2 HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday, April 26, 1962 Chats With Your Home Agent Vegetable Study Extension Unit Topic for May By ESTHER KIRMIS Once vegetables were regarded in the same light as sulfur and molasses good for you, but def initely not "Good." Not so today. Vegetables have become Clamour foods; they have inter esting flavors, textures, and shapes. Their versatility makes them invaluable. Extension unit women will find this true when they study "Ways with Western Vegetables," for their May extension unit pro ject. Using a bulletin prepared by Ruth N. Klippstein, former OSU extension nutrition specialist, J will be giving training to 14 project leaders on April 26 in Irrigon (Adams home) and April 27 at the Heppner fair annex. Such information as choosing and using western vegetables and favorite sauces will be stressed.. These project leaders will, "in turn, give this infor mation to their local women in May. It's interesting to know that Northwest farms are famous throughout the nation for high finality vegetables. Thousands of people are employed in rais ing, packing, and distributing vegetables.

Release Of New Spring Wheat, ldaed-59, Told A new improved spring wheat strain, ldaed-59, that is resis tant to stem rust has been re leased jointly by Oregon State University and University of Idaho agricultural experiment stations. Idaed-59 is expected to replace the old Idaed variety that is susceptible to stem rust, a dis ease often causing serious dam age in the spring wheat pro ducing areas, reports Wilson H. Foote, OSU research agronomist. Certified seed is being increas ed as rapidly as possible and quantities of high quality seed should be available for com mercial plantings in the spring of 1963, it was announced. "Idaed-59 is recommended for those areas where Idaed is al ready known to be a good wheat in most years," Foote said. This includes spring wheat areas of the Columbia Basin, particularly in Union and Wallowa counties, and scattered areas of Idaho. It is not expected to replace nrnupnt acreace nlanted to Lem- I hi or Federation spring wheat or areas where auapieu winier wheats are recommended. The new white spring wneai strain equals the the high qual ity and yield of the old Idaed. In addition to having stem rust resistance, it is also resistant to mildew and stripe rust. Idaed-59 was developed main ly in Idaho but has been tested extensively in spring wheat areas of Oregon during the past two years. The new strain also carries the characteristics of stiff straw and early maturity that has made the parent variety, Idaed', a preferred spring wheat in some areas of the Northwest. Idaed-59 performed well in Northwest milling tests and is considered a special wheat for certain millers due to its good properties for cake flours.

The drama moves along over thousands of years of his tory, from the earliest means of communications to the complex world-wide systems of the present. OREGON SgW Testing Trucks Move Into Eastern Oregon The state department of agri culture's weights and measures test trucks have moved into eastern Oregon for the annual check of metered trucks, and warehouse, vehicle, livest o c k and other scales. Five of the state's fleet of six large test trucks will be workine in eastern Oregon most of the time until September, says Walter B. Steele, supervisor 01 weights and measures program. Steele says heavy duty scales and petroleum meter testing in western Oregon has been com pleted until late fall, with con demnations running slightly less than a year ago. Brand Inspection Hearing Slated A reconsideration of the State nonaptinonr rf Atrrieulturo's re cently promulgated cattle brand rule calling for animal brand inspections at each change of ownership is scheduled in May, according to a letter received from State Director J. A. Short, by Representative JranK weatn erford, chairman of the legis bitivp interim subcommittee on state administrative law. Weatherford had requested the department to reopen the issue iml hnlrl arlrlitinnal hear.n2S on the new brand inspection pro gram which he sain nau ap proached very controversial pro portions in Gilliam and Morrow counties. Weatherford said a number of stockmen had pro tested the change, declaring it to be both a nuisance and un necessary expense burden. Director Short announced that u,n hoarinac wnnlrl be held in Condon on May 31; Ontairo, May 8; and Salem, May m. . The rule revision calling for brand inspections at every change of ownership was made by the Slate Department of Ag riculture in compliance wuh rec ommendations of the Oregon Cattlemen's association and en dorsement by the Livestock ad visory board. The rule had been sought by many leading cattle producers of eastern Oregon as a stock theft preventive measure. Weatherford said he was con tacting the livestock associations in his district and other interest ed groups, in order to obtain ex pressions from them on the rule change. The present rule has been set up on an experimental basis, Weatherford said, and automatically terminates in 1963. The rule could then be enacted into law or discarded as exper ience gained from the pilot pro gram would indicate, Weather ford concluded. Boxed typing paper reason ably priced at the Gazette-Times.
