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.

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.”

tin No. 542, may be had from any
county extension office, or direct
from the college.

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.
