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.

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.

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. <> Bnjovient Eat maser Our patrons find that despite \7 % rationing and wartime conditions the quality of our meats measures up to the same high stadnards we _ have always maintained.
