Lightning Strikes

Early-morning lightning be
tween 6:00 and 6:30 Monday
caused minor damage in diff
erent parts of the county.
Columbia Basin Electric
Co-op in Heppner reported
several power outages, re
quiring from two to six hours
to restore. Lightning burned
out the transformer at the
Don Heliker ranch outside of
lone. It struck a power pole
near lone that caught fire,
but the fire was extinguished
and the pole will not have
to be replaced. Power was
also out at the McNabb
Elevator.
Perhaps the worst results
of the electrical storm were
at the Lewis Halvorsen ranch
outside lone. The family was
asleep when the lightning
struck there about 6:00. It
ruined the TV tower, and in
turn the high voltage shot
through some of the house
circuits blowing out the TV,
refrigerator and a clock. The
curtains also burned, as a
result of the lightning.

for some cattlemen and less
difficult for the cow.
The process will allow heif
ers to have smaller calves
or reduce the size of calves
from "big calf breeds that
often cause calving difficul
ties even in mature cows,
he said. By allowing them to
have smaller calves, heif
ers could be bred at earlier
ages, thus reducing the cost
of maintaining a heifer until
she has her first calf, he said.
O'Mary said it also would
speed up the beef production
cycle by shortening the ges
tation period and allowing
the cow extra time to get
back into condition for re-breeding.
