ARAGO TUMBER CO., EMPIR.E, OREGON "Experience Counts"

"The color of the ground was in him; the red earth, the smack and tang of elemental things, sprung from the West. He drank the valorous youth of a new world, the strength of virgin forests braced his mind, the hush of spacious prairies stilled his soul, and his thoughts were roots that firmly gripped the granite truth"'

-Edwin Markham on Lincoln.

"As a nation of free -; ;. i.,st ti.re through all time, or die by suicide."-Lincoln.***

Lincoln is immortal chiefy because, having been clothed with almost absolute power, he never abused it except on the side of mercy.

't**

It was said of Lincoln: "Blessed is that man, and beloved o,f all the gods, who is afraid of no man, and of whom no man is afraid."

Lincotn said of w"rr,i'ioi, llr, ,ol.r'n awe pronounce his name, and in its naked deathless splendor, leave it shining on."

,iri*

The brightest star in the firmament of human virtues is kindliness. In this, Lincoln surpassed all other men. Thus he is immortal. In him there was no ego, no vanity.

once he was makin* "*.r.1, i*p"ra"n, political speech. It was in his first race for Congress, and he was talking strongly. He was interrupted by a voice from the audience, calling, "Howdy Abe."

rt was like interrupti"J;"* in the midst of an aria. Yet Lincoln stopped, and looked into the audience for the caller, and saw an old man, a backwoodsman he had known long before. ***

No humbler person could have been found. But Lincoln smiled at the old man, and answered, "FIow are you, Uncle Jimmy?" Then he continued his speech, only to be interrupted again a minute or so later by the same man.

The old man said, "Ab:, i rJro, to ask you; how are Mary and the babies?" Again Lincoln stopped his oration, and without the slightest show of annoyance.

He replied in kindly ,Jrntlr,,**nile smiling at the old

man, "All well when I left them in Springfield yesterday, Uncle Jimmy; all very well, thank you, my friend." Then he went ahead and finishcd hia speech. ***

Was tfierc ever an incidcnt that more clcarly illustrated the immeasurable benevolence of Lincoln, than that one. Compare that with the character of gome of our leaders of recent years, and gee how great Lincoln really was. Great in the ways of true greatness.

Couldn't pass this time of Lincoln's birthday, without telling that story of the great man. How many characters do you recall in all the history of mankind, who could be safely compared with Lincoln?

Wise men never claim to be wise. They claim only to be seekers after wisdom.

Virgil said, "Happy the man who has learned the causes of things, and has put from under his feet all fears, and the noisy strife of the hell of greed."

Seneca said, "rf ,,rr", yJ., ,l"rrl ,."-, insufrcient to you, then, though you possess the world, you will yet be miserable." ***

Will Durant said, "Woe to him who teaches men faster than they can learn."

Socrates said to Cri,o, 'LJnJ rnina whether the teachers of philosophy are good or bad, but think only of philosophy herself."

Emerson said, "In .*,.rj*ln itr.r" i. something wherein I may learn of him, and in that I am his pupil."

Socrates said, "The hiJ..lnlo*t.ag. is the knowledge of good and evil; the knowledge of the wisdom of life."

Francis Bacon ""ia, "J".tl yJ nr"a the good things of the mind, and the rest will either be supplied, or its loss will not be felt."

* ,< >k

Cicero said, "There is nothing so absurd that it may not be found in the books of the philosophers."

***

But Thoreau insists that "a philosopher is one who loves wisdom and so loves a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity, and trust."

Boom times are periods when we all get rich by charging one another, too much. They are necessarily temporary.

"W'hatever crushes ,"U-ra"A*y is despotism, by whatever name it may be called."-John Stuart Mill.

"The human race just ,]rr',*"olrar,uted to stand uninterrupted prosperity. It takes only a few prosperous years to make men and women careless, vain, and extravagant; to make them neglect their homes and their churches. Just about the time they begin to think they have all the answers, the Almighty knocks them flat and says: .Now, little children, you just lie there a while until you're not quite so cocky."'-C. W. Barron.

