Trick or Treat to Help Kidney Patients
OrI«l%K1hd.n.ey.in<n.m*ein.bf
Oregon has announced the
opening of its 1977 statewide
sale of Halloween "Trick or
Treat" candy to help finance
the coat of providing artificial
kidney machines, training
and medical supplies for
Oregonians suffering from
Kidney failure.
At the same time, KAO
issued an appeal to indivi­
duals, civic groups, schools,
veterans, fraternal, busi-
churcheg' *outh -nd
men and
to
men
and womerfi
womerfs clubs
clubs to
come to its aid by helping to
sell the Halloween candy
during the annual fund-rais­
ing event.
Chuck Foster, KAO execu­
tive director, said, "a num­
ber of organizations and com­
munity groups around the
state have already placed
orders for the candy, but in
order to raise as much money
as possible for our patiei

hope that through this
Halloween candy aale we can
obtain the money to provide
aeveral artificial kidney ma­

The Halloween packages
contain 20 Sherbits candy

Association label on the box
identifies the product. Each
box of candy sells for $2.00. If
possible, people are asked to
order in units of complete
cases in order to facilitate
handling.
"Most families.” said Foa-
ter, "will buy a supply of
Halloween candy for 'Trick or
Treat’ goblins anyway. We
would appreciate people buy­
ing their candy for KAO and
thereby helping to save
lives.”
Individuals and organiza­
tions who want to help KAO
are asked to send orders for
candy to the Kidney Asso­

Host
Families
Needed
Pollutants
Below Federal
Requirements
Host families are needed
for young people from
Mexico (11 to 16 years of age)
who are participating in the
exchange program, “Inter-
cambio” or International
Student Exchange Program.
The students live with an
American family practicing
English and learning our way
of life and culture. The El
Salvadorians arrive Novem­
ber 17 and return home
January 20. From Nicaragua
and Costa Rica the students
arrive December 1 and return
home February 10.
Intercambio, an interna­
tional cultural exchange pro­
gram, aims to provide young
people an opportunity to
understand one anotiter's
cultures. Founded in Mexico
(1959) by Rt. Rev. Placid
Reitmeier, an American Be­
nedictine priest, it is legally
constituted with a lay board
of directors. Central office
personnel in Mexico City are
assisted by volunteer couples
•in Central America, Mexico,
Canada and the United States
who coordinate the wort
locally, interview families
and select students according
to age. sex and comparable
interests of host brothers and
sisters.
Students are sponsored by
their own families or civic
groups u> their own countries-

Estimated
maximum
ground-level concentrations
of pollutants from a coal-
fired power plant in southern
Idaho would be well below
federal and state air-quality
restrictions, ranging from
13% to less than 0.1% of the
toughest limits set to protect
human health and crops.
So says a preliminary
report prepared for Idaho
Power Company by the
environmental sciences divi­
sion of Stearns-Roger, Inc.,
Denver, and now on file with
the
Idaho Public Utilities
Commission.
The report, assuming a
500-megawatt, scrubber-
equipped plant with a 600-
foot stack and fired by
low-sulfur Wyoming coal,
makes these conclusions
about the plant's emissions
of the best-known pollut­
ants:
Sulfur-dioxide (SO2)-The
estimated maximum 24-hour
concentration would be 13.3
micrograms per cubic meter,
or only 13% of the toughest
standard of 100 micrograms.
Nitrogen oxides (NOX)--
The estimated annual con­
centration would be 0.8
micrograms per cubic meter,
or only 0.3% of the toughest
standard of 100 micrograms.
Particulates-The estima­
ted maximum 24-hour con­
centration would be 1.4 mic-
□¡rams per cubic meter, or
y 5% of the toughest
standard of 30 micrograms.
Fluorides-The estimated
maximum monthly concen­
tration would be 0.006 micro­
grams per cubic meter, or
only 0.1% of the Idaho
standard of 5.8 micrograms.
The report said the plant’s
emissions of hydrocarbons,
carbon monoxide and photo­
chemical oxidants, whose pri­
mary measurable consitiuent
is ozone, would be "negli­
gible.”
Lower temperatures result­
ing from a scrubber would
condense such trace ele­
ments as mercury, arsenic,
lead and cadmium, with their
particles or droplets also
being collected in the precipi­
tator.
Dr. . Louis York, Stearns-
Roger chief environmental
scientist, said in comment­
ing on the report that ground­
level concentrations are the
"only relevant data” that
should be used in evaluating
the risk to humans, animals
and vegetation from coal-
fired plant emissions. ____
"It’s at ground level that
people breathe and animals
and vegetation are located--
not in the upper atmosphere
where gases from a plant’s
tall stack are diffused and
dispersed as they mix into
millions of tons of air."
The 63-page report is
based on data from the
National Weather Service
and U.S. Air Force weather
stations and from sophisti­
cated Instruments on meteor­
ological towers at each of the
three sites-American Falls,
Bliss and Sid's Croesing-
Idaho Power has suggested
for possible location of a coal-
fired plant.
Stearns-Roger computed
the ground-level concentra­
tion estimates from the data
with disperaion modeling
methods develooed bv the
Federal Environmental Pro­
tection Agency.
York, who recently dis­
cussed the proposed plant’s
environmental impact at pub­
lic meetings in Gooding, Sho­
shone and American Falla,
described the report as "part
of a package" of information
intended to help the PUC
determine a plant site.
He said Stearns-Roger is
preparing several other re­
ports, including one on water
chemistry and another on
vegetation and animals in the
three potential site areas.

