The place of Mrs. Emma Ranck
on Chase street was in the line of
the recent flood, and the surround
ings were somewhat wrecked. How
ever, after getting things tidied up
again, there is little actual damage;
even her flower beds are looking
just as flourishing, or even more
so, than when laid low by the wa
ter and mud. It would appear now
that but little real damage has been
done to vegetation along the creek,
and in many places there has been
a fine deposit of silt that will be
beneficial as a fertilizer.

The annual school election will be
held at the school house next Mon
day afternoon. At this time due to
the removal from lone of one di
rctor and the resignation of another
it will be necessary to elect three
new directors. As far as we can
learn no one Is announcing his or
her candidacy for election or re
election. At best it seems to be a
race of those who "do not choose
to run." Hard times always seem
to call for considerable criticism of
the administration of school affairs
which does not make people delib
erately hunt for positions where
they feel they will be unduly criti
cized. In the case of the affairs of
the local school district we feel that
a very good financial showing has
been made. Five years ago the dis
trict was $7500 in the hole and at
present they have outstanding war
rants to the amount of $4400 but
to offset these they have on hand
$7700 In warrants due them from
other districts and the high school
tuition fund.

ON OREGON FARMS
Lakeview Crested wheat and
Smooth Brome grass are apparent
ly the only grasses to survive the
past few years in most of the dry
land forage nurseries in Lake coun
ty, according to V. W. Johnson,
county agent, who recently made
a check up on this matter. Crested
wheat grass made an excellent
growth on the Charles Crump ranch
in South Warner valley where it
was planted early in 1929 on a dry
hillside, and the wind had spread
the seed and new plants were com
ing. Dallas Evidence that the earwig
parasites introduced into Dallas two
years ago have been of material
help in holding the pests in check
was gathered by J. R, Beck, county
agent, through a telephone survey
of the various sections of the city
recently. Early in May it looked
as though there would be a heavy
earwig infestation this year, Mr.
Beck says, but in the words of one
homemaker, "Something has hap
pened to them." Others interviewed
say that the earwigs are small and
