James Valentine
Valby Lutheran
The Seder Feast will be
celebrated at Valby Lutheran Church
in lone on Thursday, April 12, at
6:30 p.m.
Those who wish to take part in
this celebration are asked to call
Sarah Carlson, 422-7245, to reserve
space at a table.
More than 3000 years ago, the
people o f Israel fled Egypt. This
event is remembered as the Passover
o f which the Seder Feast is a part
of. This is not only a way to to teach
the story o f the Exodus and
rem em brance o f this time, but a
delicious way as well.
The Seder Feast allows the
participants to experience the
hardships o f the people o f Israel
and liberation through a 15-step
meal. A script called the "Hagadah"
is used to guide the participants
through the 10 plagues and eventual
liberation and escape from Egypt.
The items on the Seder plate
provoke questions from children
that com m and answers from the
adults. In this way, the traditions
o f the Seder and history o f the
Passover are passed from one
generation to the next. The script
makes use o f the most patriarchal
person present at the table as a
"leader", and has a supnse in store
for even the youngest child at the
table, said a new s release.
For the Christian, the Seder Feast
and celebration o f Passover has
special significance. It was on the
night o f the Seder Feast, that Jesus
Christ was betrayed and arrested.
Jesus ate the Seder meal with his
disciples in the upper room before
his arrest. It was at this meal, that
Jesus revealed the identity o f his
betrayer and imminent death to his
disciples. It was after the Seder
meal, that Jesus taught his disciples
communion as a way to remember
Him and his ultimate sacrifice for
us.
Crane fly
larvae found in
Morrow County
From the Ag News
Loren Unruh and Chris Rauch
recently discovered some funny
looking worms in an annual crop,
no till wheat field (previously
enrolled in the CRP) located about
10 miles north o f Lexington. These
worms were sent to the Hermiston
Agricultural Research Center and
to Corvallis for identification. The
worms were identified as the larval
stage o f the European Crane Fly.
Unruh and Rauch found about
12 o f these "worms" in a three-foot-
square area. Additional scouting
efforts were conducted at eight
different locations in an adjacent
field. One worm was found in a
one-foot-square area at three o f the
eight sam pling locations.
These insects are usually found
in turfgrass west o f the Cascades.
They like damp environments. There
are, however, grassland species and
some can even be found in deserts.
They feed on decomposing
vegetation. Some species feed on
roots. A publication from WSU
( h ttp ://w h a tc o m .w s u .e d u /a g /
h o m e h o rt/p e s t/c ra n e fly .h tm )
indicates lawns can withstand a large
population o f crane flies and that
treatments have traditionally been
recom m ended when populations
equal 25 to 50 larvae/ft2.
Can the Crane Fly do damage
to wheat or barley? We don't know
at this point. Hopefully we will learn
more in the near future.
The larvae o f Crane Flies look
like gray or grayish-white worms
that are about an inch long. Some
may be longer. Adults are reddish-
brown flies that look like a giant
mosquito.

Bill would benefit local business
Representative Greg Smith (R
Heppner) testified recently on behall
o f House Bill 2842 that he
introduced at the request o f Phil
Carlson, co-owner o f Treo Ranches,
Inc., Heppner, who initiated the bill.
Smith told the G azette-Tim es
that the bill would ease regulations
on hunting preserves. It would allow
the preserve operator to package
the bird, accom panied by a
tranm ission slip, previously, the
head had to be left on the bird; the
birds would also not be required
to have a clipped foot; and preserves
would no longer be required to use
a special tag, which was expensive,
but could rather use a regular
poultry tags.
Other changes in the bill would
give hunting preserve owners notice
o f state inspections and would also
give them a period o f time in which
to make corrections. Previously,
said Smith, the state could come
in without notice and could shut
the preserve down on the first notice.
Smith says he is not only pleased
with the unanimous passage o f the
bill but also with the initiative taken
by Carlson. "The reason folks send
me here is to represent them and
their needs. M y jo b is only made
better when good citizens like Mr.
Carlson voice their needs," Smith
said.
According to Smith, Carlson is
satisfied with the passage o f his bill
out o f com m ittee and is looking
forward to its passage on the House
and Senate Floor in the next few
months. "Rep. Smith sure stepped
up and delivered for our
agriculturally based small business,"
Carlson commented. "Without his
assistance, we would have continued
to be over-regulated by the State
o f Oregon."
Smith represents Baker, Crook,
Grant, Gilliam, Sherman, Walker,
and portions o f Morrow and Wasco
counties.