Oregon Trail Grange
Oregon Trail Grange mem­
bers met in regular session
Thursday evening, Septem­
ber 15, with Master Harold
Kurtz presiding.
Don Somers reported for
the Agriculture Chairman
and called attention to
articles in the Gate City
Journal about the sale of
wheat and corn to the Soviet
Union and to the Peoples
Republic of China as the
world’s largest wheat buyers.
Grange Master Kurtz led a
discussion about the law con­
cerning the 160-acre per
person limit on land served
by government water supply.
Frank Sherwood and Loyd
Adams gave some interesting
1928 history of the Owyhee
Ditch Company. Sherwood
served as a member of the
Board of Directors for the
Ditch Company for over 30
years.
CWA chairman Lois Boe-
nig reminded Grange women
that the first Club meeting of
the year will be held
Tuesday, October 4. at 2 p.m.
at the home of Thelma Parr
with Orma Cleaver as co­
hostess. All Grange women
are urged to attend.
Refreshments were served
by Marguerite King and
Marguerite Moss. The next
regular Grange meeting will
be held Thursday evening
October 6, 8:30 p.m.

After a short business

A harvest of wormy apples
and pears awaits home
gardeners who fail to spray
their fruit trees repeatedly to
control the codling moth.
The adult moth has a wing-
spread of about •/« inch. Its
front wings are brownish
gray with a bronze band at
the tip, according to Duane
Hatch, Oregon State Univer­
sity Extension home garden­
ing coordinator.
Except on the Oregon
coast, where the weather is
too cool, the codling moth is
now laying eggs on the leaves
and young fruit of apple and
pear trees. When the eggs
hatch, the white to pink
larvae enter the fruit.
A spray of diazinon or
sevin, used according to label
directions, should be re­
peated every two to three
weeks to destroy the moth
and the larvae. Observe the
recommended interval on the
label for the last spraying
before harvest. Hatch ad­
vises.
There is no need to worry
about the early blossoms that
emerge on cucumbers, and
squash and then fall off
before setting any fruit.
"Cucumbers and squash
often have an abundance of
male flowers that bloom and
die before the female
blossoms appear." says Du­
ane Hatch, Oregon State
University Extension home
gardening coordinator.
Female
blossoms
with
small cucumbers or squash at
their bases will appear later
and fruit production will
proceed normally.
Sometimes female blos­
soms on squash will bloom
before the male flowers. The
early female flowers will dry
up. or produce small fruits
that die and then rot.
This is a natural, self-prun­
ing process, it will allow for
better fruit development later
Hatch notes.
If the female blossoms fade
away at the height of the
growing season, however, it
is likely that bee activity is
not sufficient to pollenize
them.
"Inadequate pollenization
ia often a problem in the
central areas of large cities,”
says Hatch.
Apartment dwellers grow­
ing container gardens are
advised to do what they can
to encourage bee activity.
This includes careful use of
insecticides, especially sevin.
which is highly toxic to bees.
Activities In Arcadie
Capitol Guides report a
total of 43,143 visitors during
the first six months of the
year--a figure nearly equal-
ling
the record 43,463
visitors during the same
period in 1971. That session
often is described as the one
during which the people
discovered the Legislature.
The telephone callers tak­
ing advantage of the Legis­
lative Information Service
exceeded 50,000 - jamming
lines with as many as 592
calls on the busiest day and
exceeding 500 calls for days
on end as the session neared
adjournment.
The weight of such scrut­
iny can’t help but attract
attention among politicians
whose tenure depends upon
the electorate’s will every
two or four years.
So although the 1977
Legislature succeeded
in
shrugging off early com-
plaints about expanded space
in the Capitol wings, colorful
furnishings and modernistic
art objects--other criticism
likely will provoke introspec­
tive study in the months
ahead.
Some members already
sense a mood among the
people about government
that seems to reflect a
growing attitude that more
isn’t necessarily better.
