Buck a good muny ycura
ago, before the consolidation
of achoola wua thought of,
nearly every community thai
had a achool had a buaehall
team. Tho big drawing card
lo any Fourth of July celebra
tion wna the baseball game.
Wo remember attending a
celebration at JackaonvlllR
when the main event wua the
hall game between tho home
team and the Eaglo Polntcra
who, with Joe Vanlicrocn
burg, their left-handed pitch
er, had trounced nearly all
the teams In tho valley.
The game started off close,
with neither aide acorlng for
acvcral Innlnga. Then an
Eaglo Point boy straightened
oul ono of "Dobblc" Dow's
curves for a two-bane hit und
the Englo Point rootera on the
sidelines went wild. They hud
no bleachers or grandstands
thoac cloys. Rooters stood In
lines or sat on the ground.
During the excitement, Ellc
Orm, county sheriff, walked
over lo the Eagle Point line
with five $20 gold picrea In
the palm of his hand, which
he Jingled under the noses of
the E.P, fnns, and dared them
to put up or shut up. We
didn't nollco anyone putting
up, or very many shutting up.
We don't remember how the
affair ended, as those timca
we traveled by horses, so hud
to leave In time to do the
many chores on a diversified
farm.
Betting on a ball game evi
dently wasn't considered an
offense those dnya.

more numerous here thia sea
aon than for many years. One
man who does much Irriga
tion work has killed IS of
the reptiles with a .22 caliber
pistol which he carries wun
him. There havo always been
rattlesnakes here, but so far
as we know, and checking
with others that have spent
many years here, the recent
biting of Lewis Lathrop was
the first In the history of the
district.
Peter Sage. 10-year-old
son of the Bob Sages, was
telling us that ha gets 40
cents an hour for pulling
weeds out of his dad's
Christmas tree plot. This re
minds us of work we did
when a boy of 12. Clarence
Gunn operated a grain bind
er here some 60 years or so
ago when practically all the
farm crops grown In the
community were hay. grain,
and corn.
Most of the hay was fed
to work horses and milk
cows and much of the corn
and small grains waa led to
hogs. Many of these were
made into bacon and cured
In the farm smoke houses
and later sold to merchants
like Jerry Neunan, of Jack
sonville, to pay the store
bill which was paid once a
year. William Byboe drove
his herd of irom 200 to 300
hogs to Happy Camp, Calif.
Some wheat was sold to
local mills and some made
Into flour for home use.
Moat of the farmers had
large families and It took a
lot of produce to keep the
larders filled.
To go back to our Job, we
rode the lead team on the
five horse rig, from sun up
till as long as wa could see
In the evening, for 50 cents
a day and board. At the
close of the long season,
Gum offered us a double
barrel mussle loading shot
gun, In payment for our
summers work, which we
thought was quite enough,
but when we told father
about our "wind fall" he
said that would be a foolish
trade, and to ask for our
pay in money, so we could
get a suit of clothes, which
we did. We got an all wool
suit (or $7 which was our
pride and Joy for a long
time, the only drawback
being that when we put the
suit on, we had to wear
shoes, and mother was sure
to ask If we had washed
our neck and ears.
