A meager snowpack that all but vanished in the wake of May's rains is part of the reason Baker City residents might be required to reduce their water use before the end of the summer.

Those May rains weren't as beneficial for the city's watershed as one might expect.

DroughtfoilsEagleCanWilderness fire nolicV • With the fire danger high, Forest Service managers decidedtofight,rather than monitor, a blaze in the wilderness

By Jayson Jacoby llacoby©bakercityherald.com

The early onset of severe fire danger has convinced U.S. Forest Service fire managers to try to douse, rather than merely monitor, a lightning-sparked blaze in the Eagle Cap Wilderness.

But the risk that the Dennis Creek fire, near the Minam River about 15 miles east of Union, would grow rapidly if left to its own devices isn't the only reason officials have treated this blaze differently compared with a few dozen fires that lightning ignited in the Eagle Cap over the previous 20 or so years.

Christensen says he is a Publishers Clearing House customer and occasionally purchases miniature cars kom the firm. And he's enteredthe contestregularly for the past eight or nine years, he said.

Newman urged residents to use their common sense when considering whether the pitch they're hearing is a scam.

"If it's too good to be truethat's a possibility," Newman said.

Newman said Christensen's report is the first he's heard recently of a Publishers Clearing House scam.

LOCAL BRIEFING Prayer, worship conference this weekend

Diana Downing was the champion weight guesser.

We would like to sincerely thank Rob and Lori Thomas of Thomas Angus Ranch for hosting this event as well as all their help.

A special thanks to Kay Markgraf and Sue Danielson for all that they do for our club.

It was a successful event and we look forward to putting on another field day next year to continue helping our members grow and learn.

Continued from Page1A Folkestad pointed out that when the annual rallystarted severalyears ago,and for afew years thereafter, it took place during June, a much rainier month, on average, than July. ''When we used to have the rally in June, it rained, and we still did it," Folkestad said."Bikers don't worry about the weather. There's a saying that bikers have — I don't like to start outin the rain, but I don't mind getting caught in it."

And well they might this weekend.

The National Weather Service is forecasting a chance of showers and thunderstorms each day through Monday, with the best chance for rain Friday and Saturday.

Temperatures will drop as well, ranging from the upper70s tolow 80sforthenextseveral

Continued from Page1A District Attorney Matt Shirtcliff said the alleged sexual abuse did not take place in Baker County.

Rather than speak to police, Williams fled to the outbuilding where heretrieved a fi rearm and shot himself, Ash said.

That's a sharp contrast to the past two weeks, when the temperature at the Baker City Airport topped90 degreeson 12 straight days,a streak that likely will end today.

That's the longest stretch of consecutive 90-degree-plus days here since 2001.

HARVEY Continued from Page1A Harvey cited both the carbon fuels and gun background check bills as examples of a misguided ship of state, mainly because the Legislature is dominated by Democrats.

"I am saddened. We didn't need any restrictions on gun rights and carbon fuels," he said.

The list of faulty initiatives doesn't end there for Harvey.

Other programs that secured legislative approval also left a bitter political taste for the Baker County elected leader.

'Then they go and try to raise the minimum wage," he said.

help from members of the Northeast Oregon SWAT team.

Williams was found in the building with injuries "consistent with gunshot wounds" about 1 p.m., an OSP press release stated.

Ash said no law enforcement officer fired a shot during the incident. The Sheriff's Department and Oregon State Police conducted the death investigation.

The scene "was rendered safe" before the SWAT members arrived, Ash said.

That effort failed, however.

Minimum wage jobs, Harvey said, were never designedtoofferpeople entering the workforce a startingplace.

"It is an entry-level job only, to teach people how to work without busting the business," he said.

A minimum-wage increase, he said, would hurt rather than help business in Oregon, especially in the

Harvey said the lingering message remains one of caution and disappointment, especially regarding what occurs when one party holds power and uses it.

EDITORIAL

e ssar savin our wa er Baker City, in this year of severe drought, is fortunate compared with many towns in the West.

We have a watershed in the nearby Elkhorn Mountains that not only has reliably delivered copious amounts of water for more than a century, but has done so through the elegantly simple means of gravity.

But we're not immune to nature.

This past winter brought less snow than usual to the Elkhorns. And aker an abnormally dry spring, streams in the watershed are flowing at volumes more typical of late summer than early.

Considering the statistics, we understand why city oKcials last week asked residents to voluntarily conserve by watering their lawns and gardens from city-supplied taps no more oken than every other day (odd-numbered addresses water only on odd-numbered days, and vice versa).

(The request does not apply to water pumped from private wells.)

During the recent heat wave — the longest stretch of consecutive 90-degree-plus days since 2001 — we've been using more water than the watershed's streams and springs alone can supply.

That has forced the city to start tapping the well — replenished each year with water from the mountains — that is one of our supplementary sources.

