Tree termers honored
Do you know of anyone doing a
good job in taking care of a tree farm
or small woodlot? If so, please send or
call in your nominations for “Tree
Farmer of the Year” to the Columbia
County Extension office.
r
This is a yearly competition, noted
Extension Forester Chai Landgren,
and the county winner will be selected
by a group of local foresters and
landowners. These county winners
will then be judged statewide and
honored at a Portland Chamber of
Commerce Forum luncheon.
Landgren added that weight will be
given in the juding to how effectively
the property is being managed, as
well as how much the condition of the
area has been improved.
Anyone interested in participating
to call the Extension office at 397-
3462 for an application form.
Nominations are due by August 14.

will be from now on. The virus causes
severe diarrhea and vomiting in dogs.
Young dogs are particularly affected.
Death can result in the worst cases.
Local St. Helens veterinarians

It is recommended that dogs be
given a booster vaccination
immediately. Vaccine supplies are
ample now but could disappear
rapidly if the disease really got going
again. Protection given the vaccine
seems to last less than one year for
most dogs. Thus, re-vaccination prior
to the peak disease period is crucial.
Call your veterinarian if you have
any questions.
Hints to help fight inflation
The current high rate of inflation is a thorn in the side of nearly every U.S.
family. As a result of double-digit inflation, wages are falling farther and
farther behind the ever-increasing cost of living. The question on many
consumers’ minds is, “what can be done to reduce the effects of inflation?”
“The logical first step to take in bringing expenses in line with earnings is to
simply spend less,” says Charlotte Harter, Oregon State University
Extension economic education specialist. Although curbing expenditures is
not easy to do, a great deal of savings can often be achieved from simplifying
your lifestyle.
Before purchasing a product, ask these questions: Do I really need it to be
happy?, What could I use as a substitute?, How long will it last?, Do I really
need this product?
“In recent years, many people have purchased durable goods before they
needed them, believing that they were saving money by avoiding the price
increase on next year’s model,” Harter says.
“If waiting and ‘making do’ Emother year could have saved the finance
charges on borrowed money, are these consumers really saving? Bear in mind
that the interest rate on loans reflect the current rate as well as future
estimates of the rate of inflation.”
“During periods of inflation it’s a good idea to minimize cash holdings since
inflation represents a decrease in the purchasing power of cash. Keep only as
much money as necessary in a checking account or investigate NOW accounts
and interest-bearing checking accounts. Even the six percent return of a
savings account is better than nothing,” notes Harter.
Raising the amount of a deductible on auto and other insurance policies
could considerably decrease the cost of insursmee.
“Look at anticipated returns on investments carefully and try to select
those that will pay a return greater them the rate of inflation,” Harter
suggests. United States Savings Bonds, which pay six to eight percent
interest are an example of an investment that does not compete well with
inflation.
Certificates of deposit, Treasury bills and notes, money market certificates
or a knowledgeable investment in the stock market could keep funds growing
as fast as prices.
If possible, try to negotiate a cost of living clause in employment contracts.
Unions have been very successful in getting these included, but individuals
may find it more difficult.
“It’s certainly worth a try since a fixed salary means that the purchasing
power of the dollars earned decreases with each increase in the cost of living,”
she says.
“Examine retirement plans and pensions to determine if they are related to
the rate of inflation,” says Harter. Social Security is now indexed to increase
with the cost of living and, if possible, other retirement plans should also
include this feature.
Those persons hardest hit by inflation are"those on fixed incomes that do not
increase as prices escalate. The retirement income which seems adequate now
may not even purchase the necessities of life in the future, so protect those
golden yeEirs.
“Be aware of all these things when trying to cope with inflation,” Harter
urges. By curbing expenditures, making wise investments, adjusting
insurance policies, planning wisely for retirement, and securing a cost of living
clause in employment contracts, consumers can beat the inflationary spiral
and maintain their quality of life.
