I will try to make this column of general interest to all -- a column written for Oregon people of this area--speak- ing of Oregon I wonder how many of you have really explored this wonderful state of ours. I can not help but feel that this must have been a chosen spot of our creator, so lavish are our moun tains, the beauty of our low ly ing hills, so blessed with boun tiful forests filled with wild crea tures big and small. We live in the hills six miles from Sandy as the crow flies, but 16 miles by road. Many a night my husband and I sit on our front porch in the wee small hours of the morning. Then you may hear the rub-rub of deer antlers against an alder, the too-hooing of the owls, the sharp shrill bark of a fox, or the mournful howl ing of the coyotes and once in a while the lone cry of a wolf or the squalling of a roaming cougar, With the dawn the forests become alive with other sounds, the song of mating birds in the spring, the drumming of grouse and the raucous caw of the crow. All of this and more is ours because we have chosen to call this wonderful state home. Many berry farmers are hap py to see the sun. Growers are in need of pickers, if you have even a few hours you can help Boulevard Lumber's prevent loss of crops, besides making a piece of pin money for yourselfs, by picking even a short time each day. The Ed Whites have painted their home a beautiful white. They live on the turn-off going to Sandy from Estacada. Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Ruhl hope to complete their new home be fore to long. Mr. Ruhl works as a painter, his wife is a beauty operator. They have two small children and I am sure that they will be an asset to the community. We note that the bulb growers have harvested most of the daf fodils and are now preparing to replant. Fescue growers report a good harvest of seed despite inclement weather. Some farmers suffered an acute loss of hay due to our rains, hope that there is less loss than has been reported. A few days of good sunshine may sal vage some. So many of my friends have asked me what causes their hy- dranges to become pink? Acid or too much lime? I became con fused myself so looked it up in my old reliable Better Garden ing and it’s too much lime, gals that brings out the pink. Some epsom salts will help keep them that sought after blue, and lets not forget now is the time to feed our roses. Keep an eye out for old bottles, if you are a collector of antiques. I find that the dealers are real ly going for them, some even have bottle trees. You may pick a bottle for a set price from the tree. The ones that are highly prized are old medicine bottles that have name of product print ed in the glass, or old saddle flasks. not any bear so far. Have any of you grown Sequoia potatoes? They are enormous in size and appear to have a strong disease resistance. I planted afew this spring and if I can judge by the vines, we will harvest some Paul Bunyon spuds. The Teetie and Dave Gain yard is cheery with masses of beau tiful nasturiums in full bloom. Tootle tells us of a pleasant trip around Hood Canal, Washington. They were accompanied by friends Ernest and Alma Phillips, and brother Leon Sr. of Sandy and C. E. Dave of Route 1. They report bad weather, but low tides, so they enjoyed both oysters and clams and a good time was enjoyed by all. Kenneth Flath reports a good crop of raspberries in spite of our weather. The Flaths have re modeled their home finishing their living room with beautiful wood paneling. Vicki Flath, who is a Sophomore this year, has been earning pin money by baby sit- ting. It is interesting to find that our Sandy Post is read many miles from home. Wayne Bergland, who is in the navy and stationed at San Diego, welcomes our paper every week. I am hoping that you will enjoy this column, Wavne. Army PFC Alpheus C. Howe, 19, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur E. Howe.
