When lightning strikes a tree,
its heat turns moisture in the

than five times as many as result
from lightning.

0 Again
Point values for utility grade
beef and utility grade lamb cuts
are reduced to zero, and points
for pork loins, pork hams and
canned fish are restored, effec-
tive August 13.
Big Forest Value
Gains Predicted
The chief of the U. S. forest
service believes the postwar
Northwest will garner vastly ex-
panded lumber profits without
cutting a single additional stick
of timber.
“Expansion of the lumber in-
dustry will not necessitate cut-
ting larger numbers of trees,”
Lyle F. Vlgatts, Washington, DC,
‘told interviewers. “It will be
achieved by increasing the value
of the product.“
He cited alcohol—from-wood
waste and the new process of
converting soft wood into hard-
wood as examples of the predicted
increase in timber values.

Point values of cheeses, farm
or country butter and process
butter are increased. Ration value
of creamery butter is unchanged
at 16 points.
Point values announced today
continue through Saturday, Sep-
tember 2nd.
New Chart
The new point charts contain
no new changes for processed
foods, but include changes an-
nounced, July 30 when points
were restored to corn, and grape
jam, tomato preserves and tomato
marmalades were reduced to
zero.
Another red stamp—D5—worth
10 points became valid August 13,
good indefinitely.
Points for better grades of beef
steaks and beef roasts and for
better grades of lamb steaks and
lamb roasts—that is, “commer-
cial,” “good” and “choice” grades
—continue at their present level
because many areas are in short
supply. Cuts of beef and lamb
now at zero remain unchanged.
New point values for pork
loin cuts will range from four
per pound for end cuts to eight
for center cuts with the whole
loin at five points.
Hams, including smoked, will be
five points per pound with the
shank end at two points and
slices at nine points per pound.
Ready-to-eat hams are two points
per pound higher in value.

gional FIB office are cautioned
to be prompt in keeping their
appointments and to bring with
them all evidence listed in the re-
quest, including their application
number and the soldier‘s Army
serial number. Failure to keep'
such an appointment may result
in the discontinuance of the fam-
ily allowance, it was stated.
Dependents whose claims are
not under investigation, and who
, have not received appointment re-
quests, may call at the above ad—,
dress on official business relating
to their family allowances.
Those‘ who expect to confer
, with the ODB officer are advised
to bring with them their proof
of earnings, if any, and all other
available financial data bearing
on their income or living expense.
Danger of Forest
Fires is Great
Faced with the driest summer
in 54 years, state foresters are
concerned over the immediate
danger that exists in all forest
areas. Figures compiled in the
office of T. S. Goodyear show
that to the first day of August
854 forest fires have been re-
corded. This is 200 more fires
than were recorded at the same
date last year.
“Many of these fires are the
result of carelessness on the part
of berry pickers,” according to
T. S. Goodyear, state forester.
“‘Such fires not only destroy a
most critical war mate 'al but
also require many valuab e man-
hours to control. The nation can
ill afford to lose timber or waste
manpower. Berry picker fires
must either be immediately elim-
in'iited or berry picking in the for-
s s of Washington will be pro-
hibited for the balance of the
fire season.
When "01d Pete,” 202~feet tall
Douglas fir, was cut, 118 feet of
the giant tree crumbled into dust.
“Old Pete” had been left stand-
ing too long, and trees must be
harvested when mature.

DRY WEATHER AND WATER SHORTAGE
With only a trace of rainfall during July and another
slight fall around Shelton last Sunday we are reminded that i
there hasbeen little of real old summertime yet and this
Sis mid-August with school days near at hand. .
I There was no snow in this vicinity last winter and
there was a shortage in.the mountains, while the spring
{rains were below normal;
tinder-like.
all of which is a reminder that
this section is unusually dry and the countryside and woods
. There is also another reminder in the low streams and
ithe drying wells, that the water level in this section is
getting lower each year; due in part to the cutting of the
timber coverage and faster run-off, which may or may not
be recovered by the regrowth of young timber in the water
sheds.
But while there have been no serious timber fires in
‘this section so far this dry season there is danger ahead
until the fall rains come, probably not until October, and
trekkers in the woods and those who drive along the high-
ways are self-appointed guardians of our future timber
heritage.

CPL. ELMER R. ARNDT
COMPLETES SECOND YEAR.
15th AAF in Italy—Cpl. Elmer
R. Arndt, 120 E. Cedar St., com-
pleted two years of overseas duty
with his Flying Fortress unit on
August 6th, thus becoming one
-of the real veterans of the war
in the European and Mediterran-
ean theatres.
His Fortress group was activ-
ated at .Geiger Field, Wash,
shortly after Pearl Harbor, rush-
ed through training and sent ov-
erseas to England on August 6.
There, they participated in the
first all-American air attacks
against Germany and. German
held territory.
With the African invasion, the
group moved south to play a key
part in that campaign. Despite
lthe most trying of living condi-
tions and almost constant enemy
’attacks the men of the unit did
outstanding work.
Moving to an Italian base early
in December of 1943, the unit
took part in the first coordinated
raids against central Germany
from Italy and Englantt
Men of the group have twice
received distinguished unit cita-
tions, presented during a recent
ceremony by Maj. Gen. Nathan
F. Twining, commanding general
of the 15th Army Air Force. One
‘of these was given.for a brilliant
and daring attack which destroy-
ed an enemy ammunition convoy
during the closing stages of the
Tunisian campaign; the other for
the- first coordinated attack of
the Eighth and 15th Air Forces
against Regensburg, Germany.
With better than 300 missions
to its credit, the group is prob-
ably best known for leading the
first raid on Rome and the sink-
ing of the Italian heavy cruiser
Trieste.
PINCKNEYS RECEIVE
LETTER ABOUT SON
Mr. and Mrs. John Pinckney

Captain aboard the ship on which
their son Bob is serving. The let-

“Having your son aboard my

to the officers as well as the en-
listed men of the crew. They are
lall mighty fine, energetic and co-
loperative group of fellows, who
‘work in the closest of harmony
withus and each other.
“As far as your son is concern-
ed, let me congratulate you in
having a most energetic son
whose initiative knows no bounds.
He is, without a doubt, the best
hand we have and the quality of
his work is of a superior rating.
“I rather thought you would
enjoy hearing from his Skipper
as to his welfare. He seems to be
in excellent health and I do know
he is happy to be back on a boat
again, particularly with this
group. We all like your son im-
mensely and I assure you that I
shall do everythihg in my power
to k_eep him happy, help him in
his advancement and take the
best care of him possible. I might
add, that when he is eligible for
his next rate, he will be on the
recommended list and the first.

you shall have your son with
you for Chritsmas—I sincerely
