Jesse Guernsey
finds 102 years
no big problem
By LOWELL G. RINKER
Editor
Jesse Guernseywas 102 years
old Tuesday. He's outlived three
sisters, two brothers and two
wives, and for several years now
he's been recognized as the
oldest man in Clinton County.
His answer to the inevitable
question, *To what do you attribute your longevity?" is another question-exclamation.
"Why is it that I live so long?l
I don't know exactly why it Is.
But the Lord isn't going to let
me die, not yet, for awhile."
Guernsey, still hardy looking
and spry for a man in his second
century of life, .said he got the
message in a dream that "I've
got to stay a little while longer.

If anything, Guernsey's health
is getting better. He remembered
he had a bad shaking spell about
three years ago, and he almost
died. "Butl'vebeengettingbetter
ever since."
GUERNSEY'S A MAN with a
still-firm handshake who can get
up and move easily around his
room. He's been a resident of
the Rlvard Nursing Home for a
little over four years, and he
takes part in most all of the
activities there.
He was looking forward to a
trip back to Matherton, his home
area, on his birthday T u e s d a y ,
and this weekend he hopes to
get up to Hubbardston to help the
folks there celebrate that community's 100th anniversary. His
sharp mind can recall a lot of the
events of the early days In that
area.
The Matherton area has been
Guernsey's stomping grounds for
most of his life. He was a cooper,
a lumberman and a farmer there.
He was school president for five
or six years and for one term was
the sheriff at Matherton.
•But I'didn't like that kind of a
job," he said. *I don't like a job
where you have to go and take
people's stuff."'
That phase of the lawman's job
rubbed against Guernsey's grain.
He was more likely to be doing
things for people, and when he
was lumbering on his farm east
of Matherton he'd permit poor
people to cuttheirownwoodfrom
his timber.
Guernsey was born June 18.
1866, in Swegle County, N.Y.,
along the shores of Lake Ontario.
His family moved from Hannibleville, N.Y., to Michigan when
he was 12 years old. He remembers that event well.
«WE MOVED BETWEEN
Christmas and New Year's, and
when we got on the train In New
York there was two feet of snow
on the ground. When we got off
at Lyons there wasn't any snow
on the ground and the grass was
green. We didn't have much of a
winter that year." '

Red Cross
Bloodm'bile
here 26th
A critical shortage of blood at
the Red Cross Regional Blood
Center In Lansing is adding impetus to the local drive'for a big
turnout at the semi-annual bloodmobile In St. Johns next Wednesday.
The bloodmobile wiU be setup
from noon to 6 p.m. June 26 at
the St. Johns Municipal Building
a't the c o r n e r of W a l k e r and
Spring streets.
Mrs Mary Crosby, chairman of
the bloodmobile committee here,
said the regional blood center is
short 1,100 pints of blood compared to what was d o n a t e d
throughout the region at this
time last year. The St. Johns
bloodmobile will be the final one
of the fiscal year and the last
donations to apply toward the
quota.
ADDING TO THE problem is
the expected heavy drainonblood
s u p p l i e s over the upcoming
Fourth of July holiday when highway traffic and resultant accidents increase.
Recent changes in blood donor
qualifications make it possible
for more people to give blood
than might previously have be&i
able, Mrs Crosby said.
Donors may now be recruited
up u n t i l their 61st birthday,
making the age limitations 18
through 60. A woman may now
donate blood six months following
pregnancy, whereas the waiting
period used to be 12 months.
For some months a "back-up"
test has been used ondonorswho
do not pass a copper sulphate
Related story on Page 2-A
hemoglobin estimation test. The
backup test has disclosed that
about 50 per cent of donors previously rejected for this reason
are now acceptable, and Mrs
Crosby urged formerly-rejected
donors to come in again.
No specific goal has been established for the number of pints
of blood to be c o l l e c t e d . Mrs
Crosby pointed out that despite
the terrific need for blood, vacation time will probably cut into
the numbers of people who are
around and available as donors.
PREVIOUS BLOOD donors will
be called in a bloodmobile telethon next Tuesday night, just
prior to the bloodmobile. General
Telephone Co. has again offered
the use of its business office in
St. Johns as a base for a group
of volunteers.
The canteen at next week's
bloodmobile will be manned by
ladies from the First Baptist
Church.

