Applications due soon for controlled hunts Application deadlines are nearing for September con trolled hunts for antelope and elk, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Department announ ced. Applications for the ante lope hunts must be received at the Fish and Wildlife Depart ment's Portland office no later than July 5. For controlled hunts of other big game species, the deadline will be July 18. Fees of $1 per application will be required this year to cover the cost of processing controlled hunt applications. If two names are submitted in a party application, the fee will be $2. Controlled hunt regulations and application cards have been mailed to license agen cies throughout the state. Besides the appliances you Use, how you use them makes considerable difference in en ergy costs of food preparation in the home. Data from research is the basis for the following energy conservation tips: Complete oven meals of four to six items are most efficient. To bake six items at one time takes only one-third more energy in a gas oven, and two-thirds more in an electric oven, than baking just one item. Microwave ovens are more efficient for reheating or for cooking small quantities. For ' these they use 30 to 70 per cent less energy than regular ovens. Preparing an entire meal in a microwave, how ever, where each item must be cooked individually, con sumes more energy than if all items were cooked at one time in a conventional oven. Your portable applicances are energy savers in most instances. Portable ovens, frypans and broilers will use from nine to 44 per cent less energy than large ovens or broilers when baking or broil ing in small quantities. With summer coming on, you may want to get out those portable appliances and use them. If you .have them and are not using them, that is another waste of energy, for energy and resources were used in their making.

EXPLANATION OF BALLOT QUESTION The budget of the county-owned hospital has, historically, bee.i balanced by a combination of patient revenues and tax levies. In FY77-78 only, the hospital operated without any taxes, relying instead on reserve funds which are now depleted. Tax support is necessitated by the fact that patient-generated revenues will not be sufficient to pay escalating costs for supplies, materials, equipment, personnel and improvements dictated by regulatory agencies. The $190,082 tax will require a levy of approximately 54 Thousand assessed valuation and is projected as the minimum necessary to maintain satisfactory in-patient, emer gency and nursing-home care services. The only funds for the hospital contained in the county's proposed budget are those being voted on in this ballot. If this measure is approved, the operating budget to be financed by the local taxes will, then, be $190,082 greater than last year.
