Pomona Grange News
By MARY LUNDELL
Although this is a busy season for
farm folk, the attendance at Morrow
Pomona was good, about 70 persons
enjoying the dinner served and the
program presented by the lecturer,
Vida Heliker.
The program opened with a com
munity sing followed by trumpet
solo, Raymond French; reading,
Helen Lindsay; talk, "Membership
Gain," Chas. Wicklander; poem,
"The House by the Side of the Road,"
Miss Hewett; talk, "Legislative
Problems," Ray W. Gill.
State Master Gill was a welcome
grange guest, and was accompanied
by his daughter, Miss Helen Gill,
student in agriculture at Washing
ton State college.
Two outstanding features of Po
mona business pertained to the ju
venile work and the bill, H. R. 196,
introduced in congress by Walter M.
Pierce.
There seems to be some dissatis
faction over the state regarding the
raise in juvenile dues. A suggestion
by S. J. Devine would supply the
needed funds through the subordin
ate granges instead of by the juven
iles. By motion, the suggestion be
came part of a resolution and will
be sent to the state grange.
Bill H. R. 196, introduced by Con
gressman Pierce of Oregon, "pro
vides for the general welfare by
conserving and protecting the agri
cultural resources of the United
States through control and eradica
tion of noxious weeds, to empower
the Secretary of Agriculture to con
struct an electro-chemical plant for
manufacture of alkali chlorates and
to distribute these herbicides at cost
to the states carrying out programs
for the control and eradication of
noxious weeds."
Mr. Pierce's bill provides for, the
use of Bonneville power for manu
facture of chemicals. Morrow County
Pomona grange went on record sup

porting H. R. 196.
State Master Gill discussed at
some length the doings of the recent
state legislature.
The sales tax question, which has
previously threatened Oregon, died
in the committee room.
Although the legislation on Bon
neville power was anything but
what the people of Oregon want,
still we are not giving up. When we
realize that our sister state, Wash
ington, has already organized 28
counties into power districts, and
Oregon but two, we can well ask
ourselves where the two units of
Bonneville power is going. Are we
going to sit by until 1941 and watch
our birthright lost to us and our
posterity?
The initiativs referendum will be
applied to the act of the legislature
in regard to the primary law, chang
ing the primaries from May to Sep
tember. Petitions will be circulated
during the month asking that the
matter be placed on the ballot, thus
referring the matter to the vote of
the people.
In next issue we will have more
regarding the primary law and how
it affects the populace.
For the next 18 months an attend
ance contest will be sponsored by
the Pomona, there being a $20.00
cash prize offered. Rules and regu
lations will be prepared by the fol
lowing committee: Mrs. Laura Rice,
Lexington; Oren Wright, Rhea
Creek; Edwin Hughes, Lena, in con
junction with the county agent.
These rules will then be sent to the
various granges of the county.
In July, Pomona will be guests of
Willows grange.
An Oregon justice of the peace
reports that a large crop of "spring
speeders" has already appeared in
his chambers this year, with a large
number drawing convictions and
sentences.' Secretary of State Earl
Snell reminds drivers that high
speed is no safer during the spring
than at most other times of year,
and that the speed limits are no
higher.

State college, and issued for general
distribution by the extension ser
vice. Although the book is consid
erably enlarged it will be distrib
uted at the same price as formerly
25c a copy.
The new account book is largely
the work of G. W. Kuhlman,' asso
ciate professor in farm management,
who has made a study of farm ac
count books from many parts of
the United States. It is the belief of
many that this new Oregon book is
probably the most usable of any now
issued in the country, and yet is
simple enough to be kept without
undue time and effort being re
quired. Full directions are included in the
book on how to use the various sec
tions, such as crop records receipts
and expenditures, farm-furnished
living, farm inventory, farm sum
mary, farm finance statement, and
cost accounting as applied to indi
dividual crops. Any part of the book
may be used by itself, or complete
accounts may be kept.
HHS Opens Baseball
Season Tomorrow
(Hehisch)
Local sports fans will get a glimpse
of the 1939 Heppner high school
baseball team Friday afternoon at
3 o'clock at the local Rodeo field,
playing against the Condon Blue
Devils.
A poor 1938 season, in which only
one game was won, gives way to a
promising future program, with eight
lettermen returning. Incidentally,
the Mustangs won their only game
of last year from the Condon nine.
New uniforms have been pur
chased recently, which add to the
color of the locals' first appearance.
Let's see all of you baseball lovers
out to see the Mustangs get off to a
flying start.
