The following appeal is made this week by Mrs. F. T. Martin, chairman of the committee: "Now is the time for street tree care. A suggestion to all residents having young street trees is to deep water them now. Until after spring rains come, the ground is very dry. This care should bring gratifying results. "After removing all weeds from around trees, a sawdust mulch several inches deep should be put on to conserve moisture and control weeds. Sawdust hauled in by members of the Lions club is available for this purpose on the north side of Woolery Memorial park. "Those trees that are leaning should be staked and tied secure ly to prevent a crooked tree. Metal rods or pipes suitable for tree staking should be 8 feet long or longer.

He helps to build, and also services, underwater oil wells and pipelines. Murray is not a Standard employee... he's an independent contractor, with five other deep-sea divers on his payroll, and thousands of dollars of his own money tied up in equipment. He started specifically to serve Standard's offshore drilling operations near Santa Barbara, and, from this small, local beginning, has become one of the busiest submarine contractors on the West Coast. While his services are unique, he is only one of some 18,000 individual suppliers from whom Standard buys goods and services every year. Many are small, independent operators such as Murray Black.
