ren mountains, a scorching
sun, and the relentless wind
remain. Only the peopli
changed.
They used lo come in wag
ons or on loot. Now they
arrive in air conditioned cars
Calico was born in the
early 1880s when three pros
pectors discovered one of th
richest veins of silver ore in
history. Within a few months
more than 4,000 persons took
up residence in tents, lean-tos,
and holes they picked out of
the mountains.
Calico died 16 years later
and became a ghost town. To
day the population is about
30.
The town, nestled in the
foothills of the Calico range
was resurrected by Walter
Knott of Knott's Berry farm,
He spent more than $700,
000 restoring the decayed
mining mecca ot the past lo
cated 150 miles east of Los
Angeles.
The few residents live off
the jingling pockets of lour
ists who take a step into the
past and relive the excite
ment of the Old West
It can be recaptured brief
ly:
A stroll down the board
walk streets, past Lil's saloon,
Hank's hotel, Lane's General
store and the Calico Print
first published in 1882. Mrs.
Lucy B. Lane, a Calico resi
dent in Its heyday, is still
alive and has returned. She
sits outside her store and wel
comes the tourists as she used
to greet the gun laden miners
in her youth.
Also Church
Calica had fires, shootings
and bordellos. But there was
a school and a church too. Al
so a Boothill
For 16 years Calico lived
gayly, boldly and bawdily,
More than $88 million in sil
ver poured from her mbun
tains in those boisterous years
$10 million from the Silver
King mine alone.
Veins of ore four feet wide
were uncovered. Some ore as
sayed at 200 to 400 ounces
per ton. Today the tourists
can take a ride through an
old mine' shaft, ride a small
railroad cart down the moun
tain or pay 25 cents to view
freshly dusted antiques
When the price of silver
dropped in 18D6 the hardy
miners left In search of new
riches and so did the rest.
Some stayed behind in
Boothill which overlooks the
pock-marked hills. But ad
venturers in the 1880s had a
sense of humor even about
dying.

Parly Foods Can
Be Prepared Prior
To Evening Event
Too often a party is fun for
everybody except the hostess.
With the right kind of
freezing space at her com
mand, however, the hostess
can have more fun than any
body. Because, in addition to
enjoying the party, she has
the knowledge that she's
achieved a social success with
a minimum of effort.
The freezing space she
needs can be found in either
a 1963 refrigerator-freezer or
a separate freezer.
To eliminate most of the
fuss involved in getting ready
for the affair, plan the party
menu, prepare the delicacies
in advance and freeze them.
On the day of the big event
an tnat s needed Is to remove
the party food from the
freezer, ready for serving.
All Kinds Froten
All kinds of food can be
frozen - cakes, nut breads,
fruits, sandwich spreads,
canapes and pies, or even a
steak or Cornish game hen.
Many kinds of containers
packages and wrapping ma
terials have appeared on the
market to keep party deli
cacies fresh and good tasting
A container that's moisture
and vapor proof is a must.
The combination of quality
food, some advance planning,
and a modern freezer guaran
tee an enjoyable party for
everyone, particularly the
housewife.

Pakistinis Save
By Feeding
Cattle Molasses
By JOHN BARTON
Karachi, Pakistan - IUPI)
Pakistan livestock breeders
and farmers may save a lot
of money because an Ameri
can animal nutrition expert
likes molasses.
Burch Schneider, who
teaches at the West Pakistan
Agricultural university in
Lyallpur under contract with
Washington State university
and the U. S. Aid mission to
Pakistan, discovered that 50,-
000 tons of molasses are
dumped into rivers each year
in Pakistan because sugar
mill operators cannot find a
market for it.
He estimates the wasted
mount of this proven source
of highly digestible energy
could replace grain raised on
more than 100,000 acres of
farm land.
Schneider also learned
through research that Pakis
tani livestock breeders are
using expensive and scarce
grains such as barley to feed
their animals. In food-short
reas, this competition be
tween man and livestock for
the available supply of cereals
is a serious problem.
Import Grains
In fact in many areas of
Pakistan it is necessary to
import food grains to prevent
near famine conditions.
The nutrition expert also
found Pakistani farmers know
very little about the value of
molasses as an animal feed.
Schneider decided to do
something about it.
He held demonstrations for
farmers in the former Punjab
rea so they could see the
value of molasses as an animal
feed and learn how its use
Iso could save valuable
cereals for human consump
tion.
Schneider selected ten pairs
f bullocks for his demonstra
tions.
For a period of 20 weeks
ne of each pair was fed a
ration of barley while thp
ther was fed a ration con
taining molusses.
At the end of the experi
ment the weight differences
between the two groups was
statistically insignificant.
what was significant, how
ever, was the difference in
the feed bills. Molasses can
be delivered anywhere in
West Pakistan in tank car
lots for eight to twelve times
less than barley.
Schneider was pleased with
the results of his demonstra
tion, and farmers and suear
ill operators share his en
thusiasm. Farmers are inter-
ted in a cheap, nutritious
nimal feed. Sugar mills see '
new source of income from
by-product previously
thrown away. As sugar oro-
ction increases, so will out
put of molasses.
