MESSAGE TO E VE R Y ¿tCEMBER. ... - : ❖ ♦ *> ♦ R.E.A. HIG HLIG HTS* ♦ ------ * BY R. L. WOOLLEY Everyone is so busy with his indi vidual duties that we have scarcely learned anything in the way of news among the members. No one is seem ingly having any serious difficulties except those who are waiting for ser vice connections. Just as rapidly as the nature of the maintenance and construction work will permit, new services will be made. Be sure and tell each of your neighbors who are expecting to receive service that, if they have not already done so, that it is necessary to make the proper ar rangements with the office in Herm iston before service will be given. Meter cards are now coming out, so be sure and return yours prompt ly in order that full cooperation among the members may be realized. REA has just sent us copies of a booklet called “A Guide for Mem bers of Cooperatives”, and we are planning to send a copy to each mem ber. You will be interested in the explanations and answers to quest ions regarding your cooperative which it gives. Keep it and refer to it when necessary. You will note particularly on page 27 of this booklet a question on the Bylaws of the cooperative. We are also sending to you a copy of the By laws of your cooperative. Please read them and then keep them for refer ence. Many of the answers to your questions are in this little volume. It is important to note the provision for the annual meeting of the members and the manner of election of mem bers of the board. Find out what district you are in and then see to it that you have a good candidate sel ected to represent your district as a member of the board of directors. This booklet on Bylaws tells you how. • asm* —- --■ — CANNING SCHEDULE From July 22 to 27 N O T IC E ! 8 to 11 a.m. 12 to 3:30 p.m. Mon.—Fruit-Berries Beans Tues.—Tomatoes Corn Wed.—Fruit & Berries Beans Thurs.—Tomatoes Corn Fri.—Fruit & Berries Beans Sat.—Tomatoes Corn Other products canned by special arrangement.

Jackson. deals with drying fruits and vege tables, another with curing, and one with miscellaneous methods, such as storing vegetables. A handy tabulat ed list gives a quick reference table for canning vegetables, fruit, meats, poultry and fish. “The preservation of surplus pro ducts at home for family use or ex change makes possible a variety in diet and reduces the cost of living for many families,” Miss Case points out. “By the use of home grown garden vegetables during many months of the year, and an adequate supply of preserved foods for other seasons of the year, it is possible for the average family to be supplied adequately with vitamins and other essential food elements with a mini mum outlay of cash.” The new edition, Extension Bulle tin No. 542, may be had from any county extension office, or direct from the college. Creamery Directors Attend Meetings M. G. Hedwall, Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Heyden, Nels Christensen and A. E. McFarland left Wednesday for Eu gene where they will attend a confer ence of the Challenge Interstate Creamery association. The sessions convene Thursday, Friday and Satur day. CROP PROSPECTS INDICATE OUTPUT NEAR 1939 LEVEL Favorable growing conditions dur ing April, May and into June have boosted prospective gross crop pro duction in the United States close to the 1939 level, despite slightly small er acreage, according to the monthly review of the agricultural situation and outlook just released by the Ore gon agricultural extension service. Feed crop and pasture conditions ap pear very favorable, indicating an abundance of feed for livestock, ex cept in local areas. Wheat prospects have improved materially with production now ex pected to be near the ten-year aver age in the United States, although world wheat prospects are less fav orable than in 1939, especially in Europe. Prospects for feed grains and hay crops are above average, and pastures are generally .good throughout the country. On the whole, conditions early in the season indicate that the supply of fruit, other than citrus, will be near average in 1940-41, but smaller than the relatively large supply of 1939-40. The new citrus fruit crop promises to be large and above last year. The sweet cherry crop is expected to fall considerably below 1939 and Bartlett pears somewhat less than last year. Both crops are not as good in California as a year ago. The apricot crop is very small in Califor nia, but a slight increase in dried prunes is expected in that state. Early season prospects for late pears and apples are fairly favorable gen erally and the sour cherry crop is larger than last year owing princi pally to increases in Michigan and in Wisconsin. Nut crop prospects are not as favorable as last year, accord ing to information in the report. With respect to the general level of farm prices the data show an in crease of nearly 10 per cent com pared with the general level of prices a year ago. War has been declared on the wild horses that infest the cattle ranges of British Columbia's Cariboo dis trict along the course of the Fraser river. Because the wild steeds graze on valuable pasture land the govern ment and ranchers have sworn to slaughter them to the last stallion. Again, after 15 years of desultory skirmishing with the wild horse, In dian and white man alike are oiling their repeater rifles in preparation for the big drive. “Kill the wild horsel” is the slo gan of the posters tacked to hitch ing posts and pasted to gas pumps from Lone Butte to Red Rock. In the past 12 years more than 10,000 wild steeds have been slain in the vast ranges of the Cariboo, chiefly in the land west of the Fra ser river. The last great roundup was in 1925. The animals were driven into corrals and offered for sale at $5 a head. The leftovers—thousands of them—were shot. At the same time the government posted a boun ty of $2.50 for a pair of horse ears and a scalp. The bounty system has lapsed, and the only inducement to profes sional horse hunters has been the cent-a-pound offered by dog-food can- ners and fox ranchers. Under the existing method of grazing control any rancher who wants to dispose of horses at large contrary to the range law can get a permit from the forestry depart ment of the provincial government for $2.50 that entitles him to assem ble all the horses he finds on a cer tain section of the range. The owner of a horse carrying a registered brand may, on payment of $2.50 to the rounder, redeem his horse. If the owner fails to buy back his animal, it will share the same fate as the rest. But now the roundup is to go for ward relentlessly. Where droves of horses cannot be corralled, they will be shot by the rounder as he fires from his saddle, whether the target's brand is visible or not. ‘Boot Stew’ and Lizard Keep Lost Hunter Alive Bargains • 37 36 36 32 38 37 36 34 31 36 37 36 36 35 Chevrolet Sedan Chevrolet Coupe Chevrolet Sedan Chevrolet Coach Chevrolet Pickup International Pickup Ford Coupe Ford Convert.
