Good officer reports were
heard. Many officers had
attended the installation

CWA conferences and other
granges. Two officers had
attended National Grange in
Spokane with other members
of Pomona. The CWA chair
man received several good
reports that most clubs are
promoting the deaf program,
saving hearing aid batteries
and working for nursing
homes. One club made 51 lap
robes for a nursing home and
some gave money to the State
Hospital in Pendleton and
various nursing homes. All
clubs are accomplishing many
things.
Vernon Root gave an inte
resting tulk on soil erosion In
our district. This is a concern
of most furmers and much is
being done to help the problem
such as rough summer fallow,
spraying stubble, terracing
and diversion ditches, among
other methods. The wheat
program for next year is
reported at 15 percent set
aside, $4.05 target price, and
loan rate $3.55.

on the electric rates and the
long range plans for electri
city. Joe DuPuis told of a
program called Lifeline, for
elderly on low incomes. The
program is to offset their
electric expenses. Different
ideas were brought to light
with the main thought being,
"We must study this problem
and plan for the future." A
report was heard on how the
high cost of electricity effects
corn growers in the middle
states, and their many pro
blems, all similar to the local
farmers.