Big weekend set as
Hubbardston marks
100th birthday
By CLAUDIA McLOUGHLIN
News' Staff Writer
Settled In the very northwest
corner of Clinton County, at the
end of a winding road, on the bank
of a peaceful river is Hubbardston.
That quiet little village will
take a step back into history this
weekend when it celebrates its
100th birthday.
The town is like, a page out of a
history book. Main street is composed of a line of buildings that
look like they could all tell some
pretty good stories of what life
was like 100 years ago. But, the
sturdy facades hold their ages
well. The store' keepers have
their buildings decorated for the
celebration, although the rustic
beauty of the village needs little
more to put the townspeople In the
atmosphere of a centennial.
The river seems like one of the
few in the country that are not
polluted. C r y s t a l waters flow
under the early 1900's iron bridge
over the dam In psuedo-f alls past
an old mill. Boys fishing bring'to
mind Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer.
Overlooking the village, like a
protectorate, Is St. John the Baptist Church with her high steeple.
Even the cemetery behind ''the
church shows bits of history with
all the Irish names like Fitzpatrick, Gallagher, Hogan and
many more. •
The gentlemen seem to walk
with a special gait. The additional signs of masculinity which enhance their appearances, like
s i d e b u r n s , beards, and mustaches, are worn with the utmost
pride. ^
Ladies' skirts swish and the
ladies, too, seem to have a more
genteel manner than one is accustomed to. B r i g h t smiling
faces are framed by gingham
bonnets and children are fascinated 'by their own "olden days*
dress. The sidewalks, too, must
feel somewhat reminiscent, for
several pair of feet are clad In
dated shoes.

After about eight years, they
moved back to Matherton and
went on a 40-acre farm a half

Dean recommends charter commission for city
Move follows second citizens

A recommendation for a charter commission to write a new
city charter and a renewed plea
for a positive thinking on city
operations came out of a meeting
last Wednesday night called by
St. Johns businessman Al Dean.
• Only 38 people turned out for
the session, but they got concentrated doses of information
from three speakers — County
Equalization D i r e c t o r Lorenz
(Tony) Tiedt, Mayor's Finance
Committee member Ink White
and City Treasurer" Eugene Simon.
Dean made his recommendation for a charter commission
near the end of the two-hour
meeting and said a steering committee will be appointed soon
to get plans started. He said
he couldn't continue to run an
organization alone for that purpose, and he said the steering
committee would be made up of
a thorough cross-section of community members,He renewed his plea for positive citizen participation in government, saying the city Is "us,
not them." Last Wednesday's
meeting, the second of a series,
was aimed solely at providing
information, one of the purposes
of the sessions. Dean said he

years from 25 per cent of full
valuation to 50 per cent of cash
value. He said he thought the Yoh
appraisal ln< 1966 was a good
one and that a State Tax Commission spot check the same
year came up with figures generally the same as Yoh's.
Tiedt said St, Johns'assessing
procedures have been relativley
a c c u r a t e , judging by the Yoh
"figures. Assessments after the
Yoh reappraisal were up only
3.06 per cent overall although
' residential assessments went up
13.09 per cent and coirimerclal
assessments dropped 11.22 per
cent.
The city valuation Increased
only a little over $700,000 as a
result, Tiedt said, compared to
a county-wide Increase of about
$19 million.
The increased assessments
resulted in very little tax increase for the city, commented
Ray Kentfield, former city commissioner. Dick Kohls, another
person in the audience, commented that a lot of the increase
In valuation ($17 million in 1965
to $20,448,200 in 1968) is In the
form of new homes, which require additional city services.
Kentfield added that figures show
it takes taxes for 10 years for
the city to get back the initial
costs of Improvements.
Kentfield and Tiedt pointed
out that city tax rates came
nowhere near the assumed-20mlll limitation In past years.

Police halt

St. Johns police officers, and
some of our informed citizens,
worked In close harmony with
the Michigan State Police Intelligence Unit, to break up a
potentially dangerous source of
narcotic drugs' to this city.
Prosecutor R o l l a n d Duguay
says, *The state police have
for the present cut off the prime
source of supply to this local
area, but this does not mean
that we can relax."
Probate Judge Timothy Green
emphasized that "our concern is
to keep narcotics out of reach of
our teenagers, who are the easy
prey, but also the sufferers,
once they get hooked. It's availability is too close to consider
this problem totally closed."

