The exhibit is called,
"Women in the Round: Con

Cylinder Baskets from the Co
lumbia River Basin." The ex
hibit, curatcd by Bill Mercer of
the Pordand Art Museum, is the
first museum exhibition dedi
cated to this form of Native
American cylinder baskets
unique to the region.
"Ranging from traditional
materials to the unexpected use
of yarn, grass and patterns
based on urban landscapes, the
work demonstrates how the tra
ditional form is being revitalized
and reinterpreted," said Mercer.
The Museum at Warm

about four to five miles from
Warm Springs, is a home garden
that is lovingly grown by Danita
Macy and her family.
Danita has a wonderful vari
ety of plants including perenni
als, hydrangeas, roses, tulips,
bulbs, some annuals and a Japa
nese garden.
One of her secrets is that she
talks to her plants, encouraging
them to grow and bloom.
Her favorite plants and one
of her best successes are the
roses, which are not easy to
grow in Central Oregon.
Her secrets include buying
the right plants and pruning in
the spring for great summer
blooms.
' She has cold hardy, miniature,
floribunda and tea roses and is
particularly fond of the red, or

Danita has a growing list of
garden improvements for next

She will create window boxes
with spring blooming crocus

perennials for summer and fall

The hydrangeas will get a
new drip water system.
She is designing a Tuscan
Mediterranean garden area,
where she will relocate some of
the roses and add lavender and
other purple blooming shrubs,
perhaps catmint.
A pond is also on the list. It

Imagine the disappointment
when the children, who had

to pick tomatoes to make chili

found the plants bare.
And when it happened again

sad to know that someone had
taken them just as they were ripe

If you are a new gardener,
good plants to begin with are
bulbs and Shasta daisies, because
they are easy to grow and give
great spring and summer

favorite pastime.

James Redden reminded federal
agencies last week that four
dams on the Iowcr Snake River
could be breached if all else fails

Redden's warning appeared
in his final order on how the
federal government should pro

Snake rivers. In a detailed follow-up
to what he told attorneys

SPOKANE (AP) - The state

tribe to pursue plans for a ca

NOAA Fisheries, which has
jurisdiction over protected
salmon, had asked for two years,
but Redden said an extension
could only be considered if the
agencies need to weigh the con
tributions of environmentalists,
tribes and other groups.
The judge, however, said the
agencies often "seem offended
at the thought of doing more
than merely listening to others."
Redden ordered the agencies
to report progress to him every

Columbia Basin because of the
combined effects of dams, over
fishing, logging, grazing, irriga

Last May, Redden rejected
the Bush administration's $6 bil
lion plan to protect salmon. The
plan relied heavily on installing
huge fish slides on dams to keep
migrating young salmon out of
the turbines.
The new plan could call for
spilling more water over dams
and increasing river flows to
help young salmon reach the
ocean. But that could mean
higher electric rates in the Pa
cific Northwest.

states, said Rand, an associate
law professor at the University
of North Dakota. The Spokane
compact's 35 percent maximum
tops the 25 percent in Connecti
cut that had been "sort of the
de facto ceiling," Rand said.
No other tribe has a revenue
sharing agreement with Washing
ton state, aldiough some pay casino-impact
fees to local govern
ments. Tribes could use the com
pact as leverage, too, since it sets
the stage for the Spokanes to build
an Airway Heights casino near
downtown Spokane, more than
25 miles from their reservation.
