4-H CLUBS FORMING FOR
NEW YEAR
SMALL ANIMAL CLUB
A new club that should be of
interest to both town and
county kids is ready to roll.
Jennifer Breeden, Lexington,
is organizing a small animal
or pet club, which she hopes
will attract members with
rabbits, chickens, gerbils, or
any small animal. Jennifer
feels there is a need for such a
club, as many young people do
not have facilities to raise a
large animal, but still need the
experience of caring for an
animal. Showing a rabbit or
other small animal, requires
training, and expertise, just
like the larger animals. All
young people are welcome to
join the club. Information on
meeting date and place may
be obtained by calling Mrs.
Breeden at 676-9898. Any older
youth interested in assisting
as a junior leader would also
be very welcome!
BEGINNING CLOTHING
AND FOODS
Kathy Hazen, Heppner, a
new leader, is starting her
club activities for the year.
Three or four beginning, or
second year, members inter
ested in clothing and foods will
be welcomed to her club. For
information, call 676-9409.
FOOD CLUB FOR BEGIN
NERS IN BUTTERCREEK
AREA
Claudia Hughes has indicat
ed she is willing to work with
Buttercreek area youth in a
beginning foods project. You
may call her, also, for more
information.

UNITY

off after the blossom has
separated from the seed. Then
finish curing the seeds in a

may be eaten, or stored in a
