Fires have been fought this season
Shasta, Lassen, Plumas, Tahoe, El Dorado and Stanislaus
national forests. There were fires adjacent to the Sierra and Sequoia national forests. In the Lassen national
forest, a fire near Kinshew, three
miles east of Sterling City, hag burn-.
ed over 2'500 acres to date, and has
called in over 700 fire fighters, including army personnel from Medford, Ore.
State forestry crews are fighting
a blaze on Mt. St. Helena, in Napa,

has swept over 2000 acres and called,

Declaring that a considerable percentage of forest fires start at road
sides, the board of directors of the
California state chamber of commerce at its last. meeting voted to
urge that forest management administrations and the state highway
commission give more attention to
clearing inflammable material from
roadsides in fire hazard areas prior
to the 1946 forest fire season.

is now coming on the market as are

over their regular prices for soling
of shoes with these two types of materials because of higher costs.

A Step Toward Civilization
Says the San Francisco Chronicle
Aug. 3:
“Senator Vandenlburg as a delegate to the United Nations conference, saw 50 nations work together
and agree. Drawing on that experience he proposes a conference of the
leaders of industry; labor and government to work out a formula for
peace within the United States. If we
can win future victories at the council table without the preliminary of
the battlefield or
streets, we have taken a step toward
civilization:”

WIDE POWERS
SACRAMENTO, Sept. © 24
pointment of members of the
State Disaster Council which ae
ed-the State War Council Sept:
has been announced by Gov. ne
Warren. The new legislation trans.
fers the powers of the war council
to the governor, and establishes the
disaster council as advisory to him.
Under the new law, cities and the
counties are authorized to extend
“mutual aid’’ for fire and police protection. In cases of ‘‘extreme emergency’’ the governor may take over
the direction of any state governmental agency to cope with flood,
fire, earthquake, pestilence, sabotage or riot. Lalbor controversies are
specifically excluded: by the act.
Pre war laws confined fire departments and law enforcement officers
to their local jurisdictions, Governor
Warren pointed out. The State Disaster plan, he said, ‘‘makespossible
the intergration of the activities of
all agencies concerned with the protection of life and property, making
peace time use of a war time lesson
in cooperation.”’
Declaration of a state of extreme
emergency would have to be upheld
by the state disaster council within
seven days and the legislature within
30 days, or otherwise it would lapse,
according to the new statute.
Apointed to the disaster council
were Sheriff Engene W. Biscailuz of
Los Angeles county, representing law
enforcement agencies; Harold T.

EXPERT URGES
WINTER PASTURE
FOR DAIRY COWS
Recommendations on the 8-point
dairy program for 1945, take care of
your land, have to do with. both immediate and future production. These
recommendationg are set forth ‘by
G. E. Gordon, specialist in dairying
of the Agricultural Extension Service
University of California in the report
of dairy herd improvement associations for August.
Nevada County dairymen who
raise their own feedstuffs find it important that land be handled to produce an abundant quality of good
quality feed.
The report reads in part:
Good soil practices, involving the
use of manure, commercial fertilizers, rotation of crops, growing of
legumes, drainage, and erosion control, can be helpful in the preservation of land resources while at the
same time increasing the yield of feed
and milk per acre. z
Reports on the feed situation indicate that many feedstuffs, particularly those high in protein, may
be difficult to secure in desired quantities during the coming fall and the
winter months. The use of fall and
winter pastures may therefore be
particularly helpful in balancing a
possible shortage in protein feed
supplies, Winter pastures that can
be pre irrigated and planted during
September or early October usually
provide satisfactory amounts of feed
that can be used by around Christmas or earlier. Good, high quality
roughing feeds are usually the cheapest feeds available, and good pasture
usually provides food nutrients at
lower Cost than any other roughage
feed. Dairymen who are interested in
developing new permanent, irrigated
pastures, should plan now for such
‘pastures’to be planted this fall or in
the spring.
