pricing and convenience foods
as a good buy. You may

Molly Saul, Box 1107, Pendle
ton 97801. Everyone wants to
make their food dollars go as
far as possible, so enroll now
for help on the subject!
Fun at school
Fringe benefits, like fun
doing wok cookery with the
Heppner Junior High Home
Ec classes, are things that
happen to me as a 4-H person.
Many people may not be
aware that this year a new
home economics program has
been started for junior high
boys and girls, with Liz Curtis
as instructor.
I was delighted to visit their
classes, and, boy, oh boy, did
they ever cook up some good
eating in the woks. The boys
seemed even more interested
in the oriental cookery than
the girls, with several saying
they were going home and
repeat the recipes for dinner
that evening. Actually, what
impressed me most was the
courteous attention they gave
a stranger in their classroom,
as well as how quickly they
started their assigned duties.
I have always felt that boys,
as
well as girls, should be
given opportunities to learn
homemaking survival skills,
as well as to become wise
started, and carried on as a
result of the program.
Actually, the trip is a
bargain, when you consider
Extension Events
with Birdine Tullis
consumers, so I left the school
with the feeling that good
things are happening in the
home ec department.
Horse workshop
John tells me the Horse
Workshop, Saturday, Jan. 13,
at 1 p.m. at the Fairgrounds in
Heppner, will go on; good
weather, or bad. All interested
persons are invited to attend,
along with our 4-H members
and leaders. Topics include,
"Year-around Vet Care,"
"Proper Hoof Care," "Hay
Judging," and "Horse Judg
ing." John has recruited a
number of excellent resource
people to present the program
and we hope you all can turn
out for the training.
LABO applications
due
Any 4-H member 12 through
17 years of age who is looking
for an exciting summer this
year, might want to investi
gate the Oregon 4-H-Japan
Labo Exchange. We have one
applicant so far, Steve Curtis
of Heppner, who has sent in
his application to travel with
the Oregon group.
Applications are available
at extension offices, and must
include a $50 deposit. Remain
der of the costs are paid in
installments, to make it easier
for families to manage the
financing of the trip. Members
visit Japan for a month, living
in host family homes, learning
and living the Japanese
culture. Morrow County has
had a 4-H'er traveling to
Japan every year since the
program was initiated, with
many lifetime friendships
that approximately $800
covers all costs for transporta
tion to Japan, and a month's
living costs! Call for more
information.
Awards and honors
All award donors for the
county fair events were con
tacted recently, and asked if
they wish to continue, or
change their award. Since the
4-H section of the fairpremium
book must be prepared very
soon, we hope all will respond
immediately. Anyone may
sponsor an award for county
fair, or for other 4-H events.
We are always happy to add
others to our list, so if you feel
some area is being overlooked
for recognition of achieve
ment, feel free to call us.
New knitting leader
Debbie Hyatt, Heppner, is
ready and willing to start a
4-H Knitting club in Heppner.
Debbie, a former Wheeler
County 4-H'er, is new to the
area, and does not yet have a
phone. Anyone interested in
joining her club may call
676-9642, and we will see that
she gets the message.

Wheat League to discuss new China market
during Jan. 18 meeting in McNary
The first 1979 meeting of the
Oregon Wheat Growers
League will be held Jan. 18,
1979 at the Columbia Inn in
McNary, announced Earl
Pryor, Condon wheat farmer.
Pryor is the incoming presi
dent of the state-wide wheat
grower organization.
According to Pryor, the
purpose of the meeting of the
board of directors of the
Oregon Wheat Growers
League (OWGL) is to "pri
marily adopt the resolutions
proposed at the annual meet
ing of the OWGL on December
6, 1978." Pryor said that the
OWGL uses the resolutions for
a guide-line to policy for the
coming year.
Also on the agenda will be a
discussion of the overseas
market development program
of Western Wheat Associates.
Recognition of the People's
Republic of China and coming
trade policies will be dis
cussed along with concern
over the protection of the
long-time wheat market of
Taiwan, according to Pryor.
"We're going to try some
thing new," Pryor announced.
"We are going to have an
organizational workshop on
the day after the board
meeting, January 19, 1979. We
have invited all the OWGL
state-wide committee chair
men and the OWGL county
association presidents to
spend the day working on
specific plans for the 1979
coming year."
Pryor said that the 1979
Oregon Legislative year will
bring attention to many areas
of agriculture. He cited
specifically areas of taxation
as particularly important.
About 50 wheat growers are
expected to attend the meetings.
4-H horse events slated
'Calf Survival' is topic
of meeting tonight
Harold Kerr, Morrow
County Agent, announced that
a meeting concerning "Calf
Survival" will be held
Thursday, January 11 at 7:30
p.m. in the Pendleton Grain
Growers conference room, at
the new facility on the
(Hermiston) Hinkle Feedville
road.
Kerr notes that this is an
excellent chance for cattle
men to discuss problems with
two area veterinarians and
hopefully aid them during
calving time.
Morrow County 4-H Horse
Leaders have set the dates for
the 4-H Horse Show and the
'Tune-Up Show'. The 4-H
Horse Show has been set for
July 29, 1979. The same
classes will be offered as in
previous years, according to
John P. Nordheim, Morrow
County Extension Agent.
There has been some clarifi
cation work done on some
rules.
Nordheim also reported the
addition of a new event this
year a 'Tune-Up Show'. This
has been set for May 27, and
promises to be a fun day with
4-H members tuning up them
selves and their horses. Fun
classes include: Australian
pursuit race, three man
rescue race, back-to-back
bareback equitation, bare
back equitation and dollar bill
ride. Also included in the day's
events is a horse judging
contest.
'Basting Bakers9 meet
At the last meeting of the
Basting Bakers, the sewing
and cooking 4-H club in lone,
we went to Heppner to visit
Rita's Fabrics. We looked for
material to make our first
project. We will be making
pants.
At our other sewing meet
ing, we finished our pincush
ions and we will use them on
our pants that we will make.
In January, at our cooking
meeting, we will make cookies
and we will have fun!
