Newspaper Page TextSUNDAY, JUNE 26. 1960 MEDFORD. MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. ORE. Medford Student Arrives in Berlin For Summer Visit DeAnne Taylor, who is par ticipating in the American Field service summer-exchange program, arrived in Berlin last week by plane from Hannover. She was met at the airport by her AFS family, Mr. and Mrs. Schelle. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. DeVere Taylor, 1011 Winchester ave., Medford. Miss Taylor left Medford earlier this month and sailed from Montreal June 10. She disembarked at Vlissinger, the Netherlands, June 18, and travelled by train to Dussel dorf, Germany. There she transferred to another train for Hannover where she spent two nights awaiting proper plane connections. Goes Sightseeing The American girl did con tiderable sightseeing while in Hannover, and showed spe cial interest in pictures show ing Hannover after the war and today, according to re ports received here. She said she was "most im pressed" with her German family and also said they have a "very nice home." The house is reportedly a three story dwelling with a base ment. In early September, Miss Taylor is scheduled to arrive home on the SS Grote Beer. She is one of several hun dred high school juniors sent by the AFS each year as "jun ior ambassadors." Selections for the trip were made by local AFS personnel and the AFS New York office.

Ives, SP 3-3669. By JOHN GRIBBLE (Editor's note: The fol lowing comments on trees, particularly those adapta ble to street use in Medford, have been prepared by John dribble, well known re tired forester, and will be run in a series during the 'tree planting season" here, now under way.) HORSE CHESTNUT, BUCKEYE These two so similar trees are widely distributed throughout Europe, Asia and North America. They are chiefly used for decorative plantings because of their showy flowers and luxuriant foliage. Several of these trees are about Medford. Some horse chestnut have white blossoms, some red. Buckeye usually have yellow blossoms, rarely red. The flowers are 6 to 8 inches, upright, pyramidal clusters, blooming in May and June. The 5 to 7 wedge shaped leaves are opposite on a midrib or stem, one leaf at the end in a palm-like ar rangement. Horse chestnut leaves open like an umbrella from a big glistening bud. No need to confuse the horse chestnut with the Catalpas or Empress Paulownia, although the flow ers are similar. It blooms a month earlier, and the leaves are different. (Some Catalpas are just beginning to bios som now.) All native species bear a big brown seed with a gray eye and a prickly, leathery covering, at times painful to barefoot walking beneath the trees. The meat is bitter, the bark Is bitter, narcotic; "only fit for a horse," hence its name "Horse chestnut." Ever since,, maybe before, Longfellow's village black smith clanged his anvil "un der the spreading chestnut," people built houses near such a tree, or planted a horse chestnut tree nearby, and on streets. Now we have the Ruby Red Horse chestnut (Aesculus car nea Brioti), a fruitless but beautiful red-flowering tree with deep green foliage, "a masterpiece" of beauty for street or lawn. It grows to 30 feet tall, with pyramidal crown. This is the tree for Highland dr., 50 to 60 ft. apart. Cooperation all over the city in this street tree plant ing project has been gratify ing. As the trees grow larger, more beautiful, and more valuable, this city-wide beau tifying improvement will be increasingly appreciated by all of us, and city visitors. More Wafer Is Reported in Shasta Redding - About 10 feet more water was measured in Shasta lake last week than there was on the same date ! last year, according to the I Lake Shasta Chamber of Com merce. The lake level, which Is measured on the basis of al titude, was 1,046.34 feet ele vation' June 20 compared to 1,036.38 feet on that date last year, and 989.08 feet last La bor day. When full, the lake level Is 1065 feet. Unseasonal storms prior to Memorial day left 4'4 inches of rain, and helped boost the storage behind California's largest dam. Even in the driest years the lake is said to have sufficient water for recreation, since the bureau of reclamation antici pates that only once In about every 50 years is there a chance the lake may drop to an elevation of 850 feet. That is the point at which no pow er could be generated. At this level, however, the lake at Its middle vnnrttl still be about 250 feet deep, the chamber noted. What This World Needs Is a New Fertilizer When you got up to break fast this morning, and put your feet under the table, 60, 000 brand new people actual ly opened their mouths and waited to be fed. That is how many people were born during the last 24 hours in this world of ours. In the United States alone there were 4,000, and tomor row morning there will