Major Wallace, who is an exvert
on firearms and is Associate editor;
of the Pacific Sportsman 2s well ‘as .
president of the Wes\Pn ‘Sports
men’s Association, was accompanied
to Nevada City by H. E. Catlin, Placer County Farm Advisor, who demonstrted approved methods of handling various kinds of rifles, pistols
and shot guns. (Much interest was
shown in the military positions of
fiing prone, sitting, kneeling and
standing.
Wallace outlined the organization
of the militia, in which 18,000 are
.
already enroled. Men and boys from
16 and 65 are eligible to join. They
will be called into active service only
in case of invastion and then will go
on duty in their own home counties.
The major expressed the view that
the Home Guards in England, after
which the militia is patterned, have
prevented invastion of the British
Isles, as the enemy knows how thoroughly they are prepared.
EAT NUTRITIONAL FOOD
‘The good old Yankee custom of putting up, food for the
winter is being practised throughout the land this summer.
No doubt you too, will be filling pantry and cooler shelves
while orchard and field crops are plentiful.
For fraits and berries the shortage of sugar is not too serious a check. Some berries can be put up in natural juices
without sugar. Or you can stretch your sugar allotment by
the use of honey for sweetening. Jams ane
for fruit can be made with all honey or half honey and sugar.
For vegetables do not trust old methods for cold or hot
pack. Seek the latest and safest methods from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, your State Extension Service or
this company’s home economists. It is wasteful and dangerous to can vegetables by impr
munition of war. Buy it right. C
jellies or syrup

LOCAL TEACHER’S
SKETCHES ARE
ON EXHIBITION
Madge Harding, Nevada County
schoolteacher, has a group of children’s sketches on exhibition in Sacramento at Crocker Art Gallery.
The sketches are in black and
white and in color. Pictures of two
_lof the sketches were in The Sacramento Union yesterday. A picture was
also run by The Sacramento Bee in
its Saturday issue.
The Sacramento Union art critic
praises the local artist’s work as follows:
“She paints exquisite and imaginative characters that will delight
children and grownups alike. Her
feeling for color which expresses
moods, her flair for design as well
as her excellent anatomical drawing
deserves superlatives. Probably the
best thing that can be said is that she
is not imitating Walt Disney but has
developed a unique set of characters
of her own. Her work will undoubtedly be seen in children’s books
when she is ‘discovered’.”’

Carelessness Causes
Five Fires In Tahoe
National Forest Area
. Assistant Supervisor (‘Marc ° Edmonds of. the-Tahoe’ National Forest
states that the number of fires caused by carelessness on the part of
forest users is increasing daily. fo
date the Tahoe has had eight fires,
five of which have been traced to
careless smoking. Edwonds has issued instructions to all forest service
field men to enforce all forest and
fire regulations in compliance’ with
the recent forest closures issued by
Supervisor Guerdon Ellis. These closures’ prohibit the use. of campfires
unless they comply with regulations
outlined on the campfire permit and
limit smoking to main traveled roads,
campgrounds and other posted areas.
Edmonds advises all forest ‘users
that forest defense is a very vital
part of our national defense effort
and urges that they do all in their
power to prevent the recurrence of
fires of this type.
Many Favorite Spots
Now Available
Forest Engineer Gerald Mitchell of
‘tthe Tahoe Nationtl Forest states that
all forest roads are open-to travel by
fishermen with the exception of the
Fordyce and Grouse Ridge roads in
the Big Bend disrict. It is not ex‘pected that the Fordyce Lake road
‘will be opened for traveluntil July
10, while the Grouse Ridge Road is
blocked by snow three miles from the
lookout. According to Mitchell, fishing is considered good with the exception of some of the creeks in the
high country that are running full.
Mitchell further states that bait fishing with salmon eggs seems good in
the creeks and trawling with a spinner in the larger lakes is popular.
