Livestock Growers Move
Annual Meet to November
At a recent meeting of the
executive committee of the Mor
row County Livestock Growers
Association plans were made for
the annual meeting which will
be held this year on November
1 and 2. These dates were set
last January after bad weather
at that annual meeting. It was
decided by the froup that they
were flirting with bad weather,
by holding it in mid-January
i and the purposes for setting it
at that time of the year had
.changed since the original plan,
therefore, a fall meeting would
be better.
The meeting this year, will be
held a week before the annual
meeting of the Oregon Cattle
men's Association which will fa
cilitate getting in resolutions or
other business actions to that
organization immediately fol
lowing the adjournment for im
mediate attention. While omy a
tentative program is set up a
this time, the first day, always
set aside for an educational
event will feature an exhibit of
new types of labor-saving hay
ing eauipment.
A number of manufacturers
have indicated their interest in
exhibiting at this time, and oth
ers are being contacted. Such
equipment has a field pelleter,
new type high density baler with
attachments to toss bales into a
catch wagon and a self-propelled
hay baler are a few that will be
on exhibit. In addition, there will
bo discussions on selective weed
control in alfalfa and a clinic
to stress protein values and the
Importance of quality hay mak
ing. The business meeting, sched
uled for Saturday, November 2,
will be followed by a jointly
planned Farm-City Livestock
banquet combining these two
events in the hopes that a big
group will participate. An out
standing program has been ar
ranged for with a top entertain
er booked as the special feature
of the banquet
Recent Rain Showers Vary
Widely Among County Farms
Evervone Is hannv over the re
cent showers which in many
communities have exceeded an
inch. Thursday night's shower,
while seemingly general, varied
consid e r a b 1 y. Visiting with
ranchers on FrMnv vua fnnnrl a
variance of .18 inches at the
Kenneth Smouse ranch to .60 at
the Harold Beach ranch. Several
within these areas reported in
the fortv hunrtrpritho Dvpp thu
week-end precipitation exceeded
ft men at many ranches that
I visited.
In checking wppklv nroba-
bilities for rainfall at Heppner,
u is interesting to note that the
SeDtember 13 tn Spntpmhpr 19
weekly average for the past 30
vears has been .23 inrhps. Th
proDammy that it should rain
an inch during that week over
the 30-year period is 3. The
propabiiity that it should ram
men during the week of Sep
tember 13 increases to 17. how
ever, and that we should get V

Leaders Needed
Over the County
To Sustain 4-H
Nearly 40 new volunteer 4-H
leaders will be needed in Mor
row county for the 1963-64 club
year announces Joe Hay, coun
ty extension agent. The new
4-H year starts October 1.
New leaders will be needed to
take care of the normal yearly
turnover of 4-H leaders and to
increase the 4-H club program
in the county, Hav continued.
Each 4-H leader is a part of
the volunteer non-paid teaching
staff of Oregon State University.
They have a big list of sub
jects to choose from when they
start their teaching career. The
following is a list of some of
the projects that are available:
Electricity, woodworking, ento
mology, field crops, horticulture,
forestry, rifle safety, rockhound-
ng, clothing for girls, food prep
aration, food preservation, home
improvement, knitting, child de
velopment, marketing, fishing,
photography, automotive, tractor,
health, junior leadership, live
stock and archery.
"Morrow county has not had
clubs in many of these areas
in the past because some people
believe that 4-H club work is
only for country boys and girls,"
Hay said.
Persons interested in working
with boys and girls who are
willing to donate their time and
energies to leading a 4-H club
in any of the projects listed in
this story can obtain more de
tailed information by calling

organization.

'Wondra' Flour
Can Be Big Boon
For Baking Uses
By ESTHER KIRMIS
When I was in Colorado this
summer we took a tour to a
large grocery store warehouse
in Denver (that serves 5 states)
and they were telling us of a
completely new form of flour
that would be soon on the mar
ket that would surely make
some changes in the kitchen.
Flour of the Future!
General Mills has launched
what the company has termed
"The flour of the future." The
product is described as "Instant
Ized flour, granular and com
pletely new in form." The new
flour, which is enriched, is free
flowing, dust-free, and instantly
dispersible in cold liquids (a
boon to makers of lumDV eravv! )
Some of the advantages cited
by General Mills are: more uni
form cup weight which allows
for more accurate measuring; it
will not "pack down" so it can
be measured by dipping or pour
ing into the measuring cup, thus
needing no sifting; it will save
the user time and be easier to
handle than conventional flours.
Oregon rates high as a pro
ducer of soft wheat. There are
11 flour mills in Oregon, with
Portland and Pendleton the
state's major centers. A recent
visit to a flour mill in Pendleton
gave us some interesting infor
mation on the milling of flour.
Kinds of Flour (grouped accord
ing to the use for which the
flours were milled.)
1. Bread Flour This type is
milled from hard wheat, is fairly
high in protein content (glut
enin, gliadin, etc.) and is some
what granular to the touch.
2. All Purpose Flour All pur
pose, general purpose, or fam
ily flours are of such compo
sition that they may be used
satisfactorily for all household
cookery purposes. In soft wheat
arpas. thpv arp iwnallv a hlnnrl
of soft wheats; in hard wheat
producing areas, they are us
ually a blend of hard wheats.
Sometimes they are made from
a blend of both hard and soft
wheats.
3. Pastry Flour Pastry flours
may be made either of hard or
soft wheat, althnntrh th pv nrp
usually made of the latter. They
are iainy low in protein, and
are finely milled, though not so
fine as cakp flnnr Thov arp
especially milled for making
pastry ana are used cruelly by
bakers.
4. Cake Flour Cake flours are
milled from soft uhpnts anH am
the most finely ground of all
flours. Protein content is low.
Less cake flour is now manu
factured for home use because
of the prevalent use of mixes.
5. Macaroni Flour This type
of flour is milled especially for
making macaroni, spaghetti, and
noodles. Best macaroni flour
comes from Durum wheat which
is high in protein. Good maca
roni flour is creamy or amber
colored and more granular than
other flours.
Our first extension unit les
son (in October) is "Fun With
Rolls," This and other informa
tion and skills will be given.
