Shasta - Why Johnny can't read, or is it write, seems to be one of the ques tions bothering minds of edu cators today. One thing sure, neither de ficiency can be blamed to scarcity, nor expensive pro hibitations of lead pencils. They can be bought in many sizes, colors, and other differ ing characteristics. They do all have one thing in common. They are inex pensive. Martin Cooper, ML Shasta sawmill owner, compares the prices of lead pencils to chew ing gum. He says neither have ever advanced in price to keep step with other commo dities, which includes postage stamps. A stick of gum, and a lead pencil stay within the reach of school kids whose elephant coin receptacle takes no par ticular beating to supply. Why this is so, Cooper states, is because manufacturers hew to the line to keep these es sential com modities within reach. Taking into consideration this rock-bottom selling price, one can see that a board foot of cedar lumber will supply material for many lead pen cils. The Cooper Mill at Mt. Shasta annually saws 8 mil lion board feet of incense ce dar, the bulk of which goes into lead pencils. Throwing light on why this essential industry is confined to a few mills in northern California and southern Ore gon, Cooper said Mother Na ture has taken a firm stand in this zoning operation. Incense cedar has proven Court to Inspect Road tor Surfacing The Jackson county court, with County Engineer Rob ert J. Carstenscn, will inspect Scenic ave.

The mill annually sup plies about 8 million board feet of incense cedar for lead pencil manufacturers in the country. conclusively it is the best ma terial to use. It has proven, too, that the small field of northern California and southern Oregon is the only place it will grow. Growing in a restricted lo cality, and with no particular reforestation methods now be ing utilized to promote new growths of cedar, the supply will undoubtedly be exhaust ed some day. When that day comes, ball pens will become even more numerous than they are now. The familiar unpainted cedar stick through which graphite runs, and with a tip of rubber protruding from the top end, many disappear from the American scene.
