Railway HORSE RACING HELPS SUPPORT COUNTY FAIRS Millions of visitors attend the annual agricultural and livestock fairs in California—expositions made possible largely through financial support of the state. Funds for the purchase of grounds, construction if fair facilities, payment of premiums, expenses of operations, management and supervision are derived from the state’s four per cent levy on pari-mutual wagering on horse racing. The primary purpose of the California fair program is_ to further improve agricultural and livestock production through competitive showing at the 77 fairs which receive financial support from the state. In addition to this educational objective and the providing of entertainment for fair-goers, is the aim to increase all-year use of fairgrounds and facilities by the communities in’ which fairs are located. . Today -the fair is—as it has always been—the greatest show on earth. Buy a Share in the P. P. Railway FIVE FROM COUNTY ENLIST IN NAVY Five from Nevada county enlisted in the Navy during August according to the naval recruiting headquarters of Sacramento. From Nevada City were Robert L. Smithson, Henry W. Anderson and Henry D. Murphy. Ralph L. Rudkin, Grass Valley, CAN A LANDOWNER TAKE FISH FROM TRESPASSER? ‘Can a California landowner claim the fish or game caught by a tresspasser? . : Is public fishing permitted, on all waters stocked by the state? What is legally posted land? . Answers to these and many other timely questions :on the state’s trespass laws have been made available* to California sportsmen by the Santa Anita Sportsmen’s Club. J. B. Tietz, Los Angeles attorney, has put together laws and opinions from several sources under the title “Hunting and Fishing Trespass.” Copies of the pocket-size booklet are sold by the club secretary, Room 517 Douglas building, 257 South Spring street, Los Angeles, 12. Cost is three copies for one dollar. According to the booklet, game surprised and killed by a trespasser belongs to the owner of the land. The old common law principle was.upheld in 1897 by the California supreme court. ‘While it is the policy of the fish and game commission not to stock waters that are posted or to permit stocking on any private property unless at least one third of the water is open to public fishing, the state is without recourse when private’ property is later closed to entry. Legally posted property is defined as uncultivated or unenclosed lands where signs forbidding trespass are displayed at intervals not less than three to the mile along roads and exteriors boundaries. Entering lands under cultivation or enclosed by fence for the. purpose of hunting or fishing is a criminal trespass. Among the booklet’s contributors is Deputy Attorney General Ralph W. Scott, counsel for the California fish and game commission. Buy a Share in the P. P.

Ne JEARLY GOLD SCALES FEATURE COUNTY EXHIBIT AT FAIR Seales which date back to California’s early gold rush days and are reputed to have weighed $1,000,000 in fine gold and nuggets, are being displayed in the Nevada county exhibit . at the California State Fair in Sacramento. The scales have been lent to County Agriculture Commissioner Leonard G. Lageson, by the Bank of America and'they have [been given center location in the huge display of quartz and placer gold exhibited by the county. The scales were purchased ‘by N. D. Rideout, pioneer banker in the historic gold regions of California, but records show they were tested as early as 1857 for accuracy by the U.S. bureau of standards. As mining activities developed in Nevada county and through the Mother Lode,: the scales were used more and more to weigh the riches taken from Sierra mines and placer claims. Nevada county has a very impressive display of gold valued at more than $60,000. This includes quartz rich in the yellow metal and fine gold from placer claims. Also being shown are samples when it is raw serpentine to the time it becomes the finished article. The serpentine is processed by crushing to a powder which is later calcined. It then becomes liquid and later turns to crystals. From the crystal, the magnesium is formed. Pears and apples, for which the: county is famous, complete the display. Buy a Share in the P. P.
