BAUMAN, Sheriff and Tax Collector jffiFABM NEWS County Agent's Office Heppner Soil District Slates Annual Meeting Feb. 5 By N. C. ANDERSON Arrangements have been com pleted for holding the annual meeting of the Heppner Soil Con servation District on February 5. It will be an evening meeting starting at 7:30 and will be held at the Lexington Grange hall. In addition to the regular busi ness and report of accomplish ments, Dr, Grant Blanch, OSU Agricultural Economis t . will speak on "Taxes and Resource uevelopment." A film, "Water for A Nation" will ho shnwn This film should fit woll intn tho role that Morrow county is now quite actively involved In rela tion to development of its water resources. There will also be a short report on watershed activi ties on Willow and Rhea Creeks. Refreshments will hp sorvoH nt the close of the meeting. All district cooperators will be getting a notice of this meeting with the program and the dis trict annual report. We hope that you will take note of the meet ing and will reservo tho rlatn nf Tuesday evening, February 5. Bureau Sets Meetina With Farm Irrigators February 5 is also an import ant date for Willow Creek irriga tion farmers. At the request of several, after the January . 14 hearing on the Willow Creek dam. arrangements were made where representatives of the Bureau of Reclamation could meet with all irrigation farmers to answer questions which thev might have relative to the irriga ion phase of the proposed dam. Questions such as regulations on winter irrigation, effect on water rights, how much and when would irrigation water be allot- cd, etc., have been raised. Representatives of the irriea- ticn planning and economic sec tions of the Spokane office of the Bureau of Reclamation have pro posed that they meet with all irrigators on the afternoon of February 5. Since their time must be "sandwiched" in be tween two plane schedules they will meet with interested persons irom 1:00 to 3:du p. m. Tuesday afternoon, February 5. This meeting too, will be held at the Lexington Grange hall. This will dh the opportunity tor all irriga tors to have questions answered before final details are made and contracts signed for the available irrigation water from the proposed dam. Cold Weather Shows Some Grain Damage There has been a lot of specu lation about how much damage our cold weather has done to crops. We are sure that there is some damage because of the small amount of snow cover over most of the county when temper atures dipped quickly on Janu ary 10. While we are sure that there has been quite a little baf ley, especially spring varities seeded in the fall, that will need to be reseeded it is really too early to tell exactly how much damage has been done. In fields that I have looked at, ground has been frozen and it is almost impossible to tell the exact damage until we have some growing weather. I am quite sure with the good mois ture conditions at the time of the heavy freeze that there will be little or no wheat frozen out. While there have been many re ports of both wheat and barley losses, it is the opinion of those that I have talked to that it is too early to tell at this time. New Anderson Breeding Stock Shows Excellent Returns Last week while grading and weighing the 1962 Hereford heif er crop at the Frank Anderson ranch, we were happy to see the continued advancement of quality in his registered Hercfoul herd. We have graded these cat tle for almost 15 years and, wliile 2 plus grades were few and far between, we found the majority of the 23 heifers graded last week to be of high confirma tion and quality to rate 2 plus's with three heifers good enough for a 1 grade. There were only two heifers that graded a 2. This is a good record in anyone's herd regardless of their breeding pro gram. The heifers were looking especially thrifty and weight showed a daily gain of slightly under a pound to 1.4 lbs., on stubble. Frank has, over the past couple years, made a practice of weaning his bull and heifer calves running them back on the stubble and keeping them out most of the winter with only a short feed period. This, of course is the most economical way to run these as long as they are making moderate gains and de velop into the kind of cattle that everyone can use under their ranch conditions. We were happy, too, to see two new herd sires which had just arrived from the National West ern Stock Show at Denver where Frank had purchased them on January 15. These two bulls of excellent quality will add much to the "bull battery" now used in the herd. The two new bulls, one HEPPNER GAZETTE -TIMES, Thursday, January 31. 1963 of Real Onward-Tex Zato Heir breeding was purcliased from Alec Born and Sons, Follett, Texas; the other, Domino Prince M 224 was consigned by Weiss & Sons, Manning, Iowa. This is the same breeder from whom Frank had purchased earlier this fall 19 registered replace ment heifers. Both bulls are thick, deep and heavy for their age promising to grow out to be as large as their sires which run into the 2200 lb. weieht class. One will be 2 years old in May; the other 2 years in September. They are surely the quality that we line io see in a gooa Dreea ing herd like Frank has built up Recommendations Made On Chemical Summerfallow We have been having some in- quiry on chemical summerfallow lately and would like to make a timely recommendation for those who might be considering this practice. Late last fall we noti fied all farmers that Atrazine had been cleared for wintcrfal low. This clearance was limited to applications by January 1 for use on land to be 1963 fall plant ed to winter wheat. For those who have some chcatgrass or rye in stubble wnieh tney want to be sure to control and did not get to use this new recommendation, Ami trol with 2,4-D can still be used. Use 2 lbs. of 507o Amitrol com bined with 2 lbs. of 2.4-D butyl ester applied in 10 or more gal lons ot water by air. Spray be fore April 30 after the weeds have germinated and before they are five to six inches tall. If spring grain is to be seeded, apply at least 3 weeks prior to seeding. New Bulletin Published On Discussion of Wills We have a new publication, Extension Bulletin 807, "A Will of Your Own."

