Mary Ann Cerullo Idea Exchange It's Idea RxchanRe time again, tast month I asked that people drop by their ideas at the Gazette office, but as you can see, there wasn't much of a response. But people here in the office have come up with some more helpful hints that I'd like to pass along. If you have any household or garden hints just bring them by or mail them to the Heppner Gazette-Times, Box 337, Heppner 97Rr6. I welcome any and all ideas. Do you love broiled meat but hate the mess it makes in the oven? Put water in your broiling pan and it'll stop the meat from spattering all over, Eileen Saling This one is good for people getting married. Instead of struggling over forcing the ring on your spouse's finger during the ceremony, rub a little oil on it before the service and it'll slip right on his or her finger. Norma Bessey To start your tomato plants or flowers in the spring, take an old styrofoam egg carton and cut off the top. Save the eggshells and fill them with dirt, planting the seeds within. Set the filled eggshells in the egg carton. When the plants are at least two inches high, lift the eggshell from the carton and plant It in the garden or flower bed. The eggshell should be set beneath the ground. Patti Allstott Have you just bought a new car and don't look forward to scraping off the sticker on the window? Don't scrape. Just soak a rag in white vinegar and wipe the sticker off. That awful glue will just dissolve away.

IS IOSC Summer Session INFO: l-eCO-432-1639 1 Making a good saddle is a challenge, hard work, and something she en joys, says Bonnie Paullusof Heppner who is building this year's Morrow County Rnrleo saddle for Kinzua Corp. I've always liked working with leather," she says while hammering out a design on the saddle to be given away to best calf roper this year. She's been working with leather for a total of 15 years, and says she attended a five-month saddle making school in Brownsf ield. Ore . in 1977. Under a private instructor. Bonnie made five saddles at the school, three of which she has sold. One saddle has won awards best of show, special award and first prize at the Morrow County Fair. The hardest part of making a complete saddle, which she says lakes two and one half weeks of fulllime work, is to make the saddle fit the person. "It can't be too high or too low. yon have to make the seat just right." Bonnie points out that much of the time involved in saddle making is waiting for the leather, which is wetted down for working to dry. I'd rather work on a saddle than anything else." says Bonnie. "There really is a challenge, because everyone wants something different." lone Grand Squares host dinner, mmwm I I m . 111. in n. mum n .1 I II iui.i y ... piliJii ..1 nHmrtm'mmimmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmimmm (.noU from the Olvmpia Grand Squares Club decked out in their buttons and bows during the dance.
