NATIONAL FOREST TIMBER OFFERED FOR SALE 52,000,000 IN RAINIER RESERVE IN WASHINGTON OPENED TO PURCHASERS MINIMUM PRICE RANGES FROM 50 CENTS TO $1.50 PER THOUSAND FEET The Forest Service has just begun to advertise the 12th large lot of National Forest timber offered for sale within the past nine months. Altogether it has advertised since July 1, 1911, the beginning of the present fiscal year, about 2,500,000,000 feet, and has closed contracts for the sale of 1,700,000,000 feet. The latest advertised sale is of approximately 52,000,000 feet of saw timber in the Rainier National Forest, about 35 miles from Tacoma. In offering National Forest timber for sale the Government first makes an estimate of the quantity of timber on an area which would naturally form a single logging unit, and which offers attractive opportunities for the lumberman. The probable cost of logging and manufacturing by a capable lumberman is then estimated. On the basis of these estimates combined with the figures for market values and freight charges the timber is appraised and then advertised for sale, with the appraised value as a minimum price. The minimum prices set for the Rainier timber vary from 50 cents to $1.50 per thousand feet, according to... offers attractive opportunities for the lumberman. The probable cost of logging and manufacturing by a capable lumberman is then estimated. On the basis of these estimates combined with the figures for market values and freight charges the timber is appraised and then advertised for sale, with the appraised value as a minimum price. The minimum prices set for the Rainier timber vary from 50 cents to $1.50 per thousand feet, according to the kind of timber. These are stumpage prices—that is, the purchaser buys the trees on the stump and does all the logging, but pays according to the board foot measure of the logs. The Government aims to allow the manufacturer a liberal profit on the basis that lumbering involves a good deal of business risk, and the minimum stumpage prices are fixed accordingly. Often, however, competitive bids raise the price above the advertised minimum. One of the provisions of the contract which the successful bidder for the Rainier timber will enter into will be that if market prices advance materially the Government's chief forester may, after the sale has run three years, require a reasonable readjustment of the stumpage prices up to an added 50 cents per thousand. The object of this stipulation is to prevent loss to the Government—that is, to the public—and an undue profit to the purchaser through long-term contracts entered into on a rising market. Provision against such speculative profits is regarded as especially necessary in view of the long-term sales now sometimes made to get purchasers for large bodies of inaccessible timber. For the Rainier sale the cutting period allowed is only five years, since the quantity of timber involved—approximately 52,000,000 board feet—does not call for an extended operation. One National Forest sale made this year was for 800,000,000 board feet and the purchasers were allowed a cutting period of 21 years besides a preliminary two years in which to build a railroad. Usually purchasers must begin operating the year of purchase and cut a stipulated amount each year. The latter provision is simply an example of a fundamental principle that is applied in all National Forest timber sales. The primary object is described as being not profit for the Government but benefit to the public. Nowhere is the policy a strictly commercial one. The conditions of cutting are carefully prescribed from the standpoint of present as well as future the lecture room. A list of the places offering board and room or either alone is kept on file in the office of the Recorder of the Faculties, and every possible assistance will be given to strangers in their search for suitable boarding places. Inquiries should be addressed to the Dean of the Summer Session, California Hall, Berkeley. PRESBYTERIAN NOTES The cantata given by the Presbyterian choir Monday evening of last week was largely and enthusiastically attended. Many who were unable to attend are anxious to hear it and have asked to have it repeated. This will be done next Sunday evening beginning at 7:30. Come early to get a choice seat. No admission will be charged but an offering will be taken. In the morning Rev. A. B. Markle will preach. Bible school at 9:45. This is your invitation. PASMORE TRIO IN CONCERT TONIGHT Last of High School Entertainments For Season Will Be Given in Auditorium The Pasmores, designated by many of this country's foremost critics as "America's best trio," will be heard in concert tonight at the high school auditorium in the last of the season's entertainments of the high school lyceum course. The coming of this famous organization to this city is, undoubtedly, the musical event of many seasons. The unusual interest being shown in this evening's recital not only by music lovers but by those who rarely attend musicals, proves this assertion. Local people have read of the brilliant triumphs of the Pasmore Trio in Europe and the large cities of this country and are not slow to seize the opportunity which tonight's concert affords them for hearing the best to be had in the musical world. The Pasmores have announced they will play what is conceded to be their finest program. It is the one which they gave 14 times in Berlin two seasons ago and which won the glowing praise of the German critics. It is the one that has proven most popular upon the tour which they are this year making of the United States, Canada and Mexico. It is a program which appeals to all classes because it appeals to all tastes. Whether the auditor be a student of music or that concert-goer simulations of the United States and foreign countries exhibit is paramount and important work now in work will go forward able, for in addition to state participation is one of private or corporation that will amount to as much more, in number, than exhibits. IDAHO TIMBER OFFERED Department of Agriculture Bids For 750 Miles The Department of Agriculture began advertising two timber which aggregated feet on the Payette River Boise and Payette National Idaho.

