Charles R. Polls, Klamath in
ventor, announced this week
that he had made delivery of
a one-unit, two-operation saw
mill to Cave Junction.
This is the twelfth mill to be
completed since Potts built the
first such null in 1034.
- Advantages of the mill are
four-fold, Potts explained, The
mill performs two operations in
one Job, it requires only five
men to operate the mill ap
proximately one-fourth the dum
ber needed in other methods;
Ihc mill can be loaded on a
truck und moved to another lo
cation with facility, and the size
of the mill requires but little
space.
Thirty thousand board feet of
lumber can b-.- sawed and edged
ill the same operation with the
new machine in an eight-hour
day, employing only five men
to operate. In other methods
the two operations of sawing
ana edging lumoer are separate,
and between 16 and 20 men are
employed to handle the work.
AU-Steel
, The new sawmill Is all
steel and only requires a 48
foot platform. Old mills have
wooden frames thai are built on
90-foot platforms, and have to
be erected from the platform
up, every time milling opera
tions arc moved to a new loca
tion. "Machinery" Potts started
pottering with the idea of the
one-unit all-steel sawing and
edging mill in 1030, and in 1934
the first one was set up in Lit
tle valley. It was moved from

THOSE TINTED
FINGER NAILS
By EARL WHITLOCK
It does seem as If tho ulti
mata must hnvo como out of the
beauty labora
tories In the
matter of tlio
adornment o f
t h e feminine
finger lip. And,
over the pbhI
dozen yours, It f
has been inter
esting to watch
the progress
from the deli
cate tints worn
with great trepidation some
fears ago to tliu present-day
bolder and bitcldor colors (I'm
mire I do not know their names,
but they are decidedly alluring),
And, from tho time spent by tho
Indies In applying and then re
moving and changing thoso vari
ously colored roos, there must
bo a grcnt fascination In tho
process and in the results ob
tained, But I havo been thinking bnck
and, whlio the present fad is
much more colorful, you will
havo to admit that (ho fashion
which wo used to affect when
wo wore kids that bold, black
border at tho oxtromo tip of the
linger that was a nifty and
striking thing. Easily acquired,
too, and as J romcmber, amaz
ingly hard to remove.

of tho Earl Whltlock Funeral

Deadline Is October 18th,"

Pott's shop, then on Market
street, In only two hours. From
Little valley It was moved to
Dayville, where it was pur
chased by the Welsh, brothers,
who operate the Blue Mountain
mills, and moved to Bonanza.
Here it was used to cut out tim
ber for the Kitts Lumber com
pany. Fourteen Completed
Since he started producing the
tpright-edger sawmill, Potts has
completed about 14 machines.
The one just finished will be set
up at Cave Junction. One at
Redding has been in operation
for some time Two others are
row in the process of comple
tion and the one to be finished
this week has been purchased
by Ed Spool at the Mitchell
Pine Lumber company.
Spool's machine has 50-inch
circular saws. The size of the
saws vary according to require
ments and can be changed to
other sizes as needed. This ma
chine also has a friction feed,
differing from the ono for Cave
Junction which has a veritable
belt feed.
Different Plan
Ordinary mills have a differ
ent hookup on the top saw
drive, and there Is a difference
in the way tho belt is laced on
pulleys, Marvin Crank, machin
ist employed by Potts, ex
plained. Potts' mill has a "nig
ger" to turn the logs In place
of tho canthook and turn-down
man used by little milling op
erations. His sawmills can be
operated by either dlcsel power
or electricity.,
Labor Limited
Steel parts have been hard
to get during the war and lt
has been necessary to create
them out of steel by hand and'
make them over to fit particular
needs. Labor' has been limited
in this work, too, with mechan
ics in demand for the service.
Potts' two sons are In the armed
forces, and he has been work
ing with a four-man crew.
Crank has worked with him off
and on since 1934 and operated
the first sawmill eager he made.
Inquiries regarding Potts' in
vention have' come from such
distant parts as the University
of Maine, Old Mexico and South
America. Four or five letters a
week poured in last year, and
Potts received 500 requests for
machines from all over. A man
from Montana was here Friday
to sec about purchasing a ma
chine. "Machinery Potts"
With the end of the war, the
70-year-old Inventor is trying to
make arrangements to have the
parts made up at parts plants,
so they will only need to be as
sembled at his shop under the
copyrighted name of "Machin
ery Potts," which is located at
1633 East Main in an old red
barn - like structure. Sawmills
can then be turned out in quan
tities to supply the increasing
demand. .
Potts has pottered with ma
chinery all his life and construct
ed over 100 mills as a contractor
and builder He has managed
mills and worked in every phase
of the industry. .
In 1924 he went to Odell lake
when it was covered with snow,
with 40 head of horses, a saw
mill and equipment for the
whole outfit. He ran the mill
there, cutting tunnel timbers for
the Southern Pacific railroad,
for the Natron cutoff from here
to Eugene through 1925.