He wilt do more in the same time-and he will do it better-and he will persevere longer. One is scarcely sensible to fatigue when he marches to music. The very stars are said to make harmony as they revolve in their sPheres"'

r :r {.

There are three things a man must have in order to realize the fullness of life, and its meaning. First, a faith which will carry him through every storm without fear or despair. Second, a goal in life, which, like a beacon light, shall always shine in the distance, and draw him irresistibly. Third, a sense of humor which will teach him to establish right values. Having this he will learn to win and lose, and he will know that both are life-that one cannot be without the other.

!t**

We've printed this in these columns before, but the philosophy of Lincoln seems particularly appropriate during his birthday season: "You cannot bring about prosperity by,discouraging thrift; you cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong; you cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer; you cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred; you cannot help the poor by destroying the rich; you cannot establish sound security on borrowed money; you cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn; you cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and independence; you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."

And, a smile in closing, Herb Shriner, humorist, says we should change the name of the A-bomb to H-bomb. because that's where it'll blow us.

Y., nritny thtlttsau<ls of fect of these panels are constantly en rottte to thc large lvarehouses of the Western Hardlvood Lumber Cornpany in I-os Angeles, from rvhicl-r they are distribute<l to hundreds of Upson dealers throughout the western Unitcd States.

It was the genius of the late D. J. Cahill that created the organization that is, today, the Western Hardwood I-umber Company, one of the largest rvholesale lumber operations in the country.

In 1906, Mr. Cahill arrived in I-os Angeles from Denver, Colorado, where he had been engaged in the wholesale hardwood lumber business. He bought an interest in a small, struggling lumber yard in Los Angeles and proceeded to build it up. Eventually, he acquired ownership of the business rvhich today is knowrr as the Western Hardrvood Lumber ComPany.

It was four years later, in 1910, that tu'o brothers, Charles A. Upson and W. Harrison Upson, Jr.-thousands of miles away on the Niagara Frontier in Western Nelv York State -set about the organization, also in a modest way, of The Upson Company.

Both brothers had been associated with a large technical paper company in Western New York following their graduation from Wharton School of Finance and Commerce at the University of Pennsylvania.

After turning a previous deficit into a profit and achieving a notable success in that company, they conceived the idea of establishing a plant for the manufacture of more

<lepenclable rvallboard than rvas being made at that time. Their first plant was in three or four scattered buildings where a woolen mill had once been located, and with only 16,000 square feet of floor space. Completely new wallboard-making equipment was installed, much of which had been designed especially for the manufacture of Upson IJoard. For months after the company was incorporated, no attempt rvas made to market the product until it had been perfected.

Across the nation, in Los Angeles, Mr. Cahill had been making a search of the world for commercial hardwoods to supply the varied and gror,ving demands in Southern California. The best hardwoods were brougl-rt from the Orient and other parts of the world and these logs and timbers rvere sawed up at a hardwood sawmill operated by Western Hardu'ood Lumber Company at Los Angeles Harbor. To them was added a supply of all the useful American woods.

Gradually, a large wholesale lumber yard developed. A complete planing mill was established, together with a battery of six dry kilns, a veneer mill, a green bending oak

Pty*ooa is known as the "miracle" wood. How it gets that way ^t Associated Plywood plans is no miracle at all, but rather a combination of outstanding natural and man-made circumstances.

The rich, rain forests of Oregon yield the fine Douglas fir that comes to Associated mills. These mills are among the largest and most modern in the plywood industr/r with a number of manufacturing "firsts" to their credit.

And in these mills work more than 900 skilled craftsmen-men who have had years of training and experience.

The plywood they produce (both exterior and interior panels) is grademarked and rademarkeda double guarantee of product quality and user satisfaction.

APMI uademarked plywood is available in the nation's major building and distribution areas, in stock sizes for most efficient use. Your inquiries are welcomed at Associated mills, or at any of the listed warehouses.

