Newspaper Page Texti ROSEBURS" NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCR 21. FIVE t Smaller Schools May Absorb Overflow From Education . Program Mapped for Vefs WASHINGTOK The Veterans Administration, with the help of the Oflice ol Education, Is conducting a survey which may go a long way toward solving the critical problem of higher education for veterans under the GI Bill of Rights next fall. Nearly 2,000 senior and Junior colleees will be surveyed for edu cational and housing facilities for veterans. The idea Is to channel veterans seeking college educations into these smaller schobls. More than 40 per cent of the veterans now getting higher education under the bill are attending 48 of the larger and better known colleges and universities. Many smaller schools have so few that they aren't even tabulated. Several larger universities are already so overcrowded that they have re fused to take any more students until accommodations can be en larged and faculties increased. VFW Opens Campaign At the same time, the Veter ans of Foreign Wars are open ing a campaign to expand the nation's educational system through federal subsidies. Pre sumably a large portion of the funds would go to smaller col leges. The "name" Institutions, al ready crowded to overflowing. are looking forward with some distress to what will happen when the postwar flood ebbs. Caught with vastly Increased fa cilities and enlarged staffs, they would face bankruptcy. Sixty to 80 students added to each of the 1,500 to 2,000 smaller colleges probably could take care of the additional veterans above normal enrollment next autumn, and even ake some of the load off the the big schools. VFW points out that by the end VFW points out that by the end of this year, 13,000,000 veterans will have been discharged. Cer tain it is that hundreds of thou sands of these have become college-conscious. The increasing number of un employed veterans (now esti mated at more than 1,000,000) is another factor. Many of these are bound to want to take education grants in the hope that they will icau 10 security. The report of the VA survey of smaller colleges will be interest ing if it ever is made public. The survey might show, just how much of the higher-education system has survived the war to carry on in the emergency ahead. Beets When Young Excel in Flavor as Weil as Nutrition When beets are young, you eat the entire plant, tops and root; and non-gardening friends will rave about this delicious dish, which those who buy their vege tables In markets can never know. By sowing a four weeks sup ply every four weeks, you can enjoy young beets all summer long, mere is seldom irouDie in growing thm; but if yours grow too slowly, and have too much red and yellow coloring in their leaves, it is due to soil that is too add. A Bttto lima spread along the row and washed in will cor rect this. Seeds should be sown an Inch apart, covered half an inch, and the soil pressed well above them. The tops are at their best when about six inches tall; later they become stringy. For an early har vest, seed is sometimes sown in doors and plants set out in the garden when six weeks old. They will stand light frosts. Each beet seed is really a clus ter of seed, and w here it is sown several plants will usually grow. For the quickest development of the roots, these should be thinned out promptly; but if the tops are to be eaten, thinning may be de layed until the plants are six inches tall, when the leaves are at their best. Beets left to mature should stand four lnehes apart. While of highest quality when young, not much larger than a golf ball, older roots retain their sweetness and are excellent for beet soup and pickles. Beets can be sown as soon as the ground has been prepared. Germination may take eight to 10 days, and may be delayed by dry weather, as the seeds require more moisture than some to get them started. The government standard germination percentage is 65 and good seed does not often exceed that. Beet tops are among the rich est of vegetables in Vitamin A, and also have a good portion of Vitamins B and C. The roots have Vitamin B in fair amount; with a little Vitamin C. There are many excellent varieties, some maturing in 55 days from the time seed are sown, others taking as long as 80 days. For table quality of both tops and roots, several sowings of an early va riety are recommended.

Oak St. Food Saving for famine Aid to be Sought in Oregon Oregon citizens will be asked to eat less of some foods, prevent waste and endure a few shortages to make more wheat and food fats and oils available to save famine ridden countries. The voluntary support of every man, woman and child in the state will be sought in a compre hensive food conservation pro gram being initiated by county USDA councils, E. Harvey Miller, state director of the USDA Pro duction and Marketing Adminis tration and chairman of the Ore gon USDA council, has an nounced. Miller and county AAA committee chairmen have been named by Secretary of Agricul ture Anderson as state and county emergency food program managers. Voluntary food for-f amine-re-lief committees, made up of rep resentatives of all groups who can help in the program, are pro posed for each county in plans adopted by the Oregon USDA council and sent to each county emergency food program man ager. Food conservation goals will be set up for each county. Subcom mittees representing consumers and trade groups, such as restau rants and bakeries, will be formed to put into effect specific food conservation measures. As pro posed by the National Famine Emergency Committee, these measures will include such wheat-and-fat saving steps as substitu tion of potatoes for bread, serv ing fewer fried foods, open-face pies, and one slice of bread with restaurant meals. "The world food situation is ex eeedinelv serious. Millions of our fellow human beings in other lands face the terrible disaster of famine. Every ounce of food we can spare from our abundance will save the lives of starving peo ple, Milcr commented.

HERE'S HOW I DO IT: . . . Dismantle the room by removing knickknacks, pictures, draperies, cur tains, window shades, rugs, and smaller pieces of furniture. . . . Move the larger pieces of furniture to the center of the floor and cover with sheets. . . . Start at the ceiling and work down, ' cleaning walls, woodwork, and windows in that order. . . . Clean furniture, then the floors and rugs. . . . Clean blinds, wash curtains, clean pictures and small furniture. Be sure to cover every inch of exposed space with some sort of cleaner. . . . Clean mirrors and picture glass with window cleaner. Use soap and water on Jtnickknacks wherever possible. . . . Reassemble the room and move to the next one. In no time the entire house is spick-and-span.
