"We encourage all Native Americans who are members of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs in Jefferson County to contact the local ASCS office to make sure they are listed as eligible voters, and to get information about the nomination and election process for serving on the county ASC committee," Brown said. Local ASCcommitteesareelected by eligible farmers and ranchers to administer federal farm programs at county and community levels. "The election of farmers and ranchers who will best serve the farm and ranch community is essential to all farmers and ranchers," Brown said. "Local Dogs are dangerous in packs farmerrancher-elected committees are the fundamental group in farm program administration and the voice for local producers." Farm programs administered by ASCcommitteesincludecommodity price support loans and payments; the establishment of bases, yields allotments and quotas; the farm owned grain reserve; conservation cost-sharing; incentive and indemnity payments, and disaster assistance. Ranch and farm owners, operators, tenants and sharecroppers of legal voting age may vote in committee elections if they are eligible to participate in any ASCS program. Almost anyone eligible to take part in ASCS farm programs also may be a candidate for the county committee, Brown noted Nominating petitions can be obtained from the Jefferson County ASCS office. A petition must be signed by three eligible voters to nominate a committee candidate, and nominations should include a statement that the candidate has agreed to serve if elected. Fanners and ranchers may circulate or sign nominating petitions for as many candidates as they choose. Nomination by petition will take place from October 6 through October 31. This year's election will take place by mail ballot from November 25 through December 5. Voters who do not receive ballots in the mail may get them from the county ASCS office. "To ensure that our local committees reflect the concerns of all the producers we serve, we strongly urge all eligible voters in the farm and ranch community to take part in this election," Brown said, and to contact our office for more information.

Have you ever played the game "What If? You know the game where someone says, "What if the dike broke and there was water rushing toward your house, what would you grab from your house"? Well, I'm going to play "What IF with an incident that occurred this weekend in Greeley Heights. Here's the scenario: "What if" its early Sunday morning and you're busy cooking breakfast while the kids, Johnnie, age 2 and Cathy, age 4 are watching TV. Johnnie wonders outside to play with the kitty but since your yard is fenced you're not worried. All of a sudden, you hear Johnnie screaming and you look out the kitchen window. All you can see is a pack of dogs over in the comer. You don't hear Johnnie any more and you rush out of the house. The dogs run off and jump over or climb under the fence. There in the comer is Johnnie, he is limp and bleeding a lot from several bite marks around his throat and face. You pick him up and rush inside to call for help. All you can think of is for God to please not let your baby die. The Warm Subscription to Spilyay Tymoo Send subscription to: SPILYAY TYMOO, P.O. BOX 870, WARM SPRINGS, OR 97761 NAME ADDRESS CITY STATE ZIP Springs Ambulance is at your house within a matter of minutes and they grab the baby and rush to the hospital . Despite all your efforts and all their efforts, your son dies due to the severity of injuries from the bites. Ambulance personnel try to comfort you but there is nothing anyone can do. In a matter minutes your life and your entire family's life has been changed dramatically. What really happened this weekend? A pack of 7-8 dogs climbed under or jumped over a fence in the Greeley Heights area. The dogs attacked two pygmy goats. The owner chased off the dogs and found one goat dead and the other dying. These were family pets that were kept inside a fence. If dogs can attack the goats with such vigor, what would happen to a small child? Please don't let the scenario above take place before you realize that there is a dog problem in this community and do something about it. Let the Tribal Council know that they need to take some action to protect the children of this community and do something about it. Let the Tribal Council know that they need to take some action to protect the children of this community. Dogs can become aggressive when they are running in packs. With children walking to and from school, the potential for an incident similar to the one above is ripe. Let's do something before a child does get badly hurt or killed. Languages-continued from page 2 Students will attend workshops on Peruvian crafts and language, tribal costumes and murals, Tlingit native language and crafts, the history of Pecos Pueblo, contemporary and traditional Indian music, Indian sign language, getting on the Internet, Hualapai language, Navajo drama and ethnobotany. An especially important part of the student program, according to Emerson, is the time these future leaders devote to developing their own ideas on Native language preservation and presenting these ideas to the conference leaders. Evening programs for all participants include a keynote address by Buffy St. Marie; a performance of Yupik, Tlingit and Inupiat songs and dance; New Zealand Maori dancers; and a visit to the starts with ethnoastronomer Dr. Greg Cajete (Santa Clara Pueblo). The final day's highlights are two panels which summarize the results of the conference and give direction for the next steps, they are "Setting a National Agenda for Youth." The Native American Language Issues Institute (NALI) is a non-profit organization chartered in 1986 to examine Native language and cultural concerns. It had its beginnings in 1980 when a group of concerned professional language trainers met to discuss language issues. This year's gathering is the organization's 14th annual conference.
