BOO 0G Geeeeeeos FANTASTIC LAND OF FUNGI RED JELLY FUNGUS (edible), Phlogiotis helvelloides Highly rated in Europe as an edible species, where it is mostly pickled, candied or used raw in salads, this colorful orange-red jelly fungus is found commonly here under cedar trees. I have found it in December and on into February., Having somewhat of a funnel-shape with an opening on one side and a slightly. ruffled edge, it reminds me of a very c olorful petunia. A hoary sheen sometimes seen on younger specimens is a characteristic feature and greatly enhances their beauty. The flavor raw is very mild and one gets more of a sensation as of: eating jelly, than a pronounced flavor. I candied some and they make quite an unusual delicacy, but by adding mint flavor, it even enhances their edibility. My recipe for this has been printed in "Kitchen Magic with Mushrooms", a recipe book published last year , by the Mycological Society in San Francisco.

If season and water levelare right, we often see and hear thousands upon thousands of snow geese and Canada honkers taking off, landing, or just feeding on the grain left by the harvesters. Surely this is one of the few sights and sounds in nature capa~ ble of producing currents Of €Ce stasy in the veins of warm-blooded humans and, somehow, just watching these splendid birds on their travels along their ancestral flyways gives us reassurance that life goes on and that season follows season despite a changing world.

Financing for this development, as spelled out in the plan, will come from Federal and state sources and from coram ercial development. Nonew taxes on land are proposed or anticipated for recreational uses in the county. The price tag, along with other proposals fot recreational development were revealed when the Board of Supervisors released for study andreview a proposed Public Outdoor Recreation Plan for Placer County. James H. Grubbs, Chairman of theRecreation Commission, said that the plan is concerned primarily with the functional use of land within Placer County for public outdoor recreation to be developed both by private organizations and Government agencies. The plan, as released by the Board, contains detailed and spe~ cific proposals for the development of activities ranging from camping, hunting and fishing, to the resurrection of some of the colorful aspects of the county's history. The planning: period covered in the plan spans a 21-year period, and anticipates a growth in population in the county to approximately 170,000 permanent residents. The plan, also, contains proposals to meet demands of these residents and of those from surrounding metropolitan areas, and for tourists from further afield.
By 1985, the plan anticipates that boating will draw 3.72 million visitors annually, with camping, 3.26 million, fishing, 1.88 million, hunting, 240,000, picnicking, 1.54 million, riding and hiking, 398,000, swim ming, 3.5 million and winter sports, 2.5 million.

As Nevada County land is split, Paye notes, more people come but there are not more jobs. Perhaps we can expect more small industries, perhaps more retail activity as additional tourists come. But the big problem--how toreduce the high unemployment rate? No answer. While there isnosingle answer, there are several avenues open and others planned to aid areas such. as this in helping to solve unemployment problems. . A federal Youth Conservation Corps is expected to benefit Nev~ada\County to a limited degree, accelerated public works projects have already benefitted Sierra County ahd might be of value to Nevada County if it should qualify forthe program, there is a Man~ power Development and Training program availableto farmers and farmemployees saddled with low incomes, and there is a Rural Areas Development program under the Department of Agriculture. \ The accelerated public works program has been working to advantage in other areas, As ex* amples. Olivehurst is in the pro~ cess of a $184,000 project with In 1960, San Francisco had 29,000 residents of German: birth or parentage. aidthat came under the law, and Wheatland is due to vote on a $140, 000 bond issue which would enable the construction of a $257,000 project under federal aid. The law was passed in 1962 by the &7th Congress, It is likely that the RAD will be the agency toimplement President LyndonB. Johnson's War on Poverty when that program is announced, Operated to coordinate all federal assistance programs, the RAD acts only after local people organize to help their own area. It works with the local participants and calls in state agencies that can also be of service. Perhaps an answer to Nevada County's unemployment problem can be found, But as long as the “silent enemy” remains hidden in the county's closet, that potential answer will not be found. It will take action by interested Nevada County residents, and cooperation by federal and state agencies to begin to solve the problem. The action from local residents’ must come first.