The term we regularly use for
our cleaning method is "dry
cleaning". Yet quite often your
dry cleaner must also be an
expert in "wet cleaning". Many
of the stains which soil clothes
require wet cleaning or even
washing to remove. Such common summertime stains as
those from alcoholic beverages and soft drinks are examples. Ice cream and many
food stains are water soluble
and are best removed by water
or moisture.
Perspiration is another staining agent which mayhave to be
removed by wet cleaning in
those areas where it has left
the heaviest d e p o s i t s and
caused stiffening of f a b r i c .
This problem occurs most often during the hot weather
months as the result of repeated perspiration.
In addition, dry c l e a n e r s
sometimes turn to moisture
spotting where soil Is deeply
imbedded In afabrlctosuchan
extent that water is needed to
loosen It. In all such 1 cases,
wet cleaning is a supplement
to dry cleaning.
Whatever is needed to restore
your fine garments to like-new
condition, clean and fresh and
wrinkle-free, you can be sure
of the finest cleaning when you
call on our experience.

According to MJfcs Cusack, the
area^that^is now Hubbardston was
originally* inhabited !by Ottawa

the Land Office was established
at Ionia in 1834, the first settlers arrived in the area about
1B36.

Registration of handguns in county
climbing toward new year's record
Registration of handguns is proceeding at a record level In
Clinton County during 1968, although the number of concealed
weapons permits are down a little bit.
While stricter gun control legislation Is getting a lot of
publicity nationally, more guns are being purchased and carried..
In Clinton County, some 232 revolvers have been registered with
the Clinton County sheriff's office so far this year, compared to
448 registrations during all of 1967.
The county clerk's office has issued 82 concealed weapons
permits during the first five months of 1968. That's a little behind
the. pace of 262 permits issued during 196,7, but part of the reason has* been that pie gun board, which rules on all permit
requests, hasn't met as often, a^flflraral this year.
The permits Jo carry a> concealed weapon are for three
years. Mrs Laura Ripple,-deputy in tjje county clerk's office,
said the pemits are all fce*tricftve*rt8 that "hunting and target'
shooting" are the reasons given for the majority of requests

Fun D a y June 11 in county
Eighty-five Clinton County 4-H
members, parents and leaders
participated in the fourth Annual
4-H Conservation Fun Day held
on June 11 in the county. It was
a day filled with activities and
education with emphasis this
year on forestry, soils, water
safety and fish.
The day's activity began with a
film on coho salmon as to how
the coho are produced and what
is being done to expand the coho
production in Michigan waters.
Earl Goff, county conservation
officer, spoke on the new regulations in using state-owned

The group then visited the St.

Farm Road where they saw logs
debarked, logs sawed, slab wood
chipped and lumber graded and
stored. Harold H a m i l t o n explained the operation of the saw
mill and they they purchase all
species of Michigan lumber to
saw.
Besides the demand of the lumber for bulldingpallets, furniture
and buildings, nothing Is wasted,
as the sawdust is sold for bedding
and the slabs are chipped and sold
for the manufacturing of paper.

the members what soil percolation Is. Soils must have certain minimum ability to absorb
water from the drain field before approval of home construction is granted with a septic tank

The difference in fish species
were explatned'by Bud Jacobs of
the Michigan Conservation Department. He explained how a
person identifies fish, what fish
feed upon and what they are
doing to develop a fish program
for various bodies of water in
the state.
Water and boating safety was
demonstrated by Trooper Ivan
Teshka of the Michigan State
Police with instruction on how
you might save a person from
drowning, what to do .when your
boat capsizes and the use of
scuba diving equipment.
Trooper Teshka emphasized
the danger of swimming in gravel
pits and other unguarded areas
in hopes the t-ragqdy of the
Lansing girl who drowned r e cently could be avoided. He also
explained the new law stating that
all boats must have a life preserver for each occupant on
board and discussed the qualifications for operating a power
boat.
The fun day consisted offunas

Very few general permits, are issued, she said, and most
Of these are for police officers or part-time officers.
More women than ever are seeking permits to carry a gun,
Mrs Ripple noted, with most of them also listing "target shooting
and hunting.* *But they don't say what they're hunting or what
the target is," she commented.
Registration of handguns has been climbing steadily during
the last six years, while concealed weapons permits have shown a
sure but unsteady rise.
Registrations have climbed from 194 in 1962 to 243 In 1963,*
.to 269 in 1964, to 356 In 1965, then dropped to 331 in 1966 and
shot up to 448 in 1967. The 232 total so far this year is over half
of last year.'s total, and the year istnot half over.
Concealed weapons permits numbered 181 in 1962, dropped to
177 in 1963, and then rose to 226 in 1964 and 234 in 1965. The
year 1966 showed a slight decline to 228, but in 1967 the number
went back up to a new high of 262. The five-month total for 1968
Is 82.

