The Days of No Gasoline Shortage
/
Rico, John
[928]
[RICO-1979-928]
OUR CHANGING TRAVEL HABITS - Now with gasoline in short supply it may be wise to turn back the clock and review some of our traveling habits. Perhaps we have all become "gasaholics," and need to be reminded that the billions of gallons. of gasoline we are now recklessly consuming cannot ever be replaced. It's not like a wheat crop failure in one season which can be rectified by a bumper crop in a following year [...]

Perhaps We Are Just a Bit Spoiled
/
Rico, John
[919]
[RICO-1979-919]
THE ROUTE WE TRAVEL - While it may be true that our present energy problem is proving Ulcerating to some motorists, it perhaps would be wise to re-examine some of the routes we had to travel to get where we are today.

Dried onions: Basic ingredient in K-rations
/
Delaplane, Kristin
[226]
[ECHOS-1995-226]
Information for this article came from the Vacaville Museum, the Vacaville Heritage Council and The Reporter archives. Some events in a town's history leave a more memorable mark than was ever suspected at the time. Such is the story of Basic Vegetable Products. The original Vacaville location of Basic's operation was a tin shed on the Uhl ranch, where Shock's Furniture Interiors and Longs Drugs are currently situated on Monte Vista Avenue

Railroad fire changed face of Suisun in 1906
/
Bowen, Jerry
[601]
[WAYITWAS-2005-601]
With all the disasters flooding the news, I might as well add one more, although it's nowhere near on the scale of Hurricane Katrina. It happened in 1906. No, this story isn't about the San Francisco earthquake on April 18, 1906. That was already old news, at least for the local folks.

Solano's library history is a story of steady growth
/
Goerke-Shrode, Sabine
[217]
[WAYITWAS-2004-217]
Over the years, the Solano County Library system and its wonderful, hard-working librarians have assisted me in many intricate research projects, often procuring obscure books and information at short notice.

Old Time News Writing
/
Wichels, Ernest
[775]
[WICHELS-1963-775]
Like women's fashions, automobile bodies and hair-dos, the style of reporting news also changes with the years. In our research the past few weeks, poring over the century-old editions of our Vallejo newspapers, we have gleaned some amusing stories. The most interesting aspect is that the city editor, in the olden days, always editorialized in his reporting. Today no city desk would dare to do so.

Snapshots of an era
/
Bowen, Jerry
[733]
[WAYITWAS-2007-733]
Among the collections at the Vacaville Heritage Council and the Solano County Genealogy Society at the Old Town Hall on East Main Street are yearbooks from Solano County Schools dating back as far as the late 1890s. These publications are a treasure that help historians gain some insight into past attitudes, styles of dress, and pride in school and community and to perhaps learn something valuable from the "good old days."
