In looking over rain record,
tent to this office by w co
operating farmers It U interest
K note that rainfall In those
communities reporting Is pretty
much the same. Taking average
for the growing season which is
figured as September. I960 to
March 1, Harry Proudfoot, But
tercreek Junction, reports 5u
Inches in this period. Don Hell
ker, In the west lone area, re
ports 5.18 while Raymond Lun
dell, in the south lone or Goose
berry community, has a record
of 5.50 falling in that time. Rec
ords from Louis Carlson, also
Gooseberry, are incomplete with
3.10 Inches falling by February
1. Most stations reported in the
neighborhood of 2 inches In Feb
ruary so this would bring that
record up to over 5 Inches also.

Mliton Morgan who accompanied
Milton on a tour of the Western
Utilization Research Laboratory
In Albany, Calif. One of the
items that this laboratory was
working on was a "shelter war

bomb shelters In case of an
atomic attack. We did not like
th uta vcrv well of having to
wait until an atomic attack to
help eat up the large wheat sup
r,i rtwentlv we have a report
on some promising new wheat
food products that tne laooraiory
researchers are working on that
omimia considerably more appe
tizing. They are (1) milk-like
products of high protein content,
irrH and supplemented
with vitamins and minerals;
(2) a hlghproteln powdered
ia m isnrlnkle over other foods
of low protein content; (3) a
meat-like product similar io jer
ky or dried sausage and requir
ing no refrigeration; (4) canned
bulgour; (5) dry Instant bul
gour; (6) wheat gum gluten for
o hinHir in boned meats; (7)
wheat snacks and wheat candy;
(8) flour of different flavors,
ai loonor hreads of higher
wheat content having superior
texture, flavor and keeping qual
ity and; (10) giiadln foams,
Mnnrirvi flavor and similar to
whipped egg whites. These new
uses sound HKe new oppoiium
ties might be created for the
use of wheat.

Trapping, and other control
measures for this season, started
in mid -November with concen
trated work In the same areas as
last year: feedlots In the Ontario
area of Malheur county and
around PrlnevUle; and holy
orchards in the Willamette
vfllloy.
In five runs, since December
1, of the experimental light trap
on the Stump holly farm near
Monmouth, 23, 225 starlings were
caught. The trap also netted 2o
other birds, including 19 red
wings. 4 robins and 3 warblers.
The trap, used at night, recently
attracted a Life photographer.
This trap is a huge nylon net
funnel terminating in a wire
trap behind which 1000-watt
lights attract the starlings as a
crew of drivers "flush" the birds
from holly trees. It has been
operated once a week, usually on
Wednesday nights, since Decern
ber 1.
In eastern Oregon, where an
estimated 1.2 million starlings
were exterminated iasi
toxic French fries accounted for
most of the destruction. This
method is being repeated in
feedlot areas.
. aa ctnrline distress
call used to keep the birds out
of holly orchards is snow... v..
siderable success.
