OREGON Timber Sold by BLM During Year A flurry of bidding during the three-month period end ing June 30 has boosted the bureau of land management final fiscal year timber sales figures over 232 million board feet valued at more than S4.6 million. Ross Youngblood, BLM dis trict manager, noted that "this was not up to the record fig ures for last year 241 mil lion board feet and $5.6 mil lion but was good consid ering the fluctuation in the market and the extreme win ter weather that occurred this year." BLM's timber program is its biggest money producer, but an overall resource manage ment program is conducted on the entire 905,000 acres with in the district. Largest Activity Timber sales is the largest activity performed on BLM lands. During the last quar ter (April-June) of fiscal year 1902, 93.6 million board feet of timber valued at almost $2 million was sold, Youngblood noted. This brought the year ly total to 232,244,000 board feet having a value of S4.695, 405.78. Timber this year sold from 81 advertised tracts lo cated in five counties - Jack son, Josephine, Douglas, Klamath, and Coos. Collections from timber sales amounted to 95 per cent of BLM'S receipts. More than S6.5 million was collected dur ing the 12-month period, he said. Other sources of income to taled nearly $211,000, includ ing funds from sale of rock; trespass (occupancy, fire, tim oer, and right-of-way); graz ing; special land-use permits; right-of-way basic fees; road use fees; road maintenance fees; and miscellaneous fees. Trends In Bid Prices "It is interesting to note certain trends in bid prices," Youngblood observed. High $ids for Douglas fir and Pon dcrosa pine timber during the last quarter of this year were S35.50 and $32.10, respective ly. Last year, during the com parable period the highs were Douglas fir $39.50 and Ponder osa pine $41.56. Roads on BLM lands are planned, constructed, and maintained to form a perma nent, integrated road net work, thus allowing the pub lic access for recreational use California Educator Discusses Needs of School at Workshop Siilem-Dr. John I. Goodlad, professor of education at (he University of California at Los Angeles, talked with Ore gon Program Workshop par ticipants last week about two basic school needs Those needs arc "ceognizing and supporting individual dif ferences in children, and rec ognizing and remedying edu cational ills of children. Educators should be taught in teacher training institu tions to recognize and deal with individual differences, the California educator em phasized. Gnodlad elaborated by sav ing that teachers need to meet individual differences, which he defined as the way young sters behave in any given trait, by working at many grade levels in any one class. even when youngsters are separated aceordine to ability. Supports Nongraded Schools He supported nongradod schools by advocating that in dividual differences could be dealt with in part by eliminat ing grade standards, grade barriers, and grades. Goodlad said he did r.ot en dorse nongraded schools be cause they would solve disci pline problems, make teach ing easier, maintain status quo. or because achievement would automatically go up. However, he said, schools must recognize and reward a wide range of human talent and within any simile talent recognize the widest possible behavior, which can be best accomplished in nongraded schools. Can Be Justified Nongraded schools ran be justified, Goodlad continued, because graded schools are completely illogical in rela tion In individual differences. Gonrilad observed that thou sands of learners pass through school with their learning ills never being diagnosed. Many children possessing these learning ills are both con- r l if PAINT WITH IttatutflcHCl and also allowing economical access for future forest pro duction. During the last three months BLM has accepted completion of 37 miles of timber access road. The Keno access road, 27 miles long, will tap 840 mil lion board feet of tributary timber. It also will provide a direct route for recreational ists from Klamath Falls to Howard Prai.'ie. Deer Creek Road The Deer Creek access road has been completed. It is nine miles long and will allow ac cess from Selma to the Wil liams area. This road will make available more than 100 million board feet for planned harvest. A one-mile access road up Rock Creek in the Trail unit was accepted in May. It will make another 200 million board feet attainable for harvest, Youngblood not ed. New projects begun during the last three months were East Fork Evans creek - 7.3 miles which will make available 100 million board feet, and the Pleasant creek bridge project, 125 million board feet of tributary timber. This year contractors con structed more than 84 miles of road under timber sale con tracts. Twenty-two miles of this was completed during the last three -month period, Youngblood said. In Final Stages The district manager also reported the Almeda road con struction project to be in the final stages; bridge comple tion is scheduled in October, 1962. The Powell creek proj ect will be finished in July, 1962. The Cantrall bridge was dedicated. The bridge affords access over the Applegate riv er and will tap another 64 million board feet of timber. BLM's access acquisition programs acquired seven ease ments last quarter to open up 32 million board feet. Two right-of-way permits also were completed. This brought the year's acquisition total to 49 easements with a tributary volume over 542 million board feet, and 26 right-of-way permits issued. Reforestation is BLM's key to permanent forest produc tion. This year's program was the most intensive ever carried out in the Medford district. demned and humiliated for Dcnavior the schools have not sought to correct. In advocating nongraded schools, Goodlad said "the present oreani7atinn of schools, in which we have allowed self-contained class rooms which Got ehnnnerf info a number of Dieces is fallaci ous to our education today." "Graded expectancies," Goodlad maintained, "have er roneous meanings and that is why we must destroy them." Orarfe levels are all richt used only as a classification device, he explained, but mere is now a build-in of expectations for certain grades. These expectations make continuous progress, which Is the most imDortant element in learning, difficult. Goodlad said he would be in favor of graded classes if they did not handicap the continuous learning progress. Planning Curricula Goodlad CommnnfnH Ilia, in planning curricula, educators must move to more fundamen tal methods of Inqttirv. more fundamental knowledge, and more fundamental concepts undorlyinz knowledge. Emphasis must no longer be on "is the child readv for school?" hut. rather, to take the immature child and ask whal can be provided for him Teachers must stop talking about the limitations of home environment and social inade quacies. Goodlad also pointed out that if educators are going lo imnrove curricula of schools today, thev must knn iha;- eyes alert to all their "sacred 1 cows" and "kill" Ihem. j What is wrong with ednca i 'ion today is not prngressive- ness, forwardlooking proce jdures. willingness to change. I or criticisms of public pa ; trons. Goodlad said. "3ut rather," he said, "it Is lethargy, unwillingness to change, and unjustified fear of criticism." t njr Buy Paint Whan TREASURE TONES covers in one?

