OSU to offer six-week
financial planning course
Knowing where you ore, and
where you arc going, in financial
terms, continues to be important for
managers of farms and ranches in the
Northwest. Many farmers are look
ing at investment opportunities
nowadays. These may involve cither
debt or equity financing. In cither
case, it behooves the producer to
know whether the changes will
strengthen or weaken the financial
position and performance of the en
terprise. The basic tools for this analysis
are two financial statements: the in
come statement and the balance shcel
Add to that cash flow budgeting for
forward planning and you have a
pretty complete arsenal for knowing
the possible effects of management
changes. This is important for the
operator's own peace of mind as well
as for convincing lenders or outside
investors.
Oregon State University Exten
sion Service is offering a six week
short course on these essential ele
ments of financial analysis and
planning for agricultural businesses.
For those who arc interested, two
hours of college credit will be offered
through Oregon State University's

tribal member hiring to general em
ployment, contracting, subcontract

vices. Following are those resolu
tions. "Whereas, The Tribes and Bands
of Middle Oregon have exercised

EVERYONE WELCOME!!
Event strengthens culture, families
One Sunday, Herb Stwyer, Sr., recognized by many as one
of the greatest leaders of the Confederated Tribes of Warm
Springs, addressed the people at the Simnasho Longhouse.
He explained the reason for the Lincoln's Birthday Powwow
and celebration. Following is his statement.
"Several years ago, I told our powwow committee that now
we must have a powwow and pay prize money. The reason
we have to do this is to encourage our young people to dance
and sing, keep our families together and carry out the Indian
culture. We will have to organize ourselves to start fund
raising so we can pay the dancers and drummers, and feed
and take care of them while they are here. If we treat them
good, we will get good dancers and singers, maybe World
Champions. Our children will watch and hear the best and be
inspired by them. They will want to become world champions
too.
"But even more important than the money and the contests
will be the fun and enjoyment people and families will be
having. That will be because they will be learning that they are
proud of who they are....Indian people. That's what we want
frr nur rnmmnnttv and DeoDle. to be Droud of who we are so
we can be happy. Our children
. . .
Their parents and grandparents win return to tne oia ways in
an effort to help their children. They'll return to dancing, to
beadwork. They will learn themselves as they strive to help
their children. Lincoln's Powwow will help do that.
"I think Abraham Lincoln's birthday would be a good time
to this because:
He believed in freedom. That freedom allows us to carry
out our Indian culture.
He believed in equality and brotherhood.
Many people died to get freedom and equality, and that
the living must carry out what those before us started....
That is why we have Lincoln's Powwow."

four year olds
They love to play with other four
year olds. There is a good deal of
commanding and demanding. Brag
ging and name calling are common.
I our year olds are "out of bounds"
in: motor behavior, verbal loves to
talk. ..tendency to run subjects into
the ground and to make up silly words,
or to rhyme words. I las a great spurt
of imagination. Has no sense of
property rights; thinks possession is
ownership. Four's motor drive is
high.
Loves variety, needs a change of
pace. Play and behavior can easily
deteriorate into silliness if not con
trolled. PARENTING SKILLS FOR A
FOUR YEAR OLD You can use
this new fascination with language
to play all sorts of word games. They
especially enjoy humor, exaggera
tion, and nonsense rhymes.
Because of the personality char
acteristics of a four year old they do
need firmness. Have some new ac
tivity in mind to interest and lure
away from a potentially troublesome
situation. You need to anticipate and
present something new. Isolation
from the group is an effective disci
pline device.
