PENICILLIN MAY SOON BE MADE IN ABUNDANCE The surest way to indicate the significance of the following item is to quote the editor’s preface to an ariicle on “The Yellow Magic of. Penicillin’’ in The Reader’s Digest for cucing the germ-killing drug continuously and in large amounts by an adaption of the technique commonly used in the ‘“‘quick’’ process for the production of vinegar from wine or cider by acetic acid bacteria. Key equipment in the vinegar generator method is an upright tube filled’ with wood shavings. The shayings are inoculated with percillium notatum, a special non-green fungus plant which produces the yellow colored penicillin. While'ja stream of air ‘flows through the fube, the medium which nourishes the fungus is fed drop by drop into the top, and a constant flow of penicillin containing liquid comes out at the bottom of the tube.

In explanation of these principles, Hotchkiss’ said in an accompanying statement: ‘Curtailment of federal expenditures for peace time tions and for those not: directly connected with the war effort is abso‘lutely necessary because needless ‘spending stimulates inflation, and means adding to he post war burden. : Concerning our second point, reduction of expenditures for capital outlay, the federal government has acquiring, vast areas of rural lands and valuable urban properties for military and related purposes, presumably temporary in nature.> Such purchases involve large outlays of money, and they result in removing taxable property: from the local tax rolls in an inequitable manner.-We believe that it would be in the best interests of both the federal and local governments: if. suchy properties were acquired by short term leases, rather than outright purchase. “Point number three, reduction of federal personnel, is not only feasible but necessary in our © opinion. tent of the legislative braneh of the (Many federal offices not essential to ACME BREWERIE NEVADA CITY eo down ee a3 ; Buy INDUSTRY ‘is — winning.the:-. 7 PRODUCTION ob baae S ¢ San Francisco ICE DELIVERY _ 101 BOULDER ST.

BARREN LAKES SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. ‘13.-—(Carrying out a plan originated and supported by the Fresno ‘County Sportsmen’s Club, the California State Division of Fish and Game is conducting a survey of barren’ waters and infrequently stocked lakes in that region with the object of determining their suitability for planting. William A. Dill, biologist of the division, is directing the work of the volunteer assistants, members of the club. The plan had its inception in the fact that too often in the past a lake which was found to be barren was stocked without ‘giving due consideration to its carrying capacity, or ‘o because it adds to the debt which ithe gpecies of fish for which it was best suited. The present survey will eliminate this hit or miss method, and should give better. fishing as well as better utilization of the available fish. The system is to survey a given drainage basin one year, and the following year to stock its waters with fish indicated, while at the same time another survey party surveys another drainage. The Bear Creek basin was surveyed in 1942, its barren waters located and studies made of certain lakes which had given poor returns on earlier stocking. In 1943 a party of volunteers under Ralph Aten spent about ten days here catching golden trout out of the streams on barbless hooks, putting them in cans on pack horses, and’ transporting them to barren lakes. Seven lakes were so stocked with 420 adult golden trout, and it is believed that, with spawning areas available, the initial seedings will take care of the rather light fishing in these remote lakes. At the same time another party of volunteers under Dill and Warden Paul Kehrer surveyed the Mono and Minnow Creek. drainages. Sixteen lakes were examined, of which seven were barren. Of the latter, five ap-' peared to be worth planting in the future, Of the lakes studied, some have never before ‘been reached on horseback and: many are nameless.. The sportsmen are considering naming these after deceased Fresno war heroes. This energetic and well organized group are determined to continue their work regardless of war obstacles, so that returning service men may have good fishing when peace comes.
