W, about the man building the fin oat muuaotrup still holds good In other mechanical endeavors. Will Evans, Dorris contractor. found this so when he began carving beautiful bowls of all sizes from tho native bonlta wood this past winter. A fow of thorn were made from the groan bonlta, but almost every thing haa been fashioned from dead trunka or stumps. Ills famo In this line grew until people began traveling from Yreka, Redding and other points to , soe the attractive articles mude by Evans In his spare moments. Now othor woods have come Into use In strange and beauti ful combinations, natural and highly polished finishes. Evans states he has found old Juniper best lor wood working. Down near the lower part of the stump Is the prettiest and curli est grain, Ho said that many people class Juniper as cedar, and do not know that the two are distinctly different kinds of wood. But he states it can be readily discerned when samples of the two woods are placed side by side. On display at his house and In his workshop are beautiful stands for table lamps, made of Inlays of Juniper, cedar, bon lta or yellow poplar. These are finished wltli a high French polish, the Inlay pattern being controlled partly by the shape of the stand two lamps being looking different because the dlffcrwnt shapes make the In lays of each appear to be placed in a varied pattern. HIS pipe holders and bowls he has fashioned from cedar, Juniper and bonlta woods. And the other day Evans was able to get a very wonderful piece of old black walnut. This he has placed on his high season ing shelf and is already conjur ing up visions of what thing of beauty It will make. In his youth Evans took a great Interest in archery and now he plans to make some bows from Juniper, which he states makes the finest bows for archery. He says it must ba procured where the heart and sap come together in the limb, the latter being at least five feet long. He plans to rough it out in green wood, then sea son it, and turn it in the lathe at the proper moment. In speaking of the durability of bonlta wood, Evans relates of a man who years ago com plained because every two years he had to replace "the brass slide heads on his engine. Some one turned out set made of bonlta wood and these were in stalled In place of the brass. In six years' time the one set had not even started to wear. Perhaps its durability is why the tough little bonlta, or moun tain mahogany, has maintained IU habitat in this part of the country.
