Messengerto perform at AFP Sept. 5—6 Food for thought
Coun‘esy submission
Local singer/songwriter Jon
Messenger brings to his audi-
ences a hearty stew concocted
from the influences of an eclectic
musical background. Influenced
by everything he’s heard, he likes
to say, “I play what I can, and what
I can’t, I want to learn.” Jon has
been playing at gatherings, festi-
vals, churches, parties,
every tune Jon writes; he has
earned his spurs among true cow—
boy poets and musicians. He
writes some of the most haunt-
ingly beautiful songs of our time
and has found a way to express
insights into the livestock com-
munity that most people simply
overlook. He’s become an inte—
gral part of the Western music
treat this year. At each perfor-
mance a guest will receive a gift
from Outback. Will you be the
lucky winner this time? There’s
only one way to find out — come
to a show!
If you go:
Doors open at 1 p.m., with
performances starting at 2 pm.

WATER, WATER NOWHERE.
Recent news is drought, pol-
luted water and rising salty ocean.
Out here I just used to plan for a
short electrical outage for my
well. You know a can of
Stemo and some candles.
With recent pollution
news, how do I stock up with
clean water? I imagine blue , .

my house can get by with re-

ing 1ess.....for a little while.
It takes some planning
and making a habit and probably
remembering grandmothers’
tricks. She did not want to haul
water any more than we do.
Some advice from FEMA,
Red Cross, WHO. During a full
blown emergency each house-
hold member and pet needs at
least one gallon of water per day
to survive. I say two gallons.
No flushing, no baths, no
laundry, no flower garden.
Hydrate yourself, minimal
cooking, wash utensils, and use
paper plates and Dixie cups. At
this point baby wipes are price—
less! I buy off brand baby wipes
at Saucedo’s #80 for a dollar. At
home I divide into four zip lock
bags and seal with 1A cup of hy-
drogen peroxide. One in each
truck and one in bathroom.
Stored vinegar, bleach,
Dawn dishwashing detergent (not
soap), hydrogen peroxide are im-
portant cleaners and inexpensive.
Use washable rags not disappear-
ing paper towels.
If you are blessed with a well
save your water table now.
1. don’t let water run while
you brush your teeth
2. wash your hands with one
baby wipe.
3. flush less. Up to 1993 a
toilet used 3.5 gallons per flush.
Now it’s 1.6 gallons.
4. Check for leaky faucets.
5. Average US household
uses 70 gallons per person per day.
6. Use a plastic tub in your
sink. Uses less than sink. Fill with
only light detergent and soak
dishes, utensils, dip your hands.
Scrub vegetables in plastic tub
with small amount of water. No
wasteful running water. Now you
have recycled gray water for rose
bushes and trees.
7. Take short showers. Turn
off while you lather.
