$489,890. These monies will be
used for beef education in
schools, consumer informa
tion programs, advertising,
promotion and public rela
tions programs, for the Ore
gon beef industry.
A considerable amount of
this budget has been allocated
for national beef programs
which will be administered by
the national Beef Council of
the National Live Stock and
Meat Board. Rosebrook stated
that, "Even though we have
excellent programs in Oregon
and throughout the western
United States, it is most
important that beef promotion
organizations like ourselves
help fund a national program
which will reach the large
population centers of the east
coast and to some degree the
mid-west. There is consider
able misinformation concern

us to give the consumers
proper nutritional information
concerning beef.
Monies received by the
Oregon Beef Council are
generated by the sale of cattle
and calves, by deducting
funds from producers and
feeders at the time of sale.
Today there are 26 Beef
Councils in the United States.
Oregon is the second oldest
council, having its start in 1959

A wheat weaving class will
be taught by Judy Wright this
next fall. The class is offered
through Blue Mountain Com

Now is the time to begin
gathering the wheat. It should
be gathered in the "dough"
stage.
Wheat will be in the dough
stage about two weeks before
harvest and will have just
turned from green to yellow

standing straight. There will
be approximately 4 6 inches

it is "doughy" the wheat is
Just right. Wheat cut in the
dough stage will be the most
pliable and better in color.
Ripe wheat may also be used
but will not be as workable
and there will be more waste.
Cut the wheat 4 6 inches
from the ground. Tie into a
bundle, keeping the heads on
one end of the bundle. Hang or
stack loosely so air will
circulate around the bundle of
wheat.
When ready to use cut the
wheat just above the first
joint. Slide the leaf sheaf away
and discard. This will leave
you a clean, slender straw
with head attached. Soak
clean wheat in cold water for
30 minutes and then roll in a
wet towel. This will keep
wheat in a workable condition
for several hours.

Although a great many folks went traveling about Inst
week and over the 4th, I Just stayed home and enjoyed
visiting with two young fellows from rather distant places,
from England and from New York.
Last Wednesday afternoon my neighbor, Jack Loyd,
brought Kathy Jensen and her soccer-playing, English-Irish
nephew, Steve Murphy, to my livlngroom. Besides talking
about soccer and his work and future plans, we vlstited
about the coming royal wedding. It seems some Americans
are objecting to the cost of the ceremony - but the British
love the big show both sentimentally and practically.
Practicality It will mean a real shot on the arm to their
sagging economy. Many have found employment manufac
turing wedding keepsakes and souvenirs, some rather
inexpensive and some very costly, which they hope will have
a tremendous sale. Business establishments which will really
boom include the tour companies, hotels, restaurants,
haberdashery firms and ladies' fashion houses.
Steve said that seeing Prince Charles and Lady Di on the
tely many times each day was getting a bit tiresome. I bet It
is getting a bit tiresome, too, for the royal couple who are
watched every minute and have their every move and every
word discussed pro and con by every media.
Wednesday evening the Swansons, lone, told me that a
chap from New York would be bicycling through Heppner on
Thursday morning and suggested I might meet him at the
newspaper office for a chat.
When we talked I learned that he, Dave Siskind, had just
completed his baccalaureate work at Cornell University
where I told him my neighbor, John Rawlins, who now hus
his Ph. D., is teaching. This surprised him. I tried to reach
John's mom, Jane Rawlins, who along with husband. Bill,
had so enjoyed visiting in Ithica and on the Cornell campus at
the time of John's wedding there in 1979, but Jane didn't
return home from her second summer workshop until
evening.
After George and Helen Currin returned from their
traveling and visiting around the Redmond, Eugene and
Molalla areas, I told Helen about the New York man who
bicycled through here. She said that they sow lots of
bicyclists, some in groups, along the state highways. So,
young folks are saving on gasoline and using their own
energy for traveling-good for them. As the Currins come
home through Mitchell they noticed that the hotel there is
advertising "Bicyclers Welcome - $5 per night."
Over the 4th I tried to catch up with some yard work that I
should have done in April or early May when I was too busy
going to classes and taking field trips. But the weeds waited
until the rains stopped and until 1 got so embarrassed about
them I finally got my determination up and tackled them.
As I struggled against the tall quack grass and weeds and
the hundreds of sprouting, small, vigorous Dutch Elms
everywhere on my lot. which are offspring of the two huge
trees which provide cool shade during the summers and huge
piles of leaves to rake and haul away each fall. I recalled the
saying "He who plants trees loves others beside himself."
I kept my little radio going beside me with lots of music and
hourly news to cheer my lonely efforts. Whenever I looked up
I observed a stream of families with camping, boating and
picnic gear heading up Willow Creek on Friday and
Saturday . Sunday afternoon and evening they were returning
toward their homes.
I hope they all found pretty places to have mountain fun.
Some brought home firewood. I remembered how tough the
road to Penland Lake was the last time I went up there about
twelve months ago.
Holiday treats which came to my kitchen and table
Included lovely, sweet, dark-red. un-spllt cherries from
Kimberly brought back by Tom Rawlins, freshly picked
raspberries from my own bushes and delicious broccoli and
tender lettuce from the thriving Thongdy plantings in my
garden plot.
A picture from the Pendleton E-O of June 13, which 1 saved,
shows a man holding an U'i-pound puffball mushroom that
he found on the Hill Grade east of Pendleton. I thought this
must be a record, but records are only set to be broken. So now
that clipping takes second place in my mushroom facts
collection to the 17 pound and 14 ounce giant puffball that Ed
Tarnasky, Heppner, brought in from near Gurdane that he
and son A.J. are shown holding in last week s G T.
Personally I was disappointed in the results of last week's
voting. I thought that the road levy needed to be approved.
Keeping up and improving the roads is so essential to the
welfare of everyone. Yet the majority of those who voted
were against the levy. Returns showed that the three lurger
incorporated communities with more retail business
establishments voted down the levy while smaller lone and
Lexington favored it. More disappointing to me than how the
voting went was the fact that only 26 percent of our registered
voters went to mark ballots. The growing lethargy toward
participating in our democratic process seems fraught with
dangers.
Wasn't the weatherman thoughtful over the three-day
holiday In not letting much rain fall here "until after Sunday
afternoon when most everyone needed to head home to get
ready to go back to work? That cool night's sleep people got
and the really clean, fresh feeling of Monday morning must
have made them feel ready to plunge into their daily jobs
again on July 6.
