SIX- Heppner Gazette-Times. Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, July 15, 1992 500 acres of wheat burn The home of Ralph and Anne Morter, about 11 miles north of lone, barely escaped destruction in a wheat fire which broke out around 2:30 p.m. Monday, July 13. Anne Morter said that the fire burned within a cars width of 4-H News Kitchen Krew By M indy Q ualls and Lori M oeller, reporters The Kitchen Krew meeting was held on July 1 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Members made Northern Chinese potstickers, chilled raspberry cooler (berry soup) and carrot/pineapple cake. Members ate the potstickers and berry soup for lunch. There were a few extra potstickers to take home to parents and each member took home a frosted car rot cake. After that they worked on their 4-H notes and cleaned up the mess they had made. Mindy Qualls and Lori Moeller had a meeting on July 8 from 10 a m. to 2 p.m. They made bean soup with 15 different kinds of beans and lentils, potato salad, m acaroni salad, frozen strawberry yogurt and lemonade. They learned to put a little but ter in the water to help prevent the water from boiling over when cooking pasta. Members tasted all these foods for lunch. After they helped clean up, they worked on their 4-H records and talked about fair projects. They took the lefover foods home to share with their families. Chamber Chatter By Claudia Hughes. Chamber Manager their home and trees overhanging the house also caught fire. The Morters didn’t lose much wheat, however. "Most of what burned was grass,” she said. She said that the fire burned their wood pile and also burned under a tractor and field sprayer, but the most damage to their place may be the blowing dust created by lack of stubble. The M o rters’ neighbors, George and Nancy M iller, however, lost 500-plus acres of wheat. The Miller place is around 13 miles north of lone right along the Bombing Range Road. Nan cy Miller said that the fire was caused by a hydraulic brake on a combine on their ranch. Winds fanned the flames and caused the fire to bum down a fence row bet ween summer fallow to the next field, said Miller. “ We were very fortunate that nobody was hurt,” she added. Miller credits friends and neighbors, the Morrow County Grain Growers and the lone Rural Fire District for stop ping the fire. ‘It could have burn ed clear to Butter Creek,” she said.
