if Moror , Gilliam Water Supply Adequate Hermiston (IP! Farmers irrigating land in Umatilla, RIoro and Gilliam counties can count on adequate water supplies this summer, accord ing to reports issued at the annual water forecast meeting here. Manes Barton, water supply forecaster for the Soil Con servation Service and Oregon State College agricultural 'ex periment station, said March weather brought excellent in creases in snow at middle and high elevations in the area and that water content of the snow on watersheds in the three counties now measures 108 per cent of average. Excellent Runoff Watersheds at lower eleva tions in the counties are still without snow, he said, which means the flow of smaller streams may fall off "a little earlier than usual" unless summer rains are heavy. Measurements at four elec tronic soil moisture stations high in the watersheds indi cate the soil under the snow packs is wet below the four foot level. Barton said this should favor an excellent run off of water as the snow melts. Reservoirs in the are are also in "good shape,' 'he said. Cold Springs reservoir is full and McKay reservoir holds more water now than is normal for this time of year, he added. Bill B i e r m a n, Umatilla couty extension agent, em phasized that although there will be average amounts of water for irrigation this sea ' son farmers should use water as efficiently as possible to 'make better use of fertilizers applied." Small Craft Has Varied Lines A small rowboat for cartop transportation, a dinghy, for use as a tender for a larger boat or a safe skiff for the youngsters in the family all these are available in the 1958 lines of small craft offered by boat builders. These small boats will be found in varying designs and materials to suit almost .any need. There are aluminum prams, molded plywood dinghies, planked skiffs and fiber glass boats for rowing or small outboard motors, as well as inboard-powered wa- ter scooters by English, . Ital ian and American builders. The popular fiber glass re inforced plastic Dyeresin dinghies make excellent tend ers for cruising sail and motor boats or rigged with small lugsails make smart little sail ers, called dhows by the War ren, R.I. builder. Duratech M a n u f acturing Company of Peekskill, N.Y., turns out a line of aluminum prams ideal for cartop trans portation, as well as its out board runabout line. These small craft perform well with the smallest outboard motors and respond easily to a pull on the oars. A new company, Norwe gian Moulded Shapes, Inc., of Rockport, Me., is offering molded mahogany boats in cluding a 10-foot rowing dinghy and a 16-foot canoe. The Allcock Manufacturing Co., of Ossinning, N.Y., manu facturer of ' "Havaheart hu mane animal traps," is featur ing two old time Adriondack guide boats in modern fiber glass construction to interest fresh water fishermen. Oregon State Hires Dairy School Head Corvallis (IP) Dr. James C. Miller, present dean of the school of agriculture at Texas A&M has been named as the new head of the dairy and an imal husbandry department at Oregon State college. Dr. A. L.

Artificial Respiration By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York W Artificial respiration as it is now taught to and practiced by laymen can't save lives in the ma jority of cases, and should be replaced at once by a method which will work. Airway Not Open These were the conclusions of three scientists after exten sive experiments involving 25 unconscious persons and the efforts of 167 untrained per sons to revive them. They re ported their findings in the New England Journal of Medicine. m Willow Clothes Basket 88' No snag, 1 8 Reg. 1.35 WCoupon .. dia. C1730 Car Clothes Hanger 66': Full width, any car. Reg. 95c.

"Under field conditions," the scientists found, they don't work in most cases because the airway of the unconscious person is not kept open. Oldest Method The method which will work is the mouth-to-mouth way.

The scientists assumed it isn't used because of a res cuer's "hesitancy to touch with his mouth the mouth of a moribund (dying) pa tient." To overcome that objection, the scientists devised a com bined metal airway and mouthpiece which can be car ried about in the pocket. The airway end is inserted into the unconscious person's throat, which leaves the High Qualify Plus Low Prices Equal Your Top "Rocket" Wagon Regular 7.45 595 A smooth roller with life-time, bearings.
