JUST ‘'WONDERIN’
I wonder what we now may do
To aid the cause of peace
And hold the line so dearly won, ‘
Where deadly conflicts cease.
The sound and fury die away,
But peace will come in vain,
Unless we seal our thoughtless lips
With that one word, refrain.
Once upon a time, not many years ago, there lived in the
City of London, a lady of social prominence, who became
known to the world at large, as “the women with the serpent’s
tongue.” Now this lady’s hands were clean; she did not steal
nor wield death dealing weapons, neither did her feet lead her
into the paths of vlugar sin; but oh, the twisted mind and the,
hissing tongue of her. With these she wrecked homes, destroyed young love, ruined careers and blasted spotless reputations. . doubht if any save members of her immediate family
mourned her passing. I imagine that in many circles, pious
voices were heard repeating the words of R. L. Stevenson,
“thank God, an’ there's an end to that.”
This is of course, an extreme case, but it demonstrates
the dangerous extent to which the unleashed tongue may go,
and the dire ruin which may follow in its wake.
This is an era of transition in which great and remarkable
adjustments are in the making. It will be no easy task to amalgamate forty or fifty nations into a cohesive whole that will
function in the interests of all. There are many fine distinctions to be observed, many delicate balances to be maintained.
Bigotry and prejudice must be laid aside, understanding and
tolerance must be the order of the day.
It is so easy to start a war, so difficult to hold the citadel
of pece. Wars begin with litffe things; the lovely face of Helen
“launched a thousand ships,”’ the flaming lust for power in the
heart of one maniac led humanity into the second war. Who
knows the potential power for evil which lurks in an unfounded rumor, the sly innuendo or the thoughtless expression of
black suspicion? /
Let's remember the ‘““woman with the serpent’ 4 tongue”
and be sure that there is no poisonous barb upon’ our own
tongues. We may criticize, to be sure, but let us base our criticisms upon well founded knowledge of the subject under consideration, in which there is ‘‘malice toward none.” That will
make for the constructive criticism so needful at the present
time and for the enlightened understanding upon which the
peace we have won, may be preserved.
“Yes, there were differences between us and there will
be more; but the differéhces will pass and friendship will remain.” These words recently uttered by Generalismo Stalin
should linger in our memories and suggest the greater issues
for which we strive —A. Merriam Conner.
PEACE AND EMPLOYMENT
As mighty war machines the world over shudder «= and
grind to a stop, we turn—confidently or in panic—to the winning of the peace. Most of us see this problem ‘in terms of hold.
ing jobs, running businesses and operating farms.
The problem, ir another sense, is one of finding ways of
transforming the energy, resourcefulness, courage, nd imagination of our war making effort into instruments for peaceful living. In important ways the lessons of war cooperation
can be applied especially to Northern and Central California
ere as never before, we have discovered the rich dividends
of working together as neighbors. This area has emerged from
the war with a unity of effort and aims which should stand us
in good stead.
‘In addition to our spirit of mutual assistance, we of this
area have many other assets. The fundamental industry of the
post war reconstruction is food. The world must be fed, and
we can be certain that the great interior valleys and rich coastal stretches of this region will be called upon to help supply
the hungry millions of the world.
Moreover, this region of California, while delivering its
full share of weapons and ships, has also developed a diversi-.
fication of industry and small business which can and must,
absorb much of the employment slack. They can be turned into the peaceful channels of reconstruction: lumber, minerals, .
and their finished products—homes, appliances, furniture.
petroleum products, and many specialties to bind up_ the
wounds of the world.
Finally, the sudden collapse of our Japanese enemy has
been a windfall to this region. For many months we on _ the
. Pacific Coast have feared that the rest of the country, freed
from the European war, would be able to reconvert its industry while California would still be supplying the Pacific theatre. The quick ending of the war gives us of this area an equal
opportunity to compete for the markets of a peace time world.
How well we do will be a measure of how well we have learned the lessons of the war, chiefly the lesson of cooperative and
concerted action. We believe we can swing it, let’s roll up our
sleeves and prove it. —Contributed.
POSTWAR ERA IS HERE
San Francisco, which long ago took the first necessary
steps to prepare for the troubled period of post war conversion
and reconversion, has now taken the second. The Citizens’
Post War Planning Committee has brought in its report to
_ Mayor Lapham, suggesting $177,454,040 worth of new developments and improvements, together with a plan for financing them as painlessly as possible. At the same time the
Chamber of Commerce has announced that its “work pile’
of construction and eeppension projects now reaches $170,Nevada City Nugget _ .
000,000.
‘in California éan do this same
nomy.
