Braun on Beaver creek about 5 miles S.W. of Vernonia. Mr. Braun had formerly migrat­ ed from Germany and after being naturalized an American citizen took up a homestead on Beaver creek in the Nehalem Valley. Braunsport was discontinued as a post office on November 9, 1901 when its business and service was consolidated with the Ver­ nonia P. O. Johann Braun was its only Postmaster. The location of Braunsport is now the farm home of a son, Wil­ liam Braun and family. Mary Christensen, wife of Harvey Chris­ tensen is the daughter of the pi­ oneer postmaster. Braunsport was served with car­ rier on horseback from Vernonia over puncheon and dirt road, which was practically impassable in the winter. As postmaster, Braun received no salary as the only revenue was the cancellation of stamps. (Historical information and re­ search furnished by Lester Sheeley.) BACON C ountry Maid 1-Lb.

A N D A P L E A S U R E TO L IV E IN V E R N O N IA seen a postage stamp with a pic­ ture of a mosquito on its face. It’s an element in the United Nation’s effort to commemorate the World Health Organization’s battle against malaria, the deadly disease transmitted by the anopheles mo­ squito. The war against malaria, which, for the United States, has been won, continues relentlessly for most of the rest of the world. The disease continues to strike down millions of persons around the globe. Insecticides, the products of re­ search and industrial manufactur­ ing, are the major weapons to com­ bat mosquitoes. Through the use of these remarkable tools of sci- ence, along with recommended sanitary practices, malaria, and other diseases carried by pests, such as human encephalitis and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, are destined to become scourges of the past. Other nations are participating in this commemoration by issuing special stamps. Besides our own, we recently received special stamps from Nigeria, Indonesia, and the Maidive Islands. Henry van Zyle, assistant to the surgeon general for international health. United States Public Health Service, says. “The great­ est organized campaign of all ties in the campaign that the world had embarked upon, under the leader­ ship of the World Health Organi­ zation, to eradicate malaria from the face of the earth. . .The magic of insecticides makes this great concept possible. Their continued effectiveness is pushing it toward success.” M. G. Huber, OSU agricultural engineer, reports that a recent field investigation found 528 pres­ sure creosoted piles that supported 1939 New York World’s Fair peri- sphere completely sound. Offic­ ials of the 1964 World’s Fair plan to use them again as foudation for the huge Unisphere symbol which will remain as a permanent struc­ ture such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris. While pressure treated woods last longer home treated wood, us­ ing pentachlarophenol, “penta” for short, extends the life of native woods to 15-20 years.

This is especially true of the hormone type herbicides such as 2.4-D, 2.4,5-T, and silvex. Because there have been numer­ ous instances of loss of crops due to pesticide applications in ad­ jacent areas. Oregon statutes make provisions for damaged individuals to make claims against pesticide applicators or their employers. The law provides that a loss report be filed with the state department of agriculture prior to any investi­ gation of damage. The law also requires that a copy of such report be sent to the custom applicator and to the per­ son for whom such work was done. Such reports need to be filed with­ in 60 days of the time the damage occurred or was first noted. If a growing crop is involved the loss report needs to be filed before 50 percent of the crop is harvested. The revised statute also pro­ vides for a means of reporting a loss resulting from the application of pesticides by any state agency, county or municipality. The dam­ aged party shall file a report of loss with the state department of agriculture and send a copy of such report to the agency respons­ ible for the application. Forms to be used in reporting losses to the state department of agriculture are available from of­ fices of county extension agents. AST Handy carrying rack.