be that many more. Carrying these figures out a little far ther we find that at the end of a year there will be a mil lion and a half in America. In the world, there will be 21 million: and they will all be asking for food. Must Come From Land And the food to feed this rapidly increasing population must come from the land. The "Good Earth" must be pushed harder in order to keep up with the added load. There is. on this globe, about 35 V4 billion acres of land surface; 17 per cent of which is per petually covered with ice and snow ana lorever unm lor agriculture. The remaining 83 per cent is severely reduced by rocky terrains, swamps, lakes, riv ers, deserts and city pave ments. The actual farming area is about 7 per cent of the whole, of which not more Week of Day Camp Completed by YMCA One week of the YMCA day camp was completed Thursday by 40 boys ages seven and eight. The week was considered successful by YMCA officials. Some of the highlights dur ing the week were explora tion hikes into the woods, gold mines, and across the swing ing foot bridge over the Ap- plegate river. Boys also made nature craft from things found in the woods. Most of the boys rode half a mile down the river rapids in a rubber life raft, On Friday night the boys cooked out on an open fire with their fathers, slept over night and cooked breakfast Saturday. The second week of Day Camp will start Monday morning, according to Pro gram Director Carl Gordon, Anyone interested in going should be at the YMCA at 8:30 a.m. Monday. Age limits for the camp are seven and eight years old. Equipment needed is only a sack lunch, swim suit, and towel. Boys are transported to camp on a bus each morning and return each afternoon. Additional information may be obtained from the YMCA at SP 2-6295 Chicago - (Science Service) - A Chicago doctor has warn ed fellow physicians to look out for patients with two new ailments: ""aguar chest" and "Corvette hip." than 4 per cent is devoted to food crops. There was only a thin film of topsoil in the first place, and it is becoming thin ner as each season passes. Wind, rain, and all the forces of erosion are working con stantly to wash and wear it away. Once gone it never will be recovered. There are no agricultural frontiers yet to be explored. There is no way in which we can increase the acreage in any important amount. The answer to the demand for more food, to feed more peo ple, is a problem that sci entists are going to find is a splitting headache that will become more painful as each year passes. Worked With Corn "Making two blades of grass, or two stalks of wheat, grow where only one grew before" sounded like the right answer up to a few years ago when agriculture colleges and plant scientists began the ex tensive application of this principle to every known crop. But it didn t work out, ex cept in one outstanding ease. The hybrid corn grew and produced in a manner that in creased the corn crop many fold. With all other grains the result was disappointing. The trick does not seem to work with wheat, rye, or any of the others. Perhaps the answer, if there is an answer, is in the discov ery of a more efficient fer tilizing agent; something much better than any that we know about today. It is going to have to be cheap, plentiful, easily applied and available everywhere. Fifty years hence the "Good Earth" has got to be a whole lot richer, or there are going to be a lot of people hungry. (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 1960) wallboard for shelters being set up In the battered regions of southern Chile. Supply Materials Chileans are supplying oth er necessary materials and arranging for the construction of units which later will be converted into permanent two-family homes, the Red Cross reported. The U. S. stale department has worked out plans for roof ing and some wallboard to be flown to Chile, while the balance of the wallboard will beshipped by sea. The Red Cross also report ed it is assembling in Chile 5,000 family kitchen units having a tolal value of over $175,000. Each unit contains a two-burner kerosene stove, large cookpot, frying pan, wa ter jug, tea kettle, wash tub, soup ladle, plates, c u ps, knives, forks, and spoons. Dis tribution of kitchen units was begun on June 14 in Conccp cion. The American Junior Red Cross Is sending to Chilean youngsters, affected by t h e disaster, 150 school chests filled with such Items as rec reational equipment, health items, and school supplies. Since the disaster struck in late May, the American Na tional Red Cross has sent vast quantities of drugs, clothing, blankets, and other urgently needed material for thousands of victims. Local Red Cross officials said that Jackson county resi dents have made generous donations of money, clothing and blankets. There is still an urgent need for financial assistance.