The mill leased and operated by Ben Mast in Jackson Valley, Calif., and owned by George Green of Willits, was recently damaged by fire, rvith a loss estimated at close to $100.000. Because there are no telephones in the vicinity, Jack of Hearts Creek, the mill, equipment, and a quantity of lun'rber on the site burned unchecked. There was plenty of water, but all hoses at the mill were frozen solicl by an early morning freeze.

Mast had just recently completely electrified the mill and installed new equipment at a cost of $10,000. It is reported that he is preparing to start operations of another mill which is near completion.

The California l,umber Merchant, 5Ol3-9- l0 Central lluilding, lOtl West Sixth St., l,os Angeles, C--al.

(ientlenren: Attcntion of Jack l)ionne

On l)ec. 20th, 1949, I wrote you a tctter rvith refcrence to your article, I)cc. l5th issue, in section hcaded, "Vagallond liditorials."

'fhis article was so g<lttd that after I read it a coul>le of tinres, I orderecl one httn<lred copies of it. These rvcre received ancl I took the tr<lullle to mail'them out, allout five cach, to varitltts civic organizations, fraternal orders, .1n1s Cihamber of Cotnmerce, Stockton Chamber of Conrnrerce an<l klcal banks. I received s()me very g<lo<l comtrrents, especially from the State Chamber of Commerce herc in Stockton. They want additi<lnal copies. Horvever, I have none' llut wonder if it is still llossible to get sotlte nlore. I)<>n't forget this article has done a lot rtf good. Ilave other lumbcrmcn taken the trouble as I have done to order somc of thern? If not, they should have.

If you rvill refer, again, to my letter, you will note somewhere in there that I said that if we could unite cnough organizations under one head and work toward the welfare of this country, maybe, we might get rid of some of our un-Atnerican officials, Reds, and subversive elements norv working here to over-throw tl-ris Government of ours.

Whether or not rny thinking is in line, I picked up the San Francisco E,xaminer four or five days ago and noticed that an All American Team is advocated by our National Comrrrander, Geo. N. Craig. Wonderful ! The words spoken would be the exact thoughts I have. So, thank God, that this thought is implanted in some of the minds of those that have to do with shaping the thoughts of members of clubs, fraternal orders, etc. Then there are those like myself who could do a lot of the same kind of work if those at the head of industries would take time out to do so. If not, we are certainly going down the road to ruin and corruption. There is no telling how far this Administration is going to take us, unless we as a whole do something about it.

It might be rvell, if your good paper would direct the thoughts of tl.rose who are subscribers, to this kind of work. It rvill not hurt to try. The more of this that is done right nor', the quicker we will awaken the thoughts of those r,r'ho are more or less thinking, "Let the other fello'iv do it," "Why should I bother about politics ?" And this is about what the average business man thinks.

It is a job for all of us. I want to thank you again for those timely editorials.

Yours truly,

Plc*ic Trcatcd Hord Borrd

Plcstic Treqted Hard Board

A plastic treatment adapted to the manufacture of hard b,rard nrakes possible a new weather resistant hard board suital>le for exterior l>uilding, it is announced by Harold A. Miller, president of Forest Fiber l'roducts Company, F'orest Grove, Oregon.

This nerv plastic treated hard board called "treated" Forest Board utilizes selected Douglas fir fibers in the salne c()ntrolled process as the standard grade Forest floard. During the manufacturing process the plastic treatment is given to each fiber and after the board is formed an additional surface treatment is given.

The plastic treatment besides furnishing water resistance provides greater structural strength, wear resistance, and an added advantage is its resistance to soap or alkali, I\tiller stated. The new hard board resists chipping, denting and breaking, and like standard hard board is grainless so that it rn'ill not splinter. In the manufacturing process a harcl, glassy, smooth surface is produced that takes any type of finish by spraying, baking or brushing. It nails, glues, planes and rvorks as wood itself.

