County 4-H Clubber
High in Judging
on Livestock Tour
Leading Growers'
Farms, Union Exper
iment Station Seen
Fifty-seven 4-H club members
completed a three-day livestock
tour yesterday which included visits
to some of the outstanding livestock
ranches in eastern Oregon. This
tour was the third annual event of
its kind and proved so outstandingly
successful that next year will un
doubtedly see a still larger number
of 4-H members participating.
Judging contests were conducted
on each of the ranches visited and
in addition to the livestock work
a crops identification contest was
V.U -A TT! . j
iiciu at me uiuun experiment sta
tion. Scores of the club members
in each of the classes judged were
totalled and results announced at
the final get-together at the city
park at Baker yesterday afternoon,
High point man for the contest was
Johnnie Hays, Heppner, a member
of the Willow Creek sheep club,
whose score of 972 out of a possible
ltw was forty points over his near
est competitor. Alex Thompson,
also of the Willow Creek sheep club
and Ralph Neill of the Pine City
sheep club, both placed within the
first fifteen. Tad Miller, the fourth
Morrow county club member mak
ing the trip, made a very creditable
showing in his judging.
On Monday, the full day was spent
at the Union experiment station
where D. E. Richards, superinten
dent, conducted a program which in
cluded judging, feeding and man
agment, fitting and showing of hogs,
sheep and beef. Tuesday morning
was also spent at the station with
E. R. Jackman, extension specialist
in farm crops at O. S. C, conducting
a tour of the station. Following this
tour, a contest calling for identifi
cation of 25 different plants was
conducted. In the afternoon, the
group visited the ranch of W. 0.
Christenson of North Powder,
judging two classes of Jerseys and
hearing a discussion by Mr. Chris
tenson on the breeding and feeding
and management of his outstanding
Jersey herd. Wednesday morning,
the 4-H members visited Herb
Chandler's Hereford ranch at Baker
and were fortunate in finding the
cattle which Mr. Chandler will have
on the show circuit within a week
still in the barns, being ftted for the
fall shows. Later in the morning,
the clubbers went to Fred Enter
mile's ranch at Baker. Mr. Enter
mile has made an outstanding suc
cess in raising swine. The trip broke
up at Baker.
The club members camped out,
cooking their own meals while on
the tour, each county being respon
sible for its own group. For the
Morrow county group, Joe Belanger,
county agent, donned the apron as
cook while keen rivalry existed be
tween the two dish polishing teams
of Johnnie Hays and Alex Thomp
son on the one side, and Ralph Neill
and Tad Miller for the alternate
meals. The wel-laid plans to bring
the dishes back washed and ironed
were foiled when part of an unused
jar of honey spilled over the dishes
on the way home. The dust and the
honey combined will undoubtedly
prevent the fame of two excellent
crews of dish washers from going
down in history.

CARD OF THANKS
For all the kindness and sympa
thy shown us in our recent be
reavement, and for the many floral
offerings, we wish to express our
sincere gratitude.
Claud White,
Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie Henderson.
Dr. A. D. McMurdo arrived home
Monday morning from Great Falls,
Mont., where on last Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday he attended ses
sions of the Northwest Medical as
sociation convention and enjoyed
the hospitality of Montana's famed
mining city of 30,000 population. He
reported some highlights of his trip
to the Monday Lions luncheon.
Leaving Heppner the Tuesday
night before, he took the Great
Northern train from Spokane, across
the continental divide past Glacier
National park to Shelby, famed for
its Dempsey-Gibbons fight several
years ago, where trains were changed
for the convention city.
The trip along the Kootenai and
Pend Orielle rivers was especially
beautiful, and the country in the
vicinity of Glacier park was a para
dise with its covering of deep green
grass, the doctor said.
Great Falls, neatly kept modern
city, stretches out along the Mis
souri river. Just above the city are
three large dams, Rainbow, Black
Eagle and Volta by name, used to
generate pow.er for Montana Power
company. Black Eagle received its
name from the falls of same name,
originally named by Lewis and
Clark. As the story has it, a black
eagle had its nest in the top of a
large tree growing on an island in
the river below the falls, serving as
incentive for the name.
Entertainment features for the vis
iting doctors included a picnic atop
Volta dam and visiting the large
Anaconda copper wire factory and
another large zinc reducing plant.
Until a few years ago when a larger
one was built in Japan, a smoke
stack from one of these smelters
was the largest in the world, meas
uring 75 feet in diameter at the
bottom. Dr. McMurdo described
some of the manufacturing processes
which he enjoyed particularly as a
follow up to a visit a few years pre
vious into a shaft of one of the mines
at Butte, from which the copper
manufactured at Great Falls comes,
some three thousand feet deep.
The convention program .itself
brought several speakers of out
standing ability, and late develop
ments in the profession, some of
which had not yet appeared in the
medical journals.
