Siskiyou Ranchers, Game Managers Agree Range Restoration Is Needed By PEGGY WALSH YREKA Deer for the hunter currently matter of statewide concern both on a Fish and Game Department and legislative level, takes on intensified Interest in Siskiyou County where the deer hunter' dollar Is an economic asset. Local game managers and lo cal ranchers agree with sports men that range restoration is im perative in Siskiyou County if iW are to be born, survive and arnw to maturity. An approach to the problem acceptable to the interests of all nromHl must be the Initial step, according to local rcprescn tatives of the Fish and Game De Dartment. Carroll Robison, Red Rock Valley rancher, thinks of deer in terms of his own experience while making a living in remote norm, eastern Siskiyou County. Robison pointed out last week that it would be a simple matter to remove1 cattle from certain Impoverished areas but that deer cannot be barred from specific areas without temporary herd re dnotinn - He told of planting 180 acres of crested wheat at Long Prairie on soil bank land as a ranee improve ment measure. He estimated a 50 per cent loss due to deer damage during a thaw and freeze period shortly after the seed had germinated. Destruction of (potential suste nance for deer was as great as any other loss, he pointed out. Albert Beck, another Kcd hock Valley rancher, said his deer losses were small during an open winter, but when natural forage was limited by deep snows, he had to protect his haystacks by padding them with straw. He said He docsn i gci upsei over deer depredation anymore than he does over deer hunters driving over his irrigation pipes. "It is something you have to put up with out here," he concluded. The Ralph LuU rancn locaiea in a mountain-enclosed area on Butte Creek, south of Macdoel, faces a different problem. Lutz feels it costs him as much to feed deer as it docs to feed cattle. He feels so strongly about it that he states he'd forfeit his crazing permits if the state Dc. partment of Fish and Game could guarantee the deer would stay on public lands. Friday.

He credits this change to over protection and feels cither-sex hunts would return the deer to the mountains where they belong. Lutz cited a recent loss of an $830 investment in seed and fer tilizer on 50 acres of alfalfa. He said the alfalfa grew to about five inches when a series of rains soft ened the ground. Deer cropping the tender growth pulled the en tire .planting up by the roots. He said deer-kill permits help the land of Dr. J. L. Price were actually the property of the forest service and the Ralph L. Smith Lumber Company. Officials staled Eichclberger, without criminal intent, cut 650; trees in government land and 375 in Smith property. Investigation is continuing.

Population figures, still under dispute by the council, can be checked by the highway depart ment according to the city clerk, Council passed an ordinance covering 15 feet of curbing in front of the office of Dr. L. Spo mcr. This will be limited to am bulance and emergency parking only. , These ranchers were interviewed last week by a parly headed by Harold Hcttema of Yrcka, Fish and Game Department assistant. The group consisted of Het tcma, Frank Melo of Mount Shas ta, local sportsmen; Ray Kite of McCloud, a member of the Citi zens Committee on Deer appoint ed by Mrs. Pauline Davis,' state legislator; Marian Bass of Duns muir, another interested person, and by this writer. The group spent the day talking to local ranchers and observing the Mt. Dome herd on the winter range. Hettcma explained recent Mt. Dome herd composition counts in dicate a fawn to doe ratio in the spring of 1960 was 115 fawns to 100 docs. This is considered a fairly good tawn drop. Summer losses cut the ratio to 49 fawns to 100 does. Survival patterns in 1959 showed a winter loss of 66 per cent. Range, wca tlier, predators and other contrib uting factors indicate this trend will continue. Therefore, a survival ratio of 19 yearling fawns to 100 does is expected this spring. This pattern could be improved through water and forage restoration programs, Hettcma said, but range recov ery cannot occur when deer de pletion continues year after year. Herd management is the solution offered by the Fish and Game Department. The ranchers inter viewed appeared willing to go along with the herd management program. j measure to cut $3.2 million from state and local taxes. The action came after repeated statements by Gov. Edmund G. Brown that there is no room lor a substantial