Seedlings Planted A total of 2.5 million seed lings were planted on 4,100 acres, and over a ton of seed was dispersed on nearly 3,000 acres of BLM lands. Rehabili tation was accomplished at a record pace. More than 2,414 snags were felled on 509 acres. Brush was removed from 545 acres by mechanical scarifi cation, and from 683 acres by the use of chemicals. Contracts were awarded for an additional 3.300 snags to be felled and for 814 more acres to be scarified. Blister rust operations were continued on BLM lands. Ribes control measures were taken on over two thousand acres by the use of direct eradication and by the use of chemical sprays. Research Continues Research is still trying lo find the answer for a solution to the blister rjst disease problem. Anti-biotie tests were completed on the 100 acre Mt. Ruben test area. Hun dreds of pollination bags have been placed on rust resistant sugar pine trees. Cross pollination from these naturally resistant trees may produce rust resistant seed I lB H lkl li less Fittings lj i"fi 19x17-'n- Lavatory iJCj Toilel in Slain. j mP' resistant China I CABINET ffrrr BATHROOM 16"x26" 3-Shelf Ml--U Fits Flush AQC IsInSSI LIGHTS Crystal I Mirror J A ift if I S QUIET 3 Stainless Steel Self-Rimming Sink 32x21-ln.

Recreation on BLM lands i" becoming increasingly im portant and an expanding pro gram is being planned to meet the public demands, Young blood said. Presently, seven recreation areas have been constructed on BLM lands. Many others have been opened on BLM lands in co-operation with lo cal counties. Plans have been initiated to build four more recreation areas next fiscal year. As more funds are made avail able, many other selected sites will be developed, he said.

Youngblood noted that on "Aug. 28, PLM will commem orate the 25th anniversary of the O and C Sustained Yield Act the law by which it manages 90 per cent of its lands." This was the first law to re quire any federal forests to be managed for permanent forest production.
