FIELD CROPS LEAD IN CASH INCOME Field crops of Oregon continue to produce the biggest share of the cash income of Oregon farmers, according to a survey made by the Oregon State college extension ser vice of the average cash income from Oregon agriculture over a five- year period, 1924 to 1928. Out of an average cash income for these five years of $121,000,000 31 per cent was realized from cash crops with wheat still the leading one. Cash sales from animal pro duction, other than poultry and dai ry, were next in importance and were 24 per cent of the total. Hor ticultural products ranked third with from 17 to 18 per cent. The sale of dairy products, which has increased greatly in recent years, formed 16 per cent of the cash in come from 1924 to 1928. Poultry, another growing industry, forms from 7 to 8 per cent of the cash income. Five-sixths of Oregon's farm cash income over these five years was derived from the sale of the follow ing products: wheat, dairy products, sheep and wool, cattle and calves, eggs and chickens, hogs, apples, hay, hops, potatoes, pears, dried prunes, oats, cherries, strawberries and barley. The average "cash income" ' of $121,000,000 represents the amount of money actually received from sales after allowance was made for seed, feed, and food used on the farm. The average "farm value" of crops during the years from 1924 to 1928 was about $95,000,000 and of animals products over $67,000,000.

They seem so tender they just melt in one s mouth. They have often seemed luxurious due to the high cost of eggs but there is very little expense in making a sponge cake now. The total cost fo a ten-egg angel food cake, unfrosted, would probably amount to fifteen or six teen cents. But they have even greater value than the fact that they are economical and that is that they are an -excellent dessert for small children since they are not rich and are easily digested. Do you have any difficulty in mak ing sponge cakes? As in all cakes there are three places for error thus causing failure: the measuring, mix ing, and baking. But of the three faults I believe that the baking causes the most failures, and then the mixing. Can you make good omelets and have them stand up instead of look ing like a pancake? Did you real ize that a sponge cake is merely an omelet with flour to hold it up? The leavening air for sponge cakes is air from beating the eggs, thus great care must be taken' in adding the other ingredients to the egg in or der that the bubbles do not burst and allow the air to escape. Thus the flour and sugar should be folded "Now There Were Two Irishmen" . ; 1 ; v ' . Mi) I im ft t 4 ,y sA V I John D. Rockefeller, Sr., aged millionaire, regaling women golfers Jessie Firth, Mrs. 11. B. Rrmdlc, Diana I-isliwick and Nona Dixon with a pet yarn at the Women'i South Atlantis, Championship matche at Ormond Beach, Fla. in using what is called the "down-under-over" stroke. The following is the best method and recipe for angel food cake that I have ever used: Whites of 9 or 10 eggs should be a cupful. Measuring by the cup is more accurate fhan counting the number of eggs. Add one-fourth tea spoon salt to the eggs and beat until the eggs do not slide in the bowl. If beaten too stiff they become dry and do not make the cake as ten der as it may be. Add one teaspoon cream of tartar when the eggs are just frothy. Fold in one and one- third cups of sifted sugar, one table- spoonful at a time. Add one tea spoon vanilla and one of lemon or almond extract on the last table- spoonful of sugar because this helps to give the cake more flavor. Last fold in one sup of cake flour, a small amount at a time. Bake one hour at 275-325 degrees F. You may start to bake it in a cold oven or one set at 275 degrees The first fifteen minutes the cake should just begin to rise. The sec ond fifteen minutes the temperature should be 300 degrees F and the cake should continue to rise. Third fifteen minutes the temperature should be 325 degrees and the cake should brown slightly. The fourth fifteen minutes the cake should fin ish browning, rise to its fullest height and then settle in the pan. When you see that the cake has dropped slightly and shrinks from the sides of the pan, it is done. It will also spring to the touch when done. Turn the pan upside down on a cake rack but do not remove from the pan until it is cold, because the air bubbles around the edge of the cake will break, causing the cake to fall and not be as light as if not touched until cold. Angel food cakes are baked in ungreased pans in order that the sides of the pan will allow the cake to rise and stick to the sides, thus expanding and growing little. The grease lessens friction and keeps the dough from rising as high as it could otherwise. A chocolate angel food cake may be made from the same recipe by using three-fourths cup of flour and one-fourth cup of cocoa. Add one more egg white and omit the lemon flavoring. nesday afternoon.
