Investigators are still search-ing for a man who stole a $4000 heat pump from Lyons Heating and Cooling. At 6:15pm, November 30, surveillance video caught the suspect removing a Trane XL16i which had been left on the loading dock. It was sup-
posed to be picked up by the owner. Instead, video shows a late model Ford F-150 (white/two tone with nerf bar, moon roof and aluminum wheels) drive by five times before an unidentified man decided to take it with him. He took a pallet first, then came back for the pump. Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Marion County Sheriff’s Deptartment at 503-588-4032.
Construction deepening the natural channel between the north shore of Detroit Lake and Piety Island will take place over the next few weeks. “The purpose of the project is to create a safer boating travel corridor between Piety Island and the mainland; this passage is especially critical in the late season as water levels drop,” said Grady McMahan, USFS Detroit District Ranger. Detroit Lake is the highest use boating lake in Oregon. “Now, boaters will be able to navigate around all sides of Piety Island, even in the late summer as the reser-
voir levels go down.” This is the first segment of a several year shoreline im-provement project that will help restore native vegetation and provide extended recre-ation opportunities for users. The dirt taken during im-provement of the natural chan-nel will be used to build a new small island near the existing Detroit Flats peninsula im-proving fish and wildlife habi-tat, said McMahan. The Oregon Army National Guard 224 Engineer Company under the 1249th Engineer Bat-talion is

Mill City Fire prepares for annual benefit
Dog’s digestive systems can indeed change as they age. For one thing, they may not produce enough digestive en-zymes which can cause the proteins and starches they eat to rot rather than being properly digested. At the same time they may have a GI flora that is out of bal-ance. For some dogs, it can be as simple as putting them on a very simplistic diet (those with 5 or less ingredients with meat as the primary ingredient, along with a prebiotic and a probiotic). A prebiotic is a type of starch or car-bohydrate that is necessary to support healthy bacteria flora in the gut (such as inulin or chicory). Probiotics are bac-teria that must be packaged/prepared in a way that can withstand stomach acid to get to the small intestine where it is needed and it must be able to withstand the manufacturing process and storage of the pet food before it is purchased. Many times this just isn’t possible. I often recommend an additional product that contains both digestive enzymes and probiotics in high numbers that are processed correctly. This supplement can then be sprinkled over the pet’s food
at each meal. The one we carry and rec-ommend is called Spunk. Dogs can also develop “adverse food reactions” as they age. It is similar to an allergy, or a type of hypersensitiv-ity to the proteins and carbohydrates in the diet. Dogs will often exhibit other symptoms if this is the case, such as ear infections, itchy skin, foot licking and chronic anal gland problems. These are all symptoms of allergy and may all be connected. In these cases we recommend a trial diet of a novel pro-tein/novel carbohydrate diet (aka a lim-ited ingredient diet). We have several of these choices at the clinic, such as our grain free venison, grain free salmon and pea, bison, duck, and now our latest diet is a kangaroo and red lentil diet. So while there may be many things go-ing on in a dog like Annie, with a sud-den change in symptoms, re-boosting her gut flora with a great pro-biotic is a great idea, and if that does not help resolve the issue of her flatulent fanny, then a diet trial may be in order for her! For more info, contact Dr. Keri Sand-ers at Ark Animal Care. 503-897-6004.
Q: My dog has been on the same dog food for several years, a decent brand lamb and rice from a major retailer in Salem. This past couple of weeks she has
developed the worst smelling, clear the room gas problem! She doesn’t appear to be in any pain and her stools are normal. She’s about 9 or 10 years old.
Do dogs dietary needs change as they get older?

NEW OWNERS!
Just last May, Bill Lamb of Clas-sic Auto & Tire opened his auto repair shop in Mill
City. Less than five months later, Lamb moved into full fledged expansion mode, opening a shop over five times larger than his original location near Frank Lumber in Mill City. Classic Auto & Tire started as a small repair facility with one covered bay. They used to have to send the big jobs into Salem. Now he’s got place to park ten cars under cover, an electric hoist - and a drive through bay for the big rigs, like logging trucks - easily located on Hwy 22, ½ mile west of Mill City. He’s now accepting credit cards, can store tires for the big rigs and can do welding jobs, too. “Business has been excep-tional,” said Lamb, who has grown his base to 402 cus-
tomers in just five months. He’s main-tained one local employee and plans to focus the original location on auto body work. Bill Lamb and his wife Mary recently moved from Salem to Lyons. “The small town is my passion. I saw a need for a repair facility. Now I get people from all over the Canyon and as far away as Jef-ferson.” The new Classic Auto & Tire repair facility is located at 27860 N Santiam Highway East, ½ mile west of Mill City. It will be the main office location and is open Mon-Fri 8:30a-5p, Sat 8:30a-4p. Info: 503-897-2256.

