SUM Writer, The Omoniaa
I Just discovered a new coun
try. It'i called Klamath Falls.
Of course, there aren't any falls.
But there are plenty of Klam
ath. The woods are full of
ttom.
Lots of things you can get in
Klamath Falls you can't get
anywhere else including a hot
foot It's the only town in the
country where you can get a
hotfoot with your shoes off in
the middle of Esplanade street
in the middle of January. Whole
country's about ready to come
to a bolL All you got to do is
drill a well and tap the devil's
hot water tank.
It isn't only the streets they
heat, with natural hot water,
but their homes, about 400 of
them, and a couple dozen busi
ness buildings.
But when it comes to oddi
ties, don't miss the B&W (Black
and White) ranch, southeast on
highway 70 from Klamath Falls
to Olene, thence southeast on
Poe valley road. Better check
with the Klamath Falls cham
ber of commerce for directions.
Even Blinds Are Block
There's no sign on the ranch.
It's a private home, but a
Zoo's Who of all that's Black
and White.
All buildings are white as
angel feathers with black
roofs, black trim, even black
trimmed Venetian blinds. Mel
vin Felgi, the owner, drives a
black and white Olds. Mrs.
Trpic-!'. noodle Is black.
Carolyn, 12, raises white and
black rabbits and wnite jap
silkv chickens. Brother
Lee rides a genuine all-white
(but not albino) llama, one oi
the few in existence. What's
even rarer, Jack the llama is
as gentle as dog. He had a
mate (named Jill, naturally),
whn was so ornerv Felei sold
her. Never been able to find
another white one.
.Tnrk has an almost-black emu
for a mate. (An emu is an os
tracized ostrich and most dlf-
fimilt tn Interview).
In another pen is an animal
we might as well snip, xou
won't believe it anyway. Called

It looks like a jet-propelled
rocking chair with hair, oiacK
af course. This wallaroo snorts
and bounds around like a bebop
fan, really gone.

Best way to sample them all
and get the flavor of this seat
of ancient Indian and prehis
toric Indian culture is to check
the brand new Klamath county
museum run by Dr. Claude E.
Schaeffer. There's nothing dead
about this showplaee except the
stuffed pelican in the showcase;
Then don't miss the Modocs.
They're still there, in spirit, if
not in fact lurking behind the
devil's own fortress in the lava
beds south of Klamath Falls,
where they fought and
whipped the United States
army of 1872 with all its pomp
and power.
Some of the nicest people
you meet here around Klam

These birds own Klamath

the biggest body of water in

wooden-wheeled oxcarts and
steam engines used in Oregon's
