Crouch is the executive vice president of the association, which is headquartered in St. Joseph, Missouri. The Pathfinder Program identifies superior Angus cows based upon recorded performance traits that are economically important to efficient beef production. These traits include early and regular calving and heavy weaning weights, reports Bill Bowman, association director of performance programs. All registered Angus cows that meet the strict Pathfinder standards are listed, along with their owners, in the Pathfinder Report that is published annually by the American Angus Association. The 2002 Pathfinder Report lists 8,145 individual cows. It is published in the April issue of the Angus Journal and limited copies are available from the association. The report also appears on the association’s website at www.angus.org. The largest number of Pathfinder cows from a single herd this year is 74.

She noted the complexity of the project, the impacts on other counties, and the issue of state rules. Upon her recommendation and the approval of County Counsel Bill Hanlon, the Court approved an agreement with the Port of Morrow on a contract with the engineering company, setting a funding limit and noting refinements to the scope of work. Heppner City Manager Jerry Breazeale and David VanDerlip spoke to the Court about a new round o f the State Housing Rehabilitation Program funding available for low income housing im provem ents, B reazeale reported that the funding was used locally in 1996 and that ten homeow ners remain on a waiting list for funding, 30 or 40 percent of whom would probably qualify for the program. Changes in the program include a raise in the minimum household income allowed and the need for the community to join or form a regional loan fund. The commissioners learned the details of the program, what the county’s role would be, and information about V anD erlip's com pany, which is offering to administer the program Breazeale pointed out that all county communities are considered distressed and that this And Ag Cquipmcnt C/hi&it OPEN TUESDAY through FRIDAY from 1-5 p.m . and SATURDAY from 11 a.m .-3 p.m. CLOSED SUNDAY and MONDAY The Oregon Wheat Commission has appointed Tana Rosebrook to serve as its administrator.

With the recent years of drought and the tough economic conditions, we wanted to make sure we were doing what was best for the producers o f our state. Tana has an extremely thorough understanding o f the economic conditions of this state as well as an in depth knowledge of the program s and interworkings of this organization. She has done a great job as acting adm inistrator and we look forward to working with her in this new role. “ Rosebrook will work to enhance cooperative programs in the Pacific Northwest involving producers, the trade organizations and num erous agencies concerned with research, grain quality and market development.
