We have felt a glow of pride and a sense of . our great inheritance as the moving words of our Declaration of Independence were read to us. And we have gone to our homes when the celebration. was over, with a new born understanding of the great gift that our forefathers and the ‘brave . men who followed them, gave us—when they gave us Am. erica and American liberty. That was in normal times, in peace times, with our loved ones gathered around us for the family and national holiday —with the sun shining brightly, with everything well with our world and with fireworks scheduled in the park during the evening. We were patriotic yes, in our easy-going fashion. We were then grateful some of us to those who had died to make it possible—and maybe even humble as we counted how much we owed them, But to many of us, the Fourth of July was just a holiday from work—a time to go fishing or hunting, a time to make merry. This year it is different—as different as blood from wine. We will still do many of the same things. We will still sand with bare heads as the flag goes by. but we will see the red in the Red, White and Blue, this year and we will not think of our independence as something which some ancient forebears granted us, but as precious, vital, living thing which our own sons and brothers are resking their lives to preserve for us. On July 4, 1945, we know the price of liberty. We know that the Declaration of Independence is an immortal document only because mortal men—the men of this community and of all the cities and towns of America—are willing to die: to preserve it. —Contributed. 60 MILLION CASUALTIES Since the fighting in Germany ended, military leaders ~“thave been seeking to determine, with some degree of accur acy, the terrible cost in dead and broken bodies which must be charged up against the European war. Counting military casualties alone for there is’ yet no complete check of the millions of civilians who were killed. maimed or rendered insane during the appalling conflict, the human carnage is estimated as follows: Dead, 14,000,000; permanently incapaciated 5,500,000; ‘ total military casualties including wounded and missing — 60,000,000. To that toll must be added, when the whole cruel truth is _known, the untold millions of civilian dead and injured; the tens of millions of dispossessed, whose families have been scattered, whose homes have been destroyed, whose every material possession lost; the starved and insane, and a cest in mortal and spiritual breakdown so staggering it is beyond human estimate. That shameful record is a féarful reproach to every unthinking person who has callously considered wars inevitable. War has become a plague of such horrible proportions that the very existence of the human race may well depend on _ the ability of men and nations to conquer it and live at peace.— Contributed. , the control of insects that transmii . diseases to man or attack and annoy FARM NE\ ) . him and reduce his efficiency. GROW MORE POULTRY MEAT . There is a critical need for more) ento“To a considerable degree, -meat chickens as quickly as produc“ition schedules will permit. Nevada County growers are urged to start one or two extra broods of chicks starting at once or to increase the ‘size of broods already in prospect. W. O. Hill, emergency food production assistant, quotes W. E. Newlon, specialist in poultry of the agricultural: extension service, University of California who says producers should bear in mind the WFA is asking for an increase of chickens for meat, not to increase of chickens for egg production. He says the present shortage in eggs may be considerably changing a year’ from now. Newlon callg attention to the increased ceiling price of broilers, fryers and roasters. Popular demand is for meat chickens of the New Hamp®hires, Rhode Island Reds and the ‘Plymouth Rocks. These birds are) most profitable for meat when three, ‘or four pounds in weight. Newlon @aid three to three and one = half! pounds of feed will produce one . pound of gain on meat birds. i COUNTER ATTACK ON INSECTS . Wartime experience in combatting insect pests has broadened an important field for research in eotomology and for practical application of results, according to S. A. RohWer, assistant chief of the bureau of entomology and plant quarantine, U. ate” Department of Agricluture. In diseussing possible post war developments in entomology Rohwer said: “Much of the entomological work th it is being done by the armed forces is of a type that has received inSinise attention and support. The ‘is doing much to prove the need the benefits that can accrue from . jfarm of 640 aeres near Mitchell, /mologists have neglected this field not because we failed to recognize its importance, but because it did not provide opportunities for employment. In many ways it is closely allied with public health. Where the activities are planned.to obtain protecting results, however, many of the operations have to be based on entomology. War has done much to Ssuvenirs cf hwo. Campaign Marine Corporal John J. Sydlowski of Plymouth, Pa., wears a Jap cap and works the bolt of his captured Jap rifle, but it’s ail a matter of indifference to “Iwo” and “Jima,” his two buddies. The Leatherneck picked up these souvenirs, including the twin piglets, during fighting on the Iwo Jima battlefront. Also indifferent is Sydlowski’s : tentmate, whose foot is visible at the left. (U. S. Marine Corps Photo) have been reported in many areas of California,aceording to K. G. MeKay specialist in veterinary science. ‘Agricultural extension service, university of California. One of the’ significant effects of poisoning from these wild plants is an increase sensitiveness to light: or white skinned areas of animals. The skin shrivels and sloughs off to the muscles. Horsebrush effects’ sheep and produces the malady. known as bighead. It is a range disease prevalent when sheep are being moved to the range in the early part of the season when other feed is short. Klamath weed has the same effect upon white skinned areas of cattle and horses. Dr. McKay says horsebrush and Klamath weed are not palatable and therefore are not eaten by animals whén good range is available. He warns that stockmen may expect trowble in those areas where rain was scarce and inferior grass this year. A bulletin of the agricultural experiment station, university of California such inffo: vation on stock poisoning plants as is necessary to identify them as well as the effect of many other stock poisoning plants upon livestock. This 90 page bulletin, gives illustrations, many of them colored to assist in identification. Prevention and control is discussed in many cases. This bulletin stock poisoning plants of California, is available at