Pulpwood Industry
Replants $500 Acres

For the second consecutive

The acreage planted is estimated
on the basis of setting out l,OOO
trees per acre.
The industry purchased 53-l--
million trees from the state Tor

Nearly 1912 million of these
trees were planted on lands own

The remaining Is million were

trees over the quantity donated
by the industry last year. or the
so contributed the producers &C,
counted for about 3-4 OF million
trees or about half the total they
purchased and grew.
The tree planting program OF
the pulpwood industry is only
one of of it's activities directed
toward growing more trees in

Co-ops Stimulate
Competition, Says
Top Union Leader

STOCKHOLM - "The COMPETE
tive element in economic life is a
stimulating factor" declared Mr..
Albin Johansson, head of SWeden's
Cooperative Union. in an address
to the Stockholm Advertising As
ISOLATION recently. "The Coop
erative Union can't be bought up
by any big concern" said Mr.. DO
hanson. land thereby it assures
competition. We force others to
try beating u.s."
Economically, we Swedes as
we'll as others are now Just as
backward as We were 100 years
ago. We erect wall around our
different areas and are ourselves
enough. Nationalistic sentiment
prevents us from expanding our
field of activity. I appeal to you
to cooperate in the attainment of
free inter- candinavian trade -
even free inter- European trade.
Competition will then be keener,
enabling us to take advantage of
each others strength in different
fields concluded Mr.. Johansson.
The Swedish Cooperative Union
this summer celebrated its 50th
anniversary with a large exhibit
ton in Stockholm and a series of
festivities throughout the country.

the desolate country. Thus, when
not very far from the settlement
of Nulato, Seppala was met
by a relay dog team driver telling
him that he had the serum. Sep
pala turned around, took the Sc
rum and headed his dog team to-
ward Nome and after another long
ride the remainder of the relay
team took over, when the remain
ing stretch to Nome was only
about one-seventh of the distance
Seppala had already travelled. The
credit for the feat, for a short
time at least, went to another
Norwegian who deliberately side
tracked a waiting relay driver for
the final stretch, to receive the
acclaim of Nome's populace.
Dog Belto Was Canonized
But later the Serum drive to
Nome became associated with the
name of Seppala and he was duly
awarded medal for his feat by
the famous Norwegian explorer
Roald Asmundsen in Madison
Square Garden in New York.
The king of all animals in Alas
ka is the dog and it was only
natural that dog should be can
onized for heroic achievement in
connection with the serum drive
The man who drove the serum
into Nome used a number of Sep
palas dogs, which the latter had
left behind, and one of them, Bal
to, though perhaps not the most
deserving, was by cflance named
that great dog-hero. BALTIC made
the headlines in papers through
out America and a statue of him
was erected in Central Park, New
York.

/ Newport Tower, the Kensington
Stone, dated 1862 and found in
Minnesota, and the Morse i'm
plements found at Ontario, Canada
dating back to the 10th century
were in all probabilities genuine.
DR.. Leach also believes that the
Kensington Stone, which has been
termed as possibly the greatest
archaeological discovery in the
United States, is more likely to
be authentic.
Washington Man is Expert on
Runestones
During his stay here DR.. Leach
also expressed great interest in
the work carried on privately by
Olaf Strandwold, formerly super
intendent of schools in Prosser,
WASH, who died in December, of
1949. Before he died Strandwold
completed a new work entitled
Morse Inscriptions on American
Stones" soon to be published. The
book features pictures and trans
lations of "a runestones of Morse
origin. Dr. Leach thinks that
runeologists will be fighting over
the book for the next century and
that it will produce columns of
vigorous denunciations. He also
/ believed that StrandWold will be
regarded as great pioneering
scholar in his field in 200 years or
so.

team onward with terrific speed
and unfailing courage as an un-
surpassed leader, was Togo. Togo
provided the one tragic note in
that chorus of cheers that greeted
the completion of the serum drive.
For Togo, the one and only, Alas
ka's top dog team leader, became
crippled after that long journey
with Seppala.
There was never anything like
him for speed" says Seppala. He
beat them all. He had fight in
him. He could outrun any dog"
His Ego Was Devotion
Named after the Japanese ad-
miral who routed the Russian fleet
at Port Arthur in 1904, Togo, who
weighed so pounds, was the dream
Of any dog team driver and lover.
His ego was devotion Seppala
gave him away to another person
twice. That was too much for
Togo. He howled furiously, tore
curtains, broke windows and sped
four miles faster than anything
that has ever broken loose in Alas
ka to come back to his beloved
master Sepalla both times.
Togo needn't be canonized, even
though he was the subject of
book. He was a legend before he
died. Today his hide and skeleton
is mounted in the Peabody Muse

rake
potential buyer, how to shake
rands and let the prospect drag
him into the house, how to make
fitting polite remarks and ease
his way into the business of SELL
ing without making it too appar-
ent. Once the prospect liked him,
the going was easier, out if the
prospect made some remark about
not being able to buy the book,
Hiding would either quote a fit
ting line or two from the Bible
or reverse the approach so that
the prospect would be thinking of
something pleasant. The degree of
confidence he could build up be-
tween him and the prospect often
determined the outcome of the
sale. This went on and Hiding
made some money and learned
some things about the American
people and their homes.
Contrasts Among Income Groups
He found the standard of living
was not as high on an average as
newspapers and books profess. He
found that books and paintings or
reproductions were very scarce in
the homes Of people in the low
er income groups, who spent most
of their money on cars and ma
terial comfort. Those same peo-
pie, however, We're more apt to
buy the Bible than those in the
upper income groups, who had
more leisure and money to read
or buy it.
From his job Hiding learned
particularly one thing. Americans
in business don't wait for oppor-
tunity to come to them. T h y
either grab it or exert a lot of
effort to get it. If that doesn't
work they create it. And. when
they create it they put tn ell
soul into it.
Relatives Here
Hildings soul may be quite AM
ericanized by now, but he hasn't
lacked American Influences in the
past either. His parents. Mr.. and
Mrs. T. karneus, have both lived
and are well known in Seattle
which Hiding once visited when
he was three years old. His moth
er, born in the United States, is
the daughter of the late Mr.. and
Mrs. Gustav Edenholm, Seattle.
and her sister, Hattie Edenholm,
a piano Teacher, and brother,
Roy Edenholm, both live in Sc
attic. Hilding's father operates
cheese factories in Eskilsturna,
Sweden, and Hiding was working
in a book store in his native
Sweden, before he arrived here.
He's leaving soon, but it shouldn't
take long before he's back again

acquired in Seattle.