Relative to its size and potenfialities, every community
thing. Careful planning is the
only way to insure smooth passage from war to peace ecdChief among the San Francisco Planning Committee's
recommendations is one which will have immediate effect on
all the state north of Tehachapi—a $20,000,000 enlargement
of the San Francisco municipal airport, to enable it to accom. modate the planes of all the big national and international air‘lines, thus making San Francisco the principal airline focus of
. . the west: Already this recommendation has been placed on the
. ballot to be voted on at a special election November 6.
i
The value of such an enlargement of the San Francisco
. airport to the surrounding territory is obvious, and incalculably
great. Many cities which have had scant air service will now
‘have good air service stemming from this field to the benefit
so many others, San Francisco’
lof their producers and manufacturers. In this instance, as in
s gain will also be the gain of
all Central and Northern California.—Contributed.
FARM NEWS
PEAR PICGERS ‘NEEDED
The Farm Labor Office of the
Agricultural Extension Service reports that pear pickerg are in demand in “Colfax and Chicago Park.
The heavy crop of pears in this area
requires an above normal number of
forchard workers. Referrals to jobs
may be sceured from the Labor Office
in Newcastle, or by application directly to the packing houses in Colfax.
DDT AND FLIES
Further tests with DDT for control of flies in dairy barns will be
carried on under the direction of the
Agricultural Extension Service in
Nevada County following a year of
experimentation by the College of
Agriculture of the University of California.
‘Results obtained with DDT = § to
date in controlling flies have been
most gratifying and because DDT is
now vailable, farm advisors will carry on additional demonstrations in
the various counties.
In tests to date DDT has been used
of DDT susepnsion
direction for mixing and using DDT
in dairy barns will be suppRied to
dairymen who cooperate in further
experiments.
The following precautions are important in applying DDT in the barns:
1. All milk cans and other utensils must be removed from the washroom and milk cooling rooms. The
milk cooler and sinks should be covered with heavy paper oy otherwise
protected from ‘the spray.
2. ‘Care must be taken to avoid
wetting foodstuffs.
3. The feed troughs should he
hosed down just before the barn is
sprayer and again as soon as spraying in ‘that portion of the barn is
completed.
4. The spray -operator should
Keep his skin as well protected as
possible, and following each job he
should thoroughly wash his hands
and faces in soap and water. If spraying is done continuously and clothing ‘becomes heavily impregnated
with the spray, a change of clothing
is advisable.
VETS MAKE SOUND INVESTMENT
Veterans using accepted credit
sources to finance purchasp of farm
lands will prevent many blunders
made by their comrades who finaneced through private sources, according to Arthur Shultis, specialist in
farm management. Agricultural Extension Service, University of Cali‘fornia.
Shultis explains that careful appraisals by financial institutions are
a safeguard against the purchaser
losing the property through assuming an indebtedness which cannot be
paid out of future’ income.
Evidence that many veterans are
. aware of this fact is shown in the
. loans already made by twelve federal
land banks. During the nine months
ending June 30, 1945 299 loans for
$1,292,300 were made to veterans or
their wives or husbands.
“This implies that a substantiai
number of returning
able to finance their purchases on a
sound basis,"* Shultis Said, ‘‘veterans or other persons who obtain a
land bank loaneto buy a farm must
make a substantial down payment
and should have operating equipment. Most loans through the land
‘banks for the purchases of farms are
ibeing made to buyers who have had
expérience in farming.’’

CANNING:
Fruits do not need sugar in canning to keep from -spoilage, but
sugar helps hold flavor, color and
shape, according to Jane Hodges,
Emergency Food Preservation “ Assistant of the Agricultural Extension
Service. Home makers who put up
fruit with no sugar need to understand that it will not look or taste
like that canned with sugar, but it
may be sweetened to taste before it
is served. Sugar may be dissolved in
the juice of the canied fruits, or the
juice may be heated with sugar or
the use of this material in dairies of;
dissolved in kerosene and asa spray .
in water. Full:
sirup before pouring it over the fruit.
. Heating imereases the sweetness.
. Each year commercial canners
ijpack apples, peaches, bluberries and
. eherries without sweetening for the
Pore trade. The jars of fruit may be
filled with juice or water instead of
ithe’ usual sugar sirup. Juice is preferalble, and may be made from the riper, softer fruit which will not hold
its shape in canning. ‘Fruits probably best suited to home canning with
out.sweetening are peaches, apples,
apricots and cherries. Even though
everyone likes fruit canned with sugjari-im the present emergency mauy
families may prefer lightly sweetened or unsweetened fruit to none.
