JIT IRBIGONSUCCESS
Club Work Big Feature;
0. S. C. Scholarships
Awarded.
(Mrs. A. T. Hereim, Boardman
Correspondent.)
The most successful North Mor
row County fair yet held closed Sat
urday night with a big dance with
O'Sullivan's orchestra playing. The
fair was held at Irrigon September
6-7, with a good display of products
of the project The monstrosities
in tie vegetable line were mon
strous, the sunflower heads were
almost as large as wash tubs, the
melons looked luscious, the fancy
work displayed excellent handiwork,
the grapes looked tempting. That
canning is not a lost art in this mod
ern age was evident by the rows on
end of fruits, jellies, preserves,
pickles and meats, but that the mod
ern housewife prefers to have her
bread baked by a baker instead of
the drudgery of the old method was
shown by the lack of entries in that
department only three loaves being
entered and one plate of rolls. How
ever, there were a number of deli
cious-looking cakes and pies.
Jess Badger was superintendent
of the vegetables, Frank Frederick
son of the fruits and melons, Chas.
Saling of the farm crops, Hugh
Grimm of bees and honey, Roscoe
Williams of poultry. Mrs. Geo. Has
kell and Miss Snow McCoy domes
tic art, Mrs. Smith flowers and
plants which were exceptionally
beautiful, Mrs. Reiks, Mrs. Alquist
and Mrs. Nick Faler domestic sci
ence which had the greatest num
ber of entries, Geo .Haskell live
stock, always a small exhibit for
local ranchers do not like to take
their milk cows away from home
for it always means less milk in the
pail for a day or so.
Outstanding was the boys' and
girls' club work, Mrs. Lucy Rodgers
superintendent of sewing and cook
ing exhibits and Chas. W. Smith
superintendent of boys' exhibits.
That Mrs. Rodgers and Mr. Smith
are beginning to see the fruits of
their labors in this work was shown
by the fact that there were 98 ex
hibitors this year. Last year where
one calf and a few sheep were
shown, this year there were 19
calves and 25 sheep. Irrigon de
serves special praise for her club
work, most of her clubs completing
work 100 per cent To Mrs. W. C.
Isom who had charge of sewing,
Mrs. L Coryell, cooking, Frank
Frederickson, sheep, and Mr. Leicht,
calf, should go much credit for this
success. W. O. King, leader of the
Boardman calf and lamb clubs, had
an excellent showing, most of his
boys and girls also completing their
work. A truck load of calves and
sheep were taken from here. All
the first prizes in the lamb club
went to Boardman members. It is
hot here in the summer and chil
dren lose interest unless they have
constant encouragement, help and
prodding on the part of both par
ents and leader. There were 98 ex
hibitors this year. Miss Helen Cow
gill of O. S. C. judged the sewing
and cooking and Richard Kuhener
also from the college judged the
sheep and calf club work.
Prize winners in the various div
isions were: sewing, division 1,
Francine King first, Bessie Wilson
Francine King, Boardman, first,
Bessie Wilson, Irrigon, second
Francine was the only girl to com
plete her work in this club; division
2 sewing, Dorothy Isom, .Irrigon,
first, Murl Farrens, Hardman, sec
ond; cooking division 1, Norine Ol
son, Boardman, first, Lillian Hango,
Boardman, second; division 2, Dor
othy Isom, Irrigon, first, Eleanor
Corey, Irrigon, second. Owen Bleak
man of Hardman received first for
his work in the garden club and his
sister Neva second.'
In the Iamb club Delbert Machan
of Boardman received first for the
best ewe raiBed lamb for market,
and Freda Frederickson of Irrigon
was second. John Partlow, Board
man, had the best bummer lamb
for breeding purposes, and Donald
Isom, Irrigon, had second best
George Wicklander of Boardman
had the best bummer lamb for
market purposes, and Geo. Graves,
Boardman, the best ewe raised lamb
for breeding purposes. George
Wicklander received the blue rib
bon for the best bummer lamb for
market, Clayton Shane, Boardman,
second. Clayton had an especially
well trained lamb which "led like
a lamb." That a bummer lamb hai
an equal chance with a ewe-raised
lamb was shown by some of the fine
specimens exhibited. The boys and
girls showed a lack of training in
-handling their animals at judging
time but since this was their first
attempt they will no doubt show
marked improvement next year.
The calves were shown in four div
isions, the Jersey Jr. blue ribbon
going to Mabel Cool of lone with
Ernest Johnsted of Irrigon second.
Jersey Sr. first went to Arthur Col
lins of Irrigon and second to Calvin
Allen, also of Irrigon. Wiley Bene
fiel had the best Holstein in the
senior class and Kenneth Duggan,
Boardman, second. Delbert Machan
of Boardman won first in the Hol
stein Jr., and Verna Jones of Irri
gon second.
