A Hayward piece argues residents routinely discard papers and wrappers on streets and porches. It notes newspapers vacationing in yards and advertising circulars tossed around, urging stricter enforcement and a cultural shift to pick up litter.
Citizens praise a new effort to curb street litter, noting that only advertising bills remain, and the town would become notably cleaner if the initiative succeeds.
An executive letter to the Standard argues Contra Costa county should shift from agriculture to manufacturing. Local payrolls and prosperity depend on residents buying county made goods, boosting production and employment. Alameda County is also noted. The piece notes issues with chain stores and packing plants and includes a quip about brides and grooms.
California State Forester M B Pratt disclosed incendiary fires traced to dealers in Christmas berries. Fires in Amador county blamed on burning to clear old bushes for new, heavier berry crops. He noted a similar pattern in several eastern states and urged readers to heed the advertisements for news of interest.
