They'll Do It'Every Time -'"p. By Jimmy Hatlo

Spring is here for sure. Dale
Muttoon Is seen around the town
in a brand new straw hat.
As soon as Charley Riley, back
, after a two month absence, puts
on his skimmer we'll have the of
flclal seal on tho season.
Now all we need Is the weather
to go along with straw hats.
At least one hard-luck fisher
man took off for the coast aitnin
today for another try at the wily
salmon. Joe Matllck. who has
drawn a perfect zero to date on
his fishing, left with the statement
that be was gonna stay with it
If it took the rest of the year.
Joe has less luck catching fish
than he does catching up with his
customers. He's a deputy con
stable during his working hours
Another fisherman, Fred Heil
bronner, came chortling back to
town last week with the news that
he had a fine time, got a terrific
sunburn on his ears and enjoyed
himself a mightily over on the
Rogue. .
Seems he did a little better this
year than last, when his wife
came off top dog. After the usual
wagering she came off with the
biggest fish, the first fish and the
most fish. Matter of fact Fred
didn't get any at all. But this year
he redeemed himself and left his
wife as far In the lurch.
The first man caused fire ot
the year on the Modoc was a little
Quarter acre affair at the junction
of 139 and the Lookout road.
Quick action on the part of the
rangers held it In check. But it's
a sign that the danger season is
here.

again on Wednesday. We never !

CAUGHT IN THE'ftOUNDS
By DEB ADDISON
There have been a number of
public reports and discussions on
plans lor Improvements to streets,
roads and highways, for better
handling of motor vehicle traffic
in Klamath Falls and Klamath
County.
This whole problem Is a con
tinuing one and a complex one.
A number of political agencies
are involved, including municipal
ities, counties and stales.
The public is concerned all the
way, and the citizens of Klam
ath Falls are directly concerned at
this moment because they will
' vote in May on whether or not to
pass a bond Issue for the purpose
of building a truck route through
town.
The public has heard particularly
from two groups:
The City ot Klamath Falls Cross-
- Town Traffic Committee alter
year and a half of work has un
snarled the town's problem. Their
immediate job Is completed except
for the voters decision on the
truck route proposition.
The Klamath County Chamber
of Commerce Roads and Highways More
Committee has given 1K4 pro- route.
gress report. For many years this
committee has worked witn tne
County Court and the Stat High
way Commission to coordinate ef
fort to open up, to standard
specifications, the routes leading
to Klamath Falls.
Let's take a look first from the
outside that's our first interest,
to improve the routes leading to
Klamath Falls.
Highway 97 in California will be
improved at the Dorris hill. This
Job should be completed this fall.
The contract has been let on the
Oakridge-Meridian Dam section of
highway 58. The Jackson County
Chamber of Commerce is working
for an all-weather route from Med'
ford to Klamath, asking the state
for Improvements to the route on
that side, coming Into Lake of the
. Woods and our Westside highway.
These are outside the County but
nave ine endorsement ot tne coun
ty Chamber. Inside the County.
the Chamber program of work

State, through the County Court

1. The federal primary group In
cludes Diamond Lake Junction to
Deschutes line and the Klamath
Falls Westside By-Pass.
2. State primary includes Klam
ath Falls Sixth Street Viaduct, Mer
rill to Hatfield, MerrlU-Lakeview
Junction to Bly, and Merrill-Lake.
view Junction to the Lost River
Diversion Canal.
3. State secondary includes 97 to
Diamond Lake, Midland Road,
Oregon Avenue to Fremont
Bridge, 58 to Crescent Lake, and
Lake of the Woods Junction to
Fort Klamath.
This work program simply gives
the State the concerted thinking
from Klantath County on what's
needed most and first.
The Chamber-County Court work
with the State shows a long record
of Important improvements. Klam
ath County, through its special
roads levy, has done a very fine
Job of improving the market roads
I throughout the county. The City
of Klamath Falls basn t fared
well.
For years the State has recog
nized the need for bettering the
norm . south highway 97 route
through town and for eliminating
the bottleneck on Sixth South from
the railroad viaduct to Main
Street.
people here couldn't agree
among themselves nor with the
State Highway Commission on
how to do it. The result was
stalemate and nothing was done.
Kow, the Cross-Town Traffic
committee has reached agree
ment, among its members, with
the City, and with the Highway
commission.
A new iour-iane viaduct over
the railroad, and Sixth-Seventh
and Main-Klamath one-way traf.
fic couplets will be built in the
next fiscal year. It's approximate
ly a million dollar job. The work
will oe done and the routes will
be maintained by the State. The