We would be happy to provide you with a conv through a phone call, letter or a personal call to the office, Agent to Attend Western Farmers Meeting I will be absent from the county on Thursday and Friday of this week while attending a Western Farmer s Associat 1 o n educational meeting at the Thunderbird Motel in Portland o;i the 31st and a regional USDA meeting in the Congress Hotel in Portland on February 1.

'Money Management' Series Begins Tonight By Extension Service There's more truth than fiction in the saying, "whether a fellow winds up with a nest egg or a goose egg depends a heap on tne kind of chick he married." This saying works the other wav. too. Tho truth is that cou ples have a greater chance for happiness if both husband and wife have healthy attitudes about money, says Esther Kir nis, Morrow county extension aaent. Recognition of the fact that money is an important family affair is the reason Morrow Countv Extension Service en courages couples to attend the new family finance series on "Monev Management." The programs will be held on four consecutive Thursday even ines beginning tonight (Thurs day), at 7:30 p. m. in room 1 in the basement of the Heppner hieh school. Succeeding Thursdays will see ;;uch topics as "Wise use of tre dit." "Your Family's Stake in Social Security" and "Savings and investments." The same "Money Manage ment" shortcourse is being con ducted at the old Irrigon school for four Mondays, beginning January 2. IFYE Don Walls To Speak Before Groups Next Week Don Walls, Oregon Internat ional Farm Youth Exchangee to Honduras, returned to Oregon recently after living with fam ilies for six months in various parts of that rugged South Amer ican country. The first month he was in Honduras he got acquainted with many of the people by liv ing for two weeks at an agri cultural college for boys from 14 Latin American countries. Don answered many questions about dating, marriage, education, re ligion, pontics and one of their favorite subjects A m e r i c a n movies. The third family he stayed with he experienced plow ing wun a wooden plow and a pair of oxen and throwing a net to eaten tish. His "brother's" wife was delighted when he pre pared chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, rice and biscuits for the family. Don said this was the first time he had ever cooked over an open fire clay oven. One of his most memorable experiences was living with the Carlos Lopez family on a large banana plantation owned by the United Fruit Company. Some 8,000 acres of bananas surround ed the Lopez house. Don will show slides he got working with Carlos in the banana harvest. In addition to really seeine how people lived, Don and his host father made a mule trip into some of the most rugged mountainous country in Hon duras. Almost every place Don went in Honduras he was asked to talk to 4-H clubs. He said the club members particularly en joyed pictures he had ot 4-H summer school delegates at Ore gon State University. Don says tnat his wye experiences will always remain with him because of the life-long friends he made. Don, a former 4-H club member from Hermiston, is a 1962 grad uate of Oregon State University. Joe Hay, countv agent, report ed that Don will be in Morrow county on February 7, 8 and 9. He is scheduled to talk to the Heppner Grade and High schools Thursday morning, February 7, starting at 9:45.
