question;
I have a question as to the
meaning of the work "block"
in the homestead exemption.
Block A and B were originally
divided by a street which was
later vacated. I own adjoining
property in blocks A and B. All
of this is used as my
homestead and does not
exceed $7,500 in value. Would
my homestead include both
parcels of property under
ORS 23 250?
ANSWER:
Yes. The above statute
states that a homestead when
located in any town or city laid
off into blocks and lots, shall
be " any quantity of land
not exceeding one block,
provided such homestead
shall not exceed the value of
the sum of $7,500." The word
"block" has many meanings,
but in the most usual sense it
means property bound by four
streets. The entire property
may be claimed as your
homestead because the prac
tical effect of the vacation is
that all of your property is in
one block which is bounded by
four streets.

cates a need for more host
families for incoming Interna

who will be arriving in from
Oregon in June. A special
request is issued for young
couples to host the IFYE's. The
exchange students are usually
placed with families having
children or teenagers, but this
year the students would espe
cially appreciate an opportunity
to visit in the home of younger
couples. Most IFYE's are in
their twenties.
International Exchangees
coming to Oregon this year are
from Australia, Japan, Thai

Any family interested should
contact the County Extension

Supply and Demand are not the only factors
in the price you pay for beef. For instance, today's
modern-type 1,000 lb choice steer produces an
approximate 615 lb carcass which the packer sells
to a retailer who trims away 183 lbs of fat, bone
and waste . . . ending up with only 432 lbs of beef
that he cuts, wraps and sells to customers.
Of that a surprisingly small amount is steak
and a much larger quantity is roasts as shown in
the chart above. Retail stores put a higher price
on steak and a lower price on pot-roasts and
ground beef so that they sell it all . . , not end up
with only less-in-demand cuts like pot-roasts and
short ribs left in the cooler.
