The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday November 16, 1978 FIVE
Japan-Morrow County friendships
Friendships between Ore
gon 4-Hers and Japanese Labo
exchangees go on and on, and
continue through the years. A
recent example of the friend
ships and contacts across the
miles is the return of Misako
Machatori to visit with her
former host family, the Del
Pipers, of Lexington. Misako
was one of the very first group
of Japanese students to Ore
gon on the exchange, visiting
in the Piper home five years
ago. Now very much a young
lady, and a freshman at the
University of Oregon, Misako
has returned to visit her
Oregon family. She will be
spending Christmas vacation
with "her family", and prob
ably many more occasions, as
her plans call for four years of
college in Oregon.
CHECK SHRUBS NOW FOR
SOIL MOISTURE
After all the rain of the past
summer, it may come as a
shock to be reminded that soil
conditions are now dry!
Check the soil around the
shrubs in your yard, and give
them a good soaking before
storing your garden hoses for
the winter. Moisture is especi
ally needed by those shrubs
very near your home founda
tion, as most homes have
overhanging leaves that do not
allow sufficient moisture from
a light rain to reach the roots
of these plants. Your shrubs
will winter better if there is
moisture in the soil when
freezing temperatures occur.
FUELWOOD FACTS
Fireplaces and wood stoves
are rapidly gaining promi
nence as a supplemental or
primary source of heat for
homes. Shortages as well as
rising costs of other energy
sources have caused many to
utilize wood as a heating fuel,
and still others to consider the
use of wood.
Wood stoves, as well as
fireplaces are rapidly gaining
prominence as a primary, or
supplemental heat source in
homes. The warmth and cheer
of a wood fire are popular
reminders of the past, and
provide an economical heat
source. Do you buy a cord or a
rick of wood? And which type
of wood will provide the most
heat? Which burns longest, or
has less ash? These and many
other facts are explained in a
bulletin from OSU Extension
Engineering department. If
you are an old hand at cutting
wood, or a novice, you'll find
interesting information in
"Fuelwood Facts", WRAES
bulletin No. 70, available at
Extension offices. Another
good one is "Types of Wood
Stoves", WRAES No. 103. '

MARKET BASKET
Velma Seat, OSU Extension
Food Marketing specialist,
provides us with monthly tips
on which foods are in season,
good buys and other timely
Extension Events...
with Birdine Tullis
money saving tips on foods.
We feel this information is of
interest to all consumers, and
will use it monthly:
Apples, Apples, Apples! It's'
a near record crop. Quality is
excellant and prices are
generally moderate. Select
from Red and Golden Delici
ous, Rome Beauties (perfect
for baking), Newtowns and
Jonathans. Delight the family
and add variety to the menu
with dishes such as apple pie,
apple cake, baked apples and
pork chops with fried apple
slices.
Another main attraction in
produce departments is pears.
All varieties are available,
including Bosc, D'Anjous and
Cornice. Pears are picked
green and usually need a few
days extra ripening when
purchased from the store.
They are ready to eat or
refrigerate when there is a
slight softening near the stem
end.
Pomegranates and persim
mons are in the markets.
Prices are actually a little
lower than they've been for
the last couple years. This is
one of the peak seasons for
Hawaiian papaya.
Grapefruit quality is im
proving and prices should
start coming down very soon.
Tangelos from Florida have
made their appearance.
Weather has delayed Navel
oranges which should be in the
markets soon.
Sweet flavored new crop
nuts are available. Prices are
high because this year's crops
are smaller than usual.
There are many fall vegeta
bles available at reasonable
prices. These include broccoli,
cauliflower, cabbage and
brussels sprouts. The "cab
bage cousins" retain their
color better if the lid is left off
during the first part of the
cooking period.
Vitamin A-rich Hubbard,
Acorn and Butternut squash
are moderately priced. When
baking Butternut or Danish
squash, try filling halves with
chopped apples and brown
sugar.
Oregon produces some of
the best onions in the country,
and Oregon onions are plenti
ful. The potato crop is a good

markets.
The cost of meat presents a
problem to many family food
buyers. To stretch food bud-
gets, families may need to
change some of their meat
buying and cooking habits.
You can buy more pounds of
meat with the same number of
dollars if you read the weekly
food ads and buy the meats
featured at special prices.
Some families may help solve
budget problems by decreas
ing their meat consumption.
This means buying the
amount needed for nutritional
adequacy, but not necessarily
the amount of meat people like
to eat.
GOOD NEWS! NEW 4-H
CLUBS READY FOR MEM
BERS Several new leaders are
ready to start their 4-H club
year, and will welcome mem
bers. Paul Hanson and Wayne
Wilson will now accept mem
bers for a mechanical science
club in Heppner that will offer
expert guidance to boys and
girls interested in small
motors. Each member will
have their own motor to tear
down, and repair (Wayne and
Paul have located motors and
will have them available for
the club members) Both men
are expert mechanics, so this
club offers a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for the kids to
learn all about engines.
Paul not only flies his own
spray planes, but maintains
the motors as well, so he can
really offer a world of
mechanical skills. Wayne has
a diesel and automotive repair
business where the meetings
will be held. We would
encourage parents to contact
one of the two leaders im
mediately, or call Extension
office w 676-9642 to enroll their
boys or girls.
For those interested in
livestock, a choice of two new
club opportunities is availa
ble. Bill Doherty, Lexington,
who was an outstanding Mor
row 4-H member, now is ready
to start a new club for those in
the Sand Hollow area, or
others who could attend there.
Bill stresses that he wants his
club to be a family affair, with
younger brothers and sisters
welcome to attend. He rem
embers the good times of his
club years and plans a very
traditional 4-H club. Beef,
sheep, swine, any livestock
25
project member is welcome.
Call him, or call 676-9642, but
do it now!
Dwight Bailey, Buttercreek,
an experienced leader who
has just moved in from
Roseburg, would like to get his
club underway immediately!
You'll find the Bailey family
on the Charlie Daly place, so if
the area is convenient for you,
stop by and welcome the
family to Morrow County, and
enroll your kids in his club!
Visiting with the Baileys, it
was easy to learn he is a
knowledgeable livestock
grower with lots of good ideas
to share with our 4-H pro
gram. Call 376-9307 or 676
