This isn't reference to the statement boll) from Fish and Wildlife and Ducks Unlimited thai there are the more birds than any year since 19i2. It Is in spile ol the fact that the season will open here after the peak of bird con centration has passed. That magic will come Irom opening the season a half hour before sunrise rather than in the blare of a noonday sun. li s not a question of getting a limit of birds.

When 23 years of ad vrangllng has instilled a sort of proprietary feeling in a fellow To continue with the "Walton" plan for meeting the agricultural problem by having the federal government lease crop land and place it in a conservation reserve and take it out of production In order that production can be brought into line with currenl de mand. George L. Hockenyos, chair men of tile lzaak Walton Leauue'3 X-and Use Committee explained how his group thought land should be classified under this program as loilows; "This need would be determined largely by classiiying the land un der the Soil Conservation Service's nysloni of classification.

"Keeping in mind that we wish to placo tho land most In need ol restoration into the conservation rcscrvo we multiply the, fair cash rental value figure by the following lactors; Class Uland 60 per cent; Class 3, 10 per cent; Class 3. 80 per cent; class 4. 90 per cent, and Classes & to 8, 100 per cent. We thus have a scale of rental prices that gives little or no Inducement to the man with Rood loud to place It In the conservation joscrvc. We give a progressively holier Induce ment to the men with progressively lower value land because with poor r land mere is more eroding.

THE GOVERNOR ol Rotary ciuba of this district who wus here last week, Alton Baker, is a tugenc newspaperman, publisher of the Register - Uuard. He's better known here for Boy Scout work than for nowsnapenng nr Rotarv club work, however We've Just learned that he is one of two men In the paciuc norm- west who has received the Silver Buli'alo scouting award and Is national director of Boy Scouts ol America. The report Is that he and Ezra Talt Benson always sit together Ihe only two "poor men'' on the Scout council. Our observation Is that men who devote that much time to public service cannot be "poor men. this plan a man would get enough lor taking the land out of cultiva tion so lhat he could afford to put It into forest and pay Ihe local taxes. He would not have to have any special tax legislation. He would get enough to pay the taxes and perhaps a small Interest on his Investment. So, although it has not oeen discussed very much, I think the possibilities of this pro gram in reforestation are quite in triguing. The secretary of agriculture couio, in cases 01 drought or other emergencies, permit limited graz ing or hay crouDing for the nerlod ol the emergency.

You would have local reserve for emerirenev times.

'If it become apparent thnt this program was going to be placed imo ciicci mere might be oppor tunists eager to buy up cheap land to be placed in the program.

Kelly, ao6 5 Ava, NSIVVORKI, VET'S MAI LB AG Out of every dollar of federal government expenditure for the coming year, only six per cent wll be spent in behalf of veterans. This figure is determined by a study showing distribution of the four billion dollars appropriated by the Congress for the operation of Veterans Administration during the currenl fiscal year. A study of the money shows that out of every dollar spent by the VA, 77 cents will go directly into the pockets of veterans and their dependents or their beneficiaries. This amount Is In the form of cash benefits authorized by the laws of the Congress. Included Irr that category are dis ability compenslon and pension payments, training allowances un der the Ol Bill, death compensa tion, and the like. Slightly more than 17 cents is spent for hospital and medical care of veterans the finest care possible to give anywhere. A small fraction of that 17 cents Is spent for VA medical research, that has proved such a boon to good medi cine, not only for veterans but for all of us who are served by the American medical profession. Each gain made by VA medical research Is placed at the disposal of the American public through our meaicai proicssion. Another one per cent of the VA dollar goes for hospital construction SAM DAWSON NEW YORK ( Seems the drinking habits of Americans aren't as uniform as are their TV viewing or movie-going folk ways. Tastes and Indulgences In en tirely Innocent forms of elbow bending, let's hasten to add vary from section to section, and change markedly from year to year., New Englanders are likely to lmolbe more eolfee, tea, fruit and vegetable Juices in a day than any olher variety of American. In the South they down more soft drinks, milk, and chocolate milk than anywhere in the land. Out West, they drink more restaurant coffee per person. And In the Southeast Instant coffee has Its greatest appeal. All this was gleaned from a beveraso survey." This Is an age of surveys, with not even one's subconscious any longer private. So perhaps It's Inevitable that a tally is taken of what liquid, and how much, Americans swallow on a "typical day." With all surveys it s a wise Idea lo know for whom the poll-taker tolls and why. This look at non alcoholic beveraRe quaffing was made by a professional firm for the Pan American Coffee Bu reau. And 8.000 persons were quer ied as to what, if anythlnc, they'd had besides water the day belore. If you re wondering whether the survey was ordered because the 'importation of colfer beans fell ofl Mter the price went up a couple of years back, the bureau says, no, this Is Just the lilth In a scries of beverage studies. The Department of Agriculture, also cui'lous about collee drlnkinR, chimes In with the estimate thai this year Americans will buy about 15 7 pounds apiece one more pound than last year but still one pound less .than in 1953 before the price went up. Since Ihr collee bureau's pre vious survey, a year sro. drinking ol roflee In the home has gone up six per cent. The bureau reports thai most cups per person are quailed at home In the northwest central rertlon: Minnesota, Iowa. Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and North and South Dakota. Housework is the occupation Uiat inspires most such tnibtbini! al most three cups a day per house wilr. Droves of people apparently cut down on their drinking ol colfer In rrstaurams.

