Any woodland owner who is willing to manage his western Oregon timber land for continu ing crops of forest products is e.igible to have his farm certi fied as a West Coast Tree Farm, SCS Soil Conservationist Virgil Lance stated. In explaining the certification Lance stated that being certified as a tree farm does not change the status of the woodland in respect to taxation as some peo ple believe. Certification is a means of promoting good man agement of privately owned tim ber lands, it was emphasized. Sponsors of the tree farm pro gram and certification in west ern Oregon is the Industrial For estry association which is made up of the forest owners, loggers r.id mill owners throughout the area. The program started in the Pacific Northwest and spread across the country until now there ar* more than -4 million 1 acres of certified tree farms, a. pledged to the pzvgrm& of mam- j t-iuung a pe t tomber «up ply fee tinear regirms t mw timer tiecnuxi hi ■ vjiertec -aúnas ir unpmusi ■Tie® h« begin to climb th» tuti O»- «V «news;. --- ---- ------ ------- , Phone HA 9-3462 MOTOR FREIGHT ADMIRAL TV Appliances • Low Down Payment • • 12 Months to Pay.

Some of the history of scouting is interesting. Robert S. S. Baden-Powell, dur- his work as an army officer in charge of the South African Con stabulary developed certain me thods and ideas which later were the foundation of the Boy Scout movement. He found the men who were sent out to him from the large cities of the. British Isles lacking in dependability, initiative and resourcefulness, self-r e 1 i a n c e and cooperation. They, figuratively, expected to be “tucked in at night.” They knew nothing of woodcraft nor had they any idea how to make and keep themselves physically fit. In England he was amazed to find that the program materia) he had developed as aids to military men was being used by loaders in various girls’ and boys’ organiza tions Seeing a challenge, he as sembled a library of b<x>ks re I lated to youth programs and with I th is background, set up his first scouting laboratory to test his theories on a program for boys In August 1907 he operated the first Boy Scout tn*op with him self as Scoutmaster at a camp on Brownsea island off the coast of England He recruited his boys, organized them into patrols under patrol leaders and for two weeks carried on a program on this da sis This gave 1 tum matenals f<.w the first Boy Scout hand- book. W. D. Boyce, a Chicago pub- hsher. was seeking a difficult ad- dress in London on a foggy night in the fall of 1909 when a boy approached, saluted and asked if he might help. Boyce accepted and after finding the address, of fered the boy a shilling. The Scout refused, saying that a Scout doesn’t accept tips for be ing helpful. What Boyce learned of Scout ing impressed him enough to se cure and bring to America a trunk full of literature on the sub ject as well as uniforms, badges and insignia with which he in terested several other prominent American business men.

The chapter of FFA here was a mem bership of 25 while the national organization is comprised of 382,- 000 members of which 4.000 are Oregon residents. A news item about the Vernonia chapter ap pears els, where ln tHis issue. Membership in FFA is made up of farm boys who are students of vocational agriculture in high school. Boys in these chapters learn speaking, cooperation in programs for individuals and community betterment, sponsor recreational activities, conduct safety campaigns and back home improvement campaigns to men tion som« work they have done. Vocational education in agri culture is a nation-wide, federal ly-aided program of systematic instruction in agricultur’ and farm mechanics conducted in public schools or classes for per sons over 14 years with instruc tion given by teachers who are especially trained agricultural college graduates. In addition to study in school I «J -P u each student is required to conduct a supervised farming program where he puts into actual prac tice the farming knowledge gain- ned in the classroom. As they advance in their work, they are encouraged to expand so that by the time high school is com pleted they will have built up an investment in farming large enough to permit them to farm on a full-time basis or enter a sound partnership agreement with their parents.
