Last year some of our customers enjoyed a 5-10 bushel per acre Increase with early spraying of Bronate over a late spraying of 24-D. Bronate can be sprayed early while the weeds and grain are small. The grain only needs to have 3-4 leaves. Early spraying Is the one that helps. Bronate can be sprayed in colder weather (any weather that your nozzles don't freeze). Every day you delay In spraying your weeds, Is costing you money. Kill them while they are small. Act now, give us a call, 422-7254. We have a good stock of Bronate, Buctril, 24-D, and other chemicals. -i March 9, the Morrow County Grain Growers lost 3 games to Coast to Coast Stores, while Central Market won 3 games from Fiesta Bowl and Peter son's won 3 games from Gardners.

Duffer The 1976-77 operating bud get for the Blue Mountain Community College was ap proved by the college Board of Education following a public hearing. No opposition was voiced at the hearing held on the college campus. The budget now goes to a vote April 20 in Umatilla and Morrow counlies. The college has no tax base, requiring annual elections to assure operating funds for the two year institution. Termed "a good, hold-the-line budget" by Ben Holdman. Pendleton, chairman of the budget committee, the docu ment calls for a total expendi ture of $3,079,381. an increase of $373,500 over current figure. President Ron Daniels des cribed the budget as tight, adding it reflects unavoidable increases in social security payments, electricity, natural gas. insurance, road mainte nance and cost-of-living sal ary increases. Directors of the Willow Creek Country Club will hold a meeting Wednesday. March 31 at Columbia Basin Electric at 7:30 p.m. The activity committee will soon have the calendar of events ready for the year. This will include special events that will be of interest to both men and women golfers. Dates and times for men's Sunday and evening play w ill be decided at this week's meeting of the local play committee. The newly painted benches help to brighten up the course. The work was completed recenllv bv Jan Bietel. lone and the club members w ish to thank all the businesses that made it possible. Annual spring clean-up day has been set for April 10 under Ihe direction of the grounds and building committee. This committee is headed up by Lowell Gribble and Harold Kerr. All members are urged to help clean the course during the morning and enjoy a noon lunch before playing an after noon round of golf. Heppner High School golfers opened the season last Friday at Pendleton in a losing effort. There has been a large turnout of young golfers and their efforts will undoubtedly pay off in later tournaments. -fepfe Datsun j ??53l71-'w Mileage j y ' v ffiback .