The other such source is Goodrich Reservoir, at the base of Elkhorn Peak.

We agree with the city's decision to ask for the voluntary cutbacks only after reducing irrigation at

high-volume public sites such as Quail Ridge Golf Course, Mount Hope Cemetery, city parks and the Baker Sports Complex.

We encourage residents and businesses to not only comply with the odd/even irrigation schedule, but also to consider other ways to curb their water use, such as forgoing an occasional car wash.

That, aker all, is the one side of the water equation we can control — the demand side.

Both the well and Goodrich Reservoir are finite

supplies.

And it's unlikely that the streams and springs in the watershed will begin to produce more water until October, or even later depending on autumn weather.

That means we'll have to get by with the water we have.

If we don't heed the city's suggestions now, we might have to endure much more stringent, and punitive, water conservation measures later.

A city ordinance authorizes oKcials to ban the use of city water for irrigating lawns and washing cars, for instance, although under that ordinance irrigation with city water would also cease at the golf course, parks and the cemetery.

People who violated that ordinance could be fined up to $500 for each day the violation occurs.

If everyone uses water responsibly, from now until summer's end, we can at least reduce the chance that we'll deal with such unpleasant prospects as rationing and threats of fines.

GUEST EDITORIALS FROM OREGON

Most highway bills made sense this year Editorial from The (Albany) Democrat-Herald: Maybe you've noticed this as well, but itseems as ifevery tim etheLegislature meets, it spends more time than it should pondering the way that the rest of us drive.

This is likely a result of all the time legisl ators spend on theroad between Salem and their homes, and we should emphasize before we continue that we're sympatheticto theseroad warriors.

Since they're racking up some serious mileage, it's no wonder that legislators get to think long and hard about the bad habitsofotherdrivers.iJustaswe're sure that our own driving behavior is beyond reproach every time we slide behind the wheel, we're certain that every legislator is a model of driving purity, hands locked in the 10 and 2 positions on the steering wheel and never even being tempted to check why the cellphone is constantly ringing with new texts.)

The logical result is that every legislative session gets filled with proposals likely meant, in some way, to show these

idiot drivers on the road how things shouldbe done.Most ofthese proposals get shot down, as they should, in the course of the session.

This year's session also has included a variety of measures meant to change the way we drive.

But the surprising thing is that some of these measures survived the cut and areheaded to Gov.Kate Brown.And the real surprise is this: They're worthy of support.

The Legislature last week backed a bill that would raise the speed limits from 55 to 65 mph outside the city limits in Central and Eastern Oregon.

Interstate 84 from The Dalles to Idaho would rise to 70 mph, as would all of U.S. 95 in Oregon's southeast corridor.

These changes are overdue. Anyone who's spent any time driving on the eastern reaches of Interstate 84 knows the experience of counting the minutes until you leave Oregon so that you can speed up just a bit. These are wide-open stretches; raising the speed limit so that it's more in sync with the speed limits

in Washington state and Idaho simply makes sense.

The Legislature also backed a bill that allows self-service gasoline late at night in counties with no more than 40,000 residents. The idea is to allow motorists low on fuel in lightly populated areas the chance to get gas without waiting for a stationtoopen.

It's a small crack in the state's ban on self-service gasoline, and, truthfuUy, it's a crack that's not likely to get any bigger any time soon. But the measure did generate some light-hearted soul searching, including this Twitter message from mid-valley Sen. Sara Gelser Today I voted for limited self-service gas in extremely rural areas late at night. Am I still a real Oregonian?"

But legislators wisely shot down a bill that would have designated the left lane on four-lane highways as a passing lane and allowed police to ticket motorists who faile d tom ove overforfastertrafic.

These slowpokes in the left lane are annoying, to be sure, but it still seems extreme to label their behavior illegal.

Legal pot's here, and we have to deal withit bothsides ofthe state line have been bracing for marijuana's legalization ever sincevotersapproved Measure 91in November. They've predicted a rise in crimeand challenges for staffsthatare already stretched thin.

Whether that will prove to be the case has yet to be seen. Certainly our border community could face unique challenges other cities throughout the state won't have to deal with. Certainly there will be people who abuse marijuana, just as thereare peoplewho abuse other legal drugs, including prescription medication and alcohol. We're hopeful, however, that by and large, those who do choose to use the drug will do so responsibly.

We're also hoping that decriminalizing recreational marijuana could have a positive impact on law enforcement. It could actually free up officers who might

otherwise be tied up arresting someone forpotpossession to assiston othercalls.

Police or deputies who might previously have faced a dangerous situation alone could have more backup available.

Now that it'slegal,accessto m arijuana has become an issue of personal liberty. We may not personally want to light up a joint of our own, but by golly, we support your right to do so — out of sighton private property ifyou're older than 21, of course. Freedom of any kind always goes hand in hand with responsibility.

