V PA1OCIAIIOM TO THE EDITOR . . To The Editor! I-itr Sir: There have been editorials In Oregon newspapers recently re gardlng a movement to ban all Hgnbnarda along Highway W. We are writing to the Ileppner r-,.,.u at this t me because U our belief billboard help the Mvmnmv of Oregon iinr'u t.ix-rate a restaurant greatly dependent on Highway 09 travel, an anu nuinoaru i,t nVal ft death blow to our business, and ours would not be the only one to close. Our neign bors, the House of Mystery and . nid Drcon Museum both advertise on 99. Their billboard! r. onlv brine business up Sar dine Creek, they also keep many inurkii in this area an extra ti,i tra rlnv means mil lions of dollars each year added rrpnn'B Income, spread through motels, gas stations and restaurants from Asniana Grants Tass. Certainly other areas In Oregon have attractions which they advertise on diii boards located outside of cities, and which help the economy of the state. For years this road has drawn uwlc-enders from hundreds of miles and vacationists from everywhere, BS wel1 ,oc,aI res Idents and -their visitors. We have talked billboards to trav ellers and local residents, and here Is their reaction. They trav el by Information on billboards and billboards break the mon otony of driving. The proposed law provides ior a state owned structure every twelve miles containing about thirty advertisements. No travel ler would stop every twelve miles to read about thirty signs all In one confusing bunch. MOSl Ol US Will rv iui a ni"fi. A law to kill legitimate industry is wrong. A thinking public .. . . ..... i. in Most of us work for a living WOUKl not VOIC lO IUU uuaiucaa. Taxes would have to Increase to make up the difference when in stations, motels, restaurants and others would have to close because of the decline in tourist trade Oregon is a small state from north to south. With no signboards to inform travellers of thin ss to see. thev could drive about four hundred miles and spend their vacation money In Washington or California. . . a good way to destroy Oregon's economy. Since 1955 Oregon has had a fair and equitable bill board law. Why erase a good law for one that will dsetroy our economy. We could ban ALL advertising and not discriminate.

Thpr have been several inci dents of calves being born with twisted, deformed legs, spines and heads. While there have niw hwn too manv in Morrow county to be economically im portant, they have created a lot of interest and research through out the country to determine the cause. Recently a report was made by LSDA scientists doing work on this disease In South. Central Idaho. While some of us have speculated on it being a disease; a deficiency in the rat inn or hpreditarv. the scientists have narrowed It down to two elements in their study, iney were able, for the first time, to experimentally produce a typical crooked leg cair under conironeu conditions by giving small daily amounts of lead lor aays along with Lupine plants nor 7P. Further studies are now underway to determine if the cause factor is Lupine or lead, or perhaps a combination of both. Studies 01 suspecieu mncA areas have been under way since 1955. They found first, that the deformity was not ner editary, later that there was no marked mineral deficiency in the area and examination 01 water samples showed none of the gen eral recognized toxic elements. Continuing further, a siuay 01 range operations showed the de formed calves were born during March and April coming from a June or July breeding. Thus the damage to the fetus most likely Now economy car owners can save an extra with Safeco Auto Insurance !

With the Morrow county fair just completed we would like to compliment all of the super intendents and others who work ed hard in making the fair the enr.fi that it was this year. While we have had more exhibits a year or two in the past, the quality of this year's has never been surpassed. Since wheat is the major agricultural income in Morrow county, we would like to compliment Bill Rawlins, on the fine grain exhibit which he put together this year. Even though to make a good exhibit ranchers must cooperate, we know that Bill spent a lot of time planning the grain exhibit and making a lot nf contacts to eet farmers to K-ir,. thom in. There were 28 wheat grain exhibits, 14 wheat ehPnf exhibits. 4 barley grain ovtiihtfc nnrt 4 sheaf exhibits, 3 oat grain and 4 oat sheaf ex hKt anH 1 collection of grain with 2 rye sheaf exhibits. This without a doubt, is the largest oVv,hit nf crrnin made in the state unless State Fair this week inereases considerably from years in the past. Morrow county this year contributed to me gram exhibits at the State Fair with grain exhibits from Bob Brindle, and Peterson Ranch as well as cmo fina oheaves of oats and wheat from the Brindle ranch IIS AlJLUilUIN you pay uie J lower premium cost, get the high quality service Safeco offers all careful drivers.

WORLD'S TOP FORESTERS About all that was vocal with enme hundred or more of the world's leading foresters when they stopped at the Capitol rri day, was that they don't like porcupines They said that the littlp animals are too ambitious. They have destroyed 30 percent of the young trees in some sec tions and have destroyed thous ands of dollars worth of tires and rubber hose in logging opera tions, the foresters traveling to the 13-day World Forestry Con gress In Seattle noted.

He cited a legal opin ion which declares candidates may be Identified on the ballot only by the name under which thev are commonly known. The only acceptable name will be one appearing on the candi date's voter registration card. Appling said he was not ruling out a shortened given name If that 1 the name which the can didate has registered and con ducts his normal business, but he will not accept extraneous nicknames or change ballot name forms between the primary and general elections. The ruling came from requests of two candidates who want to use a shorter form of their given name for the November election than they used in the May pri mary election. Furm Housinq Loan Regulations Changed Under a recent change In the eligibility requirements for farm hoitsing loans, a farmer who owns a farm that will annually produce for sale or home use at least $100 worth of commod ities may, if he meets other eli gibility requirements, be able to obtain a farm housing loan. Previously an applicant had to own a farm that would produce a substantial amount of the op erator's income.
