One of the neighbors querried about how would they like to have a club house? Plans began to jell. Robinson says that Mrs. Ruby Wil son is primarily responsible for tne promotion of the idea origin ally, and arranged for the begin ning. Today, the club house consists Ui two rooms: the main one 20’ by 32’ plus the store room of 8’ by 20’ making the building 20’ by 40’. The main room is equipped with wood working benches on one side with hand tools, vices, electrical equipment, benches and a hot plate on the other. By Laura Olson Some folks call the new 4-H club house out at Silk Creek a "neighborhood fixit shop" which is correct, insofar as the term goes. Actually the building is used by youngsters throughout a good por tion of the South Lane area. 4-H leader C. J. Robinson says that 25 to 30 young people make reg ular use of the building. Five clubs currently met there (they include clubs with members interested in woodworking, sew ing and electricity i. Club members come. for example, from Rat Creek, Delight Valley and, of course, Silk Creek. They drop by, in addition to regular club work, I to fix their bikes, mount deer horns and ask Robinson just how to complete some task that is currently stumping them. List of Names Emit« ss Robinson says that there were 35 donors responsible for the building. Some of the donors were individuals, some firms. The list of names is endless. And the nicest thing about the club house, Robinson will tell you is that "nothing was asked for, it came out of the goodness of the person’s heart.” Should you wish to visit the club house, which is open all the time for activities, you’ll find it about five milt's west of Cottage Grove, just off the Lorane High way on Hazelton Road.

Cattle Numbers Hit New High Cattle numbers in Oregon, the U.S., and the world have reached a record high this year. Ed Coles, extension livestock marketing specialist at Oregon Stalo college, reports that on Jan uary 1. 1954, Oregon had a total of 1.429.000 cattle, the U.S. had 94.600,000 and the world about 856,000,000 cattle. As nations go, India ranks first in total cattle numbers with near ly 200.000,000 head. Cattle in In dia are used primarily for draft purposes. The U.S. is considered first in lx*ef production in the world. Coles says the marked upswing in cattle production in the world since World War II is showing signs of slowing down There was onlv an increase of 7,000,000 head during 1953 as compared with 19.- 000,000 head a year earlier. In 1951, the increase was 24,000,000 head. This slower rate of Increase may lie an indication that cattle num- bera will reach a peak this year in the U.S . Coles explains. performance!