We know if given the choice, Malheur Countywouldn'thave approved Measure 91. Sixty-nine percent of those of us who voted on the issue in November opposed legalizing pot. But it's here now, and it's up to us to make sure this new roadtravelsassmoothly aspossible.

Associated Press

SALEM — The Oregon Legislature adjourned M onday evening afterfi ve months of work. Here's a look at someofthebiggeststories from the2015 session:

VOTER REGISTRATION Oregon became the first state to automatically register most adult citizens to vote. Under the legislation, everyone who has interacted with the Driver and Motor Vehicle Services Division since 2013 but hasn't registered to vote will receive a ballot in the mail at least 20 days before the next statewide election. It's expected to add about 300,000 new voters to the rolls.

The law requires gun buyers and sellers who aren't related to visit a licensed gun dealer who can run a background check. Oregon was the eighth state to require screening on nearly all firearms sales.

MARI3UANA After voters decided last year to legalize marijuana, lawmakers took a number ofsteps to setup a regulated market for the drug.

They cracked down on the largely unregulated medical marijuana program, instituting new grow limits and tracking requirements.

They changed the taxation method, instituting a sales tax on the drug instead of a tax on growers that was in the 2014ballotmeasure.

Oregon is now the easiest place in the nation to get birth control under two new laws that vastly expanded accessto contraception.One measure allows pharmacists to write women a prescriptionforbirth controlafter they complete a risk-screening assessment, eliminating the need to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant. Another bill made Oregon the first state to require insurance companies to cover up to 12 months ofbirthcontrolatatim e.

The Register-Guard of Eugene reports ihttp J/ is.gd/3fsM90 l that the boys, one of whom is 10 years old, the others 12, appeared court Monday. Charges of firstdegree arson and reckless endangerment were added on top of their original charges of criminal mischief, reckless burning and reckless endangerment.

Investigators say the boys were playing with fire June 29 and then fled when the flames got out of control. The panicked boys jumped a chain-link fence as the flames spread, hopped on their bicycles and fled.

The parents of a fikh boy who left before the fire tipped off police on July 1.

The boys are expected to return to court Sept. 1.

Bill'sfailure yleaseshemyfarmers Pendleton's only • Legislation would have &ozen the size of Oregon's hemp industry through March 2017

By Taylor W. Anderson WesCom News Service

SALEM — A bill that opponentssaid favored outdoor marijuana growers over future hemp farmers failed to pass out of the Oregon Legislature in its final day, allowing farmers with plants already in the ground to continue growing what will soon be the state's first legal hemp harvest.

House Bill 2668 would have frozen the hemp industry at its current size through March 2017, with early hemp-license recipients growing and researching the crop that has a long and tenuous legal history because of its relation to marijuana, which Oregon voters legalized in November. Hemp and marijuana are both cannabis plants, but hemp has virtually none of the psychoactive THC that marijuana has.

Rep. Peter Buckley, DAshland, proposed the bill, he said, to minimize the growing painsastherecreational marijuana industry ramps up over the coming year while ensuring hemp growers follow guidelines from the federal government.

But prospective hemp growers — some of whom alreadyplanted the cropcried foul over the bill and celebrated its demise Monday.

'Thisisa greatday for hemp," said ClifFThomason, who planted hemp this spring in Southern Oregon and plans to harvest for the medically beneficial CBD oil, which is highly profitable and is used to treat symptoms of cancer and seizures.

Thomason's farm became a focal point in the Legislature during debate over the bill, largely because he planted within 1,000 feet of a school.

Buckley's bill would have required Thomason to dig up his plants, and the state would have reimbursed him forthe lostcost,cutting short what Thomason hopes is a productive growing season.

The bill would also have revokedthe 13 existing licenses and allowed the

Hemp plants are currently being grown in Josephine County by CliffThomason. The Oregon Legislature this session failed to pass a bill that would have forcedThomason to dig up his plants, which he's growing for medically beneficial CBD oil, because he's too close to a school.

Department ofAgriculture to re-issuelicensesto thatsame group of growers — so long as they weren't within 1,000 feetofa schooland met other requirements.

Buckley said federal guidelines prohibit hemp from being grown that close to schools, which Thomason and the Department of Agriculture dispute. The Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act enhances penalties within 1,000feetof a school but doesn't outright ban the plant within that boundary.

"School kids can live on a hemp farm, work on a hemp farm, wear hemp products, eat hemp products,"Thomason said, "but hemp can't be locatedwithin 1,000feetofa school?"

Buckley said Monday after the bill's death that he11 ask Gov. Kate Brown to direct the department to revoke hemp licenses and renew ones that are in compliance with state and federal law, similar to his bill. He also expects lawsuits challenging the validity of the licenses.

