Coastal fish are prepared only for a relatively short trip inland. If a coastal river fish were artificially hatched in the Snake River, it would never make it to its release point. Pick the right site Successful gardens are ones established in the right location. Here are some suggestions for finding the best gardening spot. One of the prime needs of vege table gardens is sunshine. None of the vegetable plants that most gar deners like to eat will grow suc cessfully with less than six hours of sunlight a day. Vegetable plants prefer locations where they receive 10 or more hours of sun a day through the summer. Once you find the part of your yard where the most light is avail able, check the soil. Is it well drained, fertile enough to grow weeds, and dark colored to absorb heat in early spring? These are important factors that will help your garden grow its best. To check the drainage, dig a hole a foot deep, fill it with water and see how long it takes to drain away. If the hole empties in two or three hours, the drainage is adequate, but if the water is still there tomorrow, do some drainage work or plant on raised beds or in con tainers. Soil fertility will vary. But if the ground will grow a good crop of weeds it will also grow vegetables and flowers. Less is better for bulbs Given the right care, spring flowering bulbs such as daffodils, tulips, hyacinths and crocus will stay in better condition for bloom ing next year. In most cases this means leaving the foliage on individual flower plants rather than cutting it off. The leaves provide the bulb with food needed to keep the plant healthy. Leaves can be safely cut off, but only after they have ripened and are no longer actively manufactur ing food for the plant. When the foliage is cut from tul ips, either separately or along with the flowers, the plant won't pro duce any blooms in the next grow ing season. Other spring bulbs given this kind of treatment will send up IIS ' j o $ n ' - " . .

But how docs a leader make 4-H the best possible ex perience for members? We suggest using a "child-centered approach." The child-centered approach ap plies to all aspects of the 4-H program and means that the focus is on the interests and needs of Nearly all soil in Oregon will respond favorably to additions or organic matter, such as manure. If in doubt about fertility of your soil, have it analyzed. Contact your local county office of the OSU Extension Service for soil testing information. Finally, when selecting the site for your garden, consider con venience to the kitchen, to water ing facilities and to your garden tools. A garden near the kitchen will be used more, and more care will be given to growing vegetables. Buying insurance can be confusing, expensive Insurance is one of the most important purchases you will ever make. Here are a few guidelines to help assure that your insurance will meet your needs when you have to make a claim: Read before you sign. If something is unclear, get ah explanation from your agent or company. . Get it in writing. The only guar antee of coverage is in your con tract. Ask your agent to walk you through your policy and explain leaves but produce no flowers in the following season. Tulips also benefit if their seed capsules are picked off when they finish flowering. This will cause the plant to devote its energy to storing Get rid of For many homeowners spring's warm weather brings the unsightly arrival of ants inside your house or outside along the house founda tion. This time of year ants are look ing for new nesting sites. All ants, including carpenter and household ants, will have wings in the spring. When they're swarming, there to 4-H leaders Hcr in his work by imposing your personality. -Dont regard the final product as significant. -Dont expose the 4-Hcr to color ing books or patterns which make him insensitive. -Dont appreciate the4-Her's work indescriminately. Dont correct wrong production. -Dont expect you 4-ller's art al ways to be pleasing. -Dont prefer one 4-Hcr's work to that of another. -Dont restrict your 4-Hcrs work by not giving him the proper work ing space. -Dont compare your 4-Hcr's art. -Dont encourage contests which youth grow youth. Members learn to: Set their own goals; make plans to reach their goals; carry out their' plans; and assess progress toward reach ing their goals. This approach docs not mean that children do whatever they want. Rather, parents and leaders help youth develop decision mak ing skills with guidance, under standing, encouragement and re cognition. It is especially applica ble to forming general club rules, as well as project and activity plans involving 4-H 'ers. The child-centered approach en courages the child's natural curiosi ty, enthusiasm, enquisitiveness, energy, and willingness to do tasks. Parents and leaders can help by: considering individual needs and desires of youth; listening to what youth are saying; seeing things as a child sees them; providing oppor tunities for 4-H members to be involved in activities and events; helping youth decide what is rea sonable; accepting youth for what they are, rather than what you expect them to be; involving all members in deciding. the coverage, its limits and condi tions. Get a copy of every document you sign as you apply for and buy insurance. Never pay in cash unless you get a '''written receipt.' Whenever possi ble, pay your insurance company directly. Keep a copy of your receipt, both sides of a money order, or your check. Read your policy as soon as you receive it to be sure that what you receive is the same thing for food for next year's flowers rather than to ripening seed. Leave the plant's flower stems standing. Wa ter the plants until the leaves begin to yellow. the carpenter ants really isn't much you can do. If ants start coming and going from one area, then you can fight back with ant baits or sprays. The sight of carpenter ants causes more concern to home owner than other ants. Carpenter ants can be up to one-half inch in length and are usually dark red or black. One or two carpenter ants 71 use pncs and rewards as stimula tion. Dont impose your standard upon the 4-Hcr's standard when you work with him. -Dont hang only the 'best ex ample of your 4-Hcr'i art on the wall. Dont show the 4-Hcr'i 'how to paint.
