The building season promises to be a busy one in Red Bluff the coming year. Construction of a new home for the Red Bluff Na- tional Bank is virtually as- sured. D. J. Metzger will put up a new block on the sites now occupied by the local chamber of commerce and the old Schoenfeld build- ing. The Masonic lodges of the city are to either re- build on the ground where fire destroyed their head- quarters Sunday morn- ing, or have a new struc- ture built on another site yet to be selected. The Southern Pacific Company may build a new depot here. A new Federal structure is planned. And many smaller buildings are to be con- structed. — Dec. 24, 1924 90YEARSAGO RedBluffbank, Masonic Order, Metzger to build The rains have been good for the Discovery Garden this fall and now winter. The rains have also brought back to the Men- docino National Forest's Red Bluff Recreation Area some four legged crea- tures that are not wanted or needed. A population of deer have discovered the gar- den and have been busy eating the ends of many of the newly planted native- drought tolerant plants that are proving not deer proof — plants may be deer resistant, but none are deer proof. The other four legged creatures appear from a distance to be large black and white stripped cats. Yes, skunks are back liv- ing under the building and since it is mating sea- son there is a whole lot of scenting the air going on under there. As a result of the un- der the building visitors the Visitor Center will be closed until they are all removed. Bob Hassel of Animal Nuisance Control is on the job. He helped two years ago when there were 17 skunks under the building. He has already removed one skunk, but Ranger Ron Gregory saw at least six skunks around the building one morn- ing so there are lots more there. Hassel said because of the rain the skunks are looking for warm dry places to birth their young and suggests people check around all homes, not built on a slab, to be sure there are no access points under their residences. The public will be no- tified as soon as all the skunks are relocated with a target date of Saturday, Dec. 27. Watch the Daily News or the center's web or Face- book page for more infor- mation.
