"Chats With Your.
Home Agent"
By ESTHER KIRMIS
Whore were you when the
lights went out last Monday
night. . . Well, I was left in
quite a predicament! I was to
present my "lession in color" to
the Mothers club of Heppner at
the home of Mrs Rod Murray.
A part of my presentation was
a filmstrip on "Color, the Key
to Good Decorating" and a "work
session" on color problems. Just
about the time I got up to speak
the lights went out and we
laughlingly chatted about .this
and that waiting for them to
come back on. After 10 minutes,
we decided we were doomed to
"candlelight" for the evening, so
we proceeded as best we could..
The "make-shift" of the whole
presentation made it quite
amusing and here when I was
trying to make an Impression!
Tuesday evening I met with
the new officers of the South
Morrow county 4-H leaders coun
cil. We met at the home of Mrs
N C Anderson, the president, and

president Carl Rhea and secretary-treasurer

As I have mentioned before,
the energies of these 4-H leaders
truly amaze me. I'm sure the
success of our 4-H program Is
due to their loyal backing.
I sDent all dav Thursday In
the Boardman and Irrigon area.
I had lunch at the home of Mrs
M E Hadwick. Irrigon 4-H leader,
who is doing a wonderful job
with her cluD, "ine nappy sew
ers". Mrs Hadwick is quite an
unusual person. She has raised
her family and now devotes her
energies to leading a 4-H club
for her eranddaushter and her
friends. There are ten girls in
the club and they meet every
week in Mrs HadwicK's large
"family room" for their meet
In ps. Thev had lust completed a
"community service" project
while awaiting their new i a
material. Each girl had stuffed
a plastic toy they are going to
nrpspnr thpm to the Umatilla
and Hermiston hospitals for their
young patients. Mrs HaawicKS
red -headed husband, who works
at the Ordnance depot, quietly
applauds her worn wun inese
youngsters and once in awhile
takes a picture of the group to
keep up his hobby of photog
raphy.
While in Irrigon, we visited
Mrs Minnie Skiles, who is a new
leader of the girls in advanced
sewing. (Angela Gustafso n ' s
former club). We found Mr and
Mrs Skiles busily pouring ce
mint for a new back step for
their lovelv new home in Irrigon.
The Skiles come from Wasco
county. They are supposed to be
retired, but I'm wondering?
In Boardman, Mrs Maurine
Malone and I met with some
young 4-H girls to reorganize
their foods club. Mrs Malone has
taken over the leadership of the
"Mother's Helpers" club since
Mrs Don David has departed.
Eight girls enrolled: Diana Ma
lone, Dewena West, Elberta Car
penter, Carina Malone, and San
dra McKenzie are enrolled in
"Main Dish Meals" (third year
foods) and Shirley Dixon, Kath
erine Palmer and Linda White
maji are enrolled in "Mealtime
Fun" (first year foods). Officers
elected were: Diana Malone,
president; Dewena West, vice
president; Carina Malone, secretary-treasurer;
Sandra McKen
zie, news reporter and Linda
Whiteman, song leader.
These girls' showed a lot of
enthusiasm and I know they will
have a good year. We are mak
ing plans to reorganize the
Boardman clothing club on
November 18. Mrs Mildred. Mc
Quaw is the leader.

Rapid growth along the West
Coast offers cood market tiro.
spects for livestock Droducts. the
circular points out. The wheat-
iaiiow area is particularly well
located in relation to Portland
Seattle, and Spokane markets.
Feed grains, chieflv barlev. are
grown on nearly all of the wheat
farms in the summer-fallow area.
the circular reports. This makes
it possible for farmers with
rangeland in addition to their
wheatland to make cood use of
a beef or other livestock enter
prises.
Results of a study reported
in the circular show that selec
tion of a proper beef enterprise
depends principally on amount
of useable rangeland on the
wheat farm and on available
capital.
Farmers with limited capital
may have to start slowly with
a small cow-calf or cow-yearling
enterprise, the circular recogniz
es, But when sufficient funds
are available, a cow herd-feed-
lot combination was estimated
to bring highest returns.
Where little rangeland is
available, and only a small num
ber of calves can be raised, pur
chased feeders will be needed
along with home raised animals

to spread overhead costs over
enough animals to be profitable.
The circular includes tables
giving capital requirements and
estimated net returns for varying
sizes of beef operations on wheat
farms with around 1500 acres of
rangeland, and for farms with
750 acres or less or rangeland.
Beef-production possibilities for
ranches with these amounts of
rangeland are examined.
The circular, titled "Beef Pro
duction, Columbia Basin Wheat

Randolph Barker and C V Plath,
OSC agricultural economists.

We asked one of America's most respected
car testers-"Uncle Tom" McCahill-to put
a standard Pontiac.Ca"14 Sedan with our
new economy V-8 to the test.
And with only one specification that the run
would be exactly like you would drive coast to
coast yourself-in mountains, in city traffic, across
deserts, buying gas wherever the tank ran low.
And here's the phenomenal story in every com
plete detail-all officially certified by NASCAR,
America's top automobile competition authority.
What does it mean to you?
Simply-and very importantly this: For the first
time, you can get deep-chested V-8 pep with
better mileage than from many smaller so-called
"economy cars" . . . and get it on regular fuel!
If you owned a Pontiac with this new Tempest
420E V-8 you'd be saving up to 5 cents a gallon on
regular fuel. This new economy V-8 is optional at
no extra cost on any Hydra-Matic Pontiac!