Eagles Lodge raises $477 for Senior Meals
The Mill City Eagles Lodge presented a $477 check to the Mill City Senior Meals pro-gram November 3. “It started out as a project we did to earn money for a (state-wide) program,” said Corrine Stewart. “Statewide, the Eagles raised $25,000. This is our part.” The funds came from the lodge’s 2010-11 raffles, dona-tions and T-shirt and pen sales. The donation was presented at the Mill City Presbyterian Church Fellowship Hall.

Deb’s Attic donates to local seniors
Once again, local resale clothing retailer Deb’s Attic spent last Wednesday morning taking donations to the Sublimity-based Marian Estates Assisted Living communi-ty. Every fall and spring, Deb Turner and
mom take over clothing, jewelry, purses and the like to give the local seniors a chance to shop for free - especially help-ful for those living on a budget. In all, Deb Turner has donated close to $10,000 over seven years. Local residents appreciate her eye for retail and her com-munity service. “It’s a wonderful family owned busi-ness,” said Addy S. in an online review. “I have been there many times and Deb, staff
and even customers in the store let me model and they were great in helping me decide and feel good about what I was purchasing. Deb’s Attic is great for the community and visitors.”

A discussion followed about where to distribute the money on our treasury. It was decided $75 would be given to the “Giving Tree”, $75 to Mill City Li-brary, $70 to Meals on Wheels, and $75 to Mill City Community Assistance Center. Alice Bond read a letter from the Santiam High School Year Book committee soliciting donations for their 2011-2012 yearbook. It was decided we will take out a ¼ page ad for $70. If next year’s “Dog Daze” sale doesn’t bring in more funds, we will no longer be able to donate to different charities. There was a drawing for a door prize of a bird bath, won by Alice Bond. The meeting was then adjourned. Mem-bers present were: Alice Bond, Karrin Brown, Betty Heald, Marie Harmon, Veda Maine, Whende Thomas and guest Judy Wooldridge. Next month’s meeting will be held on Wed. Nov. 16th at 1 pm at the home of Carolyn Fry, 824 W. Central in Gates.

Getting down to the Nuts and Bolts of itCider and donut social brings an appreciative crowd Sunday
A bed of nails, some ancient wall paper, and the Community Chorus singining Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah were just among the treats presented to the Nuts and Bolts Society members at Gates Fire Hall this past Sunday.
The Nuts and Bolts Society is a fund rais-ing group for the Canyon Life Museum in Mill City, a 100% volunteer run organiza-tion.
In the past the N&B held book sales and sock hops at what is now Ark Animal Care. When that space availability changed they decided to start a membership with annual dues to help fund the ongoing operating expenses of the museum - telephone, electricity, insurance, heat. Sunday was a social event for members to get together, enjoy each other’s com-pany and share ideas. The museum brought over findings from the remodelling efforts at the old bank building on the east end of Wall Street in Mill City, includ-ing old weathered documents, photos, reclaimed timber from ships, and oddly, a bed of nails. The Nuts and Bolts Society works in conjunction with the North Santiam Histor-ical a 501c3. Annual membership is $100 /year for individuals or small business or $125 per couple. Dues are100% deductible, and they highlight that there wil be no mandatory meetings or volunteer requests, just one or two social events per year.

Fairly high river levels continue below Packsaddle while Detroit Lake is being lowered for flood control reasons. The Lake is now 90 feet below summer level and has 20 more feet to drop. We should be at the low level around December first, and the river flow for the next two months will be natural. It will still vary because of rain and snow, and some new fish will still be arriving. Weather is expected to be vari-able. Some days will be dry and enjoyable. Some days will be inclement and people with planned river outings will want to ex-ercise plan B. The people who are able to work with flexible schedules have chances to enjoy the river in its’ seasonal glory. We still have brilliant reds and golds, although the leaves are falling fast. It is easy to spot game as the foliage disappears. Steelheaders Salem have adopted Minto Park as an improvement project, and Jim Johnson is making new picnic tables. Club volunteers are clearing out trails and picnic locations. The club will need to do many fund raising projects in order to pay for the materials. The public is welcome to offer suggestions about projects the Steelhead-ers might become involved with. Dana Roberts is the club President this year, and his phone is 503 364 7923 with email at [email protected]. Jim Johnson is at 503 363 8628 and [email protected]. Both men are eager to hear about potential projects, donations, and volunteer work.

doing the construction. They must com-plete an annual readiness for wartime mission training. “This project was a good fit be-cause it allows soldiers to gain valuable hands on experience with construction and heavy equipment.” stated First Class Sergeant Derek Fanning. Late season boating conditions should improve for visitors to Detroit Lake next summer. During project construction the public is asked to please stay
away as it is a training area with heavy equipment. There is a viewing area at the end of the Detroit Flats trail. Hikers need-ing to access Piety Island from Detroit Flats should remain to the left (south of the project) following the bank of the North Santiam River. The project is a cooperative ef-fort between US Forest Service, Federal Lakes Recreation Com-mittee for Detroit Lake, Oregon Army National Guard, and US Army Corps of Engineers.
