If you think you have a
difficult landscaping problem
or if you want to reorganize
and beautify your yard, go and
look at what Janice and Leslie
Paustian have done at 340
Barratt Drive in Heppner.
The Paustians bought their
dark-brown house about eight
years ago from Virginia and
Hal Whitaker. It sat on an
unimproved, rocky hillside.
Jan and Les struggled with
several ideas for the land
scaping during their years of
work there.
They have really achieved
much all around their home,
but particularly in the big,
flower-surrounded lawn area
behind the house. For two
years, with the help of a back
hoe and a D-8 cat they dug out
and hauled away 122 dump
truck loads of rock and debris.
Then they hauled in many
loads of soil, building up the
level of the yard space. How
ever, after they found that soil
was unsatisfactory, they
hauled much of it away and
worked over the space lower
ing it to the level of the new
cement patio they put in place
of the original wooden deck at
the back of the house.
Because it was impossible to
move all the large imbedded,
hillside rock, they have
worked some of it into their
attractive plantings. At one
end of the yard is a large,
neat, storage shed and work
shop painted to match their
home. At the opposite side, in

Loree Hubbard
The lone Yard of the Month
award for April was presented
to Loree Hubbard by the lone
Garden Club.
Mrs. Hubbard has an out
standing yard in the spring,
starting with early crocus,
then many colored hyacinths,
dafodilsand tulips, said a club
spokesperson. She also has a
red flowering crab apple tree.
Her yard is always neat and
attractive and has something
blooming most of the year, the
spokesperson said. Simplicity
makes for an attractive yard
as demonstrated here, she
added.
Mrs. Hubbard and her hus
band, the late Van Hubbard
and their son. Bob. moved to
lone in 1966 when they sold
their ranch on Eightmile.
They bought the old Minnie
Forbes house on the corner of
Main and "C" Streets. Bob
keeps the lawn mowed and
does the weeding to help his
mother. Edith Nichoson, also
of lone, told Mrs. Hubbard
that the Los Angeles rose on .
the corner that blooms so
beautifully each year must be
at least 60 years old because
she remembers when it was
planted.
Heppner, Oregon, Thursday. April 21,
Paustian
an elevated area above cir
cular w ooden steps, is a space
for their annual vegetable
garden. All around the lawn
space they have a wonderful
assortment of flowers which
keep blooming from the early
spring crocus through the late
fall chrysanthemums. There
is a bird bath and an interes
ting multi-level fountain in the
yard, too
Jan treasures some inheri
ted plants from her mother
and some from her grandmo
ther The large cluster of
bleeding hearts at the south
side of the house is now
performing for its third and
fourth generation.
A nephew. Cord Adams, w ho
came from Goldendale, Wash,
now shares the Paustian's
home. He is a junior at Hep
pner High School this year.
Inside the spacious home.
Jan"s collection of beautiful
houseplants vie with her love
ly oil paintings for visitors'
attention.
Asked about her favorite
flowers, she quickly replied
"crocus" and then added. "I
love roses and peonies, too
and. well, most flowers." Her
favorite trees are maple,
spruce and sumac.
Unfortunately, because of
vandalism last year, the gar
den club no longer has a
marker to put in front of the
winning yard; however, a
special certificate was pre
sented to the Paustians at the
Chamber of Commerce lun
cheon on Tuesday. April 19,
when they were invited as
guests of honor.

Mrs. Hubbard has been an
active member of the lone

Publicity Chairman
The Beef Industry Council
publishes many different ar
ticles and brochures about
beef and by-products. I have
found a wealth of information.
The CowBelles would be hap
pv to sneak to any group or
class about beef. We try to
stick to the facts and have
manv sources to draw our
information.
This is the last item on
pharmaceuticals how they're
used and where they come
from
Nervous System
Cholesterol comes from the
spinal cord It is essential in
the synthesis of male sex
hormones which are used
when natural development of
male characteristics does not
occur. These hormones are
also used to treat menopausal
syndromes and to prevent
swelling of breasts and milk
production when a mother
does not nurse a newborn
hahv.
Thyroid Gland
Thvroid extract plays a
maior role in the treatment of
cretinism (a congenital ab
sense of thyroid hormone en
countered mainly in infants
and children which often re
sults in physical deformities,
dwarfism, or idiocy). Life long
treatment frequently enables
those suffering from this con
dition to show improvement
which permits them to lead
much more normal lives.
NOTE : In the case of many
pharmaceuticals, it has be
come less expensive to syn
thesize the product than to
refine it from animal sources.
However, in some cases (as
with male sex hormones)
another animal by-product is
used in the process. In many
areas, svnthesis has been only
partial and animal sources
remain extremely important.
Such is the case with protein
drugs (insulin, parathyroid
hormones and pituitary hor
mones) which are so complex
that chemists shudder at the
problems of attempting a
svnthesis.
The long list of cattle by
products and the derivatives
from them is by no means
complete. In fact, new uses
are discovered almost daily.
But I hope "Beef Tidbits" will
demonstrate that the cattle
industry makes many major
contributions to the quality of
American life in addition to
the contribution that beef
makes to the quality of the
American diet.
While the value of beef
by-products cannot be ade
quately measured in money,
the very real monetary value
of the good things that come
from cattle besides beef helps
keep the price of beef on the
table well below what it might
otherwise be.