It's the berries'
time in Michigan
By HELEN B. MEACH
Extension Home Economist
"It's the berries" time coming
up in Michigan. With hot weather, ripening will he fast and a
shortened season may result.
At best, the strawberry season
is short so don't let the berries
get away from you. Keep check on
the supermarket, your favorite
farm market, or —lucky you—
your very own berry patch.
What berries are grown in
Michigan and
which v a r i eties are best
for what use?
Nationally
Michigan us ually r a n k s
fourth
in
strawberry;
production.
The main varieties in Michigan are Midway,
Robinson, S p a r k l e and Early
Dawn.
Midway, accounting for 75 per
cent of the acreage, produces
large, glossy, dark-red, firm
fruit that freezes well. Xt Js the
preferred variety by many Michigan processors because it holds
its shape well,'possesses excellent flavor and is red throughout.
ROBINSON IS NOTED for its
mild flavor, large size and bright
glossy color. It is soWfor fresh
market, lacking f i r m n e s s desired for frozen berries.
WATERTOWN

TOWNSHIP
MINUTES
June 10,1968
The June meeting of Watertown
Charter Township was called to
order by Supervisor Openlander
with all Board members present.
Minutes of the Regular May
meeting were read and approved
except for one correction. Minutes of the Special ilay^and June
meeting were read ana approved.
Mr. Openlander stated to the
Board that the matter of the
Sugden, Die. request fort sand
•amd gravelon the Gierke property
{Was denied by the Clinton County
'Zoning Commission due to the
fact that the property was zoned
residential.
Mrs. Lipps was present torequest of the Board replacement of
the monument on her two burial
spaces in the wacousta Cemetery. After explaining the Rules
and Regulations of the Cemetery
to her, she was informed that
there was nothing the Board could
do at this time.
Discussion was had relative to
the length of time for the American Flags to be left on the Veterans graves at the Cemetery due
to vandalism, and since there is
no law that can be found on this
subject, the Sexton was instructed to take the flags down June
11th.
The matter of repairing or r e placing the sign at the Wacousta
Cemetery was discussed at great
length, and Mr. Openlander was
instructed to appoint a committee
to investigate the cost of a new
sign, material and placement and
to report at the next regular
meeting.
Motion m a d e and supported
that the Township purchase the
cement mixer now being used at
the Cemetery. Motion carried.
The Board concurred with the
Planning Commission's recommendation that Ellwood Day be
allowed to place a trailer on his
property for the use of his mother during her lifetime.
Treasurer's report read and
placed on file.
Bills were read and motion
made and supported that the bills
be allowed and orders drawn for
the same.
There being no further business, meeting adjourned.
Sparkle is a late season variety of medium size and high quality. It makes an excellent frozen
berry.
Early Dawn ripens three to five
days earlier-than other commercial varieties in Michigan and is
sold primarily for the fresh market.
Blueberries are favorites in
many families. We harvest both
wild and cultivated blueberries
In Michigan. In the cultivated
acreage and production our state
ranks second, nationally.
Michigan varieties are Jersey,
Bluecrop and Rubel. Bluecrop
produces the largest berries; It
ripens earlier and is usually
found in our fresh fruit markets.

Watch the
enzymes

LOMerHORKI-GOLBV or

CHEESE
by LORRAINE SPRAGUE
Extension Home Economist
Enzymes?! Most of us associate "enzynies* with thoughts
of food and digestive processes.
Now we wyi hear of them is
relation to' laundry processes.
This term added to "durable
press cycle," *so!l release finishes" and others helps to make
up an entirely new laundry vocabulary. To keep up-to-date, we
we each must
learn what
these terms
mean and
look for them
on product
labels.
Our f i r s t
introduction
to ^synthetic"
detergent
was about 35
ago. Since then we've heard of
fluorescent brighteners, water
conditioners, low sudsing detergents and pre-measured tablets
of detergents and bleaches. Without a doubt all of these have contributed to better laundering results once we learned how to
use them. Now the use of enzyme
additives in p r e s o a k i n ' g and
washing products represents the
very newest approach to the
removal of certain stains and
soils duringthewashingprocess.
Just as enzymes perform in
the human digestive process in
breaking down food into more
digestible and a s s i m i l a b l e
f o r m s , enzymes incorporated
into presoaking and washing products serve as agents to speed
the breakdown of certain soils
and stains into less complex
forms. Though there are v different kinds of enzymes, greatest emphasis is on those that
will assist in the break-up and
subsequent removal of protein
type stains. Such stains as those
from blood and egg (presently
very difficult to remove from
many fabrics) would be affected.
Another type of enzyme will attack stains from starchy sub's tances.