The plant is in full production in tl-re "treated" hard lroard in sizes of 4'x l', to 4'x 16'and thicknesses oI /8", ttru" and )4". The advantages of the plastic "treated" Forest Board, its water resistance, greater structural strength and rvorkability and variety of sizes make it suitable for numerous uses from shower walls to siding, Miller stated.

Samples of the new "treated" board and further information may be obtained from Stimson Lumber Company, Forest Grove, Oregon, the national distributors for Forest Hard Board.

Cfay Brown & Company Starts New Mill at Fortun€r Calif.

The latest sawmill operation of importance to start cutting lumber in California, is the Swedish gang sawmill just completed by Clay Brown & Company, at Fortuna, Humboldt County, California. The mill made its first run late in January, operating on an eight hour shift. It is expected that within a few months a second shift will be added. The single shift output of the new mill is about 75,000 feet daily, and the plant employs about fifty men all told.

The new plant is located on a forty-acre site just a mile and one half south of the center of the town of Fortuna. Work started last August on the clearing of the site, so no time has been lost in getting this excellent mill built and in operation. Actual construction of the plant was in the hands of Industrial Engineers & Contractors Inc., of Tacoma, Washington, and most of the machinery and equipment came from the Mill Engineering & Supply Cornpany, of Seattle, which latter ,concern has pioneered the Swedish type gangsaw mill throughout the United States.

Other suppliers of machinery and equipment for the mill were the Brizard-Matthews Machinery Company, and the Eureka Boiler Works, both of Eureka, California.

The plant consists of an l8-acre log pond with special ramp for unloading logs, the sawmill proper equipped with a big Swedish gang and a regulation edger and trimmer, a modernly equipped planing mill capable of handling the entire double shift output of the sawmill, and a temporary storage yard for lumber awaiting shipment. The Swedish gang can handle logs up to 33 inches in thickness. The logs come into the mill on a regulation log deck, and on leaving the mill the lumber goes through the planing mill, and is then shipped green to market. No seasoning will be done

' at this plant. There is a big and modern refuse burner adjacent to the sawmill proper.

The mill cuts Fir timber, and the entire product will be marketed through the Los Angeles office of Clay Brown & Company, located at 5670 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles 36, phone WEbster 34405.

The Los Angeles office is in charge of Clarence Hill, executive vice president of the company. The general offices of Clay Brown & Company are located in Portland, Oregon, where Mr. Brown, president and high mogul of the company, makes his headquarters. C. W. Booth, of Portland, is secretary-treasurer.

Veneer Plcnt Rebuilds

The Redding Veneer and Box Company plant, rvhich was destroyed in a $150,000 fire last July, is being rebuilt, and will be in operatiorl very soon.

Lodi Dealer To Expcrnd

John Krause, lumber and building material dealer and home builder of Lodi, Calif., has announced that he will extend his business by adding architectural work, home financing, building supervision, and estimating building costs to his services. He has already built more than .50 homes ranging from $3,000 to $30,000 in price. His two sons, Nealand and Darrel, assist him in the lumber yard.

Clqy Brown (Continued fronr Page 32)

Mr. Hill, who has recently visited the new mill, reports that the entire plant has been constructed and finished with the thought, unusual in sawmill construction, of making it attractive to the view of passers-by on the highway. Soft green paint over thc cntire plant has creatcd a vcry favorable apllearancc, and the plant itself looks neat and intercsting. The new nrill has a lorrg lifc ahead, according to Mr. Hill.

Clay Brown came West in 19?6 rvhcn thc Long-Bell Lumber Ciompany built its great plant at l,ongview, Washington. llc stayed at L<lngvierv for six years, and in 1932 became sales milnager for the M an<l M Wood Working Conrpany, at I'ortlan<!. In 1936 he joined the Smith Wood I'roducts Cionrpany, antl btrilt their plywood plant at Corluille. Iirorrr 1944 !> 194(t he was in Ncrv York City executive vicc presi<lcnt of U. S. l'lyrvtxr<l Corporation. He resigned to forrn his own comirarry an<l lluilt thc Humboldt l'lyu'rxrd plant at Arcata, California. In 1948 he sold that 1rr<rlrerty to the Rocldis organization, and in 1949 he returned to Clalifornia to builcl the nerv sau'nrill :tt Fortttna, which brings us up to date on Mr. Brown.