"The feds could resolve this

all by removing cannabis as

a ischedule 1 drug)," Buckley said.sThat would be great for all concerned."

During the debate over the bill, the Department of Agriculture also shouldered much of the blame because the agency didn't follow its own rules when granting licenses toprospectivehemp farmers.

The agency's rules required farmers to submit GPS coordinates showing where the crop would be grown.

Department officials say they didn't exactly follow their own guidelines and didn't collect thecoordinates,an omission that was important because outdoor marijuana growers were concerned the two legalized cannabis plants would pollinate each other, ruining harvests. ''We did not follow the letter of the law when we were initiating permits earlier this year," said Katy Coba, directorofthestate Department of Agriculture.sWe thought we were following the spirit of the law and the strong interestin folksto getthe program up and rtnlIlmg.

PAID SICK LEAVE Despite fierce criticism from Republicans and the business lobby, the Oregon Legisl ature approved a billrequiring many companies to give their employees paid sick days.

The Department of Agriculture has already inspected hemp farmers' operations to ensure they follow agency rulesand that the plantsare belowthestate andfederally allowed limit of the psychoactive ingredient in cannabis — THC. Laws allow up to 0.3 percent THC in hemp plants before the plant is technically considered marijuana.

Michael Hughes, a Bend attorney and hemp license holder with decades of experience studying the plant, saidhe'slookingforward to ramping up his production in search of a hemp strain that will grow well in the higher altitudes and rougher climates in Central and Eastern Oregon.

He said while he had no strong opinion on the bill, his biggest concern was that the debate seemed to ignore researchthat exists about cross-pollination between marijuana and hemp in other countries.

"It's not a new issue in agriculture.

It'sbizarre to me that it became a new issue for cannabis in late May and early June," Hughes said.

Rowe says officers responded to the Hidden Village Mobile Estates shortly before 7 a.m. He says a man inside the trailer was volatile, throwing items out ofhis window and at police.

A short time later, the man fired a shot that struck an officer.

Police returned fire, killing the shooter.

The measure requires employers with at least 10 workers to provide up to 40hours ofpaid leave every year.

Advocates of the measure argued workers shouldn't have to choose between recovering from an illness and preserving their paycheck, but businessinterestssaid they're concerned about costs.

By Kelly House The Oregonian

Oregon celebrity wolf OR-7 and his mate are parenting a secondlitterofpups,and allthreeofthe yearlings born last spring have survived through the winter.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service learned those details from a trail camera placed near the Rogue Pack's den in southern Oregon's Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest.

A time-lapse video published today shows two of the yearlings trotting and tussling, looking healthy and playful.

Whileretrievingthe camera, biologistscame across tiny piles of scat that made it clear OR-7 and his mate are second-time parents. The newest pups have yet to make their on-camera debut.

Elizabeth Materna, a spokeswoman for the fish and wildlife service in Oregon, called the second litter a good sign that OR-7 and his mate are healthy.

There are 77 known wolves in the state, a number that doesn't include any pups born this past spring.

The duration of the current restriction is hard to predict because it depends on how much residents conserve and also on the weather, Kaping said.

If things get worse, the city could impose a"severe" water emergency that would not allow any outside water use at all.

On Monday, public works employees went door-to-doordelivering notices of the restriction. Kaping saidthe majority ofreactionshave been positive.

Terrien said he believes the majorityofcity residents already use less than the amount of water that the restrictions require.

"I can't see where they're gaining anything because that's what we do anyway, most of us,"Terrien said.

He and many other residents also already water their lawns only between 6p.m. and 6 a.m.,asthe restric tions require,Terrien said. "iDuring the dayl, only half of the water gets in the ground,"Terrien said."The rest gets sucked up when it's hot."

Resident Lin Campbell, on the other hand, said she thinks the restric tions aretooharsh.Campbell said she wishes watering was allowed every other day on weekends as well as on weekdays.

"I would rather it wasn't quite so drastic," she said.

Michael Southey said he is not surprisedby thewaterrestriction and does not see it as an inconvenience. Having lived in Orange County, California, before moving to Oregon in the late 1970s, Southey said he has experience with water shortages. Water is a little bit of a problem down there," he joked.

Jeff Borgaard said he understands the scarcity of water and the reasoning behind the restrictions.

"Everybody needs water," he said.

Borgaard and his wife garden as a hobby, and use sprinklers and a hose to water their plants and lawn.

"It's the beginning of July.

I'm a little worried about what we're going to be drawing fiom the watershed when we get to August," she said.

Larry McBroom, the city's construction/engineering supervisor ,said thateven in a normal year the watershed's output diminishes as the summer progresses.

"I don't see it getting any better," McBroom said.

The situation has prompted the city to ask residents to voluntaril y conservewater.

