"But I don't mind the pub licity at ail," he added. "It should help business." o Members of the Willson School Community club have protested establishment of the camp because its boun dary is about 600 feet from the two-room Willson school. "They're afraid some of the children will see things they shouldn't see," Oja said. "But that couldn't happen . . . not unless the kids fly over the , camp in a helicopter." . Oja said his 19-scre csmp is well-protected, from "snoop ers" by '.shrubbery, fences and other barriers; : Medford Man Finds Relative's Pictures The Aug. 29 issue of the Saturday Evening Post, which featured a two-page picture of the 77 lineal descendents of the Adolph Rieger family of Baker, Mont., at a family pic nic on the .Rieger ranch, is of particular interest to the Ro land Hover family of 3381 Ma drona lane.

SHOP BY PHONE SHOP IN PERSON Hunting Conditions Could Be Improved in Root-Plowing Root-plowing and reseeding of various brush-covered areas in Jackson county would im prove hunting conditions if the experiment proves practi cal, according to Charlie. Shep pard, state game department biologist here. ' " ' Sheppard said Friday that manzapita brush covered areas like those in the Applegate provide poor feed for deer and game birds. The brush is not attractive enough to deer although deer can eat it, he said. The brush also robs the soil of moisture and no cover is provided underneath it.

Central Program habitat, such a reseeding pro gram could prove beneficial to quail, the state game biologist said. Such a reseeding pro gram would help produce a good deer population in the Applegate and- a fair quail population, he added. The area is definitely not an upland game area, he em phasized. Good deer forage areas would attract many deer away from irrigated crop lands where deer eat and trample much alfalfa each year. Sheppard also agreed that more grazing area would make it possible to remove much of the cattle from land which could be better used for recreation. Portland on their return trip this week end.
