MRS. J. C. DEJARNETTE (Mother Evelyn)

For many years the names "Mother and Dad Dejamette" have been inspirations to Montana foresters. When Dad was living, the two of them devoted much of their time, generously and willingly, to making life more pleasant for those around them, and particularly the foresters. Traditional Spring and Fall Hikes owe their being to the thoughtfulness and work of Dad and Mother Evelyn. Since Dad passed on to the "land of taller and greener trees," Mother Evelyn has carried on for both of them, offering a helping hand wherever and whenever needed. Her pleasant smile and her constant willingness to be of service have endeared her in the hearts of all Montana foresters. To a true forester—to a loyal Forestry Club member —to Mother Evelyn—we proudly dedicate this 1949 issue of the FORESTRY KAIMIN. J'OASULVCU uL

With this, the 1949 issue of the Kaimin, the Forestry Club completes an­ other year of activities. The Club members have all worked hard and earnest­ ly throughout the year, and have once again achieved an enviable record on the campus.

Because of the printing deadline we are not able to include Spring quarter activities for 1949. This promises to be a very active one with the initiation of the Forestry School Banquet, the practical course, and the "Bar Nothing" Varie­ ty show.

It is with great pleasure that we present this issue to you. We hope that you will like the way in which we have attempted to portray, pictorially and with the written word, the host of activities of this past year.

The second of the annual alumni scholarship awards, consisting of twenty-five dollars and a certif­ icate of excellence was presented to Jim Mueller. He was chosen as the outstanding junior in the School of Forestry during the academic year 1947-48 in token of his high scholarship, loyalty to school af­ fairs and genuine interest in the profession. The selection committee was composed of alumni, fac­ ulty, and members of the senior class. The award has been established as a memorial to those of the forestry school, students and alumni, who fell in World War II and has been financed through donations from the alumni.

Ball proceeds and the interest from old loans have increased the capital to over seven thousand five hundred dollars. The Loan Fund was created by the Forestry Club way back in 1930, when the proceeds of the Foresters' Ball came out in a good portion of the black. Since that time the Loan Fund has been used to the extent of about four hun­ dred sixty separate loans.

The timber management men of the 1948 forestry senior class spent six very worthwhile weeks of the spring quarter seeing and working with the practical aspects of forest management and indus­ try. The trip covered items varying from planting tree seedlings in the field to the observance of the m anufacture of paper from pulp bolts. The first few days of the trip were spent, under the direction of Professor Spaulding, at the wood preservation plant at Somers. The next few days were spent measuring game sample plots, with the grazers, along the Fisher River drainage. After these preliminary stops, we proceeded on up to War- land, Montana, where we spent four exceptional weeks working on the J. Neils Lumber Com­ pany Operation under the supervision of Professors Bruns and Walbridge and a number of very competent company men. During our stay at Warland, we were each given an oppor­ tunity to mark, scale and cruise timber, classify stands, locate timber access roads, and to go through several mills including the J. Neils Mill at Libby.

On completing our work scheduled at Warland, we once again turned to the "Old Reliable Chevy Truck" which was to take us on a tour of points of interest throughout Idaho and East­ ern Washington. Due to high water flooding the roads, we were compelled to by pass a few important points which Dean Davis had planned for us to see. A few highlights of the trip were the visits to: the Priest River and Deception Creek Forest Experiment Stations, where a great deal was learned regarding the management of the white pine stands; the Inland Paper Company of Spokane, the Forest Service Warehouse in Spokane, and the Potlatch Mill in Lewiston, Idaho. At Lewiston the elements were too much for us so we turned back toward Missoula, travel worn but wiser.

A great deal of credit is due all of the professors that planned our trip and a lot of thanks is in order for the J. Neils Com­ pany for opening up an opportunity for the Montana Foresters to get on the job experience on an ideal operation.

To show in practice what the books describe, Professor Melvin S. Morris took his 1948 range class on a grand tour of the Southwest during the month of May. His student-observers for the 4,000 mile trip were Wes Ferguson, Fred Haller, Dick McElfresh, Neal Nelson, Don Rodgers, John Russiff, Morton Wood, Bill Lockhart and Joe Saltzman. With a short breather after the timber section of the spring camp at Warland, we headed south on May second through the western range states to observe, first hand, theproblems of the range industry, practical range administration methods, and the progress of range research. The first stop was at the Dubois Sheep Experiment Station where Dr. Nordby and others showed what can be done along the lines of improving range breeds of sheep and range man­ agement.

The Desert Station, out west of Beaver in Utah, was a major stop where Mr. Hutchings briefed us on winter range, its problems and management. After being shown over the Beaver deer herd area by Mr. Christenson we headed into Zion National Park, only slowed down by a few reseeded areas and mile after mile of strange new plants. The "grass gremlins" next hit Arizona and the Kaibab Plateau, the scene of one of the serious deer population problems in the West. A look at Grand Canyon from the North Rim, and a trip through the Navajo Reservation provided a chance to see the Navajo in their own environment. At Grand Can­ yon "Mel" Morris surprised the "tourists" with a two hour quiz. A common feature of the trip was the 'whatzit' stops made every time Mr. Mor­ ris spotted a new plant. On the Papago Indian Reservation, where the results of Dr. Adams' airplane reseeding were looked over, our host was Joe Wagner ('35). There, while trying to collect some curious gourds, Mort Wood succeeded in collecting the most unpopu­ lar souvenir of the trip, a rattlesnake bite. Heading northward with no major stops, we took the road that led through Ely and Craters of the Moon back to Mis­ soula.

We had a ball again this year! And as usual it was a dandy. Probably no chief push in history encountered as many difficulties as did Euel Davis in preparation for the 32nd An­ nual Ball. First it was the lack of transportation and then old man winter came along with his icy blasts and snow making inaccessable the cut­ ting areas. Ton Spaulding showed that he was a true forester and accomplished the seeming­ ly impossible by getting the road plowed out. We don't know how he did it, but he did!

This generation of informed loggers developed the arch - winch - tractor teams to snake out selectively cut trees from sustained yield forests.

50 Since 1895 the J. Neils Lumber Company has been striving for better methods of logging and manu­ facture .

Good logging today means selective logging— ac­ celerating the growth of young trees while har­ vesting mature trees, insuring a supply of timber for future generations and a permanent economy for mill towns, protecting wildlife, providing good access roads and preserving watersheds for power and recreation.

Good manufacturing means producing a better prod­ uct while reducing waste to a minimum by convert­ ing it to crates, boxes, fuel, etc., and chemical treatment of forest products for longer life.

For more than half a century the J. Neils Lumber Company has lead in developing and applying these precepts which today are synonymous with good log­ ging and lumber manufacturing practice.
