We recommedn care be given in house plans to pro mote safe living, stressing dan gerous stair openings, unmarked stair steps, unllghted stairs, dan gerous cupboard drawers, make shift electric wiring, and unsafe electrical appliances; danger of carelessness in regard to gas and oil appliances, dangerous stove pipes, flues and fireplaces. We recommend mothers furn ish proper storage place for toys and train the children to use such places. 6. Remodeling Rouses. To meet the needs of families planning to remodel their houses, it is rec ommended that up-to-date bul letins on modernizing the farm house be made and that demon stration clinics or tours also be , held. 7. New Materials. Many new i fabrics of mixed fibers are on the market today. Often the home maker does not know their con Jents and does not know how to care tor them. Therefore, we recommend a na tional law that manufacturers be required to furnish labels indi eating the percentage of various' fibers in upholstering materials. ropery fabrics, piece goods and household fabrics. 8. Water Systems. According to 1945 survey, out of 505 farms in Morrow county, 338 farms, or 67 I percent, had running water, j It is recommended that each I rural family work toward a goal of running water, complete bath, room units, and sanitation facil ities such as septic tanks as the first major improvement. 9. Water Supply. An impure water supply is a menace to the health of the family. Therefore, it is recommended that rural families have their drinking wa ter tested at least twice a year. This may be done through the in about a week. She has all her equipment installed. Transferring & Heavy Hauling Padded Moving Vans Storage Warehouse U. P. and N. P. Penland Bros.

