POLICEREPORTS Mumps among the chil- dren in Los Molinos public schools have become prev- alent to such an extent that some of the classes have been reduced more than 50 percent. The epi- demic is affecting the pri- mary grades the most se- riously. It is not the inten- tion to close the schools unless absolutely neces- sary. The disease is mild in form and it is believed the maximum number of cases has already been reached, and that the attendance will improve next week. So many children are out of school that it is feared the years attendance may be so reduced that Los Mo- linos will not be entitled to draw state funds for the present number of teach- ers next year. —April23,1915 100 YEARS AGO... MumpsinvadeLosMolinosgrammarschool By Julie Renier Gardening is America's most popular hobby. I am not surprised. My parents both worked full time and my father did a great deal of traveling. Yet we always had fresh flowers on the kitchen table and tomatoes and basil and squash dur- ing the summer months. I recently visited them at their senior living commu- nity- Dad is 90, Mom is 87- and we discussed the to- matoes and basil and flow- ers I will help them plant on my next visit. We put out a planter of pansies and brought out the dor- mant hot pink geranium from the basement stor- age. Last spring I was not certain whether this addi- tional chore for Dad would be wise- but their love of gardening has been reig- nited and the joy of watch- ing their flowers and herbs grow on their balcony has never been more impor- tant. Dad's success with traditional and heritage tomatoes allowed him to even share his bounty among other residents. There are so many ben- efits of gardening. The physical exercise is a most obvious one but I was sur- prised to learn that 45 minutes of gardening can be equivalent to 30 min- utes of aerobic exercise. The benefit of stress reduc- tion is obvious as you fo- cus your thoughts and en- ergy on the task at hand. If you need to develop pa- tience gardening is a gift. There is no way to hurry your garden and working patiently provides greater yields. Consuming and preserving fresh produce is the most obvious re- ward. Once you grow and consume your own, noth- ing can compare. Another benefit is cog- nitive growth. If you are creative, you can create both beautiful and func- tional gardens. Garden- ing itself creates so many problem solving oppor- tunities- whether to pur- chase or start plants from seeds, where to purchase healthy plants suited to lo- cal climate, what type of soil you have, whether soil amendments are needed, choosing a garden loca- tion or locations, timing and quantity of watering, deciding if you want to grow organically, fighting pests or diseases, mulch- ing options, garden pred- ators, fencing options and finally- how to utilize your harvest. You simply can- not avoid growing intel- lectually if you garden. The Internet is a great tool — now you can iden- tify problems and find so- lutions easily. One addi- tional benefit of garden- ing involves participating in a garden club. A shared love of gardening creates an opportunity to grow friendships while shar- ing knowledge and serv- ing the community. I am thrilled to see that gardeners are shar- ing their passion by set- ting up community gar- dens, creating gardens with students in schools and making garden spaces available in senior com- munities. Thirty years ago, I taught elementary school in rural Tennessee and Ohio. My students were well versed in gardening due to either poverty or culture. The rural area in Plain City Ohio was largely Mennonite and Amish. I was fascinated by their very early huge and meticulously tended gardens. Known for their self-reliance and simple lifestyle, there was always a section of their gardens filled with brilliant zin- nias and other flowers. It was clear that even a cul- ture of true self-sufficiency appreciated the need for beautiful flowers. The Red Bluff Garden Club website is www.red- bluffgardenclub.com. The annual Spring Plant Sale is 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 15- 16 at the Union Hall 12889 Baker Road, Red Bluff. Plants, shrubs and trees as well as garden art grown and created by members offer an excellent afford- able opportunity to start or complete your garden.

RED BLUFF GARDEN CLUB Apr il i s Na ti on al Gardening Month In honor of the 94th an- nual Red Bluff Round-Up, St. Elizabeth Community Hospital staff joined in the celebration of 11 days of Round-Up on April 13 by spreading cheer and good will. A team of ambassadors traveled throughout the hospital and to several sites affiliated with the hospital such as Home, Health and Hospice and the Hospice Second Hand Store in Red Bluff and the Corning Lab Draw Station. Each loca- tion received either a large bag or a rodeo hat filled to the brim with candy and adorned with balloons. This was the first of several ways the Dignity Health affiliate planned to celebrate rodeo week along with allowing staff to wear western clothing to work. ST.

COURTESY PHOTO The Manton Grange came up with the idea of the mayor's race several years ago as a way of help- ing to raise funds for local non-profit organizations. A candidate is elected not by votes but by the amount of money collected in his or her name to be donated to the non-profit of the can- didate's choice. Candidates must find a Manton business to spon- sor their race and choose from a list of approved non-profits to which to do- nate the proceeds of their campaign. Incumbent Gary Law- less has a head start on this year's election hav- ing held his first election fundraiser April 4 at his sponsor's venue, Indian Peak Vineyards. Gary and his wife, Abby, long- time Manton residents, grow and sell organic pro- duce and are well known and respected in the local farming community. Law- less' election proceeds will be divided between the Manton Music and Arts Program and the Manton Beautification Project. Candidate Gary Anglin will hold his first election event 3-7:30 p.m. Satur- day, April 25 at his spon- sor's venue, Cedar Crest Vineyards. There will be free live music by Wild Card Band and Haywire Band. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Anglin, a semi-retired Bay Area home builder, and his wife, Patti, are rel- ative newcomers, having moved to Manton in 2007. His mayor's race proceeds will go to the Manton Vol- unteer Fire Department and to the Manton School Community Club. For additional informa- tion, call 474-4848.
