The fields they try to cultivate
are very rocky. They say they
have been taking rocks out of
these fields for hundreds of years,
yet it still doesn’t look as. if
they have accomplished anything.
Practically all the houses and
surrounding fences are of rock.
The farming here is quite a. bit
different from our country. It
is very seldom you see a team of
horses doing any plowing, and
it is surprising as everyone seems
to take great pride in owning a
nice horse and the horses are all
beautiful animals. Even the slow

Mr. and Mrs. A1 L. Hansen
were guests of the Kiwanis Club
and Mr. Hansen, who is Chief
Machinists Mate, U.S.N., with
more than 20 years of active ser-
vice and plenty of hot recent ex-
periences to show for his many
stripes and Cross of Honor, re-
told the story of the Pearl Har-
bor\attack with some more inti-
mate details which are even yet
more or less “off the record” and
await the full after—war story.
Mrs. Hazel Hansen is enjoying his
brief furlough in Shelton after
being separated from her hus-
band since shortly after Pearl
Harbor.
His more recent experiences
were on a destroyer, one of the
U.—S. fleet which battled the Japs
in the Aleutian waters in April,
and while his ship escaped with
minor hits its guns accounted for
two of the‘ enemy battleships in
long range firing.
Not Yet Public
The details of.this fight have
not yet appeared in print, but it
is apparently a major effort to
take over the Aleutians, and we
are hearing now of the wiping out
of the Japs on Attu Island and
of the constant bombarding of
Kiska, proving that the enemy is
well entrenched and will make a
desparate stand before being
wiped out of that part of the

Tall Concrete
Stack Building
At MCCleary
The Simpson Logging. Com-
pany is having built at its Mc-
Cleary plant a 230—foot con-
crete stack, the size of its taller
stack in Shelton, in connection
with the rebuilding of its steam
power plant at McCleary.
The stack is going up at the
rate of twenty feet a week, is
now up to 120 feet, and the
Simpson Company with the
Washington State Guard Re-
serve, offers prizes of $60 first,
$25 second and $15 third, in
bonds or stamps to the winner
who guesses the nearest to the
exact time of the completion,
with tickets sold in the derby
to help the purchase of uni-
forms for the Guard.
Fire Closures
Due to military necessity, fire
closures announced two weeks ago
are now in effect and are, being
,rigidly enforced, District Fire
Warden George Frisk warned Ma-
son county residents this week.
These closures must be observ-
ed Frisk stated, and added that
a close watch is being kept thru-
out the county for violations.
Frisk also stated that a highly
trained and equipped crew of fire
chasers is now stationed at cru—
cial spots in the county, five men
being at Allyn, 10 men at Matlock
and 10 men at Shelton.
Until serious fire weather de—
velops, these crews will be en-
gaged in mainteance of existing
forest roads, trails, lookouts and
telephone lines.
Maintenance will receive first
priority, and, if weather condi-
tions warrant, an extensive con-
struction program will follow.

Rayonier Machine
ShOp Gets Praise
Admiral Emery S. Lund, Chair-
man of the Maritime Commission,
in a letter addressed to Pacific
Pulp & Paper Industry, trade
magazine, praises the vital war
work done in the machine shops
of 26 affiliated pulp and paper
mills of the three Pacific Coast
states during the past year.
His letter, published in the an-
nual review number of the mag-
azine, said: “It is with full know-
ledge of the important part being
taken in the country’s war pro-
gram by the pulp and paper in-
dustry of the Pacific Coast that
we of the Maritime Commission
salute it.”
He praised the mills for “ra-
pidly converting their shops” to
producing and finishing vital ma-
chinery parts for Liberty ships,
tankers, as well as for aircraft
carriers, destroyers and other
fighting ships and for “maintain-
ing a flow of much-needed pro-
ducts.”
“Without the zeal and industry
displayed by these workers,” Ad-
miral Land said, “the record-
breaking number of ships now be-
ing launched from our yards . . .
would not be possible.”
Shelton Area
Survey Told
Five potential sites for new in-
dustrial enterprises are disclosed
in a survey of the Shelton area
made public yesterday by Paul
J. Raver, Bonneville Power ad-
ministrator. The survey is the
ninth of a series being prepared
by the administration’s market
development section to supply in-
formation needed for the econom-
ical development of new industries
in the Pacific Northwest, Raver
explained and was published in the
Seattle papers.
.The five sites mapped range in
Size from to 165 acres. Raver
said many additional areas are
available, both on tidewater and
inland.
The survey covers geography,
population, resources, local indus-
tries, transportation, power and
labor in the area, which is de-
scribed as one of the most im-
portant logging communities in
the Puget Sound district. It is
pointed out that the city is close
to critical mineral depostis ,now
being developed on the Olympic
peninsula.

