MLut'OMD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD. 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-

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."

All-time records were estab
lished in acres planted, acres
seeded, and number of snags
felled, Youngblood said.
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

Recreation on BLM lands
i" becoming increasingly im

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.
