KLAMATH LAKE MOULDING CO.
Pelican City > Lake Ewauna
July 31, 1947: "The Klamath Lake Moulding company has become increasingly active in the local lumber manufacture field in the past few years, and has taken a leading position in lumber re-manufacturing here. Its re-manufacturing operations are located on South Sixth street, and its sawmill division has been located at the Boy Scout mill, where it will continue until the change to Big Lakes on Lake Ewauna. This firm has been active in timber purchases in this area, and recently contracted to buy 50,000,000 feet from the Umpqua national forest in the Diamond lake country. The company is now building a logging road to bring this timber to Klamath Falls, via the Southern Pacific from Yamsay siding near Diamond lake junction." (Herald and News)
October 21, 1947: "Klamath Lake Moulding company of Klamath Falls yesterday obtained 22,948,000 board feet of timber in the Umpqua national forest for the minimum forest service bid of $123,128.35.
The company submitted the only bid in the auction at the forest service office in Portland.
The timber stands in the Diamond lake junction near where Klamath Lake Moulding is currently engaged in logging operations on a 50-million-foot contract with the Umpqua national forest. The company has a private road from the logging area down to Yamsay siding on highway 97.
The logs from this stand probably will be trucked to Yamsay siding, then loaded on flat cars to be hauled into Klamath Falls by train.
Klamath Lake Moulding's bid was $6.05 per thousand board feet of Douglas fir; $2.20 per thousand board feet of hemlock; $8.40 per thousand on pine and $2.20 per thousand on white fir,
The stand is estimated to contain 20,415,000 board feet of Douglas fir; 1,026,000 feet of hemlock; 975,000 feet of pine and 432,000 feet of white fir." (Herald and News)