Goodrich Reservoir is one of Baker City's two key late-summer water sources. City officials hope voluntary cutbacks by residents will allow the city to avoid tapping the reservoir until August.

This is the first stage in implementing the city's water curtailment ordinance.

Owen hopes residential water users will heed the city's request. To what extent they do so will help the city avoid imposing mandatory limits on water use.

Owen said her goal is to trim the city's daily water usage fiom the 7 million gallons or more that's typical during hot weather, to 5 million galfacilities, schools, Quail Ridge lons.

tures rose into the 90s on the final five days of the month iand the first seven days of July) the city was usingjust over 6 million gallons daily.

He estimates the daily use has dropped to about 5 million gallons.

Besides the watershed and Goodrich Reservoir, the city utilizes an aquifer storage recovery iASRl system, a well into which the city can inject up to 200 million gallons of water fiom the watershed during fall, winter and spring.

The ASR contains about 150 million gallons of water, McBroom said. The city is pumping about a million gallons a day fiom the well to supplement the watershed

supply.

Owen said the capacity of the ASR is not limited to what has been injected into it. ''What we put into it, sits on top of the groundwater that's already in the aquifer — kind

oflike a big bubble," shesaid.

Owen said the groundwater the well taps is iron-rich and although it's perfectly safe to drink, it has an unpleasant

taste and can stain dothes. cWe try to avoid getting to the point of using that water," she said."Butit's there if we needit."

McBroom said the city usually doesn't tap the ASR well until late July. The city's need to usethatw aterstarting a month early, and the near certainty that the watershed's supply will drop as the summer progresses, are both reasons for concern.

"Right now we are just keeping up," he said."I can't imagine this getting any better."

McBroom said if the voluntary water curtailment doesn't reduce usage enough, the city will have to start using water from Goodrich Reservoir before August, which is when the city typically starts (lomg so.

• Put food coloring in your toilet tank. If it seeps into the bowl without flushing, there's a leak. Fix it and start saving gallons.

• Dishwashers typically use less water than washing dishes by hand. Now, Energy Star dishwashers save even more water and energy.

• Plug the sink instead of running the water to rinse your razor and save up to 300 gallons a month.

• One drip every second adds up to five gallons per day.

Checkyour faucets and showerheads for leaks.

• Avoid planting grass in areas that are hard to water, such as steep inclines and isolated strips along sidewalks and driveways.

• Use 2 to 4 inches of organic mulch around plants to reduce evaporation and save hundreds of gallons of water a year.

• Adjust your lawn mower to the height of 1.5 to 2 inches. Taller grass shades roots and holds soil moisture betterthan short grass.

• Water your plants deeply but less frequently to encourage deep root growth and drought tolerance.

• When you give your pet fresh water, don't throw the old water down the drain. Use it to water your trees or shrubs.

• When the kids want to cool off, use the sprinkler in an area where your lawn needs it most.

"I don't want to hand out a lot of citations," she said."I justwant people to conserve water."

Owen encourages residents to takeconservation seriously. She said that will help to avoid extreme restrictions later in the summer.

Cano'ssingleleadsMarinersto win Baker teams bow out

By Tim Booth

Ap sports vvnter

SEATTLE — Robinson Cano waited nearly six years for another game-winning hit.

Good timing, too. The Seattle Mariners need every victory they can get trying to overcome an underperforming first-half of the season.

Cano lined an RBI single into the right-field corner with one out in the 11th inning, giving the Mariners a 7-6 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night.

Cano lined a 2-1 pitch from

Detroit left-hander Ian Krol i1-2l that one-hopped off the wall and allowed Austin Jackson to jog home from second.

Surprisingly it was the first walk-offhit for Cano since Aug. 28, 2009, with the New York Yankees.

"I been feeling good in my swing the whole year, been hitting a lot ofballs hard, but when you start getting hits it's different. It's less thinking for you. You don't have to thinkwhat you're doing wrong or what you have to do to get those hits," said Cano, who is hitting

.400 so far in July."To be able to come through in that situation where we've been having trouble the whole year, especially myself, doing our job with men in scoring position."

Cano's dramatics capped a night where he gave Seattle a 6-5 lead in the fifth inning with a solo home run, and the Mariners bullpen came up with important outs in key situations. Charlie Furbush

i1-1lpitched the top ofthe 11th for the victory and combined with Carson Smith for three solid innings.

Baker lost 11-3 to La Grande in a semifinal game Tuesday.

Kyler Hester made a diving catch in left field for the third out in the first inning, after Ethan Jensen at shortstop made the first two outs.

Dyson Dollarhide made a great catch in center field in the second inning.

Mason VanArsdall hit a ball to the fence, and Max Rohner had an RBI double in the third inning.

Rohner got caught in a rundown between second and third base but he slid safely into third.

