Co-op Speaker Asks New Plan For Land Use KANSAS CITY, Dec. 13-(P)-Democracy and Christianity must work together to offer the world's farmers a new system of land use to counteract communist "agrar ian reform," Msgr. I G. Ligutti said Tuesday. The Monsignor, director of the National Catholic Rural Life con ference at Des Moines, spoke at the 22nd annual meeting of the Consumers Co-operative associa tion. About 3,000 representatives of co-oos in nine midwestern states are attending. The major problem of the world today," Monsignor Ligutti said, "is a problem of the land and the people of the land. The land is not used as well as it Should be used anywhere in the world. The land is not available to everyone who wants to use It "Seventy jer cent of the people CHOWWHIUWIWOWCT MOKE-GET WR,6LEY AT HeARKT STORE. in he world arc farmers' 6r 'peas ants. But they are the ones who own the least land. 1 "Religiously, these farmers and peasants are under-privileged and. what is the most paradoxical of alL although these people pro duce the food, they have the worst diet "It is no wonder that the com munists now devote the major share of their effort to converting fanners and peasants." j i I Grocer's Hobby Makes Gifts fon Christmas Time Statesman News Service MEHAMA Fritz Anunsen, gro cery manager of Golliet'a store, who likes to paint dishes glass' ware and pottery, finds this hob by estecially useful at this sea son. He styles individual gifts for Christmas. ' s Decorations are drawn free hand by Fritz and colored by his wife, who also enjoys the j hobby, At Dresent the Anunsens are painting Christmas cards in their spare time. With four youngsters, pre-school age, time is at; a min mum at night when the children are asleep. After being painted, the dishes are baked at 250 degrees, for an hour until the paint fuses in a permanent design. j For party favors the Anunsens have Dainted names on cocktail glasses, baked them and presented one to each guest. j Iffiaimclhi EuaiimlbDiimgs Ed Taylor who has lived up in the Mehama area almost all of his life is one of the older livestock members always receiving a spe cial hand at the Marion county meetings. He was so honored at the recent meeting of the Marion County Livestock Association held at Waldo Hills. Now that income tax days for farmers are rolling around again, one wouldn't guess that the an nual income from livestock ana crops in Marion county is some thing like $15,000,000. But that's true, says Harry L. Riches, Ma rion county agent But Harry ana the rest of the farmers chorus (and there really are no false not es in that chorus either) that the and prices high, a lot of new fil- arsenate was used when the worms began their work on the leaves. Henry Zorn, one of Marion county's long-time Jersey breeders, has added three new heifers to his 89 head at Cham poeg.

If you think of Irrigation as something new that the soil conservation folk thought up to keep their jobs, yon had better go to Chill says E. R. Jackman, secretary of the Oregen Seed league. Irrigation has been practiced in Chili for thous ands of' years, he says. He just got back from there recently. Naomie Massee, attractive femi nine fanner from out north of Salem, had a lot of fun at the recent nut meeting at Salem, tell ing the men how best to harvest a filbert crop. She not only serv ed on the harvest panel but in be tween times the masculine grow ers would refer to her for the answer-to some of their more intri cate problems. And while she an swered each question readily and with much knowledge, she sat through the convention, happily, with embroidery hoops and a bit of white to embroider. She has 29 acres of nuts and harvested 31 tons of green filberts from these. They dried away something like 21 percent this year, she said. Naomi also expressed a pref erence for dust over spray m gen eral use. She liked DDT dust for moths and dusted not only the tree but the ground as welL Lead bert trees were set out. Now when filberts are again being import ed and prices for nuts aren't what they were, all of these trees are coming into bearing adding some what to the problem. There were no filberts here to speak of 25 years ago, and now look what we have, said Marion.

Ruth Miller, the hand some blonde who had prepar ed the butter said she oil-roasted the nuts, peeled them aad then rround them. She then added a commercial "fix" sta bilizer so that they wouldn't separate (like nut butter occa sionally does) and there yon had it During one of the re cesses at the convention. Ruth, (who is research assistant at the state college) served this butter on crackers and the whole disappeared faster than she and her assistants could prepare them. This butter would have to sell for about 2 per cent higher than does peanut butter, but look what you are getting, taste the excellent flavor, Ruth said. Dr. William B. Chandlee of Hillsboro also displayed what could be done with filberts in proper merchandising. He put up five cellophaned packages of nuts in gift packages and has been sell ing them all over the United Stat- . . . i es. They were roasted, sailed. chocolate-coated, sliced and chop ped. The doctor, who is with the Hillsboro nut plant, also has an orchard of his own 30 acres out near Scholls. The first were plant ed in 1923 and are still bearing fine, he says. John Trunk of Salem was sort of the opinion that nut growers ought to get off the production hone and ride the marketing mule a bit He said that "we don't mind spendinr thousands of dollars in research on me chanical equipment to cultivate and harvest nuts, but when it comes to marketinr them, we Ise interest and won't fork out a cent to carry on research in this line." He even went so far as to point out that after so many filberts were harvested as there usually were in the Willamette valley, they would n't be much good to the grow er unless they were sold. "Vernon Hepler of Barlow says that garden slugs are on the prowl again causing a lot of damage to legumes. They seem to display a I special fondness for his newly planted sub and white clover just as it comes through the ground. DICK TRACT jpp7" im iup'' " n WUATS TVC CCA) MORS EM EAT X fCV?

Poles and trelisses were washed away and silt and debris were left in their place in many of the valley yards. However, overall damage is be lieved to be rather small. Hop reports released this week also show that some of the early November strength in the hop market was lost later in the month. A few contracts for regu lar seeded clusters from next year's crops 'were written at 68 cents a pound basis, 6 percent leaf and stem content. Bids were later lowered to 67 cents. How ever, a large part of th0951 hop crop has been sold and grower of ferings are now light. ONTWE U2PACE, CAPTAIN I w CAM OCT A CLEAR AT MIM NOW 1 Micm MOUSE LAP...
