Polk County Living Polk County Itemizer-Observer • June 1, 2016 9A Think about bees when planting Warmer temperatures this spring are generally promoting early flowering of plants as well as moving up the timetable for polli- nator activity. Now is a good time for homeowners in Oregon to take steps that will “bee friendly” to a very important ally in the insect world. “We are starting to see a lot of bees emerging, par- ticularly native pollina- tors,” says Rose Kachadoo- rian, an entomologist with the Oregon Department of Agriculture’s Pesticides Program. “Honeybees are showing up in the urban environment, too. It’s a perfect time for home- owners to start looking at the plants in their yard and garden to make sure they are pollinator-friendly.” Doing some research ahead of the purchase is helpful, with many web- sites providing good infor- mation on which plants are best for pollinators. Most garden centers are also knowledgeable and can di- rect homeowners to the ideal plants. There is also good information on the la- bels of the plants them- selves, including the timing of blooms. The marketplace h a s re s p o n d e d t o t h e heightened awareness of pollinator protection. Once the plants are pur- B RUCE P OKARNEY Columnist chased, putting them into the ground should be strategic. Just like last year, dry conditions may prevail this summer in many parts of Oregon, requiring wise u s e o f w a t e r. P l a c i n g plants together that have the same water require- ments can be more effi- cient. One component of nectar is water, so bee- friendly plants need to be fairly well hydrated even during a hot and dry sum- mer. The homeowner’s job is only partially done once t h e p l a n t s a re i n t h e ground. Maintaining the plants is important to sustaining p o l l i n a t o r a c t i v i t y. If pesticides need to be used, homeowners ab- solutely need to read and follow the label. The US En- vironmental Protection Agency approves the lan- guage on pesticide labels and has clarified them to include pollinator-spe- cific information. Certain products containing neoni- cotinoids — a special class of pesticides — are re- quired to contain a bee ad- P ATTY T AYLOR D UTCHER Columnist please call 503-551-7687 or 503-838-18ll. — The 2016 edition of Ex- plore Polk County was in- cluded in last week’s Itemiz- er-Observer, and is more in- formative than ever, with more than 100 pages of things to do and places to go. It’s always our go-to book whenever we have friends and family visiting the area, and a great re- source for all kinds of serv- ices in our local communi- ties. It’s very tempting to sit back with a cup of coffee and get lost between the pages, and plan a summer’s PUBLIC NOTICE eMILy MenTzeR/Itemizer-Observedr Now is a good time for homeowners in Oregon to take steps that will “bee friendly” to a very important ally in the insect world. visory section that includes a bee icon informing the user that the product is a potential hazard to bees. The label language pro- hibits use of the pesticide product when bees are for- aging and plants are in bloom. It also highlights the importance of avoiding drift during application. This information is consis- tent with messages deliv- ered by ODA the past cou- ple of years. The collective steps taken by all Oregoni- ans can go a long way in providing a safe haven for pollinators.

Grandparenting has changed a great deal in re- cent years, with people be- coming more active and in- volved in their grandchil- dren’s lives. Dr. Manoogian will discuss how adults in mid-to later-life can enjoy these cherished times, and deal with some of the chal- lenges and responsibilities that go with the roles of grandparents who are par- enting their children’s chil- dren. — We missed the Memorial Day events in MI Town this year as Don’s daughter and son-in-law, Liz and Mark Hubert invited family mem- bers to their vacation home on Ochoco Reservoir to cel- ebrate a certain someone’s milestone birthday. I also want to wish that same someone a very happy 32nd anniversary. We’ve shared so many life events — deaths and marriages and births, laughter and tears, and are looking forward to whatever adventures are ahead of us. I wouldn’t have missed it for anything. PEDEE NEWS Since I was at a meeting in The Dalles and didn’t re- port last week, I wanted to be sure to mention that Ma- hayla Benoit celebrated her sixth birthday with her mother Lana and other family members at grand- mother Sheri Tilden’s house a week ago.

