cost the Morrow County Fair
fumd $5,000? Well, it did. Flood
ing of the racetrack in Portland,
which put an end to the 1948
racing program even before It
got started cut the state's rev
enues to the extent that the Mor
row County Fair received between
$7,000 and $8,000 of an expected
$12,500 or better.
Some of the larger fairs and
shows got the usual allotments
because they saw to it a number
of years ago that they would get
a stipulated sum. What was left
from the pari mutuel returns was
to be divided among the other1
participating fairs. Representa
tives of the county fair associa
tion, an organization of fair
boards on a state basis, have pre
pared a measure which they will
press at the legislature to have
all participating units on the
same basis.

Jack Frost is surely on a rain

Skip Ruhl, Lexington, purchas
ed a Shorthorn steer calf from
Steve Thompson on Tuesday and
wil put it on feed at once. Skip
is a new club member this year
and will exhibit his fat steer at
the county fair this fall.
Ronald Baker, lone, and Peggy
Wightman, Heppner, are well pre.
pared for lambing their ewes.
The recent cold weather has these
club members worried since the
ewes are due to lamb any day
now. Ronald has converted a
round steel granary into a mat
ernity ward. An oil stove, with
protective tin guards, supplies the
heat. This makes an ideal place
to lamb, in fact it is much warm
er than most houses are these
cold days. Peggy has converted
the garage into a lambing shed
with individual pens and electric
brooder for her four registered
Hampshire ewes that will lamb
soon.

The county agent recently
weighed 4-H fat calves for club
members Betty, Rieta and Dean
Graves, Johnny Brosnan, Allen

All calves are making good
gains. The rest of the fat calves
on feed will be weighed soon.

and other crops one might be
tempted to comment on the "un
usual'' nature of the weather, but
such comment would be unsports
manlike. There will be a shortage
of those products of the soil for
which the larger part of the na
tion looks to California and we
won't feel much like jesting
about the weather when we go
in search of the more or less trop
ical fruits, or pay the price of
such of them as we are able to
buy. And there's another point
to consider. While we are grouch
ing around about near-zero and
in some Instances, sub-zero tem
peratures we should remember
that we are more accustomed to
freezing weather and that our
homes are, or should be if they
are not, equipped to combat cold
weather, wheieas the people of
the southern areas are neither ac
customed to nor prepared to with
stand brief cold snaps, let alone
extended periods of frosty wea
ther. So, we will not say let's be
charitable, but rather let's be
sensible.
There is a Congressional legend
about the newly elected Congress
man who, In his maiden speech
on the floor of the House, said.
"As Daniel Webster makes clear
in his famous dictionary . . ."
He was interrupted from the
floor by a cry of, "Noah Webster
wrote the dictionary.
"Noah nothing," replied the
speaker, Noah built the ark.'
For the benefit of our friends
who have not heard of Mrs. Craw-

Improved and Is resting easily,
She is deeply grateful for the
many nice things that have been
