It was a highly interesting affair, giving the history of the place dur ing the past 80 years or so, but no neat recipe could I find. Detailed instructions on how to prepare Boston baked beans (made with California pea beans), baked Indian pudding, tea cake, blueberry cake and corn bread, and a detailed description of the proper methods of making old fashioned apple pie. There was also a recipe for apple pandowdy, but I don't think I'll try It at the moment.' ' . At any .rate I'm glad to see mat and hat- is both day, an C.

JORDAN, M.D. - "My problem is body Itching," writes H. M. "It is better than It was live years ago but still not well. I use skin oil which gives some relief but I would like to cure It." ' The attitude expressed in this letter is discouraging no matter bow much one sympathises with the writer. One would think that nearly everyone knows that itching can result from a large number oi alt. terent causes' and that inexperi enced self-treatment is not only un likely to cure but mignt allow me underlying condition to go on to a point where it was more difficult to treat than it would have been st the beginning. Some people Itch all over after bathing. The sensation may last up to a half an hour or more, but is relieved after the clothes are on for a while. The skin has an entirely normal appearance, winter Itch is a close ly related condition in -which peo ple complain of severe Itching all over the body when undressing for the night or just after retiring. It is absent when the weather is mild. The skin appears normal ex cept for whatever scratch marks ma v be nresent. The seven-year itch, or scabies, Is another cause of skin itching Which must be considered. This type of Itching comes from a parasite which burrows into the skin. Treatment for scabies Is aimed -at destroying the parasites. ' Lice always causes Itching. Here also the treatment of the Itch Is not merely to apply some lotion' but to get rid of the animals which re causing the trouble. In eczema, which is likely to be a result of long-continued contact of the skin with irritating substan. ces. the skin condition and Itch be come chronic. Redness, thickening. cracking and crusting of the skin occur and the itching may be ex tremely hard to relieve. Hives, or urticaria, 15 a source of severe Itching. This Is an al lergic condition and the diagnosis can be made easily by the sudden appearance of raised reddish spots accompanied by an irresistible de sire to scratch. Itching of the skin may acconv pany such diseases as diabetes, nephritis or Brlght's disease, and especially jaundice. Indeed, in most forms of laun dice, the Itching of the skin which is one at the symptoms, is nartlc. ularly distressing and extremely funiculi to relieve. ' ' Since these are only a few of (he many doss ble causes of itch. lng it is obvious that no one lo tion or ointment will always cure or even relieve, : In severe or long lasting cases of Itching the cause must be de termined before the proper treat ment can be applied.

And they really send your thoughts zooming out ot aoors. . , ., Speaking of hunting reminds us that the squirrel hunting has been good this year, utile different than some other years in that you have to shoot around the real estate signs. But basically the same old deal. 'And the little diggers are around in abundance this year. You can near them piping all over, i them running up the dusty roads ana sliding tneir heads up over me snort grass. Big game hunters may sneer at tne lowiy digger squirrel, out oft hand we don't know of a better way to improve your shooting eye than oy squaring on at a reasonable range on these little fellow. A five inch gopher at 190 yards makes a very sporting target. , And if you're like I am you can go home and have a lot of fun think ing, about all .those near hits you scored.- i . ' Fighting fire with fines depart ment: In case you didn't know It, the fine for throwing a lighted match, cigaret or burning material of any kind on any forest land, pri vate road, public highway or rail road right of way is $75. According to section 107-233. OCLA, as amend ed, or ORS 477.164.. . ' ' ... -' It seems like a light fine for an offense that may run into hundreds or thousands of dollars in -cost. There are a good many laws on the books today which we consider out moded, silfy. useless, stupid -and as Interfering with, our individual rights as Americans. But the fire prevention restric tions are not included in this cate gory, -and if the state sees fit to make even stlffer penalties and reg ulations we'll cheerfully go along with 'em. i ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL by KEN McLEOD In the great Klamath Country there are innumerable places lor one to spend a long weekend such as was afforded by the three day holiday of the past Fourth ot July. Ken and Edith McLcod chose to spend those precious days tit one of our incomparable' recreational