Organizing a 4-H horticultu ral club is easy. Campbell savs. All if takes is five to 10 voune people in grades four through 12. plus an adult volunteer who is willing to work with the youngsters to teach them how plants grow. A 4-H gardening club can be general or specialized, depen ding upon the interests of the voung people and the leader. A general club may find 4 H ers growing flowers and vegetables while also tending Koucpntnntc Some 4 H g3rdcn clubs specialize in container gardening or growing vege tables. The goal of each 4-H club, however, is to help young people learn how plants grow and the elements necessary to achieve a successful garden, said Campbell. Many 4 H gardening clubs introduce young people to career possibilities ranging from making fresh or dried arrangements to marketing what is grown. Because advanced planning is necessary to any successful gardening effort, now is a good time to organize a 4-H horticultural club. It's a good time to introduce voung people to the idea of planning a garden plot, to demonstdrate how seeds germinate, and to discuss why some plants are more suited for our climate than others, the 4-H extension agent says. To help the volunteer leader, an outline of "16 Steps for a Successful Club" is available from the extension office as well as other mate rials designed to help the 4-H leader do his or her job. More information about 4-H horticultural projects is avail able from the extension office in Heppner.

Jflp Heppner Auto Parts Extension specialist gives advice to farmers' wives By BOB COSTA OSl! Extension Agent Morrow County Women getting out of the home and into the work force has been a big issue the past several years, but it's nothing new in agriculture. Farmers' and ranchers wives have always taken a large part in helping run the farm. "Because of the large role thev have, women on the farm should consider ways in which they can make themselves more effective in their work." says Marcelle Straatman. Oregon State University Ex tension Service human development specialistd. One way to improve know ledge and performance is through attendance of work shops and seminars for far mers and ranchers that are porvided locally by the OSU Extension Service, or com modity organizations. "Whether you are driving a tractor, marketing farm pro duce or raising the family on a farm, taking advantage of local educational opportuni ties will help you do a better job," Straatman notes. In the past, many women have neglected attending local meetings and workshops dea ling with the business and operations side of running a farm because they perhaps felt out of place. This should no longer be the case. The education available at these meetings is for the benefit of all who are engaged in day to dav farm operations.

More than three-fourths of the women reported book keeping as a regular or occa sional task. fieldwork. Findings from a study of Wisconsin surveys indicated more wives were doing fieldwork in 1979 than in 1962. In the national survey, 20 percent reported plowing, disking, cultivating or plan ting as a regular or occasional task. care of animals. A 1981 Florida study showed more women than men were caring for animals. In the 1980 sur vey, two-thirds of the farm women reported this as a regular or occasional task. direct marketing. One third of women in the national survey reported that they marketed their farm pro ducts. According to survey data, farm men often are unaware of how much women are in volved in tractor and me chanical operation. This lack of awareness could result in physical injury to the woman or damage to the machinery if she has not been properly instructed in its operation. The farm woman's expan ded role demands more edu cation. Straatman says. The benefits from this education could be a better farm life and a more effective contribution to the farm operation.

Patrick G. Mickey, assistant vice president of external affairs, noted that the U.S. Senate is scheduled to consi der such a bill. S. 1660 would delay for at least two years a Federal Communications Commission plan to phase out the subsidy that long distance customers pay to hold down the cost of local telephone service. "Continuation of the subsidy would encourage more and more big users to set up their own systems and bypass the existing telephone network, Mickey said "That would leave fewer ratepayers to bear the fixed costs of the network . "The result." he went on, "would he higher bills for those who are not in a position to bypass the present system, principally residential and small business customers." Mickey said the Senate bill and one already passed bv the House of Representatives H R. 4102) almost certainly would cost consumers and small businesses far more than the bills would save these groups by blocking the charges in the F C C, plan. The F C C. plan now sche duled to take effect on April 3. would add "access charges" to local telephone bills to replace the local-service sub sidy now paid bv long distance users The access charge for a residential telephone would starat at $2 a month and increase gradually over a period of several years. Busi ness would pay $6 per line per month initially.

AT&T Communications will continue to pay for access to local telephone systems, Hickev pointed out. In fact, the long distance organization estimates that some 70 per cent of its total 1964 revenues will be paid to local telephone companies in the form of access charges and fees for billing services, he said "Unfortunately, there is a lot of confusion regarding the access charges to be paid by consumers." Mickey said "Many people have been given the idea that they are going to be charged for access to long distance, even though thev mav not make any long distance calls. But the pro posed charge is really for access to the hx nl telephone svstem that serves your home or business "The only real connection between the access charge and long distance." he ex plained." is that the charge represents a cost shift from long distance, where present rates more than cover the cost of service, to local service, where rates are insufficient to cover eisU " Hickev noted that the cost of providing telephone service averages alxiul $?f, per sub srrilwr per month, well above ihe typical basic charge for residential service There is no real basis for fears that local rates which cover local service costs will put telephones out of reach for nianv people and thus destroy universal telephone service, Hickev said The Wharton studv indicates that the Envelopes T X: . i t .

The real lineal is from bypassing, he said.
