White Pine Blister Rust
Worse Than Forest Fire,
Declaration Of Writer
Forost Uv.u diseases arc wor.se than forest flfflB, for
once firmly established eradication is impossilih'. Jf the
Btorv of chestnut blight, white nine blister and forest
fires COUM be told at every fireside so that their effects
could be comprehended, one weighty lesson on forest
conservation would be learned.
The chustnul blight disease was introduced doubtless
on trees, from Asia, probably by some lover of the curi
ous and different. It was first found In North America,
in New york in 19041 To day it has all but destroyed
the vast chestnut forests of the east.

No Picture
We had intended running several pictures, similat to the one that
adorned our front page last week, but we are refraining in accordance
with the expressed wish of practically every logging boss in the district.
They say many of the men who look ed at the picture last week promptly
quit and started for town, and as we don't want to demoralize the Klam
ath county logging industry, we will therefore lay off.
More News Wanted
If you have a milr some place that isn't receiving as much mention as
it should, let us know.
Some of Klamath county's mills are very careless in picking out the
roads that lead to them, and as a result it's impossible to reach them more
than once a month.
Hence, send
