If ou call by number
(fou'flkve faster long distance service
You'll have faster long distance service if you give the
operator the out-of-town telephone number you arc
calling, rather than just the name and address. That way,
! you see, you won't have to wait while she gets the
number from "Information" in the distant town you're
calling. You'll save time . . . and calling by number
means better service for everyone, especially now
i , when long distance lines are carrying so many
important industrial and military calls.
a good 'way to save
on long distance calls is to tell the
operator you'll speak with anyone
who answers at the out-of-town
number you're calling.
The lower rates on "station"
calls can mean important
savings for you.

Observance of Farm
Safety Set This Week
Take time to take care and
realize that haste causes acci
dents, reminds N. C. Anderson,
Morrow county extension agent,
who adds that this week, July 20
to 26, is national farm safety
week.
Figures released by James
Wiles of the state industrial acci
dent commission's accident pre
vention division indicates fatal
and time-loss farm accidents are
on the rise. Although the com
mission's statistics cover ac
counts only, figures indicate a 50
percent rise in farm accidents
since 1945.
For the calendar year 1951, ac
cidents occurring in agriculture
which were reported to the com
mission totaled 2,252. Of these,
1,508 represented lost time claims,
649 involved no absence from
work, 92 were occupational di
sease, and three were fatalities.
Wiles points out that the "work-
man's compensation law" which
is administered by the state ac
cident commission numbers about
one-fourth of the state's 59,000
farm families among its clients.
Anderson says that farm safety
is a matter of right attitude to a
high degree. In discussing haste,
he adds that short cuts or failure
to stop long enough to correct a
hazard may result in time loss,
money, and health.'
The county extension agent
urges farmers to be open minded
about safety suggestions. New
machines and techniques mean
new hazards, he says.
National Safety council says
that about 1,300,000 are injured in
rural accidents annually. In Ore
gon 18 percent of the accidents
last year were attributed to
"working surfaces." Vehicles
were involved in 11 percent; hand
tools in 10 percent; and machines
and chemicals, 8 percent each.

HERE'S DOPE ON

Goods and the Gazette Times.
According to the state game
commission the lower Deschutes

They also report good catches on

ports have told of the start
of the steelhead run in that river
with some dandies being taken
during the past week.
Reports from all streams of the
John Day Indicate nice catches
are being taken on both bait and
flies. The fish in Willow and Rhea
creeks are Jeginning to respond
to flies, Not many big ones in
either, but some nice legal size
have been taken.

Big Program Scheduled
For Shrine Football
Game At Pendleton
As a prelude to their All-Star
Football game on August 30th, at
Pendleton, the Shrine Clubs of
Eastern Oregon have scheduled a
big jamboree on Main street be
tween 4:00 and 5:00 p. m. Most
of the bands and drill teams that
will participate in the evening
pagentry will put on a full hour
of music and marching, and ad
ded attractions will be juvenile
Indian dances and Main street
Cowboy didoes.
The jamboree will be in lieu of

rade which will be a week later,
or the Westward -Ho parade the
following week.
In addition to the usual show
between halves of the game, there
will be thirty minutes of pre
game pageantry starting at 7:30
p. m. at the Round-Un park. This
promises to be an exceptionally
colorful program, with some
events never before exhibited to
Eastern Oregon. A complete list
ing of participants will be pub
lished at a later date.
Advance sale of tickets is be
ing handled by the Pendleton
Chamber of Commerce. Tickets
should be ordered now for the
better seats. Reserved seats are

OSC Issues Bulletin
On Stock Marketing
A comprehensive report on
methods of marketing Oregon
livestock, including some sug
gested improvements, has been
published by the Oregon State
college agricultural experiment
station.
Entitled "The Marketing of
Oregon Livestock," station bulle
tin 514 was written by E. L. Pot
ter, an OSC staff member for 43
years.
Among other things, Potter
recommended that Oregon cattle
producers take advantage of the
competitive situation in cattle
marketing by getting away from
the idea of always selling at cer
tain places or to certain buyers.
Various sections of the publica
tion cover marketing practices in
Oregon on beef cattle, swine and
sheep as well as general infor
mation on such things as freight
rates and cooperative livestock
marketing.
Copies of this report are avail
able from county extension offices
or OSC.