Berries deserve tender care.
Wash them just before you plan
to use them because moisture
hastens mold and breakdown of
the tender fruit cells. For best
flavor and least waste use berries within a day or two after
picking or purchase. Blueberries
are better keepers than strawberries, but a week in your refrigerator is p u s h i n g storage

Finding unusual "ways to prepare various dishes is a secret to
the pleasures of'cooking outdoors. A baked potato is always good
accompaniment for a steak or a roast prepared on the grill, and
here's a different method of preparation to giye your guests a world
of flavor.
Select large red potatoes—one'per person— and split lengthwise
down the middle. In each half make ascore with a paring knife.
Fill the score on one half with butter and the score of the other
half with grated parmesan cheese..Cover one side with thin slices
of white onion.
Press the two halves together and wrap tightly in heavy foil,
being sure that you, have a good seal. Indoor^ or in an outdoor'oven,
bake one hour at 400 degrees^H may, lake, a little longer on an outdoor grill depending on the heat levejjtftypur iire. At any rate you
can test for doneness by gently squeezing the potato.
Cut open the foil and aad additional- "butter or sour cream to
serve. I think you'll likejfte delicate blending of the flavors of the
butter, cheese, onion and potato.

INCIDENTALLY, WHEN YOU'RE PLANNING meals, especially the buffet type for family or guests, don't overlook the appeal,of
Canadian bacon. Canadian bacon is cured pork tenderloin and conies
in long rolls.
While it is excellent sliced and fried, I personally prefer to
cook Canadian bacon in a 2 or 3-pound piece. Here's a good recipe
for baked pepper-crusted Canadian bacon.
Put a two-pound piece, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
If it does not have a'good layer of fat, place two strips of bacon
over the top. Pour over 1/2 cup of beer or ale.and bake in a 350degree oven for a half hour, basting frequently.
Sprinkle the fat'generously with freshly-ground black* pepper
and bake another 45 minutes. It's delicious sliced thin and served
either hot or cold.
If you want to prepare this recipe outdoors, place the Canadian
bacon in heavy foil, cupping the sides to hold the beer when you
pour it over. Seal with a store wrap and put on your grill 2 or 3
inches from the bed of coals.
After it has steamed 30 minutes, open (with gloves) and apply the
pepper coating, then reseal for the remainder of the cooking time.
If you desire, you can do Canadian bacon on a rotisserie,
cooking until well heated through. Pepper when the fat becomes
soft. Baste with warm beer or with a mixture of equal parts butter
and vinegar.

JOURNEY...
THE CHURCH FOR ALL
The caravan has travelled through the desert for
many days . . . and the men ave glad to see the tall date
palms of the oasis in the distance. Here they will rest and
refresh themselves beside the cool spring before*continuing oiiktheir way.
Every journey is made easier if it is broken by intervals of restoration and renewal. Even life itself can be
a weary road if it does not contain'times and places where
we can pause to gather new strength. Where can modern
men and women regain the equilibrium and peace of
mind that they need so badly?
Fortunately, we too have an oasis . . . the Christian
Church. The teachings of Jesus offer deep wells of comfort-for the spirit, and springs of joy to revitalize any
life that lacks goal or purpose.
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual
values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor ciW/izalion can survive. There are four sound reasons why every
person should attend services regularly and support the Church.
They are: (}) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake.
(3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the
sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible daily.

