According to the bureau of agricultural economics, Washington, D . C , gross farm returns in Oregon from livestock and livestock products for the year 1945 totaled $136,431,000. This is real wealth, created by farmers, spent in the channels o f Oregon trade, benefiting progressive citizens who, like Grangers, take pride in building a great commonwealth. Thirty thousand alert, forward-looking farmers are members of the Oregon State Grange. They are directed by these common motives— better living and working conditions; a very real desire to continue shaping the pattern of Oregon’s development for the good o f all. « il® * You needn’t be a slave to your kitchen— you needn’t stay home to cook dinner — nor even stay home on wash-day, if you go all-electric and live the modern automatic way.

Come back when the family gathers for dinner — take the deliciously cooked food from the oven of your automatic electric range, and serve it!
