IN FAIRVIEW Woodland Rambles ! By JOE KIEFER To my friend, Joe Leuthold, of Government Camp who has climbed many a mountain. One of his many conquests of the high peaks was Saint Peters Dome near Bonne ville dam. Its riverside face rises two thou sand feet, half of that height be ing cliff. The climb was a tri umph of skill, daring and cooper ation of the other members of the party. Before man began to climb mountains he worshipped them. He named them Himalaya, The Abode of Snow; Denali, The Great One; Kilimanjaro, Mountain of the Demon of Cold. Late In the 18th century, Eur opeans overcame these fears and conquered Mont Blanc. Then the other great peaks of the Alps were tamed. In 1865, Edward Whymper, after seven failures, scaled that mountain of “beauty and magic and terror”..... the Mat terhorn. It was his “most glor ious hour”. But tragedy stained the triumph.

Why climb a mountain? “Be cause it is there”, said George Leigh-Mallory who perished on Mount Everest in 1924. Other men might give other reasons; adven ture, or to explore unknown ran ges, but real men climb in ans wer to a challenge. In 1924 George-Leigh-Mallory and Andrew Irvine, in an attempt to climb Mount Everest, vanished at 27,950 feet, just short 1078 feet of the summit. No trace of their bodies has ever been found. Sir Edmond Hillary conqueror of Mount Everest made his base camp at 17,900 feet and still had 11,128 feet to climb to the summit. He set a record of 10 minutes without oxygen at 29,028 feet but Whit taker and Sherpa Gombu of the American expedition spent 3 1/2 agonizing hours without oxygen, when their supply was exhausted on top of the mountain. The American Everest exped- itlon, biggest in U.S. history, sec ond largest to scale the King of Kings of the Himalayas, cost $400,000 and will take a long time to pay for. Purchase of the book, “Americans on Everest” can help defray some of the expense, as proceeds are turned over to the supporting group. Do you know that Ludwig Pust- scheller, 1849-1900, an Austrian mountain climber, ascended 1,700 of the world’s tallest peaks. Sev eral hundred of these had never been climbed before. * * * A few fishing tips- our Sandy River is rapidly getting better for shad. Once you catch one of these babies you’re really hooked. Tim othy Lake in our own Mt. Hood area has been real good for Kak- anee. I like this; a veteran angler was moved to write these words at the passing of his fishing pardner. The words are now cast in a bronze tablet on a rock beside a swiftly flowing trout stream: “When mist and shadows rob pool and sun of shape and sub stance. When the voice of the wood thrush stills, and the dog trout shakes his lethargy, well ••■ill we remember, stalwart gentle master of the Angler’s art. Half submerged In the smother.

Several different types of fungi are involved, but the name given to the particular Infection is based mainly on its location. Athletes Foot, or ringworm of the hands and feet, is by far the most common. Specific treat ment depends on the type of er uption. Socks must be boiled and shoes sterilized. An easy way to do this is to place an inner sole cut of blotting paper and soaked in 4% formalin inside the shoes for 24 hours, followed by 24 hours exposure to open air and sun. Ringworm of the face, arms hands or neck begins as one or several reddish irregular, slightly raised scaly patches. It spreads out along the edges and clears in the center. Itching, if present, is mild. This type can be contracted from (or given to) animals. Tinea cruris is a variety of the above type but occurs in moist folds and is very apt to become infected by bacteria. Ringworm of the scalp, caused by different fungi, is almost com pletely limited to children and until fairy recent times was cured only by the onset of puberty. Treatment was very frustrating. At the end of the 19th century the diagnostic and treatment center in France was the St. Louis hospital. The greatest dermatologists of the time worked there. However, all cases of scalp disease from this great institution were referred to the laymen, Mahon & Son, for treatment, which was a family secret. The cause was discovered around 1900 to be a variety of fungi. Deliberate clinical infect ions were produced and the course of the disease studied. It was found that factors in blood serum limited the invasion of the skin. Generally ringworm of the scalp tends to occur in circulation patches. The hair in these areas is lost and broken off. The patches may be single or many, large or small, and often join each other. Until recently, since there was no uniformly successful agent for treatment, doses of X-ray to produce temporary complete hair loss was the theraphy of choice because this was a severe public health problem. The work on the present treat ment got underway in 1939 with the discovery of a metabolic pro duct of Pénicillium, a mold, which has uses in agriculture. In 1947 griseofulvin was identified and stu died as an anti-fungal agent. The first use on man was reported in 1958. Now it is in the treatment of choice in ringworm of the scalp and is used in the other types when other measures fail. Pro longed treatment is often neces sary with this antibiotic, but it is effective and toxic effects are minor and not common. There are many more skin in fections caused by fungi, but they are not common in this country. Cattlemen Meet Jim Brooks, Madras, Chairman and George Russell, Vale, member of the Feeder Committee of the Oregon Cattlemen’s Association industry joined western cattle leaders in Boise, Ida., last week to map out plans to step up the action to secure passage of important legislation now before Congress. Feeders and ranchers from ten western states met at a special conference in Boise which has been arranged by the Idaho Cat tlemen’s Association and the Idaho Cattle Feeders Association. They endorsed the principle of leg- islation which would limit the importation of red meat to the average imports of 1958-1963. The group also urged changes in beef grading to allow for more orderly marketing of lighter weight animals apd urged a stepped up promotional activities.