areas The Mount Shasta Rec reation Area administed by the U.S. Forest Service. An area that possessed great beauty and charm, and, a few years ago, because of the growing public demand that outstanding mountain areas be pre served from commercial exploita tion In 19M was set aside by the Secretary of Agriculture as a Rec reation Area dedicated to trie use and enjoyment of , the American public. However, within the 29.620 acres of land that is occupied by the Recreation area's crowuing glory Mount Shasta there were stands of virgin forests to whet the appetite of human cupidity; be sides., the great Recreation area possessed Its Achilles' heel and for 'this reason we bog In to Use the past tenso In our description. All the land was not controlled by the federal government but was shared In checker board fashion with a great Railroad System w h 1 o h spends many hundreds of thou sands ot dollars In advertising tha beauties of California to the people of the East. From the earliest period ot oc cupation of white man in the re gion the great mountain has stood as a challenge to man and each year several hundred make their way to Its snow clad summit. This Fourth of July some 1i people hiked their way lo Horse Camp at Umber line and of whom 40 or SO made the attempt to ascend the mountain, a Iremenduous wind storm the velocity of which ranged upwards to M miles an hour pre vented all but 16 or 17 of the hard iest mountaineers from reaching the summit. In 1963 the Forest Service start ed the construction of a highway climbing the mountain from Mount Shasta City toward timber Una and ending at a delightful camp ground known as Panther Meatlowa at ail elevation of 7,(100 feel. This high way passed through some ot the most Interesting of the stands of virgin Shasta Flra In the area and has been dedicated the John 8. Kverltt Memorial Highway 111 memory to the Forest supervisor who lost his life while Hunting a lorest fire In 1934. In our little safari Into the wild wood of the Mount Shasta area took us on a swing around the mountain, taking the Old Military Road nt Andslle on highway 97 we drove over the eastern shoulder of the mountain and down through a stretch of several miles of the great virgin forest that was ao warmly spoken of by Joaquin Mil ler and John Mulr, The road was rough and clogged with down tim ber, so we detoured In many places, often the detours were pre ferable to the roadway Itseit at sun down we reached the bridge on Ash Creek It miles from highway 97 and here to our dismay found the bridge posted as belne "un. safe" and the road over which we came "Impassible." In the gath ering darkness we decided to camp and decide what to do the follow day. This spot forma one ot the delightful campgrounds In the vir gin forest besides the rippling orooK ot aso urees. The next day after examining the bridge we decided tho Forest Serv ice had been motivated by penal mlsllo caution, true tho condition of the bridge was bad, but then we had been over worse and as we expected It did not collapse be hind us. From Ash Croek the rnnd selected wandered through the Im penetrable and unique brush stands that follow tho slashing of the for ests from the busc of Hie moun tain. Crossing PHilrlm Creek the road winds on to Widow Springs. Widow Springs appears to be a popular recreation suol and beats Some semblance to a bed ground or a nana oi sheep, The road leads on to the town of McCloud where the McCloud River Lumber Company Is constructing a mill pond that will be one of the wonder objects of the Lumber Industry, Its immense. . From McCloud the trail leads up la Horse Camp near Panther Meadows, lit tlio Bluinta Reureatloii Area. In Ilia horse and buggy days this must have been a womlerlul drive but with the Umber alrlpped Irom tho lower slopes ol the nimui tain It Is nothing more llinn a practically abandoned lint dusty climb tluuuith the lauds cut over probably around the turn of the century and. then you ell Ike the welcome shade of the virgin fir forest, tlut they loo now have vanished lor In a lightning alrlke at the raoreutlon area tho cupidity of man has fastened a blot upon the face of Bhasta that la even worse than tire for tire usually makes a clean sweep of the area of its conquest. But here, cupidity abetted by the consent of the great Railroad has left a heritage of wreckage that must be seen lo be apprecia ted for the destruction struck Into tho very heart of the wilderness In I ho worst high-handed fatililou out! cullotis disregard fur the rati, rrallonal values destroyed.' After all what lourlst riding the Shasta Uuylluht aa it flasliea past the iiiuuiiluln can nil Hill his eyes lo sea the destruction that was wrought, bonldnK, railroads don't climb Urn motiiiliiln'a helglitn. Perhaps the few dollars gulned front the sale of land and Umber has gone Into inoro advertising of tl)o wonders of (lie scenio landncape of the great stale of California.
