• 4-H Club Members Show
What They’ve Learned
There were 12 4-H club mem
bers and 10 4-H leaders present
at the leadership training class
given in the Extension Office last
Monday. Parker Lester, Exten
sion Service agent, and Marilyn
Johnson, home demonstration
leader, conducted the three-hour
training session.
Mr. Lester opened the lesson
with a discussion of potato grow
ing.
Leaders then were given sug
gestions on how to conduct a
club meeting. Folders with help
ful ideas for club entertainment
were distributed to those pres
ent.
^he 4-H club members then
took over the training session,
showing club work in a series of
demonstrations. These club mem
bers were present to show an as
signed phase of 4-H work:
Carol Beyer and Barbara Car
ter, who showed how to make
baking powder biscuits.
Beverly Warnica, who demon
strated how to set in a sleeve.
Donald Dinkel, who discussed
the selection of eggs, both for
market and for hatching pur
poses.
Wanda Bell, who gave a short
demonstration on what to do and
what not to do while baking.
Neola Sandvik, whose demon
stration was the most popular
one of the afternoon —
showed how to bake cookies and
then gave each person in the
audience a sample of her baking.
Mark Sandvik, the baby of
the group, who showed how to
weed and discussed the reason
for weeding while the weed
plants are small.
Tim Miller, who showed how
to transplant. Tim forgot his
plant, so he was forced to trans
plant a weed for his demonstra
tion.
Frank Sambo, who discussed
reasons for garden cultivation
and how often it should be done.
Questions were asked and con
structive criticism was offered
at the conclusion of each indi
vidual demonstration.
Miss Johnson concluded the
afternoon with a demonstration
of her own, in which she dis
cussed vitamins and food values.
She displayed a chart showing
the relative food values of a
glass of milk and a soft drink.

Spring Floods May Have
Ruined 1952 Salmon Run
The late spring floods in Brit
ish Columbia, Washington and
Oregon may well be the cause of
a salmon shortage in 1952, ac
cording to the British Columbia
Fisheries Department. Authori
ties say the sockeye salmon
spawning beds may have been
ruined by the flooding waters
before last year’s eggs were
hatched. There will be no way
of knowing what affect the
floods had on the sockeye run,
until time for this year’s hatch
ing to return in 1952.
