By PRISCILLA AVERILL Mail Tribune Correspondent GRANTS PASS-lf you ever plan to move a lumber mill, Al Avey of Kettle Falls, Wash., can tell you how. Avey, with a crew of five re cently undertook the task of dis mantling the Moore Timber Products planing mill at Grants Pass and transporting it lock stock and barrel about 700 miles of highway to the northeast cor ner of Washington. Bidding for Avey Brothers Lumber Company of Kettle Falls, Avey was the biggest buy er when Moore Timber Prod ucts mills and equipment here and at O'Brien were sold at auction in mid-October. Has Small Problem When the bidding was over he found himself with $37,000 worth of varied equipment including the main part of the planing mill and its complete electrical system and one small prob lem: how to get it all from down here" near the Califor nia border to "up there" near the Canadian border. To someone from anywhere else, this might have been a big problem, but Avey is no stran ger to moving operations his whole town whs once moved. Kettle Falls" has its claim to fame in that It was not always in its present location on the shores of Lake Roosevelt. It was moved there lock, stock and barrel, a la Arlington, Ore., Driver Cited After Accident in City Gary Arthur Nicdermeyer, 18, of 1014 Old Stage Road, was cited for Violation of basic rule following a two - car collision Thursday morning, according to Modford police.

Now, with the Moore planing mill to be moved there, Avey flew back to Kettle Falls for men and trucks from Avey En terprises, which . he operates with his brother Art. They re turned to join 150 other buyers who have been spending the past three weeks removing various parts of the Moore mills at Grants Pass and O'Brien. Skeletons Will Remain Soon only skeletons will re main of the two mills which have operated here for the past 20 years. The decision to close them came earlier this year, forced by "loo much competi tion for stumpage" and "an un realistic wage schedule," ac cording to R. T. Mooro, Jr., of Grants Pass, president of Moore Timber Products. A: long successful local bid ders was Cheney Studs, of Cen tral Point, who bought the eight foot band mill at O'Brien. Parts of tho sawmill nt O'Brien will go to Canada and California.