reduction in siaie taxes this year. Broun supports only a measure that would exempt prescription drugs from the state sales tax ai a cost of $6.2 in revenue. Busterud said virtually every Republican in the lower cham ber, as well as some Democrats had sponsored his four tax relief measures. The major bill would allow tax payers to take a 10, per cent credit when the pay their 1961 taxes in 1962 at a cost to the state estimated at $27.7 million, Stimulus to Business "This will be a great stimulus if the recession continues to worsen, which I don't think it will," said Busterud. "I'm con vinced that there is going to be a rather dramatic upturn. A second proposal by Busterud goes somewhat lurther in the same field as the measure by Assemblyman Byron Rumford, D-Berkolcy, which Busterud sup ports. It would eliminate the state- sales tax from all prescription drugs and prosthetic devices such as artificial limbs and eye glass es. This would cost $9.3 million in slate taxes and $4.5 million in local taxes. Two other bills proposed by Busterud would cut the corpora tion franchise tax from $100 to $50 a year at a cost to the state of $3 million annually and cut from $50 to $20 the tax on issu ance of corporate securities at a cost of $500,000 a year to the state. Marks' hill would allow smok ers to deduct from their federal and state income taxes the three cents a pack tax on cigarettes. This was estimated to cost the state and local governments $3.2 million a year in taxes and would save the consumers $8.7 million in federal taxes. Other Reductions Proposed Busterud, chaiiman of the Re publican Assembly Caucus, gave a strong hint that these bills prob ably won't be all of the tax trim ming program pushed during the 1961 session by Republicans, He said he favored bills by Sen. James McBride, D-Ventura, dean of the legislature, which would make stale income taxes conform with federal taxes at a cost of $5 million a year. Other developments in the leg islature: Pensioners: Assemblyman Phil lip Burton, D-San Francisco, in troduced legislation to increase the special need allowance for old age pensioners from $20 to $70 a month. The bill had support of Governor Brown. Education: Legislators say they are looking more and more to federal government to help pay state's hui:e school bill; Adminis tration will ask for $51 million increase in school aid but experts admit they don't know how it can be financed from state funds. - Unemployment: Sen. Stanford WEED - College of the Siski- yous governing board approved preliminary plans for a five classroom addition during a meet ing this week. The plans were submitted by Redding architect Allyn Martin. Board members discussed the plans with their building inspec tor, Bryce Rohrer, Montague, and Edward Athcy, a general contrac tor from Yrcka. The board also examined and discussed results of a recent pub lic opinion survey to determine feasibility of raising $1,375,000 for college expansion through a bond issue. The poll indicated that res- C.'Shaw, D-Ontario, accused Re miblian Richard J. Dolwig of needless delay in postponing for one wecK a Hearing on an ur gency bill to extend unemploy ment insurance benefits for 13 more weeks to areas of the state hit by the recession. The delay, Shaw said, may lead to some un employed going hungry before the bill can become law. "TMrdical care: An extended pro gram to give medical care to the aged was announced by Sen. Joseph Raltigan, D-Santa Rosa. Rattigan said the bill is endorsed by Governor G. Brown. It would extend state aid to all Californi ans over 65 whose average month ly income does not exceed the maximum state old age pension, plus the cost of medical care. idents of the junior college dis trict might now favor the meas ure. A bond Issue for $2,940,000 was turned down 3,757 votes to 3,684 during an election in 1958. An accreditation team on the campus last week recommended that the district pass a bond is sue to finance immediate con struction of all basic college fa cilities needed, rather than build the facilities piecemeal. When the bond issue failed pre viously, present facilities were built from accumulated tax funds to accommodate 200 students. At the beginning of the school's second year of operation last fall, a total of 207 was enrolled. The opinion survey was in form of sample ballots. A total of 1,027 was sent out and 391, or 38 per cent, returned. Of them, 64 per cent was in favor just under the two thirds majority necessary to pass a bond election. PURSUE GUERRILLAS ALGIERS.
