Buttercupwillbeback. The real milking cow is an educational tool used for a real hands-on experience for all ages. She is 31 inches wide, 90 inches in length, 64 inches in height and weighs about 200 pounds. She comes with a working udder with teats you can re- ally squeeze to get the effect of milking a cow. Buttercup will be on hand at the 17th annual Dairyville Orchard Festival on Saturday, Oct. 18 at Las- sen View School. She will be presented by the North Valley Chapter of Califor- nia Women for Agriculture. Buttercup is a wonderful agricultural advocate and has encouraged many folks both young and old to ex- perience a hands on agri- cultural experience. Those visiting Buttercup will re- ceive an "I milked Butter- cup" sticker and a carton of chocolate milk to enjoy compliments of the CWA and the California Milk Ad- visory Board. Although the main em- phasis at the festival is lo- cally grown orchard fruits and nuts, the committee is thrilled to include other phases of agriculture. DAIRYVILLE BUTTERCUPRETURNSTO THE ORCHARD FESTIVAL COURTESYPHOTO Pictured is an unidentified little tot exploring Buttercup's belly at last year's Dairyville Orchard Festival. Red Bluff people turned out virtually enmasse to- day to greet the world fly- ers who passed over here shortly after 11 o'clock. The streets were deco- rated with flags for the occasion. Mayor G. G. Stice had arranged to have the fire bells give notice of the approach of the noted birdmen and this was done a few minutes after they had been sighted at Willows from which place word was flashed here. The buzz of one air- plane was heard a little in advance of the four oth- ers, and it was so high in the air that many persons experienced difficulty in seeing it. — Sept. 27, 1924 90 YEARS AGO...

ELECTION VotersnightplannedforOct.6 By Ronnie Casey We live in a rural area and animals, whether do- mestic or wild, are com- monplace. I truly think most people care about the animals with which they live. I also believe that the people within our lo- cal community have an ac- tive interest in not only the welfare of its domesti- cated animal population, but also about the organi- zations dedicated to help- ing those very animals. In Tehama County, we have two small shelters at- tempting to do big things, the Tehama County Ani- mal Care Center, at 1830 Walnut St. in Red Bluff and the Corning Animal Shel- ter, at 312 Rawson Road, Corning. Both of these pub- lic shelters are and have been trying desperately to save the lives of as many of the abused, homeless, and neglected animals that come into their doors as they possibly can. In addition, volun- teer organizations, such as PETS — Providing Es- sentials for Tehama Shel- ter — and Second Chance Pet Rescue have been cre- ated with the purpose to support not only these two shelters respectively, but to be active participants in the local community pro- viding guidance and ed- ucation to its residents about the animals with which they live. Additionally, it is my feeling that people as a rule want to do what is right and needed and given an opportunity will get involved. A fact re- vealed by the many con- cerned citizens and busi- nesses who have contrib- uted both time and funds to assist in reuniting, re- homing and rescuing the overwhelming amount of lost, found or abandoned pets in Tehama County. Our wonderful county, however, does have its share of problems and dif- ficulties with regard to various issues as they per- tain to domesticated ani- mals. The only way to be- gin to address them is if the majority of residents are aware these situations even exist. So as I sat at my keyboard, wonder- ing what to write about in this first column, it oc- curred to me that this and future articles should help not only those that are already in the trenches fighting uphill battles of animal injustice. But to those not already im- mersed in animal welfare, they should provide rele- vant information regard- ing local concerns of ani- mal well-being and what constitutes responsible pet ownership. However, if this column is to be truly pertinent, then there is no one bet- ter than you, the reader, to let me know what you are truly interested in. There- fore, I actively encourage anyone reading, to email me at rmcredbluff@gmail. com and tell me. What is it that you would like to know more about? Each one of us can make a positive difference in the lives of the animals existing around us. Some- times the smallest action, like asking a question, can begin to influence a change. I will look forward to hearing from you. RonnieCaseyisvicepres- ident of PETS — Provid- ing Essentials for Tehama Shelter. For more informa- tion about PETS, visit pet- stehama.org.