The primary object is described as being not profit for the Government but benefit to the public. Nowhere is the policy a strictly commercial one. The conditions of cutting are carefully prescribed from the standpoint of present as well as future needs. The highest bid for the contract may be rejected and is rejected if it appears that to give the bidder the contract would tend to facilitate timber monopoly and so subject the consumer to a hardship. In other words, the Government foresters consider that they should not only make the forests grow as fast as possible but also make them as useful as possible to the public. PRESENCE OF MIND A famous animal painter says that when he was a boy he once witnessed a fight between two dogs, one of which belonged to an Irishman who was a retired prizefighter. The Irishman's dog was badly beaten and the fact was a source of deep chagrin to the owner. He was very jealous of the dog's record, but as only he and the painter had seen the fight, he asked the latter in a decisively significant way, which of the dogs won. "Why," was the reply, "your dog won of course. He was underneath the other dog, but he was chewing the life out of the cur all the time." "That's roight," said the Irishman, "you've paved your loife." The Pasmores have announced they will play what is conceded to be their finest program. It is the one which they gave 14 times in Berlin two seasons ago and which won the glowing praise of the German critics. It is the one that has proven most popular upon the tour which they are this year making of the United States, Canada and Mexico. It is a program which appeals to all classes because it appeals to all tastes. Whether the auditor be a student of music or that concert-goer who attends recitals solely for the purpose of enjoying the beautiful in melody and rhythm, he will have his desire satisfied at tonight's recital. So much has been written and said about the Pasmores that it is not necessary to give the history of their standing among the great artists of the day. As a trio they do ensemble work which is unsurpassed. As soloists they offer compositions for the violin, 'cello and piano that place them in the top-most rank. P. E. DOUBLE TRACKED The Board of Supervisors has received a request from the Pacific Electric for the passage of a resolution granting the Pacific Electric permission to make fills at a number of street crossings between Santa Ana and Stanton. The communication states that the P. E. is anxious to complete the double track between those points, and asks that the resolution be passed as soon as possible so that the matter can be taken up with the State Railroad Commission and permission for commencing the work be secured.

SAN DIEGO FAIR GETS MONEY APPROPRIATION SIX STATES AND TWO COUNTIES IN CALIFORNIA SET ASIDE FUNDS FOR FAIR MANY FOREIGN COUNTRIES ARRANGING FOR NOTABLE EXHIBITS AT THE SHOW Six states have made appropriation for the San Diego exposition amounting to $405,000 and two county organizations have appropriated a total of $300,000, with a right to increase this if necessary, to $400,000. Other states and governments have, through their legislative bodies, taken necessary action to appropriate a total of $2,330,000 more. In all of these the appropriation acts have passed either the upper or lower houses or have been brought to a point where they are practically assured. To meet these overtures and offers of exhibits, the exposition organization is bending every energy to be in position when the time comes to furnish the necessary information as to rules and regulations of the United States customs, railroad routes and rates, facilities for transportation, warehousing and multitudinous things that must be ready when the first commission comes here in May to start actual construction work and to arrange for assembling the exhibits. Rules and regulations of the Division of Works and of the Division of Exhibits have been made ready. Transportation problems, such as rates and terminal facilities, routes and connections are being worked out. TALK WITH P. E. OFFICIALS A conference was held between Paul Shoup and other officials of the Pacific Electric and officials of Santa Ana in that city on Friday afternoon. The meeting was a good deal in the nature of a get-together affair, each explaining its position on a number of matters in which the city is interested. The city representatives stated that they would like to have the Pacific Electric extend its tracks east on Fourth street to the city limits, as called for in the franchise, stop running steam cars on East Second street, give better connections on the Balboa line at Huntington Beach and two flyers daily on the Santa Ana line from Los Angeles. The Pacific Electric wants a franchise for a spur track on to the Southern Pacific at Santa Clara avenue and for a curve at the corner of Fourth and Main streets. No final action was taken by either party, but a clearer understanding was reached. SCHOOL BOARD MARKING PAPERS The county board of education is in session this week, engaged in looking over the examination papers from the county grades. The first examination of the year was on questions submitted by the school board. The next was on questions submitted by the teachers. The papers from the second examination are the ones now before the board. A third examination, with questions prepared by the board, will be given at the end of the term.

Transportation problems, such as rates and terminal facilities, routes and connections are being worked out by an experienced transportation man especially retained for that purpose. The Division of Concessions is signing contracts with some of the biggest professional concessionaires in the world and the Division of Exhibits is receiving applications from exhibitors from all over the world who are not concessionaires. The necessity for being ready to take care of the two dozen or more states and foreign countries that will exhibit is paramount and is the most important work now in progress. This work will go forward as fast as possible, for in addition to the official or state participation is a vast amount of private or corporation participation that will amount to as much and possibly more, in number, than the official exhibits. IDAHO TIMBER IS OFFERED FOR SALE Department of Agriculture Calls For Bids For 750 Million Feet The Department of Agriculture has begun advertising two large tracts of timber which aggregate 750 million feet on the Payette River within the Boise and Payette National Forests, Idaho. The District Forester at Ogden, Utah, will receive bids up to and including June 1, 1913, and for an additional month if intending purchasers wish more time to examine the timber before deciding on their bids. While the bids received through competition will determine the rate at which the timber will be sold, the department, as the result of a careful study, has placed a minimum price which will be considered on the timber, according to species and situation. These prices range from $2.50 a thousand feet for western yellow pine in the most accessible places, down to $1.00 for the least valuable and least accessible timber. The initial rates will be subject to readjustment in 1918 and in 1922. By such readjustment the stumpmage price may be modified twice.

These prices range from $2.50 a thousand feet for western yellow pine in the most accessible places, down to $1.00 for the least valuable and least accessible timber.

By such readjustment the stumpage price may be modified twice at four-year intervals during the 12 years which will be allowed for the removal of the timber. The department officials point out that, in sales of such a large quantity of timber, it is necessary to allow a long term contract because of the magnitude of operation and investment. The fact that many large sales have been made with readjustment clauses indicates, it is said, that timber operators find the method business-like and practicable. The timber to be cut lies on the watersheds of the south and middle forks of the Payette, and bids will be received for any or all of the timber on either fork. It is accessible to Southern Idaho, which is developing rapidly and in which the demand for timber will increase. A window full of rings, everyone solid gold. Sets are guaranteed to stay in.
