The Enterprise Public Library inthe City of Enterprise, WallowaCounty, is among Oregon’s latestentries in the National Register ofHistoric Places.

Completed in 1914, the Enter-prise Public Library is recognizedas an important community insti-tution that represents the City’scommitment to continuing publiceducation and as a representativeexample of a Carnegie Library. TheLibrary was constructed with a$5,000 grant from the Carnegie Cor-poration, founded by steel mag-nate Andrew Carnegie. Carnegiefinancially supported the construc-tion of hundreds of free librariesacross the country between 1886and 1917 because he believed thatfree public libraries played an im-portant role in social betterment ofthe people they served. In ex-change for the grant, the City ofEnterprise committed to providinga building site, $500 for the annualoperating budget, and to follow theCarnegie Corporation’s construc-tion guidelines. The Enterprise

Enterprise PublicLibrary listed in theNational Register ofHistoric PlacesConstructed in 1914, it was built witha $5,000 grant from Carnegy Corp.

Public Library includes many ofthe characteristics of Carnegie-funded libraries, including Clas-sical Revival styling and brickconstruction. Also typical ofCarnegie Libraries is the locationof the reading room on the mainfloor with windows set above theopen book shelves, a centrallylocated circulation desk, and pub-lic meeting space in the basement.

Oregon’s State AdvisoryCommittee on Historic Preserva-tion recommended the building’snomination at their June 2013meeting. Eight historic propertiesin Enterprise are now listed in theNational Register, which is main-tained by the National Park Ser-vice under the authority of theNational Historic Preservation Actof 1966.

The monthly gardening calen-dars are produced by OSU Exten-sion. Each calendar provides re-minders of key garden chores, suchas fertilizing, pest control, planting,and maintenance.

Recommendations in this calen-dar are not necessarily applicableto all areas of Oregon. For more in-formation, contact your local Ex-tension office.

Sustainable gardeningOregon State University Exten-

sion Service encourages sustain-able gardening practices.

Preventative pest management

is emphasized over reactive pestcontrol. Identify and monitor prob-lems before acting, and opt for theleast toxic approach that will rem-edy the problem.· First consider cultural, and thenphysical controls. The conserva-tion of biological control agents(predators, parasitoids) should befavored over the purchase and re-lease of biological controls.· Use chemical controls onlywhen necessary, only after identi-fying a pest problem, and only af-ter thoroughly reading the pesti-cide label. Least-toxic choices in-

clude insecticidal soaps, horticul-tural oils, botanical insecticides,organic and synthetic pesticides— when used judiciously.

Planning· Force spring bulbs for indoorblooms in December.Maintenance and Clean Up· Service lawn mower prior to win-ter.· Check potatoes in storage andremove any going bad.· Place a portable cold frame overrows of winter vegetables.· Place mulch around berries forwinter protection.

· Cover rhubarb and asparagusbeds with composted manure andstraw.· Rake and compost leaves that

are free of diseases and insects.Use mulches to prevent erosionand compaction from rain.· To protect built-in sprinkler sys-tems draining the system and in-sulate the valve mechanisms.· Clean and oil lawnmower, othergarden equipment and tools beforestoring for winter. Drain and storehoses carefully to avoid damagefrom freezing. Renew mulch aroundperennial flower beds after remov-ing weeds.· Protect tender evergreens fromdrying wind.· Tie limbs of upright evergreensto prevent breakage by snow or ice.· Trim chrysanthemums to 4 to 6inches after they finish blooming.· Leave ornamental grasses up inwinter to provide winter texture inthe landscape. Cut them back a fewinches above the ground in earlyspring.· Central/eastern Oregon: wateryour newly planted perennials,trees and shrubs every 6 to 8weeks with a deep soaking to pre-vent drying out, if there is no snowcover and the ground is warmenough to accept water.· Central/eastern Oregon: wrapthe trunks of young, thin-barkedtrees (maples, aspen, ash) with pa-per tree wrap late in the month to

OSU Extension Service provides gardening tips year-roundprevent sunscald. Remove in April.Wrap new trees 2-3 years in a rowuntil the outer bark has thickened.