The ChipGrass Band opened the bluegrass con- cert for the Bethel Moun- tain Band, who sang folk, country, and gospel songs for an hour and a half. Dur- ing intermission, the church served ice cream and an array of 20 pies and desserts brought by several people in the community. The Bethel Mountain Band, based in Salem and under the leadership of Will Barn- hart, of Rickreall, has had concerts all over the U.S., but ChipGrass is just get- ting its start here in Pedee. Members include Chip North, Adam and Emily Coe, Daniel Russell, Nic and Cassandra Heller, Pam Bur- bank, and Tim Barnhart (no relation to Will). They were quite good, but I’m not sure they have a big enough repertoire to go out into the world yet. Pick up & Drop Off Reference is made to that certain line of credit trust deed (the "Trust Deed") dated Octo- ber 26, 2005, executed by Mark S. Oehler and Lynn C. Oehler (the "Grantor") to U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Asso- ciation (the "Trustee"), whose mailing address is 111 S.W. Fifth Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97204, to secure payment and performance of certain obliga- tions of Grantor to U.S. Bank National Association (the "Ben- eficiary"), including repayment of a U.S. Bank Equiline Agree- ment dated October 26, 2005, in the principal amount of $120,000 (the "Agreement"). The Trust Deed was recorded on December 21, 2005, as In- strument No. 2005-021634 in the official real property records of Polk County, Ore- gon. The legal description of the real property covered by the Trust Deed is as follows: The Southerly 1/2 of Tract Numbered 17, CLIFFMOOR VIL- LAGE, Polk County, Oregon. No action has been institut- ed to recover the obligation, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the Trust Deed or, if such action has been institut- ed, such action has been dis- missed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7).

By reason of said default, Beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the Trust Deed im- mediately due and payable which sums are as follows: (a) the principal amount of $119,774.89 as of February 17, 2016, (b) accrued interest of $21,302.47 as of February 17, 2016, and interest accruing thereafter on the principal amount at the rate set forth in the Agreement until fully paid, (c) plus any late charges accru- ing thereafter and any other ex- penses or fees owed under the Agreement or Trust Deed, (d) amounts that Beneficiary has paid on or may hereinafter pay to protect the lien, including by way of illustration, but not limi- tation, taxes, assessments, in- terest on prior liens, and insur- ance premiums, and (e) ex- penses, costs and attorney and trustee fees incurred by Benefi- ciary in foreclosure, including the cost of a trustee's sale guarantee and any other envi- ronmental or appraisal report. By reason of said default, Beneficiary and the Successor Trustee have elected to fore- close the trust deed by adver- tisement and sale pursuant to ORS 86.705 to ORS 86.815 and to sell the real property identi- fied above to satisfy the obliga- tion that is secured by the Trust Deed. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the undersigned Succes- sor Trustee or Successor Trustee's agent will, on July 22, 2016, at one o'clock (1:00) p.m., based on the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, just outside the main entrance of the Polk County Courthouse, 850 Main Street, Dallas, Oregon, sell for cash at public auction to the highest bidder the interest in said real property, which Grantor has or had power to convey at the time of the execu- tion by Grantor of the Trust Deed, together with any interest that Grantor or the successors in interest to Grantor acquired after the execution of the Trust Deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that any person named in ORS 86.778 has the right, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dis- missed and the Trust Deed rein- stated by payment to Benefici- ary under the Trust Deed, of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the princi- pal as would not then be due had no default occurred), and by curing any other default com- plained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or Trust Deed and, in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance nec- essary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and Trust Deed, together with Trustee and attor- ney fees not exceeding the amounts provided by ORS 86.778. In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, and the word "grantor" in- cludes any successor in inter- est of grantor, as well as any other person owing an obliga- tion, the performance of which is secured by the Trust Deed, and the words "trustee" and "beneficiary" include their re- spective successors in interest, if any. Without limiting the trustee's disclaimer of representations or warranties, Oregon law re- quires the trustee to state in this notice that some residen- tial property sold at a trustee's sale may have been used in manufacturing methampheta- mines, the chemical compo- nents of which are known to toxic. Prospective purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential dan- ger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee's sale.
