I Some keep the forest from pro- uuiuig mine timers steal wnai is already there. This is the way Dr. Lewis F. Roth, forest pathologist with the Oregon State university ag ricultural experiment station, sees the fight against insidious and inconspicuous diseases which annually rob Oregon and the nation of billions of board feet of timber. An example is pine dwarf mistletoe which suppresses its host tree and reduces wood yield. It gathers its food from within the host tree, thereby eliminating the need for leaves, a fact which sets this pest apart from the popular holiday deco ration. Dwarf mistletoe can oc cur on almost any coniferous tree, but in Oregon is most com mon in Ponderosa pine and in high elevation Douglas fir for ests. An Old Problem Pine dwarf mistletoe is an old problem, but as recently as seven years ago, little research was being done as the forest industry concentrated on har vesting, Dr. Roth explained. Now research is active as the industry becomes more con cerned with growth problems. Dr. Roth is studying pine dwarf mistletoe to determine the effect of natural factors on the incidence of mistletoe and the effects of distinctive char acteristics of host and parasite on disease severity. Aspects of damage and possibilities of ge netic control are also receiving j some attention. Two OSU graduate students are studying other aspects of the problem. One is examining nutritional relationships of host and parasite while the other is working on mistletoe seed physi ology. Has Research Projects Dr. Roth also has research projects going on other diseases effecting tree growth. He is working on top rot of Douglas fir, the more prevalent decay of young Douglas fir, and is currently studying the variabil ity of the pathogen. He is also examining the unique and diffi cult disease known as pine nee dle blight. OSU graduate students are working on related projects. Studies are being conducted on the biology of decay by Fomes sub-roseus, a fungus; anatomi cal changes in the bark of Ponderosa pine infected with needle blight; the incidence of fungi in Douglas fir cones, and the incidence and importance of fungi in processed fir seed. Forest disease problems are being recognized more and more as industry emphasis shifts from harvesting to growth, Dr. Roth explained. As long as standing timber was plentiful, no one was too concerned. Be sides, diseases, unlike fire, do their damage quietly and with little fanfare, so that few peo ple are even aware of them, he continued. Decay Takes Heavy Toll Decay, for instance, has taken a heavy toll of wood in old growth forests. Nationally, wood lost to decay about equals that lost by fire, the researcher said, with a third of the na tion's forest disease loss blamed on decay, which steals what is already there. However, Dr. Roth notes, the decay problem is decreasing as the proportion of over-mature old growth shrinks in relation to more vigorous, younger trees. Oregon, generally, is blessed with a relatively low incidence of forest disease, Dr. Roth said, but added that nevertheless cer tain species are so disease rid den that they are not even counted in timber Inventories. As things stand now, losses from disease, insects and storms are about equal. Remain on Alert Oregon must remain constant ly on the alert to every poten tial problem, he warns, as for ests can be liable to epidemics from introduced diseases. This is particularly true of Oregon's extensive pure species forests which produce predominately Douglas fir or Ponderosa pine. The speed with which disease can strike and spread is vividly illustrated by the Port Orford cedar, which is in danger of vanishing completely from na tive forests due to root rot, he said. The disease, which has al ready killed much of the Port Orford cedar, is now spreading to areas previously uncontami-nated. c STAR GAZERH) 5-15-26-371 , lAUtUI iWmay 21 855-64-68-75 776-77-84-85I OIMINI MAY 22 V) 6-21-32 CS-53-78-8J-8H CANCH JUNE 23 JULY 23 11-14 MM 48-59 70 LfO JfS JULY 24 .

One will be established on Eighth st. at the end of the walkway between the county courthouse and annex. The other will be placed on North Riverside ave. in front of Stan ley's restaurant, Bradford said. The box will make it easier for mailing courthouse mail since it will be close to the county print shop and mail pro cessing room, Bradford ex plained. However, the conven tional type of mailbox in front of the courthouse will remain, he added. The box at Stanley's will serve tourists and drivers head ed north. "People can use these two additional mailboxes to drop off their mail on their way to work," Bradford explained. "That way we won't get so many people dropping off mail at the box in front of the post office about 5 o'clock as they leave work. By getting more mail in during the morning we can spread out the processing and take some of the pressure off the late afternoon handling." Exhibit Planned by l il .L rll.
