je 4. 7 seeeescny ed 2, 1963. .Nevada County NUGGET Oakland, ROCKLIN ---Athletic Director Howard “Woody” Woodside recently announced the 1963 football schedule for Sierra College. .» Twonew opponents, Oakland City College and Stockton CC, willreplace College of Sequoias and Santa Barbara, onthe Wolverine schedule. The substitution will cut traveling expenses and loss of classtime by. athletes. The schedule also will give Coach Homer “Buzz” Ostrom 's team five home again next season, ' The-season again will be opened against former Golden Valley Conference archrival ARJC, American River is now in the Valley ConferBuck Kill Drops In Local Area SACRAMENTO---A final tabulation of the buck kill for 1962 disclosed that 54,, 909 bucks weretakenin 1962 comparedto69,118in 1961, the Department of Fish and Game announced this week. The final’count was taken Deg. 17. The 1962 take was below the average for the past five years, except inthe northern coastal counties and the counties of Butte, Placer, Calaveras, Merced, Kings, and Imperial where the bag topped the five year average. The overall decrease in hunter success this year was attributed totwo main causes. First, drought conditions from 1959to 1961 have resulted in poor range and water conditions for all deer. This.inturn resulted in a declining fawn survival over these years and further reducéd buck population. Drought conditons seri-ously affected range conditionsin all parts of the state except the northwest. Food supplies were particularly hard hit and leader growth on browse plants prior to 1962 onthe ranges east of the Sierra and Cascades showed very poor growth. Herbaceous food, which makes up a large portion of the deer diet,.was similarly affected. Sources of water alsowere limited inthe northeast, south coast, and the southern part. of the state. The DFG is currently conducting deer herd composition counts, and early indications are that fawn production in 1962 in some of the major areas checked will be markedly above that of the past three years, This should be reflected in more yearling bucks inthese areas in 1963. In Nevada County, the 1962 kill was 860 bucks compared with 1016 in 1961. Sierra County dropped from 922to 859, and Placer County also dropped from last year, 866 to 899. Average kill in Nevada County is 1059. EXPERT PRINTING Printing For -f Every Purpose ««CIRCULARS #**STATIONERY ** MAIL PIECES *#*BILLS **xFORMS NEVADA CO. PRINTING and PUBLISHING > § 212 W.

This isthe opinion of Car' roll E, Howell, professor of animal husbandry on the University of California's Davis campus. Pleasure horse riding is rapidly becoming a top national pastime, says Professor Howell, who is one of the West's most noted horse authorities. In fact, the recent Presidential report on Outdoor Recreation for America ranked horseback riding as more popular than such sports as camping, hiking, . water skiing and sailing. It topped all other recreations as the one that people wanted to take up in the future. A few months ago, a national magazine pointed out that owning a horse is no longer confined to the socially elite hunting set or to keeping a pony for the rich man's-child, These days, the equestrianis more likely to real estate salesman, school teacher, lawyer, or-engineer. Owning a horse has become a family affair, too, ‘said the magazine article, It is estimated that 35 to 40 per cent of active riders today own their horses. There seems to beno single explanation for the growing public interest in horsemanship. More leisure time, more money, the movetothe suburbs, all have been factors. Riding undoubtedly has been given an extra boost from the White . House through the equestrian activities of Mrs. Kennedy and Caroline. Paradoxically, the automobile has helped bring back the horse; City people who own horsescan load the animals intotrailers and get out inthe country to ride horseback on bridle paths and trails of their choice. Nonowners are within easy reach of many riding stables. . Whatever the stimulus, the number of riders is growing remarkably--a fact that seemstohoild true across the country., Wherea locality only had a handful of riding clubs a few years back, now — there are a dozenor so, Horse trading is being revived as an art. Horse shows, where both riders and horses can demonstrate their skills, are growing in number. Some 8, 500 shows are members of the American Horse Show Association. For every member show, the association estimates there are at least five non-member SERVICES .

One reason for the increasing popularity of horseback riding is that the entire family can participate on a yearround basis, In many cases, parental interest is aroused because a youngster becomes “horse crazy." Professor Howell strongly recommends the association of children with horses. “It's a wonderful way of teaching a child how to take care of “himself,” he says. “For one thing, youcan reach a child so much easier if he likes to do something. And children certainly love to work with the horse. They learn the principles of care and feed+ ing of the horse, the main= tenance of saddle and bridle, From that they learn how to take care of their own shoes andclothing, the importance of being regular in their habits and responsible human beings. ” «Over the years, the Davis professor has noticed that girls-and horses go especially _ welltogether. “I don't know exactly why," he remarks, “but I-have a theory that growing girls sometimes tend to become a bit lost in thisbusy world; they feel they're not wanted in certain places and groups; family frictions develop. But when they get ahorse, and learnto manage it, they obtain a much needed boost to theirego. ‘I.can do. something, I can ride. I can handlea horse, ‘ they say to themselves. They'll really work with horses, handling them and currying them, It's a release--a way toexpress themselves through love of an animal." Horses become as attached to. individuals as dogs do, says Professor Howell. They get to know certain people, will follow them around, and will learn to recognize individual voices. A horse is much like a person in its sensitive response to surroundings, and the approach you make to a horse often determines whether it is going to like or dislike you. Many people have an unreasonable fear of horses, For example, ahorse running up to a person on a field is just trying to be friendly, not trying tothreaten. He's running over to see what's going on. He's inquisitive, especially if he's a young horse. Sometimes he'll run over to ‘ the fence to see an automobile or another breed of livestock. He observes things. He reacts to people and movements and surroundings. ~ Professor Howell notes the “WANTED Coins, stamps, old letters, books(mining, history, technical-no novels) Pioneer 132 Main St., Nevada City. =.

"If a child hasn't been told too many things before he starts to work with a horse, the chances for success are excellent. Any child will do some things that are wrong. But a horse is not naturally mean, There are a few, of Course, that have been abused and brought up to be mean. ‘ Pleasure Horse Riding Top Pastime of around $100. .Asa judge of horses, ide fessor Howell has received wide recognition. When it _ comes to the horsetrader's art, he knows all the ins and outs, “A horse's general expected life is sixteen, and four to twelve is his prime of life. Sometimes when you're selling horses they never get to be over nine years of age. That's horse trading. “If you don't know anyIf a person is not too-par= thing about the age of horses, ticular about looks and lin_ eage, he maybe ableto purchase an ordinary riding horse for prices beginning at about $150; ponies run somewhat cheaper, A horse's keep will cost from $30 to $60 a month, depending on how much labor-sharing is done and whether or not the owner insists on housing him in an’ individual stall.
