City, Jackson County Featured
In National Forestry Magazine
Medford and its sister com
munities throughout Jackson
county are the subject of an
article in a national forestry
magazine this month.
The American Tree Farmer
and Forestry Digest, publish
ed by American forest Prod
ucts Industries, Washington,
D. C.,- devotes a centerspread
feature in its current Issue to
the history of the Rogue river
basin, and the "hidden main
spring" of timber which spur
red the area's growth.
Most of the privately owned
timberland In the county is
enrolled in the industry-sponsored
tree farm program to
grow timber as a crop, and
another 840,000 acres of government-owned
timber in the
county is also under a perpetual-yield
program, the ar
ticle points out, so the bulk
of the 1.5 million acres of for
est land in the county Is for
mally committed to manage
ment programs.
Traces Development
The magazine traces Bed
ford's development from its
early day frontier flavor to
the thriving community it is
today.
"In 1885," the article says

The region's forest Indus

patterns in the creation of
products and processes, says
the Digest. It cites the efforts
of firms which are finding
markets for bark mulch, per
fecting techniques for pack
aged handling of lumber, op
ening markets for the area's
beautiful black and white oak,
and integrating operations to
increase utilization standards.
Progressive Standards
"With new markets have
come growing timber values
and In turn progressive for
estry standards," it declares.
Evaluating the basin, the
forestry magazine suggests
that opportunity, location and
climate have speeded its
growth.
"Newcomers are delighted
with the mild climate - aver
aging a year-round 58 degrees

Protection from Firo
The men who manage the
basin's productive forest Wnds
are working closely to protect
them from fire, says the Di
gest, and private operators
have set up one of the na
tion's truly outstanding coop
erative mobile radio networks
through their local industry
organization; Southern Ore
gon Conservation and Tree
Farm association.
The county's forest indus
tries employ more than 4,000
people directly with a payroll
of some $24,000,000 annual
ly, and produce lumber and
plywood valued at $75,000,000
a year.
In addition to this economic
activity, communities in the
Rogue basin offer a variety of
cultural activity. Medford's
civic music association pre
sents winter-month concerts,
and nearby Ashland is famous
for its annual Shakespearean
festival each August.

Milk Is a Necessity and
Can't B Duplicated
All mammals must start life
with milk, a common iluld
that the chemist can break
down into such simple and
silly components as water,
sugar, salts, ash and a certain
amount of little round glob
ules known as butter-tat.
The more of these globules,
the richer the milk, the num
ber of them depending on the
species of warm blooded mam
mals that secreted the fluid.
The same chemist, afler
classifying and carefully
measuring the components,
even to a thousandth of a
point, knows exactly the
amount of each in a given
amount of milk. He can (urn
around and purchase just the
right amount of each, mix
them all together, add just the
proper amount of water, and
what would you suppose he
would have? He wottlrf simply
have a mess. It wouldn't be
miik..
Something Extra. '
There's a little something in
milk that the chemist cannot
add;- something he cannot
classify or duplicate. Theve ac
tually was a man once, who
thought he was smart enough
to Invent a machine that could
manufacture milk. Had he
waited until he successfully
made such a Tfincmne, he
would have starved to death.
He didn't know enough, and.
no one else 'does.
Fundamentally, the milk
from all mammals Is the same,
differing only in the propor
tion in which all the elements
are present. A baby elephant

Nature figured this all out,
way back in the very begin
ning of time, and the formula
must have been correct for all
these animals continued to
survive, and given a chnnce

hood. ,
Ordinarily, we think of
milk only as ilrai material:
secured from cows. We also
know that the milk, manu
factured by the cow's body
chemistry, was rierived from
grass or grain. This is neces
sarily true, too, of (he goat,
horse and the elephant; all
the indirect result of plant
food. -.
The baby whale, seai, sea

diet ofaStsh. Some flab, namely
the mullet, that subsist entire
ly on vegetable mutter, fur
nish food for the porpoise, so
vegetable matter in a round
about way also feeds the baby
povyioise. ;, .
It matters little whether an
adult man, mouse, bat or por
poise subsists on grain, meat,
fish, flesh, lnsetts or hay-
They had to have milk to start I
with. Little womler that .the!
whitish fluid secreted by all j
female mammals is recognised
as the perfect fopd. ; : :
The other kind; "She milk ol

we hear about so of ten, but so
seldom find; it seems to be)
the scarcest one oi them all.
