COUNTY

SANDY, OREGON
Serving Eastern Clackamas
County Since 1911
The Clackamas county ex
tension service with
assist
ance from both
rural and
urban citizens of this county,
is conducting
a
program
planning conference d uring
the winter months of the new
year. The conference is divi
ded in
twelve committees
each of which will serve an
industry or discuss problems
of importance.
This type of thing is
not
new to Clackamas county.In
the past this type of planning
was called an economic con
ference.
The rural people
have conducted similar con
ferences each 10 years begin
ning in 1925. The last one
was held in 1946.
Committee members of the
past were almost exclusively
rural. But because
of
the
rapid growth of urban popu
lation 1956 committees will
see urban folks well
repre
sented.
The following
committees
have met or will meet
for
deliberation:

Clackamas county farm op

the
wounds caused by the

November
freezeup.
Nor do they yet
know of the extent of these
j wounds or the time it
will
| take them to heal
entirely.
But we do obtain a little in
formation on the subject as
time progresses.
Charlie Finch, Garfield, was
in last week
and reported
that all of next year’s filbert
crop has been destroyed— at
least in
his neighborhood.
‘I expect to have to cut
off
all of last season’s
boysen-
berry cane growth,” he
ad
ded.
‘This means no
boy-
senberry crop for [me next
summer.
And where the
wind blew the
snow away
our strawberry
plants are
gone.
Prune trees appear to
' be damaged to some extent
and we will have no cherries
in 1956”
“Strawberry
plantings
seem to have been severely
damaged in unprotected lo
cations in the Damascus ar

THE NEW BEL AIR SPORT COUPE
W ho tvouldn’ t mistake this new
Chevrolet for a high-priced car!
It looks strictly “upper bracket”
with its bold new Motoramic styl
ing . . . its longer, lower hood . . .
its proud new full-width grille.
But, even beyond the costly ap
pearance of its beautiful Body by
Fisher, Chevy gives the high-priced
cars a run for their money. It brings
you lightning acceleration for safer
passing. Horsepower ranges up to
205! All engines now have hydrau
lic-hushed valve lifters.
Besides, you get safety door
latches in all models. You can also
have seat belts, with or without
shoulder harness, and instrument
panel padding at extra cost.
Come highway-test a Chevrolet!
