Kellett spent two days touring Klamath Basin barley experi mental crops and commercial crops with Dr. John Parker, director of the Malting Barley Improvement Association, Mil waukie, Wisconsin. t THE HORSE liN'T OUT ALTOGETHER when the haying season rolls around as these pictures taken in Modoc County prove. The man in picture one is Pete Thomson, mowing with horses on the JD ranch owned by the Weber Brothers and located about six miles south of Alturas. All of these pictures were taken at the same ranch. Picture two shows Tex McCraery following up' with a horse drawn rake. Horses have shown up well in the raking operation, not being as fast as tractors but more maneuverable. Picture three shows Lloyd Lever at the wheel of a Jeep pulling a 25-foot scatter rake. Picture four shows Roland Robison driving a "ptterbug," a con verted car with a buck rake on the front. These nqs can attain a speed of sometimes 25 to 30 mph in the field and really speed up the op eration. The last picture shows the stacking op eration on the JD, done with a hydraulic lift on a tractor. John Weber is at the controls and Ed Rollins (left) and Guy DeForrest on the stack.

Firemen, Save My 'Guess What' The worm turned, lllerully. thanks to the city firemen Friday afternoon Two trucks rushed to 444 South Riverside in the afternoon to find fire at the worm farm ot Roy Nichols. A protective canvas over Uie worms had been set abluzc by spark from a fire in a nearby barrel. The firemen saved the worms and chalked up a new experience in lire lighting. Earlier In the afternoon another canvas fire had threatened River side School in the same area. A painter had dropped a cigarette on a tarpaulin over a coal bin. It was squelched before the flames had chance to spread. A third fire the same afternoon involved a pile of cedar shavings at the Troy V. Cook Company, 204U South Sixth Street. The Bhavlngs were next to the building, but the firemen doused the flames in time to prevent further damage. i PT ST Asks New Plant YREKA The Yreka city plan-, ning commission has decided to hold a public hearing on a pro posal of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company to build a switching plant In a residential area in Yreka. The hearing will be held Sep tember 21 at the Yreka city hall. The company proposes to con struct a building on North Oregon Street between Yama and Lennox streets, north of the business sec tion. The building would be a single story unit facing Oregon Street. Estimated cost is $100,000. Before it could be built, a home would have to be either torn down or moved to another site. Dr. A. H. Newton appeared at a preliminary meeting on the sub ject Wednesday to protest. New ton, owner of the adjacent lot, said that the area would be ruined as residential property. W. W. Kennerston of the PT&T engineering department told the commission that the building would be used as a central oil ice for switchboards and toll boards. There would be no business oflice, storage yard or other facilities at the location, and no heavy trucks would ever park there after it is built, he said. He said that the growth of the city appears to be northwest, and that the proposed location was se lected to obtain minimum costs of relocation of cables and other fa cilities, which in turn would re sult in a saving to the public. He said that cost of a location in a fringe area would be prohibitive.
