Summer Recess
Most planned events for
homemakers involved in the
Extension Family Living Pro
gram take a summer break in
Morrow County. Study groups
are meeting in May for their
final meeting until September,
as well as advisory and
program development groups.
We recognize that summer
should be a family time, as
well as the fact that many of
our interested women have
more farm responsibility dur
ing harvest months.
A plus for me is that the
break from adult activities
allows more time for 4-H
summer camp, special pro
grams, and preparations for
county fair. So happy sum
mertime to all ! We hope to see
you involved again in the fall.

The Wonders of Wheat .
. .Lisa Nelson, Morrow Wheat
hearts Chairman, recently
brought to my attention a 14
minute film, available from
Oregon Wheat Commission,
which might be of interest to a
variety of groups, as well as
4-H foods leaders. "The Won
ders of Wheat" emphasizes
the importance of wheat in
human nutrition, by outlining
the role of bread in world
history and the development
of cultures since the Neolithic
Age, and even sneaks in a
step-by-step bread making
demonstration.
The film is available from
the Wheat Commission Office,
or by calling Lisa.
Oregon Wheat Growers Live
stock Show.. .The Dalles
Have you reminded your 4-H
members of this event? Clubs
or individuals may eflter the
4-H Livestock Judging Con
test, and Meats Judging
Contest, Monday, June 5,
without pre-registration. Re
gistration time for livestock is
noon, with contest at 1 p.m.
The 4-H Meats Judging
Contest is open to all 4-H
members, and will also be
June 5, with registration at
2:30p.m. and contest at 3 p.m.
We especially encourage food
club members to participate
in the meats judging.
Although we have no mem
bers exhibiting animals at The
Dalles show this year, we
encourage clubs to participate
in the judging events, to gain
valuable experience in pre
paration for our county fair.
This would be a good club
extra event.. .to enjoy the
livestock show, as well.
4-H Camp.. .June 29-July 2
We want to be sure all
4-H'ers, 4th through 7th
grades, are including 4-H
Camp at Cutsforth Park in
their summer plans, so we'll
be sending out registration
forms this week. The camp
experience will again be
offered to members of this age
group in Gilliam, Wheeler,
Sherman and Morrow coun
ties. Staff for the event will be
from the four county area, as
well as counselors. v
A Counselor Training and
Planning Session for all coun
selors who will be assisting
with camp was held at Condon
last Sunday afternoon. We feel
the counselors involved in the
actual planning of camp
events are more dedicated to
their jobs, and offer insights
on child-oriented events.
We encourage all interested
members to return their
registration forms immedi
ately, as there is a limit to the
numbers that can be accomo
dated. Registration will be
taken in each county on a
first-come basis.
We are almost ready for,
camp, so plan it into your
family summer experience.
Morrow County growers
may want to reconsider their
participation in the federal
government's wheat set-aside
program in anticipation of a
target price hike to $3.40 a
bushel, according u, Harold
Kerr, Morrow County Exten
sion Agent.
President Carter has signed
a farm bill passed recently by
both the House and Senate
which would permit the 1978
wheat target price to be raised
to $3.40.
Most Morrow County wheat
producers have already
signed up for the program,
according to Kerr. But for
those who have not signed, the
deadline for enrollment has
been extended to May 31. Once
wheat growers have signed
up, they still have until July 1
to make a final decision
regarding compliance.
By participating, growers
become eligible for deficiency
payments on wheat and can
participate in the grain re
serve and qualify for price
support loans.
The increase in the target
price has a significant impact
on the potential deficiency
payment for which participa
te growers will be eligible this
fall. The deficiency payment
is based on the difference
between the wheat target
price and the national average
price for the first five months
of the marketing year June
to October.
' The national average price
for wheat announced for
mid-April was $2.83 per bush
el. If this price holds through
October, the potential defi
ciency payment would be $3.40
minus $2.83, or 57 cents per
bushel, times the grower's
