"A Crop for 200,000 Oregon Ac res," is the way E. R. Jackman, extension crops specialist at Ore gon State college, speaks of field corn. This description is now used as the title of a mimeographed booklet containing articles on corn growing in Oregon and published by the Loggers and Contractors Machinery company of Portland for free distribution. This booklet, which contains no advertising, is made up of seven articles originally prepared by members of the Oregon State col lege staff for use over the radio, together with two other articles, one by a farmer telling his exper iences in corn growing, and the other giving a brief history of corn growing in Oregon. "Can Oregon grow corn in com petition with the middle west" asks Mr. Jackman. "The answer is no, but we do not need to. .Washing ton and Oregon alone import 150, 000 tons of corn from the middle west states, so the price here is al ways far above the corn belt price. It would take roughly 200,000 acres to make up this deficit in corn." Jackman points out that in west ern Oregon at least a farmer can raise as many or more bushels of corn to the acre as wheat, and far more pounds of corn that of oats and at less cost of production per hundred pounds. He also shows that Oregon needs corn badly as a cultivated crop. Other college ar ticles in the publication are as fol lows: "The Place for Corn in Oregon Agriculture," by G. R. Hyslop, chief in farm crops; "Artificial Drying of Corn," by F. E. Price, agricul tural engineer; "Growing Corn in Oregon," by W. J. Gilmore, head of agricultural engineering depart ment; "Growing Oregon's Corn Crop," by E. N. Bressman, associate professor of farm crops; "The Use of Corn in Poultry Feeding," by A. G. Lunn, chief in poultry husband ry; "Oregon vs. the Corn Belt in Corn Production," by Clyde Walk er, assistant professor of agricul tural engineering. Other articles are "Our Experience in Growing Corn," by R. V. Stockton, Sheri dan; and, "Geographic Location of Corn Growing in Oregon," by C. I. ' Sersanous, Portland. Requests for this booklet should be sent direct to the Portland firm. IONE (Continued from First Page.)

Oregon Art Course Again Receives Carnegie Award University of Oregon, Eugene Jan. 13. The University of Oregon in the west and Harvard university in the east have again been chosen as summer session teacher training centers in art by the Carnegie Cor poration and the American Insti tute of Architects, it is annuonced by Dr. Arnold Bennett Hall, presi dent of the University. The grant, which is used both for scholarships and for providing instruction and material, has also been increased for Oregon from $5,000 for the ses sion to $7,500. Scholarships will be given by the Carnegie Corporation to a large number of college instructors in art and to others in this field, and these will tend to build up the graduate school and further improve the quality of students, Dr. Hall points out ON OREGON FARMS Hood River Indications that the famous Hood River apples may In the not distant future give place to pears as a major crop of the coun ty are found in summaries of an orchard census begun in 1930 by County Agent A. L. Marble. To date 408 farms have been covered, and a heavy trend toward pears has been found. Mr. Marble be lieves that pear shipments may ex ceed apples within a few years. Cherry planting has shown the greatest percentage increase. Canyon City Farmers of the Prairie City district seem to be gradually shifting from Victory oats to the Markton variety. Vic tory oats have given exceedingly good yields, but during the past two years have been late in ma turing, and it is hoped that the Markton variety will take care of this deficiency.

A ' little boy was looking out of the window at the starlit heavens pondering, perhaps, on the great world beyond. "Mamma," he said, suddenly, "will I go to heaven some day?" "Yes, dear, if you are good." "And will you be there?" "I hope so, and Papa, too," she added. The little boy shook his head pos itively. "No,' he said, "Papa won't be there; he couldn't leave the store." And the great tragedy of this day is that there are thousands of fine men and women who are so engrossed with the one thing they are doing, that they think they are TOO BUSY for other things. They have no time for Church or home, or to think about heaven. They cannot "leave the store." There Is the business man so wrapped up In his business and his fraternal organizations that he cannot afford time for anything else. There is the woman who is so busy with her social and other material engagements that she has no time for the things that lead toward heaven. Yes, there are thousands of men and women who are so busy with this or that par ticular thing that they think they have no time for other things. Robert Burdette said: "One of the great curses of our present day is that everybody is too busy to get off on one side, away from the crowd, for awhile, and get acquaint ed with yourself. And it might be added, too busy to get acquaint ed with anyone else. So busy, as Solomon puts it, that they scarcely see sleep day or night. If you want to know the meaning of life and the real joy of living, do not be so busy with the material things of life that you neglect the finer, the better things of life of the spiritual man. Arrange your affairs so you can leave the store at any time At the close of the Communion Service next Lord's Day morning, will be held the Baptismal Service for those who have recently made the Good Confession.

