Cutting The month of October has an other local artist's work disolav- ed In the lobby of the Bank of Lastern Orejfon at Ileppncr, Paintings this month are those of the Rev. Edwin A. Cut ting of Heppner, an amateur who has painted "off and on" for several years. Rev. Cutting first dabbled In art in 19181950, then again in ISM-1961, and re cently in 1908-1969. Landscapes and non-representatives (ab stracts) interest him chli-fly, and he Ls fond of using color. Mof;t of his pictures were made on cold winter days be tween chore times when the Cut- I tings lived on a farm in Min nesota, before moving to lygh Valley, In 1963. The artist has sold a few pic tures. given some to his child ren, and has the rest hanging in the parsonage or stored In boxes; the latter is where the unsuccessful ones are kept. Some of the paintings have won first place at county fairs and at the yearly Rural Art Shows of the University of Min nesota In Saint Paul. His high point of achievement was to have a landscape purchased by The use of warm water for lr- ions.

At the site in Springfield, hot water from the Weyerhauser mill is piped two miles to a 170- acre plot where a wide variety of crops are grown. The water reaches the field at a temper ature of 92-100 degrees Fahren heit which is warmer than wa ter which would be used from a nuclear plant. The water was applied through sprinklers on various crops. "No adverse effects from hot water were noted, except under poor management situa tions" was the report given to the 50 representatives from var ious utilities and companies as well as local farmers in that area. The only damage to crops oc curred when pipelines leaked and flioded areas, or water was ul'owed to flood areas from oth er sources. The water applied through sprinklers is cooled as it passes through the atmosphere at the rate of 2 degrees Fahrenheit for each 1 foot of distance from the nozzle. More work will be done on this subiect in the future. Work was also conducted this past year on using the warm water for frost control. The co operative project will continue for two more years and may be extended for an additional two years to provide a lot of background information for the use of warm water to irrigate agriculture lands. The multiple use of a valu able resource such as water in filling an industry need, then providing water for thousands of acres of thirsty land, then returning any waste water to the river at temperatures not harmful to fish, is a wise in vestment of a valuable resource. notes Kerr, Rev.
