The Stars and Stripes wave bright and new above the Red Bluff Community and Senior Center after the American Legion donated a brand new flag with an honor guard ceremony May 18. Tehama County Supervi- sor Dennis Garton started the process by noting that the previous flag was faded and had developed a tear during a recent wind storm. Carmen Gleason and the Community Center Auxil- iary decided to take ac- tion to remedy the situa- tion and the American Le- gion was more than happy to provide a new flag that is nearly twice as large. Ray Edwards, com- mander of VFW Post 1932 in Red Bluff, is a regular at the congregate meals served at the community center. He was joined in the flag raising ceremony by Clark Sillman, Jessie Neff and Bill Kellner of VFW Post 167 as about a dozen seniors and center staff watched in appreciation.

CHP Ca r sa fe ty s ea t inspections offered Saturday Citizens who fail to hear the concert at the op- era house this evening by the high school band will miss a most entertaining concert. This prediction is based on what previous concerts of the band have been, and on the constant training and practice the organization has had dur- ing the past year. The con- cert given by this band last year was one of the best musical programs put on in this city during the en- tire year, and one of the most highly appreciated. As was the case last year the band will be under the direction of E. W. Un- ash, a leader of rare mu- sical talent, and who has been with the organization so long that he thoroughly understands the ability of every member. — May 28, 1915 100 YEARS AGO... Ba nd c on ce rt a t opera house is to be rare treat The water crisis facing California is serious and carries imminent envi- ronmental, financial and human impacts. Cash in- centives are being used in some areas to get home- owners to voluntarily give up their lawns. Before making drastic changes to your lawn and landscape, the National Association of Landscape Professionals offers the fol- lowing tips to help home and business owners make smart decisions. Look at the landscape you have now. Some ele- ments in your landscape may already be drought- friendly, but you may need to change others. Calcu- late how much water you are using now and how fre- quently you are watering. Consider the environ- mental and human im- pacts. Lawns and land- scapes offer benefits that mitigate drought impacts. Grass cools the air around a home or building, re- duces pollution, limits heat islands, suppresses dust, controls soil erosion and sequesters carbon. Grass also assists in decomposing pollutants, dissipates heat, lowers allergy-related prob- lems, reduces home cool- ing costs and acts as a fire barrier. Importantly, grass serves as a natural filter to potable water supplies, re- ducing storm water runoff and capturing and filtering precipitation. Educate yourself about how lawns and turfgrass respond during a drought. Most people overwater their lawns and assume that if grass is not green, it may be dying. Grass ac- tually goes into a dormant state during a drought. It may look brown, but it's not dead. If the crowns and root system are intact and have adequate moisture, grass can sustain itself. Think about how you intend to use your lawn or landscape moving forward. Do you enjoy backyard bar- becues with friends and family? Is your yard a rest- ful oasis from stress? Or a place for pets and children to romp and run? For em- ployers, a landscape may be a gathering place for employees at break time or a welcoming visual for guests. Consider how you want to use your yard or landscape going forward to ensure that your re-de- signed landscape meets your needs. Seek the advice of lawn and landscape profession- als. Getting professional landscape advice has never been more important than now. With a variety of dif- ferent rules and restric- tions at the state and lo- cal level, it is important to make sure you are making changes that are in line with the regulations. Install drought-friendly landscaping and change your watering practices. There are many drought- friendly landscaping op- tions available, such as drought tolerant low-water native plants. For instance, planting with hydrozones and installing drip irri- gation can minimize wa- ter usage. There are many ways to make a landscape drought-friendly, enjoyable and useful. Determine a plan for go- ing forward. Design your landscape so it can be sus- tainably maintained, and still be enjoyed and used in the days and months ahead as water restrictions are put in place.
