Senior Citiz ns
The Seniors had a very
lovely dinner Tuesday, pre-
pared by the senior cook,
June Cook. Forty-five meals
were prepared and served.
Two guests were present.
The cooks helper June Davis
was ill, hurry and get well
June.
The afternoon Kinder-
garten class came to sing for
the Seniors. They were
joined in their last song by
the Seniors. The generations
of the elderly and the young
sang together and enjoyed
each other.
The Seniors owe a very
big thank-you to their tea-
cher June Derrie, and the
mothers that accompanied
them. They would like to
thank Jewell Woods for the
very beautiful flowers which
she so willingly brings each
esday for our tables, we
enjoy them during dinner,
then the patients at the
hospital will enjoy them.
Several t h i n g s were

Plans are in the making for
the American Legion dinner,
November 12th, which the
Seniors are preparing and
serving.
The Senior bus is leaving
around 9:00 o'clock Friday

The card party was not
very well attended, but those
that did attend had a grand
time. No prizes were given
due to the small crowd.
Tuesdays weather made
us think of winter, with the
blustery north wind and the
noted that "all Americans
have been affected in one
form or another by rising
energy costs. But the eld-
erly, many of whom live on
limited incomes, are among
those experiencing t h e
greatest hardships and dep-
rivation."
Energy costs for elderly
households with income not
exceeding $5,000 increased
from between 45 per cent in
the Western United States to
nearly 68 per cent in the
North Central S t a t e s
between 1973 and 1976,
Church noted.
"Increases in Social Secu-
rity and Supplemental Secu-
rity Income," the Senator
added, "have fallen far be-
hind rising energy costs in
recent years. Yet, these pro-
grams are the economic
mainstay for the vast major-
ity of older A m e r i c a n s.
Social Security and SSI bene-
fits increased about 30 per
cent between 1973 and 1976.
However, energy costs rose
at a much more accelerated
rate during this same period:
42 per cent for electricity, 58
per cent for natural gas, and
83 per cent for fuel off."
Last winter, many older
Americans were faced with
monthly heating bills that
ranged from $150 to $300,
while trying to exist on Social
Security, which averages
$234 a month for a retired
worker.
"The refundable tax credit
can provide welcome and
overdue relief for more than
10 million eligible elderly
households, and more than 6
million older Americans who
live alone," Church said.

Tax credit
The Senate today adopted
an amendment sponsored by
Senators Church and
Pete Domenici to provide a
refundable ~ credit of $75
to elderly households with
adjusted gross incomes not
exceeding $7,500 a year.
The refund is designed to
provide relief from rising
energy costs for persons
aged 65 or older, especially
The Council Valley Gran-
ger's met on Oct. 28 with
Orley Hart presiding in the
absence of Master Lloyd
Brown.
The problem of the worn
out fence pests holding up
the wires between the
Grange property and Luther
Taylor was discussed. Bill
C.den Probst, and
Lester Gould were encou-
raged to repair the fence.
Helen Gould was asked to
be chairman of the project to
replace the faded curtains.
Margaret Merk presented

The worldwide boom in
irrigation is putting a serious
s t r a i n on already-tight
energy resources, agricul-
tural researches w e r e
warned Wednesday by Dr.
Marvin E. Jensen, director
of the Snake River Conserva-
tion Research C e n t e r,
Kimberly, Idaho.
Jensen, a scientist of the
Agricultural Research Ser-
vice, U.S. Department of
Agriculture, was a featured
speaker at the University of
Missouri seminar on climate
and agricultural technology
this week.

Hearings on a bill to
postpone for one year any
increase in fees charged by
federal agencies for grazing
cattle and sheep on public
lands are being held in the
House Interior Committee.
Congressman S t e v e
Symms, R-Idaho, a co-
sponsor of the bill and a
member of the House
Interior Committee, said the
one-year delay would give
Congress time to study pos-
sible alternatives to the new
grazing fee proposal.
The proposal by the
Bureau of Land Manage-
ment and the Forest Service
called for a 25 per cent
increase in grazing fees for
next year.
Symms said the proposed
25 per cent hike is about four

Jenaen said.

Symms said the ideal for-
mula for grazing fees should
tie the fee to production
costs and the market situa-
tion, a position earlier
rejected by the BLM and the
Forest Service.
