'Johnston's Law'
Held as Argument
By DONNA CEORCE
Morrow County Extension Agent
The operation of "Johnston's
Law" is a gixvl argument for
setting up a family emergency
fund.
While you mav think John
ston's Law is some tviv of sc
ientific soroerv. actually it is
lust the formulation of an old
rule that applies t0 most fam
ilies at some time or other. "No
matter how well vou plan your
budget, something always hap
pens that vou didn't expect."
Mrs, Alberta Johnston, exten
sion family finance specialist at
OSU. points out that all families
need an emergency fund. This
should ho set up in the form
of a savings account, and mon
ey should be deposited regularly
in the fund.
A good goal for a family emer
gency fund might be savings
equal to two months salary, in
a savings account whore It Is
readily available when the mon
ev is needed.
Families should be sure that
the amount sot aside each
month is realistic, one they can
actually save.
Another advantage of having
emergency funds in a savings
account is that families can bor
row from themselves when they
need the money, instead of go
ing to a commercial lender. It
won't cost as much, and the
money can often bo obtained
more quickly.
Failure to Bury
Animal Carcasses
Results in Fine
By GAIL McCARTT
Morrow County Extension Agent
Carcasses of domestic animals
left more than 13 hours within
a half mile of dwellings with
out burying or burning them
resulted in a $10 fine for Giles
Wilfred Palmer. Rt. 1. Box 408.
Redmond.
On Ellis, justice of the peace,
Redmond, assessed the fine after
Palmer entered a guilty plea
before him last month. Ellis
also ordered Palmer to bury the
dead animals and refrain from
again leaving such conditions in
Deschutes County.
The complaint against Palmer
was filed by the Oregon Depart
ment of Agriculture. The de
partment said several head of
hogs had been left by Palmer
and there were approximately
10 dwellings in the immediate
neighborhood.

110 Pairs Stock
Pasture on 1 Vi Acres
At O'Harra Place
Cows with calves, numbering
110 pairs of stock, have boon
pasturing on 1 ' acres of Irri
gated land at the Newt O'
llarra place I n ulta fescue
and laitiho clover so tall that
at first backs of the nnlmnls
only wer" visible, O Harm said.
The st.uk are those of Ken
D.itty. and O llarra gives credit
to Ellis lYttyohn, who shares
in the management, and to Hat
ty for tluir irrigation and con
servation practices which make
it possible to keep the herd on
n total of 55 acres of pasture
land.
The stock remained on the
1 1 acres for only three days,
but can return for another
three das after a 21 day re
spite. O'Karra states. Ho fig
ures that the 14 acres Is kohI
for 1000 cow days of pasturing
per year.
By rotating the stock on seg
ments of thet S3 acres, there
Is plenty of feed, and they
never go out on summer range.
The Mi acres that supported
the herd this year has only re
ceived one good Irrigation,
O'Harra said. It Is 22 year-old
pasture.
"It looked like they didn't
even have room to lay down,"'
he said.
"This shows what more water
would do If we had the dam. '
O'Harra said they could run
one-third more cattle on the
same acreage If they had the
water.
He said that Batty and Petty
lohn managed the herd to at
tain a 'Jli'.'r calf crop this year.
"They're doing a swell Job,"