The Doctor Says
There are many interesting nH
important aspects of high blood
pressure or hypertension and dif.
ferent aspects of the problem are
discussed in this column from time
to time.
One of them which has recently
been brought to my attention is
whether an accidental fall or auto-
mooue accident can brine about
mgn blood pressure.
To tnls It can be said that in
the vast majority of cases there
is little reason to believe that an
accident of Injury has caused hv.
pertension. It is possible that once
m a wnue an accident may be
responsible for " bringing out the
symptoms resulting from high blood
pressure which were not obvious
oeiore.
As a direct cause, however a.
cident or injury seems unlikely.
Hypertension is an extremely
common disorder particularly after
the age of 40. It should be recog
nizee mat were are various kinds,
however, such as that which comes
irom a tumor of one of the hor
monal glands (the adrenal), that
which comes from kidney disease
and several other varieties.
The most Important and trouble
some one, however, Is called es
sential hypertension. In this variety
uie cause is siui not known al
though some important informa
tion on it is now available.
About the beginning of this cen.
tury. it was shown that a diet
wnich contained small amounts of
salt was helnful in some cases of
mgn oiooa pressure.
Further study of this clue vis
slow for many years, but re
cently many Investigators have
worked on the effect of diet both
in animals and in human belncs.
Some researchers have found
that the blood pressure of rats with
experimentally produced hyperten
sion could be lowered when these
animals were given diets which

In viewing the geological history
of life upon this earth we speak
of the present era as the "Age
of Man." There are some scientif
ic minds, however, who contend
I we are really in the "Age of In
sects. Whatever the age may be
celled, in point of numbers of in
dividuals and species, it is the In
sect which leads all other forms
ot animal life. To us humans, how
ever, we are not commonly aware
of these small creatures unless
they make a nuisance of them
selves. Perhaps the most noted of the
Insects considered beneficial to
man is the honey bee, and In our
literature there is a great deal
written about it. John Muir has
left an interesting thought of bees

along the bluffs and headlands
fronting the sea, over valley and
plain, park and grove, and deep
leafy glen, or far up the piny
slopes of the mountains through
out every belt and section of cli
mate up to timber line, bee flow

Here they grew more or less apart

wild rose, sheets of golden com

mint, beds of bryanthus and clov-
and so on, certain species
blooming somewhere all the year
around.
"The Great Central Plain of
California, during the months of
March, April and May, was one
smooth, continuous bed of honey-
bloom, so marvelously rich that.
in walking from one end of It to
the other, a distance of more than
400 miles, your foot would press
about a hundred flowers at every

positae were so crowded together

This treatment was tried also in

was found that the blood pressure
could be definitely reduced in some
of them.
Another group ot Investigators.
also using experimental animals,
found that a diet low In protein
(meat, eggs,- fish and the like)
and low in sodium would prevent
the high blood pressure which
took place in these animals if they
were not given tnis special diet.
such studies as these mav ex
plain the good results which have
been reported from some of the
special diets for high blood pres
sure such as the rice diet. It seems
likely that when good results have
actually occurred from auch special
diets it may be because of the
low amount of protein and low
amount of sodium or salt which
they contain.
The victim of high blood ores-
sure should not expect too much
irom diet treatment alone.
Nevertheless, work on this problem
is going iorwaro constantly and
the future may bring forth dietary
treatments for hypertension even
more effective than those which
are known today.

plain, they made no heavy divid

whole appeared as one continuous
sheet of bloom bounded only by
the mountains.
When I first saw this central
garden, the most - extensive and
regular of all the bee-pastures of
the State, It seemed all one sheet
of plant gold, hazy and vanishing