Through the efforts of County
Agent Smith money was raised
from various sources contributed
by Heppner banks, business bouses
and interested farmers for the
champion in each division, and a
$15 club scholarship to attend sum
mer school at O. S. C. will be given.
The fortunate winners of these
scholarships are Eleanor Carey, Ir
rigon cooking; Dorothy Isom, Irri
gon sewing; Owen Bleakman,
Hardman garden; George Graves,
Boardman sheep; Mabel Cool, lone
calf; Myrtle Green, Eight Mile
poultry.
Mrs. Cool of lone has offered a
purebred Jersey calf to the winner
of the champion calf next year.
Saturday morning the 4-H clubs
had a parade, lambs and calves be
ing led by their owners and the
cooking and sewing clubs forming
groups of marchers and with the
13 calves and 25 lambs made quite
a pretentious array. In the after
noon the various clubs put on an
entertainment before an audience
that taxed the capacity of the gym
nasium. Tableaux, a playlet, musi
cal selections, recitations, duets, etc.
comprised the program with Mr.
Frederickson, sheep club, receiving
the prize for a clever little negro
comedy skit ending with a melon
eating contest which proved popu
ular, although some of the other
numbers had taken more prepara
tion. Geo. Bleakman and S. E.
Notson of Heppner were judges of
this program.
The Pomona granges each had a
booth this year which was a new
departure and a pleasing one.
Boardman carried off first prize for
her booth, having scored the most
points. The Willows grange booth
was beautiful in colors and arrange
ment but Boardman had a greater
variety of products. Irrigon re
ceived third. Only one farmer en
tered the general farm display but
his was a fine booth arranged by
Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Reiks. Miss
Irma Dennis, home economics
teacher of Heppner judged the fan
cy work and cooking. Walter Holt
of Pendleton judged the fruits and
melons and farm products.
The Boardman Home Economics
club has been working all summer
filling a hope chest which was on
display in the booth. It is a beau
tiful chest and filled to capacity
with things that would delight the
heart of any prospective bride or
mature housewife. This with a cov
erlet were given away.
The fair will be held next year at
Boardman and it is hoped that our
community will do as well as our
neighbor.
Friday, September 6, was Miss
Francis Spike's birthday, so Mrs.
Marschat and Miss Henry enter
tained a few friends for the eve
ning, having two tables of bridge.
At the close of an interesting game
a dainty luncheon was served. Pre
sent were Miss Katherine Brown,
Eldon Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. J. F.
Gorham, Miss Henry, Mr. and Mrs,
Marschat and the honor guest, Miss
Spike.
Mrs. Glen Hadley was pleased to
have her sister, Mrs. Ralph Gribble
and family of Oregon City with her
for a visit On Friday in addition
to the Gribbles, Bert Bleakman and
children and Mrs. Mary McDaniel
of Hardman were overnight guests.
All attended the fair on Saturday.
That greater interest is being
shown each year in the fair was
shown by the fact that visitors were
present from Echo, Heppner, Her
miston, lone in fact from miles in
all directions.
Dorothy Isom and Verna Jones of
Irrigon were the winning demon
stration team at the fair and will
have a trip to the state fair where
they will demonstrate. They were
members of the sewing team dem-
onstrating on Friday. It is not j
known whether Dorothy will get to
go or not as she leaves shortly to
attend the Cheney normal. If she
cannot go, Mrs. Isom, club leader.
must train another girl to take her
place.
Mrs. Elva Perry is visiting her
daughter, Mrs. Guy Barlow. She
came with Mrs. Ida Harlow and
daughter Juanita f Monument
who returned to their home on Fri
day. A sort of summer flu has been
prevalent the past two weeks. The
Chaffees are having a siege this
week.
Mrs. Chas. Goodwin left this week
for Burns where her husband is
employed.
Jess Mathis drove to Burns on
Tuesday, driving his truck.
On Friday evening members of
the Greenfield grange put on some
degree work at Irrigon some tab
leaux that were well portrayed. On
Saturday evening the Willows
grange put on some fine floor work
preceding the dance.
Mr. Kuhener of the college who
judged the club livestock at the
fair stated his reasons for the var
ious decisions. Many of the sheep
were thin, he stated, and a number
had weak backs. He was handicap
ped also by having to judge Ram
bouillets with black face or coarse
wool sheep.
One reason George Graves was
awarded the championship was be
cause of the excellent report he had,
being the most complete and com
prehensive of any of the reports in
the sheep club and containing also
the story of his work.
Boardman girls who joined the
cooking and sewing clubs will have
until November 1 to complete their
work, and thus will be able to ob
tain their club pins, so if mothers
will urge the girls on a bit they
will complete their work. The hon
ors in club work are unlimited for
one having the patience, persever
ence and ambition.
William Harju spent the past
week in Pendleton visiting friends
and returned Monday evening.
