Tom Current and two staff
members from the Economic De
velopment Administration told
a group of Morrow County peo-'
pie Wednesday afternoon that
eligibility for their program
would be for one year.
Becuuse employment has
dropped, the county is eligible

Public Works and Economic De-
velonmcnt Act of 19C5.
Those assembled Included
committee chnlrmen and mem
bers who will put together a
program that would have an
Impact on the economical and
liveability conditions of the
county with the top objective,
creation of long term jobs. The
program should be put In the
hopper for consideration within
3 or 4 months.
Matching funds which would
be a 50 grant could be used
to build a publicly owned fa
cility such as sewer, water,
roads.
RuDe Kennedy and Harold
Kerr will act as dual coordinat
ors of the committee with the
County Court.
Mr. Kennedy said the timing
of the new effort was remark
able. He fanned the enthusiasm
and prospects for developing
program with the developments
anticipated in the nortn ena
which in time will extend Into
the deep soils out of lone and
Lex.
The growing, pnx-essing, .ship
ping and marketing of the food
and fibre that will come from
the Irrigated lands. Some should
6tart next spring. He said there
vate irrigation. Additional ir
will be 30,000 acres under pri-
eatlon water would be avail
able from nuclear plant coolant
waters. A nuclear plant puts
out 600,000 gallons of water
minute.
Judge Jones asked about th
advisability of forming an EDA
district. Mr. Current said, "In
the near future this county l:
going to be wall-to-wall dis
tricts, people will have to get
with it or get left behind". He
reviewed the present status of
the five counties in the present
Administrative District: Umatil
la, Wheeler, Grant, Gilliam and
Morrow. Umatilla County Is the
only one who has qualified and
has a project going. Wheeler
and Grant are both qualified
but have no project going. Gil
liam county's unemployment
dropped below the 6 hmti and
has been removed from eugibil
ity-
In 1964-65, Morrow County
had qualified for the same
matching funds. When they had
no project to submit, the Forest
Service was given the grant and
the Tupper facilities were built
using a local contractor and lo
cal labor.

Doggy Tips
By BONNIE
Week 1
If there is one thing Heppner
has it's lots of dogs'! You can
see them almost anywhere you
look. Most are owned by some
one who Is interested in keep
ing him healthy and happy.
This week we will discuss one
of the ways of doing this.
Another thing Heppner has
nlentv of this time of year Is
Cheet and Fox-tail, so it's only
natural that dogs and these
small menaces get together.
Look your dog over carefully
and you will probably find
enough of both stuck in him to
plant both sides of the highway
from Heppner to Lexington!
Leave these little monsters on
your dog and soon you will have
a mighty unhappy dog. Signs
of his discomfort are shaking
of head, scratching at ears,
limping, and swollen areas. If
this does happen be sure to
take him to the Veterinarian
right away. Usually you can
avoid the trip if you take a
few precautions. Pull the hair
out from between your dog's
toes and clip it off with sharp
scissors, then every day or so
run your finger between all his
toes and feel for seeds. Run your
fingers underneath where his
legs join and search for seeds,
then brush him all over. Cut
the hair from around the open
ing of his ears so it won't lead
seed Into the ears. Even very
short haired dogs need this
care. Remember, just 5 minutes
every other day can save you
time and money, and your pet
much misery!