Cascara Bill
Will Protect
Crop Future
Of special interest to Cascara
bark peelers in Senate Bill No.
164 enacted at the 28th regular
session of the State Legislature
and containing provisions regulat-
ing the manner in which Cascara
may be taken from the forests.
The present high price of Cas-
cara bark has caused a destruc-
tive peeling of the bark in a
manner which will result in the
virtual extinction of the Cascara
tree, and the vanishing of an in-
dustry which, with reasonable
care, may come to be a perma-
nent one.
District Fire Warden George
Frisk pointed out yesterday that
if trees are properly out they will
send up many new shoots, cheat-t
ing an increase in the amount of
Cascara bark available. Thus na-
ture will tend to build up the
source of the bark if not llam-
pered.
Provisions Printed
Provisions of the Cascara bill
are reprinted here for the infor-
mation of those engaged in the
business.
Section 1. It shall be unlawful
for any person, firm or corpora-
tion to cut, peel, sell, snip or
otherwise dispose of any cascara
bark unless the person, firm or
corporation cutting the same shall
Secure a written permit from the
legal owner of the land upon
which such cascara bark is cut

Ready Soon
For ‘A’ Books
Plans to renew motorists “A”
gasoline coupon books by mail
under the streamlined renewal
plan recently announced by the
OPA beginning June 22 have been
completed by the Mason County
War Price and Rationing Board,
Henry Newmark, chairman, an-
nounced today.
He coupled this announcement
with a request that car owners
file their applications as soon as
possible so that the Board may
process them and mail out all
new books before the present “A”
rations expire July 21.
The mail renewal plan, which
also includes renewals of the basic
“D” motorcycle rations, eliminates
the school house registration that
was necessary when basic rations
were issued last autumn. To get
his new “A” or “D” books a car
and motorcycle owner needs take
only the following simple steps:
1. Pick up an application form
at service stations or at the Ra-
tion Board office. The forms will
be available at these places begin-
ning June 22.
Fill Out Form
2. Fill out the form and mai
it to the War Price and Rationin;
Board together with (a) the bacl
cover of the present “A” or “D‘
book (properly filled out), and
(b) the current tire inspection re-
cord showing that proper inspec-
tions have been made.
“With volunteer help now being
enlisted the Board will begin pro-
cessing the applications as soon as
they start coming in,” Mr. New—
mark said. “New ration books will
be mailed back as soon as they
are ready. Every effort will be
made to have new books in the
hands of all car and motorcycle
owners by July 21, when their
present books expire. But this
can be assured only if motorists
and motorcycle owners cooperate
by getting their application forms
as soon as possible and filing
them promptly."
The new application forms, like
those used last year, will have a
tire inspection record attached,
Mrs. Newmark pointed out. In
filling out the form, applicants

Garden Meetings ,
Are Scheduled
Insect pests are a bugaboo for
most victory gardeners. This mat-
ter of pest control is not diffi-
cult if one understands the con-
trol measures states County Agent
Okerstrom. To put dust on the
foliage of the plants to control
root maggot is entirely useless
and is a waste of insecticides.
In order to explain insect con-
trol problems to home gardeners
two local meetings have been ar-
ranged.
The first meeting will be held
Friday afternoon, June 11, at 2
p. m. at the Fred Diehl home on
Harvard St. The second meeting
will be Monday, June 14th, 2 p. m.
at the Runacres gardens near
the highway and just across the
street from the George Drake
residence.
Everyone who has insect prob-
lems is invited to attend one of
these meetings.
WPB Lifts Ban On
Cuffs For Trousers
WPB listed all restrictions on
the finishing of men’s and boys'
wool trousers in effect permitting
sale of trousers either with or
without simulated cuffs. Limita- '
tions on trouser lengths continue
unchanged, making full cuffs the
exception rather than the rule.
The new order allows average
turn-up of only three inches of
material—enough for a simulated
cuff, but that is all.