Clarence Flill came to California in 1945 and built the Arcata plywood mill for Clay Brou'n & Company, and was resident manager of that plant until it was sold to Roddis, when he moved to Los Angeles to take over the Brown office where he is now locatecl. He rvas also a Long-Beii man formerly, and has been 25 years in the lumber business.

Ncrtion's Newspcpers Will Receive New Series oI Forestry Ads

Provincicl

The world is small-we need not go Far to learn all there is to knowWe may spend all our lives in one small town, And find a 8eer, and meet a clown; We may dine with a saint, and walk with a cad, A Don Juan, and a GalahadTouch elbows with Merlin, and Cain, and Lear, While Jesus and Judas live very near.

-Ethel Arnold Tildcn.

Her Dimensions

An Arkansas woman wrote to a dentist in far-away St. Louis, asking for a set of false teeth. She wrote: "My mouth is three inches acrost, five-eighths through the jowl. Some hummocky on the aidge, shaped suthin like a hossshoe, toe forard. If you want me to be more pertickler I'll have to come up thar."

Trees And Knees

I think that I will never see, A joint as lovely as a knee; Poems have lines so pure and simple, But lovely knees can have a dimple.

A Motorist's Prcyer

"Teach us to drive through life without skidding into other people's business. Preserve our brake linings so that we may stop before we go too far. Help us to hear the knocks in our own motors and close our ears to the clashing in other people's gears. Keep alcohol in our radiators and out of our stomachs. Absolve us from the mania of trying to pass the other fellow on the narrow road. Open our eyes to the traffic signs, and keep our feet on the brakes."

Intolercnce

This little Globe, wrote Voltaire, which is but a mere speck, travels through space with its fellows, lost in immensity. Man, a creature about five feet tall, is certainly a tiny thing as compared with the universe. Yet one of these imperceptible beings declares to his neighbor: "Flearken unto me. The God of all these worlds speaks with my voice. There are billions of us wee ants upon this earth, but only my ant hole is precious in God's sight. All others are eternally damned by Him. Mine alone is blessed."

Becuty

Beauty does not lie in the face. It lies in the harmony between man and his industry. Beauty is expression. When I paint a mother, I try to render her beautiful by the mere look she gives her child.-Millet.

Speed

CuEtomer: "Are you sure this milk is fresh?"

Milkman: "Lady, half an hour ago, that was grass."

Mcke This A Dcy

Make this a day. There is no gain In brooding over days to come; The message of today is plain, The future lips are ever dumb. The work of yesterday is goneFor good or ill, let come what may; But now we face another dawnMake this a day !

Though yesterday we failed to see The urging hand and earnest face That men call Opportunity; We failed to know the time or place For some great deed, what need to fret ? The dawn comes up a silver grey And golden moments must be metMake this a day !

The day is come; the time is now; No better hour was gvsl hglgWho waits upon the when and how, Remains forever in the rear. Though yesterday was wasted stuff, Your feet may yet seek out the way, Tomorrow is no,t soon enoughMake this a dav !

Explcrnation

She-Before we start on this ride, I want you to understand that I don't neck."

fls-"!og'1e wrong there, my dear."

She-"About not necking?"

f{s-"}r[e. About starting on this ride."

Fecrring The Worst

A certain church deacon was considered so important that when he was very ill the church posted bulletins outside the church door, telling about his condition. On the final day of his illness, the bulletins fead:

"One o'clock, Deacon Jones very low."

"Two o'clock. Deacon Jones sinking fast."

"Three o'clock. Deacon Jones has gone to glory."

A passing wag read the bulletins, and added:

"Seven o'clock. Great excitement in heaven. Deacon Jones not yet arrived. The worst is feared."