no cost at the agricuitural extension service office, 135 Court Street, Auburn. Home Source of Pasture Seeds— Many farmers faced with shortage of seeds for pasture grasses may have a supply source in their own neighborhood, according to Burle J. Jones, specialist in agronomy, agricultural extension service, university of California. Sulbterranean clover, harding grass burnet tall fescue and the rye grasses are among pasture grasses which can be seeded by spreading the ripening hay of these grasses on the soil. Many farmers already have pastures from which they can take such hay, and sometimes it is available from a neighbor for seed purposes. Jones says when cutting pasture plants for seed they should be moved when the seed begins to ripen and hauled immediately to the field where the ‘spread of the plant is desired. The hay is spread about where it casts its seed, and the straw makes a good mulch to encourage germination and growth of the new seed. Jones says very little seed of subterranean clover and harding grass is gives prove this and to get the principle recognized. The identity of the insect is important; knowledge of its habits and how it may be controlied . is essential. These are the same basic . principles long applied in control of insect pests of agriculture.’’ New Secretary of Agriculure—Clin. ton P. Anderson farmer in his own. right, is now secretary of agriculture . and war food administrator. Anderson owns and operates a farm of 800 acres of irrigated land south of Albuquerque, Bernalillo . County, New Mexico, and another! Davison County, South Dakota, his native state, where he was born October 23, 18915. On his New Mexico farm, Anderson maintains a herd of 125 Holstein cattle, both grade and reg gist. ered animals, and raises alfalfa, oats, . barley and grain sorghum for feed. The milk is sold on the fluid mar-. ket. © As congressman at large New Mexico Anderson was chairman of a special committee of the house to investgate food shortages. He recently presided at regional hearings on the food situation in San Fran-/. cisco and Los Angeles. . tions have further available in California. Burnet may . ed. Apples, apricots, pears, peaches, and other large stoned fruits, cherries, figs and plums may all be stored successfully in this way, ready to be dehydrated and sweetened if desired, at the time of use. One or more of several different processes may be .used to give the best possble finished product, Sulfuring is recommended -to preserve the color of certain fruits, and also to decrease the loss of vitamins A and C. This is done out of doors and under a heavy box or carton which will hold the fumes of the burned sulfur around the fruit long enough for them to. be effective. ‘Fruit may be heated through in hot syrup to increase the sweetness and also to help prevent darkening. This may be done in syrups made not only from cane’ or beet sugar but also from corn syrup. Complete directions for preparing the fruit, dehydrating, and storing it are offered in the circulars drying of vegetables and fruit in the home by W. Cruess, Hilda Faust and Vera D. Greaves. Directions for bulbing and operating dehydrators are ,also included. Free copies of this may be be had on request at the agricultural extension office. BOOKS SENT VIA VLADIVOSTOK TO. WAR PRISONERS Fifteen tons of books and recreational material for the use of allied prisoners of war, held by the Japs in the Pacific, are now enroute to Viadivostok according to. advice received today by Vernon Stoll chairman of Nevada County War Chest from H. S, Chase, chairman of the central area for California War Chest. The material sent by war prisoners aid, a member agency of the national war fund, includes: sport equipment, musical-instruments and a wide selection of books. Jap vessels are expected to pick up the material at Vladivostok and _ transport it to prison camps. While the Japggave notice some time ago that neutral visitors of w2r prisoners aid would‘pé given permission to visit certain camps in Formosa, Shanghai, Indo-China and elsewhere, they have not allowed formal reports to come through. Evidence that material furnished be obtained in the markets at presby war prisoners aid is reaching the fornia have shown these grasses to be well adapted to California conditions. Safety Signposts—Haying season is one of the most dangerous of the year on the farm, as shown by farm accidents statistics. Wartime -condiincreased the hazards of this season with inexperienced and untrained help, harvest machinery which is older and in poorer condition, and other war time shortages. Farmers are likely to «give less time to repafrs of haying equipment during this critical: period. JP: . Fairbanks specialist in agricultural ‘engineering of the university of Caifornia, suggests the following ways in which to lessen accidents during the haying season. Check ropes, pulleys, and hitehes all times. Do not attempt to work on mowWatch starts and _= stops loading, @specially on rough ground. Dehydrated Fruits—Little or ‘ent.

War prisoners aid is reaching prison camps in the Pacific has come, however, from some American prisonere of war who have been released by our forces in the Philippines. War prisoners aid is financed along with the USO, United Seamen’s Service through our own county war chest which also includes the home front agencies in the one campaign scheduled or this fall.

At this time last year Americans had oversubscribed 7 two war loan quotas, . each three billion dollars in Series E War Bonds. It is obvious your personal share must be greatest of any of the war loans. And yet it may be no higher than or even less than the combined amount you invested in bonds -in the 4th and 5th War Loans. Why should you continue to put every dollar above the cost of the necessities of living into ex} tra bonds? 1. Uppermost you owe an obligation to your fighting men and women to back them to the limit-as long aS any enemy military strength remains. 2. Think about Iwo Jima for a moment— sacrifice on the battlefieldsis still a way of life for your rela; tives and. friends in uniform. The self-interest motive is at.a new high. Civilian goods are now scarcer than ever before. Every dollar you spend for nonessentials works for higher prices. THE EDITOR SALE OF GOLD SUSPENDED Asked to comment on the cessation of issuance of gold deposit, Dr. P. H. Chang said through the sale of gold the government has absorbed as far as eighty billion dollars of notes from circulation. He said as measure of checking excessive note issue this has met fair measure of success. The government is temporarily suspending the sale of gold and durng the suspension it is reconsid“ering how best it can. make use of the policy of selling gold. MOUNT ST.
