Page 4 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, June 9, 1955 (ft"""7! lv Congressman SAM COON WASHINGTON. D. C. DURING THE PAST week I have had quite a number of visitors from home Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Benson of Milton-Freewater, whose niece, Florence, is in the office of the Secretary of Com merce, were in and arranged for them to attend a session of Con gress. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Tur ner of Portland were in Washing ton for a week or so and stopped by the office. So did Owen Pan ner of Bend. Owen is one of our very able young lawyers. As I have said so many times, it is really good to see the home folks. RECENTLY I Appeared before the Committee on Agriculture in behalf of all of the Production Credit Associations in Oregon. Robert Lister of Prineville was scheduled to testify also, but was unable to be here. The bill under discussion was H. R. 5168, which is the Farm Credit Act. of 1955. The Production Credit Associa tions of Oregon were opposed to passage of Title 2, amended Sec tion 201. This pertains to the purchase of Production Credit Corporations. I very strongly urged that this portion of the legislation be deleted. SINCE MY LAST letter to you I have also appeared before the Committee on Interior and Insu lar Affairs in support of my own bill, H. R. 3573. This is legisla- J tion granting the consent of the Congress to the negotiation of a compact between California and Oregon and providing for an equitable apportionment between those states of the waters of the Kalama River and its tributaries. Congressman Engle of California had introduced an identical bill and also appeared before the Committee in behalf of the Cali fornia district. I was very happy that the subcommittee reported the matter out favorably right then. It isn't often that you get, such prompt action, and it really is a good feeling when you do. EVER SINCE MY John Day bill was put in the hopper I have) been getting letters from people over the whole state of Oregon' about it and I am happy to report! that the great majority of these! have been in favor or the legis lation. I have also received a number of resolutions from civic organizations, not only from our District, but from the rest of the State as well, resolutions support ing the John Day bill.

JUST 4.95 Wilson's Men's Wear The Store of Personal Service Shish Kebab is a dish with an intriguing name that's made easily by broiling alternated chunks of lamb, green pepper and onion on skewers. It never farls to impress guests and it puts a party on a merry footing, especially when every one constructs and grills their own kebab. Perfect accompani ments are rice, a green salad and goblets of cool, sparkling beer. SHISH KEBAB 2 pounds lamb shoulder or leg of lamb ',2 cup sliced onion 1 teaspoon salt Vi teaspoon black pepper teaspoon crushed rosemary 4 tablespoons salad oil 4 tablespoons vinegar 4 green peppers 8 small onions Cut lamb into 1 '2-inch chunks, removing bone and most of fat. Place lamb in bowl with sliced onion,-salt, pepper, rosemary, salad oil and vinegar. Cover and let stand in refrigerator at least 1 hour or overnight. Cut washed green pepper into l'i-inch pieces. Peel onions and cut into halves. Alternate marinated lamb chunks, green pepper pieces and halved onions on 4 metal skew ers. Brush with additional salad oil. Broil about 15 minutes, turn ing to brown evenly. Makes 4 servings. letters from a few people who don't like the bill. I have tried to answer every one of these be cause I know that the people who wrote the letters are honest and sincere in their convictions. But most of 'them have a basic mis understanding about this legisla tion and what it will do for Ore gon. THE FIRST BASIC point to keep in mind, is that the Northwest must have more electric power. Unless we get some NEW PLANTS ON THE LINE WITHIN FIVE YEARS, we will have a serious power shortage. WE CERTAINY WON'T get the job done if we insist that the Federal Government do all the work and foot all the expense, nor will we if we insist that local agencies do it all. Both groups, federal and non federal, must work together. One of the most necessary places where this team work must be accomplished is in financing the construction of the big projects that we have got to build. Now, this is exactly what the John Day bill proposes, this legislation makes it possible for non federal agencies to help fi nancing, as a matter of fact to carry the burden of financing, the construction of the John Day Dam without in any way be coming an owner, or a proprietor, of the Dam. H. R. 5789 makes this possible by allowing the power, which will be generated in the future, to be sold in advance. CHURCHES (Continued From Page 3) ASSEMBLY i OF GOD CHURCH Gale and WLlow Willis W.

Guides For Buying Sprinkler Systems Published by OSC Seven keys to buying sprink ler irrigation equipment for best results with Oregon's many crops and wide range of soil conditions are outlined in a new bulletin published by the Oregon State college agricultural experiment station. Copies of bulletin 548, "Buying a Sprinkler System," are available from county extension agents or the OSC bulletin clerk. John Wolfe, OSC agricultural engneer, contributed trials throughout springier-irrigated areas of the state in collecting information for the 12-page booklet. Recommendations are set forth in easy-to-read charts for all soil types and major crops, Wolfe presents the following "yardsticks" in the bulletin as guides to' buying sprinkler sys tems that meet all requirements of individual farms: 1. System capacity. Recom mendations for five major agri cultural areas of Oregon indicate the gallons per-minute per acre requirements for seven groups of Crops. 2. Application rate. Gallon per minute discharge for Individ ual sprinklers is charted for seven soil types. Some course sandy soils, for example, require three times the gallons-per-minute re commended for clay loam soils. 3. Application for each irriga tion. Example: Where shallow rooted truck crops require only 2 to 3 inches of water per irriga tion on sandy loam soils, alfalfa may need up to 6 inches. Other keys include best spac ing of sprinklers, most economi cal size main iine pipe, size of lateral lines, horsepower require ments for pumping, and a list of general pointers for system operation.