Proccrc Rcproduccc Grain Of Naturcl Wood

A new and exclusive l)rocess u'hich reprodttces thc natrlral grain of I'orr<lcros:r l'irrc on Itrespinc llanels-uscd in <loors an<l otlrer wooclwork-is annourrcccl by Curtis Companies lncorporatcd, Clinton, Iowa.

Curtis Itrespine, nrade of firrely divided rvood, is in itsclf exceptionally resistant to'rvarping, shrinking and srvelling, manufacturers' test have shorvn. It also is resistant to heavy. inrpact blou's, rvill not nrar, dent or scratch readily, and provides an ideal l;ond for paint, stain, or any desired finish.

'fhe nerv grain figure heightens the allpeal of I)respine, the makers say, because it adds exceptional beauty where natural finish doors are preferred. The grain is an exact reproduction of the natural grain of I'onderosa Pine. The surface of the I'respine panels m3y be lightly sanded before finishing, if necessary. Prespine can be painted, stained, shellacked, waxed, lacrluered, varnished, enameled, and the finishing can be done either by skilled or semi-skilled labor. lJecause of the nature of Prespine, there can be no grain raising rvith consecluent checking or l>listering of the finish.

Curtis tests shorv that tl-re grain finish is fadeproof and lightproof. When finished, it withstands rain, snow, excessive humidity or sharp changes in temperature. The finished panels can easily be cleaned or rvashed, and Prespine door panels can be replaced as easily as ordinary door panels.

Prespine is available in practically all Curtis flat panel door models, including interior, exterior and garage designs. Ilxterior Prespine doors are treated rvith toxic water repellent solutions to resist stain, termites and decay.

"l)<xrrs rvith l'respine pancls have met with wide popular atcceptancc," Curtis officials statcd, "and the ncrv and exclusivc graining feature rvill add still greater pulllic appeal," it is fclt.

Curtis first intr<lcluced their new I'respine Prodtlct in July, 1948, an<l thc pro<lttct rvith thc naturitl rvclocl grain startc<l moving fr<tm Curtis plants in late 1949.

Appeal Board for Forart Urcrr

listablishrnent of a National Forest Advisory lloard of Appeals in the l)epartment of Agricultttre is reported by Perry A. Thompson, U. S. regional forester at San Francist-r.

-fhe board, estaltlishctl by an ortler of Secrctary of Agriculture Charles 1". Ilrannatr, is to advise thc Sccrctary on any appeals to him fronr <lecisions of thc Chicf t'f the l"orest Service involving any public use of the National l'orests and othcr lands under adnrinistration or contr<ll of the Forest Service. 'l'lre lirard will consist of live cntployees <lf the I)epartment of Agriculture selected from agencies vr'ithin the l)ellartment otlter than the Forest Service. Membership of the nerv board will be announced later.

"Upon receipt of a written request to the Secretary frorll the appellant," thc order statcd' "the Secretary shall refer the aplleal to the board before which the apllellant may appear if he so tlesires an<l the llrlard shall ctlrrsi<ler the appeal on its merits and fttrnish its advice and recommendations to the Secrctary."

Under existing rcgttlations, users of National Forest l:rnds, sttch as grazing llermittees, pttrchasers of tinrber, ancl ht>lders of othcr permits, n.ray allpeal frclm a<lministrative decisions of the Forest Service to the Secretary of Agriculture. When an appeal conles to him, Secretary llrannan sai<I, it h:rs alrvays l;een the practice to call upon menrbers of the Secret:rry's staff to make an objective study of the case prior to his personal consideration antl decision. A number of grazing pernlittees, have, hou'ever, expressed a desire for a more formal arrangement.

The nerv National Forest Advisory Board of Appeals shoulcl not be confused with the National Forest lJoard of Revierv established in 1948. The Board of ltevierv is composed of 1>rivate citizens. Its purpose is t<l aclvise the Secretary on qttestions of general policy and the solution of majrlr problems arising in connection with adnrinistration of the National Forests.
