EIGHT The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday February 8, 1979 Daytime adult education held Wednesday at CBEC Sign-up period for the 1979 Feed Grain Wheat Set Aside programs will be Feb. 15 through April 30, according to Ray Fitzgerald, administrator of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Stabilization and Conserva tion Service (ASCS). The sign-ups will be held in ASCS county offices. This year producers may certify their fall-seeded crops barley and winter wheat during sign-up and not have to make a separate visit to the county ASCS office, Fitzgerald said. The sign-up period which had been tentatively set to end in mid-April, is being length ened two weeks to give county ASCS employees sufficient time to handle the "added workload of simultaneous certification, he said. Fitzgerald also said farmers should consider taking ad- vantage of pre-measurement service before planting to guarantee the size of their fields. County ASCS offices have details of the pre measurement service. Feed grain set aside sign-up starting Feb. 15 as a second language, or a refresher course aimed at improving basic reading and math skills, are urged to sign up between 2:30 and 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 14 at the Columbia Basin conference room.
