on liquor, the horses or women. I don't do any thing like that. My whole paycheck goes to Edna-except for my carfare and Ijeer money. When I get home, the kids are all squalling and Edna is yelling, and it's a regular nuthouse. If I didn't get out I'd go off my rocker. Edna is Rustling Increased? Ag Dept. Wonders Salem - Either rustling has stepped up in Oregon or an unusual number of animals are playing hooky from, the home grasslands. The state department of agriculture's animal division received reports last month of 60 "strayed or stolen" ani mals, owned by 11 farmers and ranchers. Largest loss by a single owner was 23 sheep ana lambs from a western Oregon farm; next sizable, 17 head of beef stock from eastern Oregon. Most of the reported losses occurred since Feb. 1. Buying interest in the com pact American cars is now runlng at a high rate. Esti mates for 1960 compact car sales are over 2 million units. Newspapers play a dominant role in informing consumers about them. In a recent sur vey, more people mentioned newspaper ads andor news paper stories than mentioned any other single information source. A second car for the family is growing in demand. Two car families now comprise about 17 per cent of all fami lies. A recent survey dis closes that another 17 per cent want to buy second cars. In some cases, the second car is a used one. The average au to mobile dealer allocates approximately 72 per cent of his used car advertising bud get for newspapers. APPLEGATE CENSUS Applegate Vallev - Census taker for the Applegate area Is Mrs. Chester Kubli of Med ford. She is covering the ter ritory southward from Jack sonville hill to the California line and west to the Josephine county line. constantly complaining about something or other and yell ing at me. I can't see where Edna has any kick coming. My mother raised a family of eight and half the time Dad was on the road. Sometimes we didn't see him for months. I never heard one word of complaint out of my mother. Women to day are spoiled. Th. Council: We doubt very much whether times have changed as much as some people think. We suspect there always were selfish and unselfish men and women, and the selfish ones always found arguments to justify their behavior. Possibly Michael's father had to be on the road to earn a living and his mother ac cepted this situation. Possibly his mother was the kind who bottled up her unhapplness and hurt. Probably Michael never even bothered to no tice that his mother was ex hausted and that she would have liked a little compan ionship, rest and relaxation. We do think, however, that most men today have been educated to understand that i they will be happier if their wives are happier, and they j have learned that women i need more than babies and I pots and pans to keep them happy. It is Michael's misfor tune that he hasn't learned these facts. If there were a Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Wives, they'd find a good case here. But there is no such thing. We can only ask Mi chael to open his eyes and look at the simple fact that his wife is becoming physi cally and emotionally drain ed by the life she is living. Michael seems pleased with himself that he isn't a drunk ard, gambler or wife-beater. but we place him only a notch or two above that level. Aside from this, Michael is cheating his children and himself. He knows nothing of the rich pleasures of father hood, and his children will never know the many things that can only be learned from a fnllier. But ot course, miKe prefers to be a boy among the boys." (Copyright 1960. General Features Corp.) Fight Not Blamed In Death of Man Salem - (UPD - An autopsy shows that William M.
