December 2, 1950: "The headquarters office of the Warm Springs Indian reservation here has announced that the Warm Springs Lumber company, one of three bidders, has been awarded the purchase of 100,000,000 feet of timber, chiefly ponderosa pine, in what is known as the Boulder area salvage sale. The company, which operates a pine sawmill and planer plant just east of here where the Warm Springs highway crosses the Deschutes river, entered the top bid of $18.05 per 1,000 feet for the timber. The sale of the big block of pine was hastened, officials report, because of an infestation of pine beetle." (The Bend Bulletin)
