SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
TABLE ROCK
Richardson Family Arrives
By R. E. NEALON
Table Rock Donald Richard
son and wife, Doreen, with
daughter Diane, arrived July 29
from Portland to join Dennis and
Debbie, the two younger mem
bers of the family who have
been spending some three weeks
with "Gramps" and Grandma at
the J. S. Richardson home.
The Richardsons spend their
yearly summer vacation here at
the home of Don's parents, from
where they take trips to the
mountains arid fish in their favor
ite creeks for trout. They at
tend the Shakespearean festival
and visit with friends and rela
tives. They brought along
Raleigh Smoky's Silver Sonja,
a pedigreed young elk hound
dog, a daughter of Smoky, but
which looks more like a dog
and not so much like a registered
berkshire pig.
' Most of the local grain is being
harvested without sacks this
year, or what is called in bulk,
most of it going to feed stores
and warehouses in trucks made
for that purpose. This method
does away with considerable
back strain and saves a "right
smart" sum of money usually
paid out for sacks.
' The mosquito situation was
discussed here at some length
at a meeting held Thursday night
at the school house, attended by
some 15 mosquito-bitten persons
and Walter Suthcrlin. operator
of the fogging apparatus, and
Shy Morthland of the county
court.
There was some difference of
opinion as to the best method of
control, the visitors claiming that
the fogging machine that patrols
the highways at night had been
found after much investigation
to be the most practical and
thorough. This was doubted by
several local residents who claim
ed that examination of their
lawns only a few feet from the
highway the day following the
fogging operations revealed thou
sands of hungry, frisky, ferocious
mosquitoes.
Many local people were In
favor of spraying by airplane,
which they claim cleaned up the
insects and the hatching beds
several years agt, but this meth
od was not approved, so not
much help along this line could
be expected from the county.
It was stated by Commissioner
Morthland that Lane county uses
the fogging method, but has
$4,800 budgeted each year for
mosquito control.
The meeting concluded with
most of those present feeling that
each family should try and look
after their own premises and get
what help they could from the
county in locating and treating

Harry Ellis, recently of the
Central Point area, now of
Beagle where he and his family
were moved out when Camp
White was being readied for
training troops, was here one day
last week with some friends from
Iowa who took a swim in the
cool waters of the Rogue. Harry
says they are back to the old
home where they have longed to
be for some 14 years, away from
the hustle and bustle and traffic
jammed highways near the cities
and thickly settled communities.
R. V. Beall, the sage of Beall
lane, and his housekeeper. Miss
Caroline Drexler, were over this

blackberries along the river.
R. V., who sold his farm a few
years ago, says he had to buy
hay this spring for his cows the
first time in his life.
The Herb Grissoms of the Cen
tral Point district were visitors
here Thursday. They are very
much interested in chemicals be
ing used in food products and
poisons used in the new insecti
cides. They are sending us a subscrip
tion to the magazine, Natural
Food and Farming, which we ap
preciate. We have believed for
a long time that many of our ills
and new diseases are caused by
the way we live as to what we
take into our bodies in the name
of food.
Some 60 persons, members of
the Unity Sunday school class,

crats where they seemed to feel
very much at home.
Ray Ryan, Table Rock's east
side farmer, reports a bountiful
harvest of hay which he says is

after feeding it five months it
brought $14 less Bill Bray's com

HORNBROOK
Telephone Numbers Change
By MRS. H. H. CHAPMAN
Hornbrook Hornbrook's new
telephone numbering plan went
into effect at noon Thursday,
Aug. 9. The new numbers have
the prefix GRover 5. followed
by the four digits of the tele
phone number.
The new numbers place Horn
brook in the national telephone
numbering plan now being es
tablished on a progressive basis
by the Bell system. Under this
plan long distance operators can
dial Hornbrook numbers direct
from their switchboards. The
new Hornbrook numbers are in
cluded in the new Shasta, Siski-
a promising looking patch of po
tatoes on a plot of land leased
from our long-legged mail car
rier, the only carrier we have
ever had who could manipulate
his car while seated on the right
side.
A field of barley on the Sage
farm, put in by Ed Robinson,
yielded 104 bushels of barley by
weight, and was threshed by the
McDonough-Peffley combine, pi
loted by Richard Morris. This
was an excellent job of threshing,
and a remarkable yield, consid
ering that the grain was badly
lodged, much of it being flat on
the ground.
At the last meeting of the
Sams Valley Grange, the agri
culture committee chairman re
ported that valley grain dealers
had met and set their buying
price, which he said was below
Lthe government support. He also
noted that hay is being trucked
into the valley from other points
and sold at a price that local
growers can not meet and make
any money.
Mrs. Arthur Doty is home
again after several weeks visit
at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. John Bunten in Carson City,
Nev.
Miss Grace Bigham has just
finished an eight weeks term of
summer school at Southern Ore
gon college, and is now making
plans for a vacation motor trip
to northern points. She will be
accompanied by Mrs. Earl Big
ham and son, Kenneth, of Beagle.
Mrs. Manley Jacobson and
son Jerry, 13, and daughter Judy,
10, formerly of Areata, Calif.,
are now getting settled in their
new home on the Jacobson farm.
She says they are delighted with
their new location and especially
the climate.
O. T. Wilson of Central Point,
veteran operator of hay balers
and threshing rigs, is taking a
rest at his home following orders
from his doctor. His combine is
being operated here by Bill Dug
gan, who does the sacking, while
his son Dennis pilots the machine
for a full swath through the
fields. They threshed a field of
heavy yielding barley on the
Richardson farm that kept Bill
on the jump to keep up with
the sack sewing.
Mrs. Walter Timm reports the
following friends and relatives
were recent visitors at their
home, Mr. and Mrs. Perry Wright
of Enumclaw, Wash., Mr. and
Mrs. Vernon Shermer and two
children of Klamath Falls, Mr.
and Mrs. William Wagner and
Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Wagner
of Iowa City, Iowa.
In the recent death of Ralph
Billings, we fail to find words
to express our feelings. During
the years we have known him,
we found him a man of courage,
high ideals, industry, a sense of
humor and. love for his God and
fellow man.
These good qualities helped
to sustain us during the dark
days of the depression when we
worked with him on the county
court, trying to keep the county
from being torn apart.
