F O R E S TR Y BOARD GETS ITS EARS PIN N ED BY County judges and commissioners from seven Oregon coast counties descended on the Board of Forestry here this week with blood in their eyes. The county officials charged the state forester with failure to cooperate in a practical program of fire prevention and control as well as obstructing the development of grazing in timbered areas by with holding burning permits. The dele gation also asked for state aid in solving a scries financial problems brought on by the rapid depletion o f the timber supply along the coast, a development that is gradually re ducing the tax base in these coun ties, piling the burden of govern mental costs upon other properties to a point approaching confisca tion. Judge Guy Boyington of Clat sop county, spokesman for the dele gation. told the forestry board that assessed valuations in his county had decreased from $41.000.000 to $16.000.000 in a single generation. The situation in Clatsop county was said by others in the delega tion to be typical of the situation in all the coast counties.

Mrs. Marshall and her son and H. Loy and his wife. M r .and Mrs. Chuck Share might not pass as formal entertainers but among us farmers they are just what we want and like. They surely spread a little sunshine. The way Chuck talks and the way he screws up his face when he laughs and he keeps us lauging all the time too, and his wife is just as jolly as he. Here is some idea of how the day was spent: Chuck says "along in the forenoon a car drove up with a load of people in it, so he goes out and kills a couple o f old roosters.” (M -M -M does that sound good) “ and about the time they were dressed and ready a couple more cars drove up. So he goes out and beheads a couple more roosters.” (more good). Chuck used to ride for and with Mr. Loy years ago in the upper Owyhee county. He says he and Mr. Loy used to get a big kick out of sometimes they would go into a store together and after a pur chase he would present a check on Loy for payment and the merchant would look at it and say H. Loy is he a Chinaman. Tis like Chuck to remember those things. He relates that after dinner he and Loy got to cussing and dis cussing many things in general and finally got on the subject of our $100,000 bond issue and the road that we hope to get. He said they were making a few pretty radical statements alright and he noticed the girls were taking down some notes and still along in the evening they were somewhat surprised when they produced the Cow Hollow W H. Beam, Warren Blodgett and son of Nyssa were week end guests at the E. J. Beam home. Mr. and Mrs. Ray Prescott, Mrs. John Sernas of Monument and Mrs Bob DeArmond have all been guests o f their sister and daughter, Mrs. Bruce Lofton.

For some reasn of his own he never paid his water maintenance until along time after his time had ex pired. We don’t know of he ever offered his filing papers or not It is reported that there were six different applications in the recla mation office at Boise for this homestead and W. L.