To help re lieve unsanitary conditions and possible contamination of wells, the installation of septic tanks and sewage disposal facilities is highly recommended. We recommend that septic tanks be built according to regu lations set up by the Oregon State Sanitary authority, which specifies a minimum capacity of 500 gallons or larger. We feel that 1000 gallon capacity is pre ferable on rural property. To encourage the construction of septic tanks by rural families, we recommend that demonstra tions be given in one or more centers on the construction and Installation of seutic tanks. II. Water Conservation. We recommend that dams be built to conserve and control our water supply so that each farm home on the water courses could ben efit by increased garden produc tion, sanitation, and home beau tification. 12. Insulation. According to a 1948 survey of 87 homes in Mor row county, 54 lack good insula tion. We believe that a study should be made of the various types of insulation suitable for different types of homes and ed ucational material be made available to rural homemakers. 13. Farm Market Roads. We recommend that farm market roads be improved and maintain ed so that there would be less wear and tear on theamily car and that the travel or the nouse wife to and from the shopping center would be facilitated. HEALTH AND NUTRITION Successful home life, efficien cy in work, and happy social at titudes and relations are influ enced by the health of the indiv idual members of the family Poor nutrition in early life has been the cause of many misfits in the world. This lack of good nutnton was called to our atten ton recently by the number of physcal rejects from the armed services many of which could be traced to poor nutrition. 1. Medical Care. In order to maintain a minimum standard of medical care and hospital care for the civilian population, the American Medical Association and U. S. Public Health Service recommend one physician is needed per 1,500 population and that 4.5 hospital beds are needed per 1,000 population. Health and social services in Morrow County that are now available are inadequate for the estimated population of 4,337 persons. To meet the minimum standard would require the ser vices of three doctors and 20 hos pital beds. In view of these facts, the committee recommends that an educational program be de veloped to acquaint the people in each community with the need for more adequate medical fac ilities in Morrow county.. We further recommend that a hospital be built and fully staff ed to provide medical facilities for Morrow county families. 2. Health Examinations. We recommend that the law requir ing a physical examination of all first-graders and freshman stu dents be enforced and that our school adminsitrators be urged to cooperate in bringing about this recommendation. We furthr rec ommend that a full time countv health doctor be secured so that this recommendation can be car ried out effectively. 3. Sewage Disposal. The com mittee recommends that each in corporated town irf Morrow coun ty be required to provide safe and sanitary sewage disposal by menns of a central disposing plant. In bringing about liette snnitation, it is felt that in em ploying a county sanitarian be kept in mind for a long time pro gram. I Trucj'.osis Test. We recom mend thi't the family cow be test ed for tuberclousis and Brucpllo Hc nice a year by a county vet orm' rim in order to safeguard 'lie health of our rural people. In bringing about this recommenda tion wp urge that a cnuntv ve rrinnrian should be appointed by the County Court in order that l!lllilllllllllllllllllllllllljIIIIIIIIM I DOG WHIM I PAY LICENSE THIS MONTH AFTER MARCH 1 THE PRICE WILL BE DOUBLE $1.00 for each MALE or SPAYED FEMALE $2.00 for each FEMALE $1.00 for each MALE or SPAYED FEMALE $4.00 for each FEMALE C. J. D. BAUMAN, Sheriff and Tax Collector Mas?. E this test be made yearly without fail. 5. Hot Lunches. We recommend that adequate and well balanced school lunches be furnished to school children and that mid morning milk be served to chil dren in primary grades either with or without federal aid. We further recommend that the educational program encourag ing children to eat well balanced meals be continued. 6. Home Food Habits. In 1944 Sherman county cooperated in a survey of the diets of school chil dren and found that there was not enough Vitamin C nor iron in the diets of school children to supply normal daily needs. As the age increased, the deficiency was more evident. Therefore, we recommend that each rural family adopt good eat ing habits as part of the daily routine. 7. Vitamin C. We recommend that the nutritional program of the county emphasize the need for an increased consumption of tomatoes, citrus fruits, milk and green and yellow vegetables for both school children and adults. B. Vitamin Concentrates. Ac cording to the advertising propa ganda of many manufacturers, vitamin concentrates are essen tial for all. Since this seems ex- Heppner ,'jSoze.tte Times, Heppner, Oregon, Februory 12, 1948-3 aggerated, we recommend that research be done on the value of vitamin concentrates and their proper use. 9. Home Garden and Produce. The 1945 census figures showed that 238 farms In Morrow county had home gardens. Four hundred thirty nine (439) families were using farm produce In the county, valued at $164,993.00. This am ounted to $376 per farm. Since the cost of family living especially food costs, have risen, j we recommend that all farm pro I duce and gardens, especially ear ly ones where possible, be In creased to help alleviate the food shortage. We further recommend that information be made avail able on the pest control. Continued on t'eae rour DUST and WATER We've put in 1 MILLION TELEPHONES since V-J Day 1.

Where does the money come from . . . millions of new working dollars needed to ex tend and improve service? Mil lions must come, not from tele phone bills, but from thousands of people who put their savings to work in the telephone busi ness. To attract these working dollars, we must pay a reasonable amount for their use. This re quires the sale of our services at fair and adequate prices. 8. We're still working against time. Orders continue to flood in. To fill service needs we're add ing facilities at the rate of more than half a mil lion dollars a day every day.

Not so long ago, servicing cars was simple. Most folks fixed their own with a screw driver or pliers. And when they did come in or service, there was no hurry everything was nice and informal. You might just sit near the pot bellied stove and talk with the mechanic while he fixed the car. Well, the pot-bellied stove is gone so is the old-fashioned car. But it has meant lots of changes for the better. We've replaced the old plier-and-screwdriver service with up-to-date Special Ford Equipment . . . our mechanics are highly skilled specialists, these days . . our methods are better and faster . . . our Genuine Ford Parts are easier to install, fit better, and last longer, to save you lots of money. Yes, it's been a good change. But one thing we've tried not to change is the old "personal touch". Next time you bring your Ford in, notice that even though our mechanics do things in a hurry, they still take time to be courteous, and thoughtful. We think you'll agree our serv ice today is far better, faster, more satisfactory, and just as friendly. Yew Ftrt Dealer lenltes mi te 0ea Ike Free Wen Shew, twesir Evening . MS0 Nerwert.
