We are always asking leaders to travel and spend their money on lunch, so this time we decided to turn the tables and make it our treat! Some other thoughts I'd like to share. ..thanks to two spe cial 4-H people for helps provided this week. To Ruth McCabe, 4-H leader, for as sisting with a "Pants" train ing in Irrigon, by providing a very educational update on correct methods for pressing woolens and woven fabrics.... and to Jan Peterson, older 4-H member, who shared her views and experiences with the elementary school kids at lone as we recruited for 4-H members. One of the fringe benefits of 4-H work is having the help of such great people. The time is quickly ap proaching for us to tell our sta te office if we wish to host a group of Japanses exchange students next spring! If you'd like to add an international flavor to your family group, call now to find out more about the Oregon 4-H, Japan-Labo exchange. We need to know host families interested by November 15. Call 676-9642, or Mrs. Roger Palmer, for more information.

The local cook book idea was born last spring, and got off to a good start, but summer activities and other projects interfered with the projected publication date. Requests have already been received for the book. ..so Cowbelles are again on the search for materials for the book. What do they want to include? A favorite recipe from every family in the county, Birdine said, and hopefully a little history of the recipe or family. Speical hints for making and serving; which family member likes it most; family holiday traditions, or just any personalizing that can be added to make it a very special treasure type recipe book. Everyone is invited to submit their favorite recipes they need not be original, but Cowbelles hope they have been "home tested". Anyone with a livestock brand is asked to include a sketch of their brand, to be used in the decoration of the book. Take a minute, write up your favorite recipes (you may submit any number), send to Birdine Tullis Box 397, Heppner, or to Susie Ward, Rt. 2 Heppner. Cowbelles ask that all recipes be received by November 11. The U.S. Interior Depart ment has added a public hearing in Oregon to those already scheduled in the West on the 160-acre limitation governing federal irrigation projects. The Nov. 8 hearing in Klamath Falls was added to the schedule at the request of Oregon congressional leaders Mark Hatfield and Al Ullman. The hearings being con ducted are on regulations proposed by the Interior Department to implement more strictly a 1902 law restricting the amount ,of acreage allowed for each farmer with a federal irriga tion project. " Hatfield and Ullman have co-sponsored a bill that would allow farms larger than 160 acres to be retained by project irrigators. The law would have an impact on Morrow County when the bombing range is released from Navy posses sion in that, in all liklihood, federal monies would be integrated into an irrigation project for the land. There is a strong movement to have that 50,000 acres of land returned to the smaller corporate or family farmer. : i Commodity groups set budgets Producers of agricultural products represented by 18 Oregon commodity commis sions will provide some $3.3 million for product promo tions, research and improved markets for the commodities during the 1977-78 fiscal year. The budgets this year for the 18 commissions totaled $3,383,459.88. Budgets of the various commissions range from the low of $23,000 of the Oregon Danver Onion Com mission to that of the Oregon Dairy Products Commission which is $1,138,886.88. Funds for these commis sions are provided through assessments levied at the time of the first sale of the product. 4-H Club Report The Patch Work Pockets 4-H sewing club met in lone on Friday, Oct. 21 at Oswalts' home.