Baker coach Mike Skidgel praised his players, saying they "have serious heart and sportsmanship."

Timely hitting was the key to the win, Baker coach Kevin Logsdon said.

Untimely errors cost Baker, though, in a 7-1 loss to La Grande in a semifinal game on Tuesday. cWe had some errors you just can't make in the semifinals and win," Logsdon said.

LOCAL Goodrich, the fire management officer for the Wallowa Fire Zone.

What worried fire officials, Goodrich said Monday, is the possibility that if left

alone the Dennis Creek fire, though potentially benign initially and even beneficial to a wilderness largely deprived of fire's natural cleansingroleforthe past century, would later in the summer burn outside the wilderness and spread onto private property.

Were that to happen, the Forest Service would be compelledtotry tostop the flames.

But with most of the West enduring a severe drought, and with multiple large fires in several states already straining the nation's firefighting force, Goodrich said it's unlikely that the agency, by late July or August, would be able to muster the resources necessary to block the Dennis Creek fire's advance. ''We had to jump on this one trom the get go," Goodrichsaid."Ifithad started in late August it might have been a totally different situation. But considering we've got typically another 90 days of fire season left, we just don't want to deal with a long-term ifirel in the wilderness, or anywhere."

The Forest Service has allowed several lightning fires that started in July to burn in the Eagle Cap Wilderness — although most of those blazes were ignited late in the month.

And Goodrich said conditions were different in those summers, with considerably more residual moisture from the snowpack, which limited those blazes' potential for rapid growth in the wilderness.

The experience last week of the 16 smokejumpers from McCall, Idaho, who parachuted into the Eagle Cap to try to stop the Dennis Creek fire illustrated the severity of the fire danger. Goodrich said burning conditions are typicalofmid August rather than early July.

In a normal summer, Goodrich said that crew of highly trained firefighters almost surely would have held the blaze to 5 acres or so.

But last week the Dennis Creek fire, fueled by hot, dry weather and wind, grew so quickly that it threatened to block the firefighters' escape route, Goodrich said.

"So we pulled them out," he said.

Since then the Forest Service has relied instead on airtankers and helicoptersto stop the Dennis Creek fire.

Tankers have laid down a strip of fire retardant on threesides ofthe blazethere's little risk of flames spreading to the south due to rockyterrain and arelative scarcityoftrees.And helicopters are dumping water on thehottest spotsinside the perimeter. ''We'resitting pretty good right now" with the firefighting effort, Goodrich said.

Managers prefer to let fires burn Although the decision to fight rather than watch the Dennis Creek fire was an easy one — and almost immediately confirmed as the wise choice based on the smokejumpers' diKcultiesthe situation is also disappointing, Goodrich said.

The Minam RiverCanyon, in common with much of the Eagle Cap, could benefit trom fire, he said.

Much of the canyon has been spared trom flames since 1910, when a massive blaze scorched about 100,000 acres.

But that was a rare event in recent history.

For most of the 20th century the federal government treated wildfires rather like invadingarmies — destructiveforcesthatshould be repelled with all the alacrity the world's wealthiest nation could muster.

Not for nothing did

Smokey Bear become an American icon with his stern admonition about preventing fires.

But forest managers came to realize that eliminating fire could harm more than help ecosystems that had adaptedtoperiodicblazes over many millennia.

In particular, excluding ire allowed farmore treesto f grow in areas than was common historically, and these crowded stands are more vulnerable not only to fires, but to insects and diseases.

In centuries past, by contrast, relatively trequent fires, most of them sparked by lightning, largely prevented such problems.

"There'sa lotofplacesin the wilderness that need some fire in a bad way," Goodrich said.

river pretty much stopped when it reached the old fire scar, Goodrich said.

More fires likely later in the summer With what's normally the peak of the lightning season still ahead — generally from mid July through mid August — it's unlikely that the Dennis Creek fire will be the summer's last in the

Eagle Cap. Goodrich said fire managers will consider each fire individually in deciding their approach.

But it's quite possible that theQ choose to attack each wilderness fire immediately, as they did with the Dennis Creek fire, and wait for a less volatile summer to let flames play their natural role in the

Eagle Cap.

Owyhee Dam backs up a 52-mile expanse of water tailor-made for recreation and to pump water out onto a desert landscape to fuel a vibrant agriculture machine inside Oregon's Malheur County

LACK OF WATER PROVIDES

By Pat Caldwell, For WesCom News Service

When the cement barricade o f the Owyhee Damwas built it wasthe highest structure ofits kind in the world and stood as an irnpressive, Depression era temple an-d also as an example foman's seerning ability to carve out an Eden inside a desolate strip o f desert The dam created the Owyhee Reservoir, a 52-mileexpanse of watertailor-made forrecreation and to pump water out onto a desertlandscape to fuelavibrant agriculture machine inside Oregon'sMalheur County.When the dam was opened, then-President HerbertHoover called it"another great monument to the skill of American engineers. It will exercise a permanently stabilizing effect on your community."