One reason might be that while in 1950 only about one-third of thr rating places chareed 10 cents a cup. now three fourths of them do and some ol ihr otnrr fourth charsr morr Factory worker nverasr about one half cup of coffee each on the Job.

And finally, lour and slx-tenlh3 cents, a small enough sum, goes lor administration -- the actual running of the Veterans Admini stration business. That's a manage. mcnl record VA is proud to plncej against any olher comparable r-.c-tivit? , and never-ending studies e.re made to bring the cost of ad ministration even lower. Veterans Administration cares for veterans of all wars, their de pendents and beneficiaries through the administration of compensation and pension laws; guardianship of incompetent veterans and of minor children; it operates a GI loan guaranty program; a vocational rehabilitation and education pro gram, and the world's largest med ical department, with more than 100.000 patients in 162 hospitals providing medical care and medi cal rehabilitation for eligible vet erans. Question of the week: Q I am going to school under Ihe Korean GI Bill. Would I also be entitled to a GI loan to buy a house? A. You would be entitled to a GI loan, even though you are in school under the Korean GI Bill provided your lender will make the loan. The law does not pro hibit simultaneous use of both bene fits. ' able on the premises, and a fifth more are allowed to go out for It. Two-thirds of those queried say on-the-job eolfee is either free or of unknown cost. Instant coffee continues to gain, with brcaklast consumption now averaging out nation-wide at about one sixth of a cup a person. The highest consumption, one half cup a person, is reported In the South cast set forth In Ihe survey as Delaware. Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia. North and South Carolina, Oeorgia and Florida. The survey says adults are drinking more and adolescents less than formerly. The greatest Im bibers nre those in Iheir 30s, with an averaee of three and b half cups a day. It's In the 30s that folK are mostly likely to acquire mortgages and other monthly pay ments. New Enjlanders seem lo have the greatest capacity and to favor more than one type of beverage each day. Of those Interviewed 81 per rent had downed a cup or more of coffee the day before: one half had taken tea; one half had fruit and vegetable Juices; and al most as many had consumed milk or chocolate milk. Apparently they mix their drmks there. Cnrbonated drinks have wide ap peal, wilh the states of Kentucky, Tennessee. Alabama and Missis sippi leading as a group. There 39 per cent reported Imbibing bubble water Ihe previous day. Other southern slates were runners up. with almost as big on intake per nerson. Milk has the Rtealcst appeal in the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas, where 54 per cent had taken at least one glass tho day before. Runners up were the northern dairy states, where one half the people had favored thr home product. But In every section If you ran believe the coffer bureau Ihr brrw of the bean is the top favorite.

