EIGHT-The Heppner Gaiette-Tlmes, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday. October 22. 1981 Morrow Co. 4-H needs members, leader By BIRDINE TULLIS. Extension Service 4-11 Beginning Again Recruitment is underway in Morrow County for both 4-H members and leaders. TJie recent National 4-H Week launched efforts in the couifty to get the word out to all youth 4th through 12th grades that 4-H is a program offering a wide variety of opportunities ranging from participation in. a project club near their home, to traveling overseas for an exchange visit in a host home. There are projects for every interest...liwestock, foods, clothing, international, creative arts, bicycle, dog, and on and on. The 4-H staff, John Nord heim and Birdine Tullis visit ed each elementary school in the county, showing slides of the wide variety of events in which 4-H'ers were involved the past year, and inviting membership in the youth development program. Events of the recruitment period included 4-H family nights in brih Heppner and Irvgon, win everyone inter ested in Vm:ng about 4-H invited to attend, as well as recognition of members for achievements of the past year. Successful events were report ed from both events. The key to youth programs in the county are the adults who volunteer leadership. At this point in time there are many young people wanting to join a club, but few adults willing to sht re their time by serving as leaders. Many adults do not realize that the 4-H club activities may be scheduled to their lifestyle. The leader may choose to have as many meetings as they wish. They may be at any time; and scheduled for long or short term projects. For instance, a club such as cake decorating might well meet six times and achieve the eductational goal selected by the leader. Or a photography club might meet only at such time of the year that the members want to get out and take photographs of land scapes. There are great satis factions, too, for adults as they have an opportunity to share their time and skills with kids eager to learn. Liking kids is the most important skill needed for being a 4-H leader. Some adults presently lead ing 4-H clubs are willing to take more members; some have more than they can accomodate in their clubs. There is a special need right now in Heppner for a leader willing to work with younger girls teaching them the basic sewing skills. For information about join ing 4-H as a member, or a leader, contact John Nord heim or Birdine Tullis, they will be happy to help. Call 676-9642 anytime. Part of Every Food Dollar Pays For Packaging - If you are griping about the high cost of foods, you might be interested in the following information from a specialist who says that many times you are paying more for the wrapping or packaging than you are for the food product inside. "About one out of every eleven dollars spent for food and beverages goes to pay for packaging," says Velma Seat, OSU Specialist. "This includes all packaging, from the simple paper wrap pings for butter or margarine to the elaborate crush proof STEPHENS SEED WHEAT IF Y60 OSU Certified (Ask for certification papers, Cost no more) Big seed To minimize noxious weed problems B. c (Goat grass, Etc..) D. Reasonable prices E. Treated with Vitavax F. ALL OF THE ABOVE!! Cell Eric AndtrsMi km, C3t 97S43 422-7204 canisters and Styrofoam bev erage Insulators." Over half of all paper, metal and glass packaging used in this country is used to wrap, can and hot He eHihle products. How' much does all (Ihis cost? In about one-fourth of all food and beverage industries, the packaging and container costs are more than the value of the food ingredient used, according to Velma Seat. Oregon State University Ex tension food marketing spec ialist. Beer packaging value is five time the value of beer. Ready-to-mix desserts, chips, table syrups, and other pre pared foods, chewing gum and oft drinks have a packaging value of about twice the value of the raw agricultural ingred ient. In breakfast cereals the packaging is worth about one and a half times the value of the raw product. This ratio is about the same for soups, baby foods, frozen entrees and Public invited to 'Make it with Wool' contest Oct. 24 By BIRDINE TULLIS The public is invited to attend two special, events of the Make It Yourself With Wool Contest, Saturday, Oct. 24 at the Catholic Parish Hall in Heppner.

"The value of packaging is about equal to the cost of the raw food ingredient for can ned truits and vegetables, pet foods, and distilled spirits," Seat notes. Packaging for condiments, wines, cookies, cake mixes, and crackers amount to about 90 percent of the value of the products. For flavorings, the relative value of the package is about 75 percent, while pasta and ice cream is about 60 percent. The package value of bread and candy is about half that of the food. "Red meats, raw produce, cheese, sugar and butter packaging value is only three to five percent of the value of the food," says Seat. "It is interesting that the food and food products which take the largest share of your food dollar use packaging which costs the least." ants, at which all awards are presented is open to the public, as well as a program on fashions and fabrics by Dorothy Hurrle, fashion con' sultant at Veras Buttonhole, Hermiston.

When you think of Steiger, chances are you think of the toughest, hardest-pulling 4 WD tractors around and with good reason. But no one ever said the best had to be the most expensive.
