Efforts of the Morrow county court to get
back from the federal government lands that
are within tho Boardman bombing range have
boon frustrating. But they must be pursued.
The court has been fighting the battle with
little help. In recent days It has had an offer
of substantial help. Gov Mark Hatfield has asked
members of the Oregon congressional delegation
to make a concerted effort to get the federal
government to relinquish the bombing range
acreage. The governor, In making his request,
pointed out the Importance of the land, because
of Its location near the Columbia River, as a
site for Industry.
This offer of aid from the governor and en
listment of the forces of our U S senators and
representatives should be a signal for the Mor
row county court to take a cinch In Its bolt
and come out swinging again.

Livestock men are urged to

the Morrow County Livestock

to our livestock growers In keep
ing proven herd sires producing,
has been a popular annual event
since.
The women will want to at
tend the meats and meat cookery
demonstration that afternoon.
Committee sessions will develop
recommendations for considera
tion at the Saturday program.
A number of interesting speak

during that duy with a lot of
fun scheduled for the banquet
in the evening. Everyone Is In
vited to attend even though they
may not be a member of the
association. Further details can
bo found In an advertisement
story elsewhere In this paper.
Several years ego while carry
ing out a five year research pro
gram In the use of fertilizers on
dry land wheat, one of the parts
of this program was securing a
monthly rainfall record from co
operators in the various com
munities. To secure this record
official rain guages were made
available to these operators In
order that we could have an
accurate record. Unfortunately at
the end of the research project
rain gauges were picked up and
rnrvirHa discontinued. A number
of the cooperators purchased rain
gauges of the same Type nu

Chats With Your
Home Agent
By ESTHER KIRMIS
I'm one of these persons too,
that has shied away from the
"lowly lamb". It was never quite
as available as beef and pork
and I always felt It wasn't as
tasty.
But a woman can change her
mind and here's proof.
In working on my part of this
Friday's meat demonstration,
"Bonlng-up on Meat" I have ex
perimented with lamb and have
found It tasty and easy to pre
pare. ,
Lamb Is available In our lar
c.r mnrUet the vear around, and
would be available In our county
markets if there was sufficient
demand.

Lamb chops are at their best
when cooked just short of well
done, so that they are siiguuy
pink throughout. Lamb roasts,
too, are a treat wnen mcmum

Allow 10 to 15 minutes longer

Mint leaves make an attractive
garnish and a pleasant flavor
accompaniment for lamb. They
may be chopped and added to
the stuffing.
Lamb makes a tasty stew be
cause its flavor blends well with
all vegetables.
Lamb and new peas are con
sidered a perfect combination,
but try serving lamb with green
beans, spinach, cauliflower,
brussel sprouts or broccoli.
