"Pests in the garden can be
controlled by using compat
ible plants with the emphasis
on herbs," stated Delpha
Jones in her report to the lone
Garden Club at its meeting at
the home of Delta Huber on
May 11. Some interesting facts
that she related were that
basis repels flies and mos
quitoes which are the bain of
tomato growers; marigolds
and nasturtiums make war
against the beetles and nema
todes; nasturtiums also work
against aphids and squash
bugs ; the herb dead nettle and
horseradish repel potato
bugs; the herb chervil keeps
worms and maggots away and
hyssop deters the cabbage
moth. Dill must not be planted
with carrots and peas and
glads are not compatible.
During the business meet
ing, it was reported that we
had a very successful District
No. 10 Blue Mountain meeting
in lone. The Plant Sale on May
5 was a satisfying experience,
with many in the community

dens. The Junior committee
reported that there were 24
entries in the contest for the
use of recyclables for toys and
table favors from the second,
fifth and sixth grades of lone
Elementary School. Corres
pondence from the new Dis

Robert Sproed, 37, of Baker,

Mr. Sproed, an employee of
the plant for 5 or 6 years prior

wright. He was a patient in St.

The accident occurred when
a bracket holding a boom
cable on a crane broke and the
end snapped back, struck and
severed the arm. Mr. Sproed

r.
orincil receives
annexation,
A letter from Union Pacific
R.R. was read at the Irrigon
City Council meeting on May
10, indicating the railroad
tracks would be removed
within the city. No definite
time was set for the action to
be taken.
Doug Cannon and Tom Elms
requested an annexation of 200
acres into the city for orderly
developmenf of the area. The
acreage lays south of and
adjacent to Calif. Ave. It will
be necessary to hold a public
hearing on the annexation
before a decision can be
reached, according to City
Manager David Moon.
The council discussed a
request for purchase of the
city-owned service station.
The building was previously
advertised for sale, with no
bids submitted. The station
will again be advertised for
sale.
Mr. and Mrs. Ted Wilson
requested a liquor license for
the Pivot Point to permit
serving beer with meals. The
rooms where the County of
fices were formerly housed
would be developed into a
dining area. The request was
granted.
Dave McClellan stated his
desire to build 6 homes on 2
acres presently zoned in 1 acre
tracts, on 13th St. Five would
be built immediately and the
sixth would be built where his
mobile home is located now.
He was referred to the
planning commission for con
sideration and was informed
he would need to go through
the subdivision process.
Royal Hovinghoff presented
a protest to the council's
recommendation to the Coun
ty Planning Commission's
plan to rezone the area sur
rounding the city to 5 acre
(Farm) instead of the present
1 acre (Farm Residential).
The land was zoned Farm
Residential from Farm some 3
years ago.
In other business, Marshall
Gene Cain requested that
more gas be allotted for
patrol. This will be considered
at a later council meeting.
A visitor for several days at
the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Froberg was Mrs. Ella
Allen, an old friend of the
family.
YOL'R KLKCTKIC BILL is one of the biggest
bargains you've had. While it probably has been
increasing over the past few years (mainly because
usage in the average home has been growing), the
increase in cost of elec
tricity has been one of
the smallest increases
in the cost of the neces
sities of modern living.
And electricity has done
wonders for you
brightened your nights,
eased your workload
and made your living
more comfortable.
Nevertheless, it
makes good sense to
save money by using
electricity more effic
iently, saving wherever
you can. And wise use of
energy can save you
money and assist in the
conservation of Amer
ica's precious natural
resources.
Energy conservation
is everybody's busi
nessyours and that of
your local publicly own
ed utility. Here are
several suggestions
which your utility offers
in the hope that you can
help save energy re
sources, and save mon
ey at the same time.
