Graded Hardwoods Receive

Log and lumber grading rulea
for weat coast hardwoods would
benefit loggera. mlllmfn and con
aumera In buying and selling, ac
cording to Oregon forest products
laboratory technologtsla.
Such aystem would Insure a
Uniform product lor pitrlUtilnr use.
And It would eliminate the guesa
work In estimating log worth.
These, statements have been Is
aued by A. U. Wollm ol Die U 8
forest produtut laboratory, Madl
aon, Wis., who was adviser for an
Oregon hardwood grading attidy.
Jack rfelller of tlie Oregon lorest
products laboratory waa field di
rector and Clyde Randall assisted.
Alder, one of Ion major Oregon
hardwoods. -:was aelected for the
Initial aludy. 'The laboratory plana
to make a thorough aludy ol all
Oregon hardwooda In Ihe near fu
ture, I'felffer added.
More than too aider logs at the
L. R. Bmllh Hardwood company,
Longvlcw, Wash., and (he Vrul and
Son Furniture company, Albany,
were checked for exterior defects.
Overgrown knots, llmha, dark dis
tortions, splits, mrchanlcul Injuries
and other delrcta were recorded.
From Ihe Information gathered
on the three-week summer field
aludy, Pfeiffer will he able lo de
termine the pert'enlage of various
ldmber grades that can be expect-
al
no further dumage of consequence,
In must cases the yield la not af
fected at that point.
However, he aald, If alem ruat
apjH-ara aerloua trouble la apt to
develop, and he warned farmera
lo watch for It. Generally. BahoU
forecast no aerloua trouble In the
Tulelake Haain unleaa unforeseen
clrcumalancea arise
ed from apeclflc aider logs.
In Oregon, alder haa been con
sidered an Inferior species be
cause the logs have been Judged
poor by their external appearance.
Lumber gradea from these loga
have compared favorably wllh lum
ber obtained from aecond growth
stands of eastern species, Pfelffar
conllnued.
! National Hardwood Lumber as-
aoclatlon grading rules are well
adapted to I'acllic coast hardwood
used for factory lumber, tho wood
technologists said. About 1B.000.000
board feel ol alder are cut In Ore
gon each year, mainly lor lurnl
tore use. Alder grows predominate
ly west of the Oregon Cascades.
An Increased Oregon hardwood
market has failed to develop be
cause of a general ack-of-appre-clation"
altitude. Pfeiffer remarked.
Lack of rules for a standard pro
duct and an Irregulr source of sup
ply also have hindered Ihe hard
wood business, Pfeiffer concluded.

most powerful aver put in a Buick.
There's the thrift of its Airpower carburetor
a four-barrel automatic that literally brings
increased power right out of thin air.
There's its hushed and luxurious silence hs
poised and level ride that cost a million dollars
to develop and the infinite smooth ryes of its
Dyn allow Drive.
B ut the thing that has brought the most cheers
for this big and obedient beauty is Buick's ver
sion of Power Steering.
Gone is the tug of turning, parking, mamuver
ing m small space.
Power Steering takes over the effort of turn
ing the front wheels makes it a one-hand
operation.
Do you have to learn to drive all over again

m definitely do not. On the open rood, yrjeJ
have that same sure sense of command that
you've always had. Coming out of a curve,
you can loosen your grip, and the front wheels
right themselves uet as they do on every Bwlck.
But you'll notice this: When you suddenly hit
loose dirt or sand-or a stretch of rough road
Power Steering smoothly goes into action '
helps take up the jerk makes control of the
wheel easier and driving safer.
Wouldn't you like to try out this newest wonder
on a Roadmaster or a SuperP oh say tho
