As utilization has grown, it has
steadily widened the possibilities
for logging out the leftovers of
yesterday, while serving in the
sawmills—in the large ones, at
least—to banish the old-time re­
fuse burner with the giant red
eye.
So, since 1933, the salvage log­
gers have returned as many as
five times to comb some areas of
the Tillamook Burn. One hun­
dred or more salvage logging op­
erations are at work there now
They are taking out sizes and
grades of timber that the expert
estimators of 1934 could not see
as possible material for profitable
conversion into building products
But now those sizes and grades
are usable.
And so, despite y ears of dead
timber decay, today's estimates
for total salvage from the Tilla­
mook Burn exceed the 1934 esti.

to Serve You!
Our goal is now, as it has always been, to bring you the best
possible telephone service at the lowest possible cost. But
costs continue to go up. as the following illustrations show:
At the close of World War II, it required an investment of
$193 for each new telephone we added to our system. By
mid-1952 this figure had risen to $392. Last year costs con­
tinued to rise so that at the end of 1953 an investment of
$436 was required for every added telephone.
In 1940, it cost us $33 per telephone to keep our system
running. But these costs have more than doubled since then.

SAWS FOR RENT
Wc have pledged to bring you telephone service as fine as
is available anywhere, but to keep this promise requires a
tremendous investment in physical property, in what we
call our "plant.” In 1946, our plant in service totalled
$7,838,108. By the end of 1952 this had soared to $21,530,847
and during last year it rose another 15% to reach $24,725,122.
This is not all that we have spent, either, for since the end of
1945 we have spent a total of $21,456,490 to improve our
facilities and make more telephonea available for more people.
Wc nre determined to bring you the fineat possible telephone
service at the lowest possible cost, and we will continue
to improve and expand our facilities as rapidly as our earn­
ings and available capital permit.
