Plea is Sounded
For lone Writer
Once again, the Gazette
Times issues a call for help
from the lone area.
Mrs. Ernest Christopherson,
who has served as correspon
dent since last year, states
that she can no longer work
in that capacity. She has been
writing for the paper under the
handicap of living far from
town and on a party telephone
line that makes calling diffi
cult. The paper likes to carry full
news coverage from lone but
needs assistance in locating
someone from the community
to act as correspondent. Al
though the pay is small, it
does help supplement income.
Anyone willing to help or
knowing of someone who may
do the work is asked to call
Wes Sherman, editor.

New Zealand IFYE Tells of Home on Visit Here
Patricia Ireland, an IFYE (In
ternational Farm Youth Ex
changee) from New Zealand,
viewed a cattle operation in
Morrow county Sunday when
she was a guest of the Randall
Martins, Heppner. The Clarence
Wheelhouses, in-laws of the
Martins from Olex, and host
family to Patricia, brought her
along to the Martin's 25th wed
ding anniversary. June 9.
This elementary school teach
er from Waimate, South Island,
New Zealand, is one of four
IFYE's from that country who
are visiting in the United States
this summer, They received their
briefing at Berkeley, California,
and then separated to visit var
ious states. Pat has been with
the Wheelhouse family for four
weeks, and after 4-H Summer
School at Corvallis, will live
with a family at McMinnville.
A journey to Michigan will com
plete her IFYE visitation.
She is a 4th generation New
Zealander, being of Scottish
descent. About 94 of the
2,174,062 population are descen
dants of settlers who came from
Great Britain and other Eur
opean countries. The rest of the
people are brown-skinned Ma-
oria (Polynesian) who lived in
New Zealand before the settlers
arrived. The Maorias have inter
married with the whites and
have adopted many of their
ways, she says.
The country is made up prin
cipally of three islands, (North
Island, South Island, and Stewart
Island) about 1200 miles south
west of Australia. This self-governing
country is a member of
the British Commonwealth. The
brown-haired lass describes her
home land as snow-covered
mountains, green plains and for
ests, and sparkling white
beaches making it one of the
most beautiful lands in the
world. (It has an area almost
the size of Colorado).
"We have something similar
to 4-H work in our country," she
explains, "They are called the
'Country Girls' or 'Young Farm
ers Clubs.' Their membership is
for boys and girls a little older
than ours, (14-30).
About half of New Zealand
is used for agriculture, she con
tinues. The farmers use modern
methods of breeding, fertilizing,
and cultivation. Dairy farming
and sheep (Marino) raising are
the chief source of home income.
In fact, New Zealand ranks
among the leading sheep-producing
countries of the world, she
boasts. Great Britain is New Zea
land's best customer for wool,
butter, cheese, and frozen meats.
When asked about animal life
on the islands she told of the
Kiwi bird that has no tail and
cannot fly because its wings are
too small.
"It's open season on deer all
the time," she tells. "They are
in too much abundance and are
too destructive "
She is anxious to meet two
people. One is Glenn Klein, state
4-H extension agent, Corvallis,
who was an IFYE to New Zea
land about 10 years ago. The
other is Rhoda Campbell, former
IFYE from Scotland who was
hosted by ' the Randall Martin
family in 1960. Rhoda is now
teaching in Christchurch, New
Zealand, about 100 miles from
Pat's home.
