NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent Putting one extra letter in a line where it wasn't needed, changed the name of Miss Linda Cornutt to Linda Corncutt. ' No, ybii are wrong. It was not the M.T. The story was in the Royal Neighbor magazine published monthly at Mount Mor ris, Illinois. Since Miss Cornutt is a local girl, the story created quite a little interest. She is a graduate of Crater High School and is now entering her senior year at Southern Oregon College. At her high school graduation she received the Parent Teachers Association scholarship, and has recently been awarded a Jackson Foundation scholarship worth $1,000. The proud parents are Jim Cornutt, master of the Central .Point Grange, and Mrs. Cornutt, who is lecturer. A recent issue of the Mail Tribune telling of the many methods used to combat Jack Frost reminds us of another method used. A young man from Portland came to the valley and set out an apple orchard just across the road from our place. In due time, the trees grew to fair size, and blossomed out with prospects of a nice crop of apples. About that time a period of freezing weather began to hover over the valley. The young orchardist used the water treatment to combat frost. He had a barrel mounted on a flat bed wagon, pulled by horses. The barrel was filled with water, and a hand pump furnished pressure for the hose and spray nozzle. The orchard ist worked the spray nozzle and his hired "Chinaman" worked the pump. To be effective, the water should be put on before sun-up. For seven nights we had frost and seven mornings the spray was put on before sunrise, but one night the orchardist went to some kind of doings in Medford and didn't get home until after midnight, went to bed, and didn't wake up until the sun was shining through his window. He hurried out and put on the spray, but alas, it was too late. I used to know about all the farmers that were lured here by the beautiful pear blossoms, and remember many funny, and interesting happenings, especially with the ones from the Boston area, who had a brogue of their own. We wonder if the big headlines in Tuesday's M.T. telling that state institutions' budgets are being cut will wake up the "No" voters, or will they say its just some more scare tactics? We heard a talk over the radio where the speaker told what a great country we have, more cars, more radios and televisions and about everything the heart could wish for, including our abundance of food supplies. Then he said that in spite of all of this, we have people that contend that every thing is wrong here, and they seem to be terrifically unhappy here. Reminds me of what Col. Kelly, Judge Kelly's father, said many years ago. when we were having a siege of griping similar to the present one. He said-they don't believe what they are saying, if they did, and have the brains that God gave geese, they would get out of here. A storage plant is being erected at the Howell's Table Rock Gardens. This will have controlled temperature and ' will be a big help in the keeping and selling of garden prod ucts, according to Henry Rowell. A letter from Miss Gail t jhop of Bethel, Kansas, tells of her being chosen a princess in a popularity contest, which entitled her and her escort to lead the American Royal parade in Kansas City, Mo., seated in a new 1964 convertible. She mentioned other members of the family and said alt were doing well. Reading the letter, we felt she was bubbling over with happiness, but reading between the lines we sensed a little longing for the old Oregon country where she was born and has many relatives and friends. We were glad to get the-letter, and we hope her happiness continues to last and that her popularity doesn't cause her to forget the gang out in Oregon.

Mrs. Carl Quackcnbush of the Medford area recently joined a party that paid a visit to Dallas Purcell's sanctuary and reports a most cheerful visit among pleasant surroundings and cheerful people, who it seemed were not bothered with tensions or any disagreeable thoughts. She says she got a wonderful spiritual lift visiting with these people. Thought for the day Oregon is the land of promise. Richard Neubcrger.

It would then rejoin the present highway near Hornbrook. Spruce Cuttings Sent To Germany APPLEGATE VALLEY Twenty pounds of eight inch cuttings from the Brewer spruce trees were shipped recently to the Forest Genetic Institute in Ahrensburg, Germany, accord ing to John Kaiser, timber management assistant at Star Ranger Station. The cuttings were sent at the request of Dr. W. . Langer of the institute who visited Siski you and Rogue River National Forests three years ago while on a tour of the west coast. The cuttings will be grafted into European spruce i (Picea Omorika) for study of characteristics. A small amount of the Picea Brewerina grows in the Miller Lake area of Murgis Fork, tributary of Carbury. The spruce is not logged here because it does not attain suf ficient height. The institute re quested cones for seeding pur poses, but cones were not avail able. Ruch Church Honors School Football Team APPLEGATE VALLEY Marking completion of the foot ball season at Ruch Elementary School, Ruch Community Church honored the players and their parents with a banquet at the church Monday evening.

A school faculty member pointed out the significance of the dinner in showing close alli ance of school, community, and church. Freeway Route Throug h Siskiyou County California Highway Engineer Recommends Canyon Bypass SACRAMENTO, Calif. The California Highway Commission announced today that it will con sider at its November meeting or at a subsequent meeting the adoption of a freeway routing for 26.5 miles of U.S. 99 (Inter state 5) in the Yreka area of Siskiyou County between Gren ada and 2.5 miles north of Horn brook. State Highway Engineer J. C. Womack recommended a route which closely follows the exist ing highway from Grenada to Yreka, then swings east of the present road to south of Horn brook where it rejoins the pres ent alignment. The recommended route is along portions of the Green and Brown lines as discussed at a public hearing by the Division of Highways in Yreka on Sept. Dec. 7 Party Slated For AFS Students YREKA Plans for a Christ mas party to be held Dec. 7 in Yreka were made at an orien tation meeting for new Ameri can Field Service students and the families they are living with. The meeting was held at the Yreka home of Mr. and Mrs. George Bray. Also attending were Mr. and Mrs. Tom Dickinson of Yreka and two AFS student returnees, Steven Meek of Yreka, who spent last summer in Italy, and Michael P. Veatch of Klamath Falls, who visited Iceland under the American Abroad program. Present were Carl Alof Stodne of Karlstad, Sweden, and his 'parents' Dr. and Mrs. Norman Carlson of Fall River Mills, Calif.; Dekha H. Kiriloskar of Maharashtra. India, and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Abbe of Red ding; Ruth C. L. Schmidt of Bremen, Germany, and Mr. and Mrs. George K. Bray of Yreka; Emin M. Balay of Izmir, Tur key, and Mr. and Mrs. Wenneth L. Thomas of Tulelake; N. Michael S. Holman of Southern Rhodesia and Mr. and Mrs. Lyle R. Kellstrom of Klamath Falls; John Stanbridge of Cape Province, Republic of South Africa and Mr. and Mrs. Fran cis W. Andrews of Fort Jones, Calif. Students attending without the families with whom they are residing while in the United States were Pedro A. Roggiano of Buenos Aires, Argentina, who is living at the home of Dr. and Mrs. George A. Swendiman Jr. of Redding and Elpidio J. Sal deno of Aragua, Venezuela, who lives with Mr. and Mrs. William S. Anderson of Dunsmuir; El pidio Saldeno was accompanied to Yreka by Mrs. John Samuel son of Dunsmuir. Mrs. Tom Dickinson, who is AFS area representative, con ducted the orientation sessions. 26, and along the Yellow line as discussed at a second public hearing in Yreka on Oct. 3. The Yellow line is the route along the old Anderson Grade Road. It follows the ridge east of the Shasta River Canyon, whereas the present highway goes through the canyon. The expense of constructing a freeway through the canyon was one of the objections originally raised against routing the new road via Yreka. But the pro posal to construct the freeway on the ridge east of the canyon answered most of the objections and met with general approval in Siskiyou County. The Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors and the Yreka City Council have waived a public hearing on the matter by the commission. Plans of the Division of High ways call for the construction uf a four-lane freeway at a cost of approximately $28,300,000, in cluding rights of way. Start of construction will depend on the availability of future highway funds.
