BEEF CATTLE FIELD DAYS
Beef Cattle Field Days are being planned at two
Agricultural Research Centers in Eastern Oregon. The
Squaw Butte Experiment Station will hold its field day on
Mar. 29 starting at 10:00 a.m. at the Poison Creek Grange
Hall.
A second field day will be held at the Union Station, Union,
Ore., on May 10 at 10:00 a.m. The morning program at both
stations will include research results on Artificial
Insemination in Beef Cattle; Introduction of Kochia;
Finishing Steers on Grass; Winter Energy Levels for Cows;
and Supplemental Considerations. Afternoon sessions at both
stations will feature a tour of facilities, plus a look at current
research being conducted.
GROUND SQUIRREL AND GOPHER CONTROL
With drier conditions prevailing this year, an earlier
attempt at controlling gopher and ground squirrels should be
made. Both male and female squirrels have come out of
hibernation in several areas of the county. Many of the
females who have been examined are carrying young at this
time. Generally this condition would not be found until
mid-April or early May.
Gopher control can be done at almost any time the ground
conditions are good. The toxicant, 1080, is still available, as
well as strychnine. 1080 is available only through a specially
licensed pest control operator. You may want to pre-bait
some areas before doing a complete control job in order to
determine if the squirrels will be receptive to the bait.
Generally about 2 pounds per acre of the 1080 and oats is
sufficient for gopher control.
For more information concerning rodent control, contact
the Extension office.
Spring sewing should prove easier and everyone who
attended the recent "Sew Fair" should be right in step with
the latest fashion, according to Birdine Tullis, Extension
Service. The event attracted a large number of women in
both Morrow and Umatilla counties, where similar programs
were presented. Designed to provide information for all in
Morrow County from beginning to advanced sewing, classes
included darts, hems, seams, by Cece Slocum, Hermiston;
pressing, grading and notching techniques, Veda Peck and
Ruth Finch, Pendleton; collars, sleeves, crotches, Jeanne
Howell, Heppner; patterns, by Ellen Lewis, Pilot Rock;
contemporary tailoring, Ruth McCabe, lone; fusables, by
Kathy Jamieson, Condon; and T-shirt techniques, by Birdine
Tullis. In addition, all attending received spring fashion
highlights from Kathy Jamieson, and an informative session
on sewing machine maintenance. On hand to answer
questions relating to all sewing machine problems were two
representatives of the Viking Company, courtesy of Case
Furniture, Heppner.
The concept of a one day session, providing a wide variety
of topics, proved very popular to the busy women of Morrow
County. Each class was repeated a number of times,
allowing the women to choose a variety of classes throughout
the day. The instructors were really great, Birdine reports;
they are all skilled in sewing techniques, and so willing to
share their knowledge, plus it is always fun when sixty
women with common interests get together! A number of
informative handouts from the sessions are on hand in the
Extension office, available to those who missed the "Sew
Fair."
We think 4-H is such a great program, and are so closely
involved with it every day, that once in a while we have to
remind ourselves that there could possibly be people in our
county that do not know all that much about 4-H, or what it
has to offer, Birdine Tullis said. So we ask, "Are you aware?
THAT...
...4-H is a learning by doing program, open to all young
people fourth grade through twelfth grade? That there is a
project area for almost any interest a young person might
have, including rockets, tole painting, sewing, cooking,
macrame, livestock, gardening, pigeons, flowers, and every
conceivable interest inbetween !
...leadership for 4-H clubs and
devoted, dedicated volunteers

...4-H leaders are people with kind hearts who spend
unlimited time helping young
better"?
...there is still time for your
member of the 4-H program this
...people willing to work with
in this county to help with the program in a leadership role?
...that if you want more information about 4-H, you can call

up! Try it!
