bottom fish all enjoy a chapter
apiece.
There is also a chapter in the
book entitled “The Coast in

Oregon 4-H archers are
beginning preparations this
month for the annual 4-H Ar
chery Mail-In Tournament
which begins in November and
continues through
April,
reports Cal Monroe, Oregon
State University assistant state
4-H leader.
The competition, which is
sponsored by the Oregon Bow
Hunters, is one of the events
held each year designed to he'n
young bowmen improve their
accuracy and sportsmanship,
Monroe explains. It is open to
all 4-H archers, with a different!
round shot each month.
The mail-in tournament is
just one activity for young men
and women enrolled in the 4-H
archery clubs, Monroe said.
With the help of an adult
leader, the project is designed
to assist young people in
learning how to select and care
for bows and arrows and how to
use them properly so that they
may enjoy archery as either a
sport or hobby, he explains.
An important segment of the
project is the study of animals
and birds and wildlife con
servation. In fact, 4-H archery
members are encouraged to
prepare demonstrations and 1
exhibits relating to con
servation of natural resources.
Safety is also stressed in the
project, Monroe notes. A 4-H
member can be dropped from a
club for violation of safety
rules.

How often do you use your
blender?—What do you use it
for?—Do you know the things a
blender will not do?
These questions and many
others w ere answ ered by
Nancy Ruhl and Thelma Krum
at the Oct. 12th meeting of
Firwood Extension.
You will use your blender
more if you leave it out where it
is easy to get at. It has many
uses so it should be handy.
It chops raisin s, dates,
nuts, m eats, ch eese and
meats for sandwiches; grates
lem on or orange rinds,
coconut; blends left overs into
creamy soups; makes non
separating salad dressing and
very good dips; and has many
other uses.
There are also some No-no’s
for blenders. Do not beat egg
whites; mash potatoes; grind
raw meat in large quantities;
crush ice cubes unless you
break them in small pieces
• first.
A cole-slaw salad and a thick
creamy salad dressing were
made at the meeting.
Another thing that was made
was Gazpacho soup. This is a
cold soup. Use 3 or 4 tomatoes
cut in one inch pieces— small
onion— green pepper cut in
strip s—clove g a rlic—2 T.
vinegar—2 T. olive oil—*6 tsp.
salt. Cover with water. Blend.
Other things can be added but
here is a real health drink.
Blenders come in many
shapes and colors, so you must
pick the one best suitable for
your family. More speed means
more power, but after 8 speeds
there is little difference in the
power.
This blender lesson was very
informative and many learned
how to use their blender to a
better advantage.

These days, slaving in a kitchen is about
as old-fashioned and inefficient as burning a
kerosene lamp.
Thanks to modern electric living, w e’ve come
a long way.
Now, simply by turning a dial, pushing a
button, or flipping a switch, you can save work,
save time...and enjoy freedom to do more
important things.
Electricity makes it easy.
And there are so many modern electric
conveniences to help make your life richer.
For example, electric freezers that store foods
and keep them fresh for long periods of time.
New self-cleaning ovens which, incidentally,
are great for liberating husbands who help
working wives with the kitchen chores.
Trash-mashers that keep both your kitchen and
the outdoor environment cleaner, and nicer
looking. And many, many more.
There are plenty of new conveniences
coming, too.
To keep ahead of your evei growing electrical
demands, PGE is building new generating plants
which are essential for reliable electric service.
Energy from the atom, which is clean to make and
clean to use, will provide adequate supplies of
electricity while preserving Oregon s matchless
environment. If you d like a free booklet on
Why Oregon needs more power/