Japanese
beetle trap
being set
.
To detect the presence of J a p anese beetle, a destroyer of more
than 250 different types of vegetation, representatives of the
federal and state departments of
agriculture are placing 18,000
traps at various points in southern Michigan.
The bright yellow traps a r e
baited with an aromatic oil which
lures beetles. It Is not an insecticide. Where b e e t l e s a r e
found control measures a r e Instituted to prevent spread of in' testation.
In sourthen Michigan a d u l t
beetles emerge around July 1
from the soil where tbey have
spent 10 months In the gfub^tage.
The grubs destroy roots of many
types of plants including Jawn and
turf. The adult beetle is a voracious feeder. It consumesfruits,
vegetables, ornamental p l a n t s
and other vegetation.
Director B. Dale Ball of the
Michigan Department of Agriculture said each year the department's plant industry division
combines forces with the USDA's
plant pest control division in
waging battle against the pest.
About 13,000 t r a p s will be
placed in metropolitan Detroit.
Areas around G r a n d Rapids,
Lansing and Bay City will r e ceive about 1,000 traps each.
There will be intensive trapping
a r o u n d Chikaming Township,
Berrien County, where a beetle
I n f e s t a t i o n was pinpointed in
1967.
Two areas in southern Michigan will go under quarantine for
the pest on July 1, There will
be intensive trapping here to
find perimeters of infestation.
These areas are the southern
parts of Monroe and Lenawee
counties and an a r e a in and
' around Battle Creek that takes,in,
parts of Kalamazoo, Calhoun and
Barry counties.
Information gained from the
trapping program, which will
continue until early autumn, Is
used in planning control measures to halt spread of this
destructive insect, Ball said.
Fire destroyed an average of
more than a half million dollars
of farm property a d a y In 1966,
according to the Insurance Information Institute. Farm fire
losses l a s t year reached a r e c ord high of $195 million.
Stronger pesticide controls,
sponsored by the Michigan D e partment of Agriculture, were
signed into law recently by Governor George R o m n e y . Two
separate bills give the state
agricultural agency increased

restrict use of pesticides and
other chemicals knows as "economic poisons."
Governor Romney asked for
Immediate effect for an amendment (H, B. 3876) concerning
registration of economic poisons. This gives the state a g r i culture department full authority
to deny registration of" a p e s t i cide in Mictygon./Pre$«fBJy the
law required thai ctieitticaLfirms

Director B, Dale Ball of the
Michigan Department of Agriculture said that registration of
such chemicals may be denied
under the amended law, upon
scientific recommendations of
the Michigan State University
Experiment Station. He pointed
to the department's recent withdrawal of DDT for mosquito control a s an example of similar
action.

stricter controls over licensees.
With the new law, according to
Director Ball, pesticides applicators may be restricted to use
of certain types of equipment or
specific pesticides, according to
their qualifications.
Both bills were originated and
strongly endorsed by the Michigan Department of Agriculture.
Michigan f a r m organizations
supported the legislation.
•I'm pleased that the Legislature and the governor have taken
this action," said Director Ball.
"We now have increased powers
to regulate pesticide usage in
Michigan as s c i e n c e provides
new information. Michigan has
demonstrated national leadership in pesticide controls. Much
of our progress Is due to the
fine research and recommendations of the Michigan State University Experiment Station."

more digestible,"
The MSU dairy scientists also
compared silage preserved with
formic acid as well a s from a
field de-watering process (some
moisture removed with mechanical pressure). Weight gain, milk
production and digestibility were
about the same for all silage
preservation methods.
*This indicates that dairymen
can get normal rates of gain or
milk production feeding direct
cut or wilted silage with reasonable amounts of grain," Thomas
reported,
"These facts, plus the r e l a tively low labor requirementand
ease of harvesting, suggest that
dairymen should consider using
more direct cut silage than i s
now produced."

ASC PROGRAM
'New wheat farm9
applications due soon
NOW, FROM PURINA'S HORSE RESEARCH CENTER
W. M. SMITH
County ASC Manager
A new farm wheat allotment
may be established for 1969
crop wheat for farms that did
not have a 1968 wheat allotment
and can meet eligibility requirements.
A producer eligible to file an
application is one with a farm
for which no wheat allotment has
been established, and for which
neither the owner nor the operator has an interest in the wheat
allotment on any other farm, who
has available land and adequate
equipment, and facilities for the
successful production of a wheat
crop on the farm, who during the
last five years has had at least
two years experience In p r o ducing wheat, and who as an
operator expects to receive more
than 50 per cent of his current
y e a r s income from the total p r o duction on the farm, not including the anticipated income
from wheat produced on a "new
farm" allotment.
"Applications for a>new farm
wheat allotment must be filed in
the ASCS county office on or before June 30, 1968.
On June 11 the state and county
committee opened bids received
for the three quonsets they had
offered for sale at our Elsie

for one quonset; all others were
rejected because they were b e low the minimum bid established

