DUNSMUIR - A 30-ycar Lions
Club pin was presented to Robert
L. Colthart, retired school teach
er, and a $1,000 gift Irom Frank
Basiomb to the Community Youth
Building was announced at the
40th anniversary celebration o( the
Dunsmuir Lions Club Saturday
night.
Frank Bascomb, a long time
resident now seriously ill in the
Bay Area, donated $1,000 to com
plete the Community Youth Build

Jump Noted
In Lava Bed
Visitations
Superintendent Irvin Kerr of the
Lava Beds National Monument,
near Tulelake. reported that each
year, more and more people are
visiting the spectacular features
of the monument, which include
unusual volcanic lava formation,
ice caves, the Modoc Indian War
historic scenes, and pre-historic
Indian pctroglyphs and picto
graphs. More people are, also, observing
and photographing the variety of
wildlife in and around the monu
ment than ever before. Kerr stat
ed that 12 public use resulted in
K9.204 visits, which amounted to a
three per cent increase over the
67.322 visits of 1961.
Kerr said the majority of visits
occurred during the summer
months with 8.269 in June; 15.517
in July, 13,081 in August; and 8,361
in September. Winter visits during
December, January, and March
were normal with slightly less
than 2,000 for each of those
months. He observed, however.
that an unusually low number of
visits occurred in February (1962)
when ground thawing made grad
ed roads difficult to travel.
Kerr added that picnicking dur
ine the spring, autumn, and win
tcr appears to be a growing fam
ily outdoor activity at the monu
ment. He pointed out that the mon
ument is open and accessible the
vear-aiound. and, because it is us
ually irce of snow, more families
and oilier groups have been enjoy
ing outdoor picnics throughout the
year in combination with their vis
its to the many interesting features
ni the monument.
Kerr slated that a startling 34
per cent increase in camping
occurred during 1!3 with 4.651
camper days recorded at the In
dian Well Campground near Mnn
ument Hratlquartcrs. Statistics in
dicated that c.tinpcrs stayed long
er tluin during previous seasons
Kerr emphasized the popularity
o( the new summer interpretive
programs which were presented
each evening at the campfirc cir
cle and on weekends in Mushpnt
( ave near the Ranger Station
Summer visitors numbering 3.838
enjoyed colored slides
which esplamed the origin of the
volcanic formations, traced the
dramatic events of the Modoc In
dian War of 1872-73. and illustrat
ed the plains and wild animals of
(he monument.
Kerr explained that these in
formative programs were extreme
ly well received by visitors and
undoubtedly contributed to the
larger1 number of visits and camp
ing during the year.

iency is increasingly important
when it comes to increasing

more important than improving
soil fertility.

ages enlarge here it will be im
portant to select crops of advan