The dam and reservoir provided water for the Owyhee IrrigationDistrictand proved tobe an economic boon for decades but now it is nearly out of water and serves as exhibit A in an ongoing saga of the impact of drought throughoutMalheur County and the West.

A drought that loitered for several years has turned the once mightyendeavor ofthe Owyhee Dam and reservoir into a nearly empty shell and the implications — in terms of lost economic dollars— are daunting.

"It is disheartening to see what is happening," Jay Chamberlin, director of the Owyhee Irrigation District, said.

The Owyhee Irrigation District isdesigned to providewater,or serve,about 125,000 irrigation

The field without vegetation at left has been bedded for sugar beets for two years now, but due to the water shortage it has yet to be planted while wheat grows in the field next to it. Water is scarce this year, and local farmers are adjusting their crops to accommodate the drought. acres, Chamberlin said, but for the third straight year the lack of watercreated an array of challenges for farmers and others that depend upon the system.

The irrigation district is really an interlocking system representing not only the reservoir and the dam but canals, ditches, water pumps, power production and recreation.

I own a company that markets employee benefits, property and cusualtyinsurance and also services the personal needs ofbusiness clients with car, life insurance and homeowner policies.

We pride ourselves on service and in going out of our way to make sure clients get everythingthey need from us, when they need it.

Recently, Ischeduled an appointment with a longterm client, the owner of a manufacturing company.

WhenIarrived, Iwus told the owner was not available and that I was going to be speaking with the owner's son.

After a few pleasantries, the son told me,oWe have outgrown you."

Idid not know what to say in response because this has never happened to me before.

Our meeting ended quickly and us I drove away I usked myself,"Whatjust happened?"

My company is now being phased out. The client is interviewing other insurance brokers, my competitors, to handle their needs going forward.

Do you have any thoughts on preventing this from happening ugain? — MARTIN S. DEAR MARTIN: This is a good news / bad news situation.

The good news is that the owner's son told you specifically and directly why they were seeking to do business with another business partner.

The bad news is that somewhere along the way, you iand perhaps others in your company) missed the road signs icluesl that had been put up telling you that something you weren't going to like was going to happen.

Let me suggest that when a client says "we have outgrown you" it means that you iand/or your company) hasn't evolved, hasn't kept abreast of what is happening in the market and perhaps has no idea what is taking place within the client's organization.

The fact that you only met with the son suggests you are not a genuine Trusted Adviser to the owner.

have.

Stress is part oflife. Generally stressisconsidered a negative emotion or thing. There are differenttypes ofstress.

According to Wikipedia, "Chronic stress is the response to emotionalpressure suffered fora prolonged period over which the individual perceives he or she has no control."

So if peoplefeelchronicstress over money, they believe they have no control over their money.

Hmmm.... It may feel that way but in reality money can be one of the areas oflife you have the most control over. Let's have a paradigm shift and envision

m oney as a positive stress.

What? Some types of stress can be positive, one of which is known as eustress. Eustress is defined as "stress that is deemed healthful or giving one the feeling of fulfillment."

The origin of eustress is Greek, meaning"well, good" plus stress.

According to www.aboutstressmangement.com, eustress can actually be good for your body, is healthful, gives a feeling of contentment and keeps you excited about life.

Eustress certainly sounds much more appealing that chronicstress.Stressisa partof SeeHaines / Page 3B

''When wevery fi rst startedout,itwasweird.It was like we were motorcyclists over cyclists, and then the second to third year it was like we hardly saw any motorcyclists.

Part of that business boon is because Prairie City lies alongthe state-designated Old West Scenic Bikeway, a three-day tour in Eastern Oregon.

The Farm Service Agency is reminding agricultural producers that FSA provides a receipt to customers who requestorreceive assistance or information on FSA programs.

As part of FSA's mission to provide enhanced customer service, producerswho visit FSA will receive documentationofservicesrequested and provided. From December through June, FSA issued m ore than 327,000 electronic receipts.

The 2014 Farm Bill requiresa receiptto beissued for any agricultural program assistance requested from FSA, the National Resources Conservation Service and Rural Development. Receipts include the date, summary of the visit and any agricultural information, program and/or loan assistance provided to an individual or entity.

In somecases,a form or document — such as a completed and signed program enrollment form — serve as the customer receiptinstead of a printed or electronic receipt.

On an early June morning, a group of spandex-clad tourists pedaled down the highway out of the tiny town of Prairie City.

"All right! Take a left here, and don't take off until you see the ghost town!" said Brad Gordon, a guide for Bicycle Adventures and leader of the nine-day cycling trip. Gordon leads trips all over the Northwest, but he said he loves the roads in Oregon. ''When you get out on the rural roads in Oregon, peopleare very respectful," Gordon said.

