"Now that you've Inherited a million dollars," the news re porter asked the lucky rancher, "what are you going to do with all that money T" "Well, I reckon," drawled the rancher, "I'll just keep on a-ranchin' till it's all gone." COLE ELECTRIC Motor Rewinding Industrial Commercial Farm and Home Pendleton 276-7761 The recent announcement by the Nixon administration to increase public land grazing fees by more than 15 percent is completely inconsistent with past administration policies", said Donald Ostensoe, Execu tive Vice-President, Oregon Cattlemens Association. "Many Oregon cattlemen, who rent public land from the Bureau of Land Management quite shocked that the admin istration would force such a hugh inflationary increase to the cattle producers cost of doing business. Obviously, these increased costs of produc tion will have to be passed on to the retail cost of beef prices. Just last week the administra tion decided to lift all quotas on beef imports for 1973, reasoning that by doing so retail beef Sheep Shearing Counties Pioneer Japanese Exchange School next Juiy uregonians anu me roresi service, were pr,ces would reduced.

CATTLE BUYERS, INC. 4420 Madison Kansas City, Mo. 64 til opposite and increases cattle grazing fees in excess of IS percent. This is totally inconsis tent and quite confusing to the cattle industry", Ostensoe said. Over 60 percent of lands in the state of Oregon is publicly owned. Therefore, it is most necessary for the states cattle industry to rent these lands for cattle grazing. In most cases it would be difficult for the government to rent or use these lands for any other purposes. The Bureau of Land Mange ment has increased their graz ing fees from 66 cents to 78 cents per animal unit month (AUM). The Forest Service increased their grazing fee from 80 cents to 91 cents AUM. Ostensoe also said that "this more than 15 percent increase is totally inconsistent with the admin istrations phase 2 program, with the objective of holding the line of inflation to no more than 3 percent per year. This is just another example of the farmer, once again, being caught in the cost-price squeeze. It appears that Washington policy makers want agriculture to continue to subsidize the consumer on a cheap food policy. Why don't these policy makers follow their own guidelines before making decisions which will definitely have an adverse economic impact on one of America's basic commodities." Ostensoe continued, "cattle men or the beef cattle industry cannot be held responsible for increasing beef prices when the administration makes policy decisions to substantially in crease our cost of doing business.

Shank Rugged Pliable Multi-Ply All Sizes 'Knit Knacks' by Debbie Barker An open meeting on sewing with knit techniques will be presented by Debbie Barker, Extension Home Economist, Wednesday, Jan. 17, 9:30 a.m. at the Dorm, Fairgrounds, Heppner. Everyone is welcome to attend the workshop. Debbie states that she re ceives so many questions on sewing knits that she has scheduled the workshops. can expect a lot of interest in Sumi (Japanese wrestling), Kahbuki drama, the Japanese tea cere mony, and some straight-from-Japan recipes-Sukiyaki and Seaweed cookies, for instance. It's all a part of Oregon's newest international exchange when 80 Japanese teenagers will come to Oregon for three weeks in late July and early August-a visit they hope young Oregonians will reciprocate in 1974, according to Lynn Breese, Oregon Extension agent-at-large and program coordinator. The Labo Teaching Center (a non-profit foundation in Japan) is financing the development of the program in Oregon, even picking up the travel tab for the young Japanese delegates, and the Consulate General of Japan in Portland is providing specia lized assistance for a culture exchange workshop. Mrs. Breese says the Japa nese Cultural Exchange-designed by the Labo Teaching Center in cooperation with Oregon Extension-will be a five year program. Eight Oregon counties will pioneer the program-Coos, Clackamas, Douglas, Gilliam Wheeler, Umatilla, Lane, Lake and Morrow. Three more counties named as alternates Linn, Multnomah and Jackson are assured participation in 1974. Also, county coordinators have been selected, Mrs. Breese announced. Now, families eager to host the Japanese teenagers are invited to call either their County Extension Service office or program coordinator in their area for host family application forms. Mrs. Breese says each county coordinator will an nounce eleven host families for her own county in February. But first county coordinators will become steeped in their own jobs-attending a two-day culture-exchange workshop, January 18-19, on the OSU campus, Corvallis. They will arrange similar sessions for host families in their counties. "The workshop is planned to saturate coordinators in Japa nese tradition, customs and to develop an intimate apprecia tion of cultural differences," Mrs. Breese explains. "Would-be" host families should contact the following coordinators: MORROW, Mil dred Davidson, Lexington. Necessary requirements of a host family: an interest in sharing ideas from another culture, appreciation of rural life, children between the ages of 12 and 17, and the desire and time to enjoy a teenage visitor from Japan. Some of the proposed changes in the Juvenile Code that will be introduced in this year's legis lative session may include the following among others: lower the age that males may marry to 18 without consent (now 21) establish the age of 16 that male and females may marry with consent (now 15 for females and 18 for males); have an annual review of hearings of all court orders pertaining to children. The bill will be sponsored in part by the Governors Commis sion on Youth. Square Dunce Club The Kinzua Mountaineers Square Dance Club met at, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Saddler Friday.