Wilson Road Mobile Home Park.Later in life diabetes took most

moil in domestic and worldevents? Thank goodness there isone bright spot on the local level.Our local workforce and highschool graduates have a rocksolid provider of higher educationand specialized training in Mor-row and Umatilla County, allwithin driving distance. New hightechnology business is movinginto the Port of Morrow and intoUmatilla County’s industrial andagricultural base, all of this is tak-ing place without a workforce fol-lowing.

Blue Mountain CommunityCollege is the provider of hightech information to kick start brightyoung minds into the land of newopportunities. Now it is our turnto put our shoulders to the wheeland make sure that we don’t takeall this for granted.

BMCC is introducing a con-tinuation Capital Levy for your ap-proval November 5th, upgradingthe existing buildings into the 21stcentury and adding facilities toaccommodate our youngworkforce into the advancingtechnology coming into our area.The new Capital ImprovementLevy is a continuation of the sameone: same rate per thousand asthe old one expiring.

After 32 years of teaching andadministrative experience in threeOregon Community Colleges, Ican tell you without hesitationthat quality training programs de-pend upon state of the art facili-ties and equipment. New programsthat prepare students for local andregional jobs are the things thatcommunity colleges do best. Butto do and be the best a constantvigil must be kept to keep pacewith ever changing technology.

Blue Mountain CommunityCollege’s reputation locally andstatewide has always been one ofexcellence. Ballot Measure 30-96is a capital improvement bond re-

newal that focuses on newworkforce training programs aswell as updating existing computerand communication infrastructure.

I encourage you to join me invoting YES on Ballot Measure 30-96 in support of BMCC and theexcellence in education and train-ing it brings to northeastern Or-egon.Patrick Loughary, Pendleton

VOTE YES ON MEASURE 30-96To the Editor:

The residents of Morrow andUmatilla Counties have an oppor-tunity to assist with the economicfuture of northeastern Oregon.Rural counties have alwaysstruggled to provide job opportu-nities for our young adults. I’msure that all of you have heardabout “brain drain”, referring to ouryoung people leaving the area tofind employment.

Did you know that Blue Moun-tain Community College (BMCC)serves 10,000 students each year,and 80% of them remain in the lo-cal area? If the bond measure 30-96 passes in November BMCC willconstruct facilities for three newworkforce training programsneeded and requested by employ-ers in our region. These trainingprograms will enhance our agricul-ture-based economy and providefor more jobs in our region. Therewill be an Applied Animal ScienceEducation Center in Pendleton, ASustainable Precision IrrigatedAgriculture Center in Hermistonand an Industrial ProcessesWorkforce and STEM Center inBoardman.

By state law, a capital improve-ment bond can be used only foractivities directly related to con-struction of new buildings or im-provement of existing buildings.None of the funding will be usedfor staff salaries, benefits or foroperating costs. I would also liketo remind all of you voters that thetax rate WILL NOT INCREASE; itwill remain the same as the expir-ing bond.

I ask for your support for BondMeasure 30-96. Support the mea-sure that supports northeasternOregon.VOTE YES ON MEASURE 30-96Jill Thorne, Pendleton

To The Editor:The voters in November have a tre-

mendous opportunity to further theeducational opportunities for studentsin our area by passing the Blue Moun-tain Community College Capital Im-provement Bond Renewal.

Funds from this bond will build fa-cilities in Pendleton, Hermiston andBoardman to support new educationalprograms in applied animal science,precision irrigated agriculture and in-dustrial workers, respectively, as wellas updating infrastructure and fixingaging facilities on the main campus atPendleton, and enhance current facili-ties in Milton Freewater, Boardman, andHermiston.

Agriculture is the heart of our localeconomy and each of these major im-provements supports important needsto provide trained workers while allow-ing local students to stay close tohome.

Of the three new programs beingproposed, I am most acquainted withprecision agriculture and the opportu-nities for now and the possibilities forthe future. This area is truly a hot topictoday and will be in the years ahead aswe learn to use technology to increaseor maintain crop yields with reducedinputs. Actually a hungry world needsand is looking for new technology andthose who know how to apply this tech-nology in agriculture.

Given that BMCC is located in thecenter of one of the most technologyadvanced growing regions in the world,building a precision agriculture programalso makes sense.

The time is right, the location makessense and the needs are great, so let’ssupport local opportunities for our stu-dents.

I strongly support this bond mea-sure and encourage voters in our re-gion to do so as well.Phil Hamm32738 Diagonal RdHermiston5415614724 or5415676281