Ugly and dangerous
- that's a weed patch
l This is the time of the year -when the
initial growth of weeds reaches the ugly
stage. I£ left unchecked since early spring
they - are tall enough and bushy enough to
not only'hide what is under them but what is
beyond them
Primarily tall weeds are a safety
hazard. There are several spots around St.
Johns where weeds have blocked the view
of motorists at busy intersections and have
already resulted in many near-accidents; In
other areas the weeds hide small and sharp
debris that is potential hazard for youngs t e r s , now out of school, who like to think
of tramping through tall weeds as an adventuresome safari through a jungle.
v Safe.ty is the prime consideration for
weed control, but another important aspect
is community pride. Tall weeds are not
pretty; they a r e , as we said earlier, ugly.
Their presence detracts from a .nicelooking community. In a time when St. Johns
residents need to take pride in their city,
patches of tall weeds are certainly not a
help.
There is a weed control ordinance and
a nuisance ordinance on the law books of
St. Johns. We're sure city officials are
about to crack down and force the cutting of
noxious weeds. It would behoove the owner
of property sprouting tall weeds to have
them removed on his own initiative before
it's forced on him . . . or before a serious
accident results.

nttCfc SAYS..
GOSHM
School operationproblems for this year
are solved to a great extent, thanks to a
forward-looking community of voters, but
the same problem will crop up again next
year unless some new method of financing
local, government is worked out.
jj, It '"is afmo'st 'universally M 'felt-that -the
property tax is not a fair tax in this day
and age. If it is not, then it is up to our
state Legislature to find and put into law a
more equitable method. Citizens at-large
should not get high hopes, however, because the solution will still be a tax.
A city resident, a school district r e s i dent or a county resident can no longer expect to get public services without paying
for them, If he was lucky enough to have
done so in the past, he' should count his
blessings and be prepared to do his share
in the future.
Taxation is necessary. It is of utmost
importance to the community, district and
county that this taxation be as fair as possible. The organizations that plugged so
hard for millage approval under the present
system of taxation promised efforts to
change that system before next year.
It is not too early to start. The future
has a way of getting here pretty fast, and
taxpayers may not be so lenient next year.

The forward look
By W. E. DOBSON
We cannot return to the days of our youth
No matter how hard we may try,
And memory falls on so many details
Of those days that so long have gone by:
We see them in fancy, those nostalgic days,
Though we could not realize then—
The role they would play in years yet ahead,
When we became women and men.
The freedom from worry in those early days
Was a feature enjoyed in our youth,
A schooling to later stand us in good stead,
When we came to grips with stern truth.
We cannot recall the mistakes we made then,
Nor properly always appraise
The drive and the motives of present day youth
Who are carrying on in these days.
Then let us who now move off the main stage
Aim to help but be slow to pick flaws,
In the part being played by our children today
As they give of their best to the cause.

When I clerked In a drugstore, 25
years ago, my idea of a rich man was the
guy who bought those Fancy Bridge Mix
nuts. I used to swipe a handful when the
pharmacist was pharming and boy, there
was no better eating. But for-10 cents you
didn't get enough to plug a soda straw.
When Investing money In those days,
a guy had ,to think of quantity as well
as quality. That's why I bought Holloway
suckers instead of Heath bars, jawbreakers Instead of caramels—I could
suck a lot longer than I could chew. It
wasn't just that I wanted to be eating all
day. It was also my big sister, Terrible
Jean. If I finished my candy before Terrible Jean finished hers, she always said,
"Haha, your candy is all gone and I've
still got a lot left." This made me feel
bad.
Of course, sometimes she finished first
and I said the same thing to Terrible Jean.
She would then slug me and that made me
feel worse.

grabbed a birthday card from the nearby

Bement Public Library
FIFTEEN FLAGS, a novel by
Ric Hardman, is a book with a
most interesting background. Set
in Russia, the story deals with the
American SiberianExpeditionary
Force of 1918-1920, whichjoined
the allied Intervention in the
Russian Civil War.
The American 27th and 31st
Infantry Divisions were given the
Job of protecting the Trans-Siberian Railroad, and were drawn
into the bitter conflicts of the
Russian Revolution.
FIFTEEN FLAGS is peopled
with i n t e r e s t i n g characters,
mostly male and military, but
there are a Czech countess and
a R u s s i a n candy seller who
brighten the scene.
'The author Of FIFTEEN FLAGS

