But Santa's attire, a fashion which has hardly changed in all my memories, is pretty well set for the season. e One of Christmastime's sweet est traditions is 1 the Jolly old gent who symbolizes Riving. And one of the age-old tricks the young sters have learn ed in an attempt to "politic" a little more into the Christmas sock is the glass of warm milk left by the fireside for Santa. But rather a trick, it's usually a ges ture of genuine love from the young ones providing for a friend they hafe never really seen some thing which they feel is the best. If you are playing Santa Claus yourself, better take them up on such an offering. It's worth its weight in go!d to your heaiiii, and to your well-being. And If you're smart, too, you'll make that the start of a milk habit, if you've not already got one. The experts recommend , grownups, too, should be drinking ' milk three glasses of milk every day. e - Among the spectators at the nations ball games, we note, brouns were the most predom- f innte colors. Take note at basketball game this season and see if reds don't Health to brighten up a dreary winter make their usual strong showing time scene. , And take it from me, drink three glasses of milk every day, and every dreary scene will take on new color and brightness.

I mu II Sruae MM Ph. 2-2586 ! Tulelake Farmers Conduct Drainage Problem Meeting TULELAKE A mestlng was held In the Marcha Theater In Tu leiakc on Tuesday. December 13. for the purpose of discussing the drainage and soil salt accumula tion problem of the Tu'.elake gov ernment lease lands. Tnis- meeting was called by Koy Edwards, Tule Ine farm adviser. Dr. James Luth in of the Irrigation Department, and Ken Baghott, farm adviher of the University of California, Davis. Dr. Lulhin, working cooperative ly with the U.S. Bureau of Recla mation and the Agriculture Exten sion Service, is making a study .of the drainage and salt accumulation In the soil of the Prog Pond, League of Nations, and Souihwes'. Sump. Lulhin reported to the large group of farmers present: that the salt accumulations in certain areas of these lands has reached severe proportions during the growing sea son. This is due to the rise of water from the water table by capillary action. Ten water stage, recorders were installed in the lease lands to give a continuous record of the water table situation. An additional 30 water table observation wells were read once a week to give a rather complete picture cf this situation. Soil samples were collected three times during 1955 growing season I to check salt accumulations. These samples were analyzed In the lab oratories ot the University of Cali fornia at Davis. The analysis shows (hat the ac cumulation of salt in the soil sur face layers is definitely becoming a problem on lease lands. In sev eral locations the salts are suf ficiently concentrated to cause re- duced crop yields or even crop failure. ; On the basis ot Uie samples col-! lected from the 40 sampling spots it is not possible to make specific I comments about any particular lease. Salt accumulations may vary i from place to place in any one I field, but the problem Is becoming Increasingly severe. , Both Luthln and Bagbott pointed out that if the drainage situation is not corrected soon, the salt will accumulate to a point where noth ing will grow on the land. They urged that if proper drainage could be provided these salts could be leached from the soils out through the drains. Both men mentioned that adequate subsurface drainage Is the first step in the solution of the problem. The present ditches are not deep enough to provide this drainage. Ditches should be deepened, kept free from obstruc tion, and the water level by kept down. Dr. Luthln mentioned that since ihe soil of the area is auite Derme- tble, it" should be relatively easy to remove all of the salt with one or two teachings after sufficient drainage was provided.