Part of the group's route follows the Old West Scenic Bikeway in Eastern Oregon.

Most U.S. states have scenic byways for vehicles, to draw m otorists to attractions and special places.

But in Oregon, you also find scenic bikeways: state-designatedroutes designedfor cyclists.

Oregon's Scenic Bikeways program is unique in the nation, according to state officials. The bikeways are signed routes along some of Oregon's most beautiful, bicycle-friendly roadways.

Some bikeways are short and easy. Others are epic ridesdesigned for three-or four-day tours.

They're all designed to draw cyclists — and their dollars — to different parts of the state, especially to rural communities.

Cyclists who rode Oregon Scenic Bikeways spent approximately $12.4 million dollars in 2014, according to a Travel Oregon study

by Stella Wilder THURSDAY, JULY 9, 2015 YOUR 8IRTH DAY by Stella Wilder Born today, you have such a developed view of humanity and the world around you that it will surely inform nearly every signifi cant thingyou do in life. The catch, ofcourse,

you exert over others will be felt far from home, even among thosewho have little to do with your affairs.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) There's no such thing as a bad decision or is there?

Certain circumstances may make it difficult to see things clearly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your ached ule is as ftrll as it can possibly be or so you may think, until an unexpected opportunity encourages you to take on even more.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may not fully understand what is required ofyou, but you are perfectly willing to follow some one down a new road.

tion of motive is likely to arise before the day is out. What you learn about yourself and another may open your eyes.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You must look beneath the surface ifyou want to fully understand a situation and the people who are pulling the strings.

ARIES (March 21-Aprll 19) You may not be feeling quite likeyourself, but you have much to accomplish that requires you to carry on regardless.

TAURUS (Aprll 20-May 20) You're onto something that can bring you both recogni tion and profit, provided you don't let your own insecurity stand in the way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Focus on Hidden information is uncovered at last. trends,andyou'l lseew herethebestopportu You'll be in a new position that allows you to nities lie. A negative can become a positive call the shots with greater freedom. before the day is out.

C APRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Y o u may not be as connected as usual to what is COPYRIGHTelr UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE INC DtrIRIBUIED BYUNIVERSAL UCLICK FOR Urr going on, but your instincts will kick in just in llewr r K » Qv M o e l er e r r r 67e time, late in the day.

is that your personal view may not be neces sarily positive; rather, it may be so bleak that your behavior could become (or be consid ered1 distinctly antisocial, antihuman and perhaps even antilife. There is no way to tell, when you are young, which view of the world you will harbor, but as you mature and let that view dictate your development, it will become clear at least to those around you.

Fortunately, you do not have to be ruled entirely by this outlook; ifyou work har4 you can changeit.

FRIDAY, JULY 10 CANCER (June 21-July 22) If it's per fection you're af'ter, you should try something else. If it's personal growth you're after, you're on the right track.

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — House Republicans are proposing that some forest fires be treated like federal disasters, an attempt to win broader supportforlegislation that targetsovergrown national forest lands.

The legislation focuses on speedingup timber harvests and the removal of underbrush the Forest Service deems necessary to improving the health of a forest.

Some Democratic lawmakers and environmental groups have been critical of the bill because they say it would erode key environmental safeguards.

With a House vote expected this week, GOP lawmakers are adding the federal disaster language to the bill, something the Obama administration first proposedearly lastyear,but with some wrinkles.

Under current policy, the agencies fighting wildfires divert money toward firefighting from other programs during particularly busy years. But that practice delaysthe very effortsdesigned to prevent fires in the first place, such as the thinning of deadtreesand the removal of thick underbrush. Supporterssaythat letting federal agencies tap into a disaster fund will prevent such borrowing and lessen the risk ofcatastrophicforestfi resin the coming years.

This year's fire season appears to be shaping up a busy one, adding some urgency to tackling the funding problem.A reportMonday

Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah., the chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee.

Bishop said the bill should garner broad support. But Robert Bonnie, who oversees natural resource issues at the Agriculture Department, which houses the Forest Service, indicated the GOP has more work to do to win over the administration. He described the bill as a step forward but said the changes

don't go far enough to address financial challenges thatthe ForestServicefaces as more and more of its budget is eaten up by fighting forest fires. Bonnie said he wanted to continue talking to lawmakers before formally taking a stand.

One of the biggestdifferences between what House Republicans are backing and what the administration proposed is when federal agencies could tap into a disaster account.

The government estimates its firefighting needs based on theaverage costsofthe 10 previous years. The administration supports funding the agenciesat70 percent of the 10-year average and using the Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster fund to cover remaining costsas wellasprovidemore m oney to treatforests.
