gets less money
Morrow County was one of
only two counties in the state

money this year than it did
last year from revenue from
the sale and use of national
forest products and services.
Umatilla County was the
other one.
Morrow County received
$320,440.19 in 1978 but only
$306,464.86 for 1979. Umatilla
County received $875,402.58 in
1978 and $873,258.24 in 1979.
The other 29 counties received
more in 1979 "than 1978.

million as . their share of
revenues from the sale and

If you are tired of the
holiday turkey and leftovers,
it might be time to consider
other foods that are currently
best buys. If you are an oyster
lover, there are adequate
supplies available to meet
demand, although prices are
higher than a year ago. Pork
supplies are large, so perhaps
a pork roast would be a treat
this cool weather.
Bringing off-season vegeta
ble prices down a bit are new
shipments from Mexico. In
cluded are green peppers,
green beans, cucumbers, egg
plant and zucchini. Tomatoes
from Mexico will start in
January.
Turnips, rutabagas, par
snips and carrots are in ample
supply at moderate prices.
Other easy-on-the-budget
vegetables are hubbard
squash, potatoes, onions, cab
bage and head lettuce.
The navel orange crop is a
big one and prices should
continue to trend down. Tan
gerines, tangelos and man
darin oranges are also in good
supply. There are good values
on grapefruit, although grape
fruit are not plentiful and
prices probably won't go
much lower.
Colombia mines
Colombia mines 90 percent
of the world's emeralds.
Other available fresh fruits
are D'Anjou pears and apples.
Fresh cranberries are very
scarce. This is because a large
part bf the crop was weather
damaged and went to the
processors.
There is information avail
able from the Oregon State
University Extension Service
to help those just beginning to
sew at home or to up-date the
experienced home sewer.
In fact, a selection of the
free Extension publications
would go well with the new
sewing machine which ap
pears in many homes this time
of year. Extension circulars
and bulletins, available from
Extension county offices, can
help people learn about diffeiv
ent sewing techniques, select
patterns and fabrics that fit
the individual, understand the
nature of fabrics and even how
to re-do parts of the wardrobe
for a second time around-
For those interested in
making-over clothing, the
publication on "How to Recy
cle Clothing by Restyling and
Making Over," might be
helpful. All are available free
at the Morrow County Exten
sion Service.
