Classes in good home lighting Across The Counter By Frank Van "You are richer than you think," I said. John looked startled. "Who me?" he asked, skeptically. "Yes, John, over the years you've accumulated more things around your house than you probably realize. In clothing alone your fam ily no doubt has half the value of your household contents policy. Or probably $1000 worth out of the $2000 coverage." "I guess you're right," he answered. "And that only leaves $1000 to cover all the other contents of your home. Do you think it's adequate for all your jewelry, appliances, kitchen utensils, silverware, rugs and carpets, furniture in every room, pictures and books, hobby and sports equipment? "Golly no" he said. "I imagine it would total $6000 or $7000. But I'd never real ized before just what that policy covered. When I said $2000 on the furniture it sounded okay. But counting all the contents of my house, I can see it is certainly short of the mark." "Make a rapid inventory of the contents of each room tonight. Then let me know tomorrow how much insur ance you'll need." "Fine," John said, "I'll do it." May we assist you too? TURNER VAN MARTER &CO. INSURANCE BONDS REAL ESTATE NOTARY PUBUC Heppner Phone 152 Annual Cropping Rated High By Basin Wheat Man A young Columbia basin far mer who Is expecting a two dol lar or more return for every dol lar he is investing in commercial fertilizer held "open house" re cently on his southern Wasco county ranch at a field day spon sored by the Oregon Wheat Grow ears league. He is Roy Forman, 36, Antelope, Oregon's 1951 "Conservation Man of the Year." The contest is league sponsored and the winner receives a trophy awarded by the Oregonian at the wheat league's annual meeting. Forman was named last year at the Pendleton meeting. Previous winners have been Arthur Jaeger, Condon; Virgil Larson, formerly of Mikkalo; and J. Harris Rea, Athena. Visitors at the Forman ranch learned that he grows wheat on 1,700 of his approximately 5,000 acres. Although located in an average 11-inch rainfall area, Forman is annual cropping 450 acres this year having it planted to Federation 31. Basing nitro gen applications on moisture de terminations made by Leroy War ner, Pendleton, the Wasco county farmer applied ammonium nit rate this year at rates varying from 80 to 200 pounds per acre. Altogether, he applied 100 tons of commercial fertilizer. On soil which Forman admits averages just 4wo feet in depth, he harvested a 36-bushel average wheat crop last year. It is land which the county AAA committee appraised with an average yield of less than 15 bushels per acre as recently as the mid-30's. Forman, actively in charge of the ranch since 1936, has been using trashy fallow farming methods since that date. Dis cussing annual cropping, he said, "I don't care if I don't get an ex tra bushel of wheat, having a crop on the soil each year will stop winter erosion." "I recommend that you go home and try annual cropping on 40 or 50 acres on your own ranches," he urged field day visitors. The tour, attended by more than 350, was arranged by E. M. Nelson, Wasco county extension agent. o Mrs. William Labhart and children have returned from In dependence where they visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Tetz, for several days. are being taught by Cecil Root, Pacific Power and Light, Port land, and Clyde Walker, Portland General Electric Co.
