OCTOE5-EK S. 1963 Rangers End Seeding Job LAKEVIEW The Fremont For est Service has announced the completion of a seeding and mulchinq job on 12 miles of the South Warner forest road. The work was done with the use of a mulching machine borrowed from the Rogue River National Forest. The seeding and mulching is intended to revecctate, cut and fill sloncs to reduce erosion and maintenance of the drainage ditch es of the road. The machine is towed behind a one ton truck, and applies straw mulch and fertilizer in one operation through a blower system. Grass seed is applied with the same machine. About three fourths of a Inn of straw per aero is applied with 100 pounds of nitrogen fertilizer. Grass seed was broadcast at the rate of eight pounds per acre, made up of timothy, two pounds of orchard grass and four pounds of Alia les cue. This job is one of the first at tempted by the Forest Service un der east side conditions. The work is common practice in western Oregon to prevent heavy washing caused by the heavy rains which occur in that area. The results of the South Warner job will do termine if more nl this kind of work will be done.

OUTWARD TO THE STARS (19) First Men to the Moon By Don Oakley and Ralph Lane 7 ,V 7f 1 twn MA 0 r ' 1 4. m MM -a (1) Assembly completed, fuel and equipment loaded and crew installed in their spherical cabin, the Moon rocket is ready for its pioneer voyage. Already moving some 15,000 miles per hour alongside the space station in a two-hour orbit around the Earth, the Moon ship ignites its rockets and pulls slowly away from the mother base. Still a satellite of Earth, it accelerates under timed rocket firings in a widening spiral orbit. When at the precise position in reference to the Moon, a Anal blast of its rockets brings it up to escape velocity (approximately 25,000 m.p.h.) and the Moon ship hurls itself away from Earth like a pebble from a cosmic slingshot. oiSt of moon"' PATH OF ) moon y ' .

Any error in course can be corrected by using the rockets. Now at escape velocity, but still under the in fluence of Earth's gravity, the ship coasts with de creasing momentum until the gravity of the Moon takes over. It then begins falling with mounting speed toward the Moon. The trip could be short ened by using power, but this method makes the most economical use of fuel. (3) The first manned ship will probably not attempt a landing on that body, but will remain in orbit around it for a period, investigating and pho tographing its surface, particularly that side never seen from Earth. An actual landing will come later, after more is learned of the Moon in its "vir gin" state, and before chance contamination by ' bacteria carried from Earth distorts the findings of scientists. To return to the space station, the same procedure will be used as at the beginning. This time a velocity of only about 5,400 m.pJi. will bo required to escape Moon's pult Next: Landing on the Moon, Fall Extension Classes Will Begin Next Week Fall term evening extension classes, for college credit avail able to residents ot Klamath Falls and 'Lakevicw, will begin next week.

WALZER I PI Financial Editor NEW YORK (UPII-Stockhold-1 ers apparently are going to fare better than Uncle Sam in 1958 in corporate disbursements. Here's the way it works out, using Standard & Poor's figures: Corporation profits before taxes in 1958 will he $H5.5 billion against $4.1.4 billion in 1957. That's a de cline of nearly $8 billion. Corporations' tax liability will be $17.7 billion against $21.6 bil lion in 1957. That's a decline of around $4 billion. Profits after taxes will be around $17.8 billion, against $21.8 billion in 1957. That's a decline of $4 billion. But dividends Ihe stockholders' share will be around $12 billion, against $12.4 billion, the record, in 1:157. That's a decline of only S400 million. In other words, Uncle Sam's lake will be cut $4 billion while stockholders' take will be down only $4(10 million. The good uncle lakes a slap ten times as hard as the stockholders. And that's, of course, one of the contributing factors to the $12.2 billion deficit for this fiscal year. The reason for this situation is that corporations in 198 will pay out about 7 per cent of their profits in dividends. In 1957 they paid out 57 per cent. The $12 billion in dividends estimated by Standard & Poor's for this year is the same amount paid out in 1958 and up to then that was a record. Back in 1929 when the payout was 69 per cent, stockholders re ceived $5.8 billion in dividends out of $8.4 billion of net profits after faxes. The reason given for the bigger payout expected this year is that there is less pressure to retain profits to meet financial require ments of business. Plant and equipment expenditures in 1958 are estimated down about 16 per cent from 1957. Inventories have been reduced on a broad scale, also leading cor porations to distribute a larger proportion of their earnings lhan in recent years. The payout in 1956 was 52 per cent and in 1953, 49 per cent. Standard notes that the months immediately ahead represent the most bountiful dividend season of the year. Because of year-end extras December in the past has accounted for about 20 per cent of the annual total. Standard looks for a consider able reduction in Ihe number of YREKA Members of the Siski-:extra dividends this year you Community Concerts will have Being a variable factor, Ihe the onnoiliinitv to eniov three con- statistical firm notes, "these pay ceils this season The first one, mrnls will reflect this year's drop October 28. will feature Ozan Marsh, pianist, who is a featured oloist with orchestras of San Francisco, Boston.

Standard lists many candidates for dividend increases of year end extras. The list includes siz able groups of banks, building equipments, drugs and cosmetics food products, retail trade, and utilities. Several tobaccos are in Ihe groups and a considerable number of oil and railroad com panies.