With news of political campaigns flooding the news media,
it is not surprising that two new
books, recently received at Bement Public Library, deal with
elections. One, written by Edmund Llndop primarily for the
younger generation, Is entitled
THE FIRST BOOK OF ELECTIONS, but it is filled with information of which many adults
are ignorant, so it is available
in the adult section of the library.
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS
by Nelson W, Polsby and Aaron
B. Wlldavsky is a deeper, more
involved book, dealing specifically with the mechanics of
choosing a president of the United
States. It covers the history and
legends of most past elections,
and is a very entertaining book,
as well as an informative one.
The authors are both professors
of political science at the ,Uni- '

liberal one, but the book is essentially factual.

MICHIGAN MIRROR
Public owns state colleges;
students help pay operation
BY ELMER E, WHITE
Michigan Press Assiu
Some students do not realize
or are unappreciative of the public investment In higher education. Many seem to feel that student tuition pays the entire cost
of operating a state university.
Statistics show that for every
dollar the student pays in tuition^
an average of three dollars is
contributed from public funds.
D u r i n g the 1961-68 school
year,- citizens of Michigan paid
$204.6 million to help finance 15
state-supported schools. Tuition
amounted to $79.2 million.
State support varies between
schools but averaged $1,202 per
student for the school year just
completed. This represented a
range of $714 per student at
Central Michigan University to
$1,817 at newly-established Saginaw Valley State C o l l e g e .
Although enrollment increased
over the 1966-67 school year,
total state appropriations declined about $8 million.
Indications are that it will Increase substantially next year.
The public owns the state education institutions. The student
pays part of the cost of operation. He receives an education
which permits him to appreciate
life more fully and earn a better
salary.
of which Michigan Is either a
national leader in production or
is near'the top.
The tour lasts f-10 days and
requires p u b l i c appearances
from morning 'till night. This
year's trip began at Lansing and
covered Chicago, Kansas City,
New Orleans, Washington, D.C.,
and New York City. Travel is by
both rail and airplane.
In past years, tours have covered even greater distances. One
trip took the girls 8,000 mile's in
eight days; stops were made at
Nashville, Tenn., Tucson, Ariz.,
Hollywood, Calif., and the Seattle
Fair. Another year, the girls
were guests of the U.S. Navy
aboard a Michigan-manufactured
destroyer.
Queens are chosen each year
at special festivities sponsored
by the commodity groups they
r e p r e s e n t . This year's apple
queen, Brenda Sanford, 18, of
Shelby was selected atthewinter
Michigan S t a t e 'Horticultural
Show in Grand Rapids. Cherry
queen Linda Kaye Christie, 19,
whose parents now live in Toledo,
Ohio, was picked at the Cherry
Festival in Traverse City. Sheila
Westall, 19, was c h o s e n bean
queen last Labor Day during the
Bean Festival in Fairgrove.
Girls are accompanied by Joe
E, Wells, information division,
Michigan Department of Agriculture, and his wife, Marjorie.
Wells, who prepares the trip
itinerary each year, notes that
each girl is thoroughly familiar
with the product she represents
and is taught many facts about
Michigan before leaving on tour.
At each stop the girls present
samples of the three commodities.

is not hard to do. You must know
the cause; is the victim choking,
drowning, is the condition r e sulting from electric shock, gas
p o i s o n i n g or drug poisoning,
crushing injuries to the head,
neck, or chest? Could he have
fallen off a step ladder? Any
injured person should first be
examined to see why he is having
difficulty breathing. If there is
any obstruction in the mouth or
throat, it must be removed. If
there is water in the mouth this
must be drained out. Roll the
victim on his stomach. Watch
out for a piece of gum or anything that can lodge in the airway
and'make it impossible to get
air in his lungs. Some good
hard slaps on the back may remove the choking object. Time
is of the utmost importance.
Begin at once; a few breaths
may do the job. First, position
the victim of his back with the
chin jutting up, head tilted back.
(To check yourself on the position, try this: tilt your head as
far back as possible, and try to
swallow. Hard isn't it? This is
because the airway wants to stay
open;) Pinch the nose to close the
nostrils so air cannot escape.
Open your mouth wide enough to
cover the victim's mouth, make
a good seal and blow, a sharp
puff. If you are in proper position
you can see the chest rise and
fall with each air exchange. The
blowing cycle should be approximately 12 times per minute^for
adults and 20 times per minute