JORDAN, M.D. T.ie first two questions today deal with what are probably en tirely different disorders' around the knee joint, Q I have something wrong with my knee which I believe Is known as "housemaid's knee." Would you :SV Rnmo' 'lino- ahnllt tha miico am 1 wnat can be done for it? Mrs. H.F A There Is a sort of cavity known as a bursa lying in front of the knse joint called the prepa tellar bursa. This bscomes in flamed easily from the irri.ation of repealed or prolonged kneeling. Its chronic form is comnuuly spoken of as "housemaid's knee." When the condition is chronic the best treatment is to remove the entire lining or sack and the trou ble, thereafter, seldom returns. Q I am 18 years old. Seven years 'ago I fell and bumped my kneecap on a rock. X-rays show no trace of broken bones but since then I may just be walking along and my knee gives way. Each time this happens my knee swells and hurts badly so that I have to stay in bed and keep it wrapped in hot towels. Would you discuss this please? S.L. A This could be a recurring bur sitis resulting from the injury but it is possible also that the fall years ago resulted in what is known as a derangement of the ligaments. In any event, the con dition seems to be troublesome enough so that an orthopedic surgeon might be consulted and the possibility of surgery consid ered: Q Having worked for the past 10 years on concrete floors and steel decks, I have a condition of "tired feet" after work. What can you suggest for this? B.A.T. A It does seem as though there was ample reason to have diffi culty with the feet. Possibly the arches are broken down and you might need special shoes and other treatments. If this 4s not the case, perhaps well fitted shoes with thick crepe rubber soles would be help ful. Also, the use of contrasting hot and cold foot baths at night might greatly relieve the dis comfort. Q I have a friend who is In his late twenties who, for some rea son, has never been able to learn to read and spell. He has tried hard but just can't seem to re member. He can count, drive a car, and do any kind of jnechani cal work. He can undeiland di rections of any kind that are read to him and go ahead nnd do the work. Do you think he needs a psych. atr t? K.B. A There would seem to some kind of mental defiiVncy or retardation in this young man. who evidently is highly competent in some directions. One would cer tainly think that a diagnosis should be made by a psychiatrist. Q I have recently been told that. I have a dropped intestine. What does this mean and what is Uie cause and treatment? E.J.M. A There is considerable varia tion in the position of the intes tines inside the abdominal cavity depending largely on the general body structure. The diagnosis of "dropped intestine" is made fur less often toda.v than it was in the past. Probably no treatment what ever is needed. Q Does the American Medical Association make the laws for the whole nat ion or a re these laws controlled by each state? Don't the states have their own medical laws? Mrs. W. A The American Medical Assoc iation is a voluntary organization of dociw.s which has no powers whatever to make laws, either na tionally or locally. The laws gov erning the practice of medicine In the United States are made by the individual state legislatures us ually m the form of a medical I prRctice act . SUNDAY vv W"l fl ".

Dunsmuir Council Approves Budget At Wednesday Meet DUNSMUIR The Dunsmuir city council adopted a budget, de clined the role of Investigating body and opened bids for the But terfly street bridge in a decision packed meeting on Wednesday night. Following a motion by James Haley, the council adopted the budget as originally submitted with a 15 per cent across the board cut to bring proposed ex penditures In line with estimated income. The budget thus adopted amounts to (141,606 Instead of the originally considered (166,000. Councilman Robert Dickson said he felt that fire and garbage de partments could not absorb the 15 per cent reduction but finally con ceded to the motion as the only possible solution. Upon being requested by Walter Saunders, Dunsmuir filling station manager, for a report on a com plaint he brought before the coun cil at Its last meeting, Mayor Fred I.loyd read a prepared statement. He said that the council is not con stituted as an Investigating body, does not receive testimony under oath and has no strong powers of 100 Taft Kin Honor Forbears WP.R'JDGE, Mass..

Councilman Richard Renaud In troduced a resolution that anv charges against any city employe be handled by a duly constituted investigating body, the grand jury. Walter Sunders objected. He felt the council should dismiss Officer Cliff Schwegerl on the basis of a statement he presented accusing Schwegerl of petty pilfering at the Greyhound Bus Depot last year. The statement was signed by L. Kathryn Bommelyn who worked at thr bus depot a few months in 1954. Councilman Robert Dickson, who has subjected the police depart ment to a number of investiga tions during the last six months, also objected to the resolution.
