Anyone with opinions, or suggestions please contact Merlyn Robinson who is in charge of this, said a club spokesperson. "We really need your help in this to make our 1981 show a bigger success and so it will run smoothly." Some discussion was heard on whether to combine the horse show and games or have just a horse show. The Cowboy Breakfast held on the Sunday morning of Rodeo week is the club's one and only money making project for the year. This money is used for grounds maintenance and repairs, said a club spokesperson. Plans are in progress now for this event. Members should be thinking about what you would like to work on for the breakfast as it will soon be here. Discussion about the club's sponsoring of an open jackpot rodeo this summer was held. It was decided to continue this at the next meeting for further plans. The meeting was adjourned and a big thank you is extended to the Roger Britt family for hosting the evening. A board of directors meet ing will be held in January.

Forrest Sneva, a USDA range scientist at Oregon State University's Eastern Oregon Agricultural Research Center at Bums, is coordinat ing Oregon, Idaho and Nevada researcher's studies of the impact of Mount St. Helens ash on the growth of range forages, water infiltration In rangeland and cattle's ability to eat food mixed with ash. The forage growth research is being conducted at OSU's Squaw Butte research site west of Burns and at the University of Nevada at Reno. , A water infiltration study is underway at Squaw Butte; the cattle study is underway at OSU's Union agricultural re search facility near La Grande, and USDA scientists at the Snake River conserva tion Center at . Kimberly, Idaho, have contributed to the , research by analyzing the physical and mineral proper- ties of ash used in the tests. ', Sneva. who trucked loads of ash from several parts of ' j western and eastern Washing ' ton just two weeks after Mount St. Helens exploded May 18, i said he had identified ho ! major problems in forage growth. "There appears to be a slight reduction in yield in a .plot of crested wheatgrass we covered with' ash from the Moses Lake area (in eastern Washington). But' so far 'there's no indication of toxic . jty or anything like that," Sneva said. ! The scientist explained that I feyA. HERMIST0N STORE ONU" jj I . .' (i, MtiL A TOY OF YOUR CHOICE ...

Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, test effect of the ash that reached eastern Washington last May was fighter and fluffier than ash that fell closer to Mount St. Helens. He said the fluffier ash "stands up higher" on rangeland plots and he spec ulated that it may be harder for rangegrass seeds to germ inate and grow shoots through the fluffy ash than through heavier ash obtained from areas such as Yakima, Wash., because the shoots have farther to go to break, into the open. OSU range scientist John Buckhouse, who is conducting the water filtration study using a rainfall simulator device on plots covered with ash from several areas, said early tests suggest lighter ash that fell in eastern Washington ' may cause more infiltration problems- and greater sedi ment runoff than heavier ash from western' Washington. However, firm conclusions cannot be drawn from the study yet. he said. Martin Vavra, an animal scientist at OSU's Union research, facility, is supervis- '. ing experiments with how well cattle digest dusted forage and grain mixed with ash. Using steers fitted with plastic tubes in the side of their stomachs, the' Union researchers are testing how well cattle digest range for age, alfalfa and grass hays and combinations of alfalfa, hay and grain mixed with varying quantities and types . of Mount St. Helens ash. The researchers also are using digestive fluid obtained from the animals to run V laboratory tests on how ash affects the digestibility of . various forages. Vavra expects to complete the work and analyze the data volcano on livestock by the first of the year. Sneva, project coordinator, and the other researchers will present , a report on initial findings at a meeeting of the International Range Society in Tulsa, Okla., in February. " "' Sneva said the research, being funded through the general operating budgets of the scientists, probably will continue for years. "We'll be looking at these ash test plots at Squaw Butte ior 15, 20 maybe 25 years," he said. The USDA scientist said he decided to conduct the range forage work at Burns shortly after Mount St. Helens erup ted and spewed ash through the northwest and other parts of the country last May.

Also participating in the joint research are Hank May land, a USDA researcher at the Snake River Conservation Center In Idaho, and Ray Evans and Jim Young, USDA scientists studying the effect of ash on seed germination at the University of Nevada's Renewable Resource Center in Reno. Carlton Britton, a Texas Tech University range scien tist formerly employed at the Oregon Agricultural Experi ment Station's eastern Oregon branch station at Burns, helped Sneva coordinate the project and is helping analyze collected data. for dispatch call collect 567-6173 THIS. 4
