Extension Service news
By Birdine Tullls, Morrow Extension Service
Spring Events of Interest
The mention of herbs and spices brings a glint of interest to
most women, especially those who garden and want to know
more about growing and preserving herbs. The upcoming
training session for study group leaders should be of interest,
as both growing of herbs, and preparation of tasty dishes
using herbs and spices will be combined to offer something of
interest to all.
Two training sessions are planned, with the first to be given
in Hermiston, April 20, 10-12, at the Civic Recreation Center,
215 W. Orchard, and the second in Pendleton, April 25, 10-12,
Christian Church. The subject will be the topic for study
group meetings in both Morrow and Umatilla Counties in
May.
Herb culture and preservation will be presented by Birdine
Tullis, with the cookery, storage, and identification by Molly
Saul. The two promise lots of good sampling, as well as an
opportunity to pinch, smell, and enjoy fresh growing herbs!
Anyone interested is invited to attend the trainings.
Extension study group membership is not a requirement.
Morrow Women's Day...May 3
Lots of exciting plans are underway by the Extension
Advisory Committee for the spring day saluting all women of
the area. The big event will be at the Elks' Club, Heppner,
and will include special guest speakers, slides of Europe, fun
things, a salad luncheon, and show of local arts.
"There's bound to be something of interest to every
woman, and men, too," reports Birdine Tullis. "We'll be
getting out more information soon.. .but right now, mark that
date as a special to attend ! "
All Extension study group women will be involved in the
event.. .and when that many women work on something, it
has to be a winner, she said.
Irrigon 4-H'ers Plan Plant Sale
The spring plant sale by all 4-H clubs in Irrigon has become
an annual event, with proceeds going to worthy causes! This
year the plant sale, which offers a wide variety of growing
things, including trees, will be held at the City Service
Station, Irrigon, on April 23, 24. Marge Shade and Rose
Wilson, leaders for the sale, are busy gathering their bounty
from local yards and nurseries.
The sale will be right on the main highway, so be sure to
look for it if you are driving through!
4-H Events to Remember
The sunshine reminds us that summer is not far away, and
family vacations and plans will be made soon. Summer 4-H
camp, a highligh for members fourth through seventh
grades, will be at Cutsforth Park, June 27-30. All members in
this age group should mark those dates on their calendars.
June offers other opportunities for 4-H'ers, with Summer
Week on campus of Oregon State University June 12-18 for
junior high, and senior high school members.
Two shows that attract local livestock exhibitors are the
Wheat League Show in The Dalles, June 5-8, and the Union
Show, June 8-11. Both are open to all 4-H livestock members.
The Dalles' show includes meat judging contests which are
open to all 4-H girls and boys.
For more information concerning any of the events, call
676-9642, Extension Office.
Microwave Workshop.. .Filled
The Extension-OMZI microwave classes filled to capacity
almost instantly, and many names are on a standby list.
Those who got in under the line will receive information soon.
Currently, Extension is attempting to arrange more OMZI
instructions for those who were not able to attend the May
sessions.
4-H'ers Get Ready to Travel
Debbie Paustian and Tim Jones, two lucky Morrow County
4-H members, will be attending an orientation program this
month in Portland, in preparation for their summer trip to
Japan. Tentative plans call for Oregon 4-H exchangees to
leave July 20, and return late August. The two Morrow
County youths are among the 15 chosen for the summer
travel event. Shelley Osborne, OSU student who spent time in
Morrow County last summer, will travel with the group as
one of the chaperones.
Two local families have answered the appeal for more host
families for IFYE's coming to Oregon this summer. We'll
look forward to the possibility of international visitors here,
too!

D.W. Cannon requested per
mission to rezone a portion of
land south of Irrigon, but
within the city limits, from
farm Residential to low den
sity Residential. He was re
ferred to the planning com
mission. The council decided that
since the area surrounding the
city limits comprises a buffer
zone that will affect the city by
requiring city services, it
would be desirable to bring
about orderly growth in this
area. A request will be made
to the Morrow County Plan
ning Commission to enact
procedures necessary to re
quire that development within
this buffer zone be in 5 acre
parcels rather than the cur
rent 1 acre parcels.