MEALS AT ALL HOURS ELKHORN RESTAURANT ED CHINN, Prop. 87 Studens Earn Way; Urged to Stay in "School University of Oregon, Eugene, Jan. 13. Although jobs of any sort are as hard for students to And as they are for others, a total of 87.5 percent of men and women attend ing the University of Oregon are wholly or partially self-supporting, statistics issued by Earl M. Pallett registrar, show. Of the nearly 3,- 000 students on the campus at Eu gene, 797, or 37 percent are wholly self-supporting. About one-third of this number are women. In the present unemployment sit uation it is highly desirable that young men and women stay in school, educators point out, rather than seek full time employment In this way, more work will be available for others, and the stu dents will also be benefitted by add ed education. Student "jobs" range from wash ing dishes in sorority houses to clerking and even acting as expert accountants for business firms. Employment is controlled by a cen tral agency on the campus, which seeks to place competent students in the various positions. Foxy Farmer Augments Wheatraising With Foxes Dwight Misner of lone has taken a new departure in conducting a Morrow county wheat ranch which adds to his reputation of doing the unusual. Once a traveling sales man, he surprised his friends by becoming a farmer, and once he became addicted to scratching the dirt he ever applied latest methods. Thus deserving the name of fox, it now comes not so much-as a sur prise to his friends, that Mr. Mis ner should choose company of his kind. His latest departure is the addition of seven silver foxes to his north lone whedit holdinges, including 5 females and 2 dogs. RELIEF CORPS INSTALLS.

FALMITEB Home Economics Instructor Heppner High School IIIUIIIIIIIIIIIItllltlllllllllllimilMHHIMHItNmillllllllllllrt Using the Can Opener. The modern cook has often and mercilessly been ridiculed for an extensive use of the can opener. But the pendulum of knowledge is swinging back and proves that the housewife has been wise after all. Did you ever stop to think what your winter menu would be like if there were no canned foods? Our forefathers contented their appe tites with quantities of corn and wheat bread, molasses, salt meats and sometmies potatoes, a diet which was ill-balanced and very monotonous, calling for great doses of sassafras tea or molasses and sulfur in the spring. Of course, we would not be so destitute for fresh foods as they due to the improved methods of refrigeration, dehydra tion and winter gardening with rapid transportation. There has been some- question about the food value of canned foods in comparison to fresh. Ex periments were carried on for a year by eminent nutrition research workers and it was found that an all-canned diet is adequate to maintain good health. The food value of canned foods is equal to that of the same foods prepared at home. The food is either hot when put into the can THIS EXPLAINS OUR VALUES Sugar b ythe sack is cheaper than by the pound, and goceries by the carload are cheap er than by the case. . . .The point we wish to make is that, as membes of the great Red & White cooperative group we enjoy the benefits of a buying power that is unsurpassed, andj that is reflected in all our offerings to you.

When the food it hot, the cans are sealed and sterilized by heat This preheating of canned foods is important because it drives most of the oxygen from the cans. This helps to preserve th valuable Vit amin C. content of the food. Dr. E. V. McCollum of Johns Hopkins university Bays that the major fac tor in the destruction of vitamin C during cooking is oxidation. It has been shown that in canning, after a certain amount of prelim inary destruction, subsequent heat ings has very little effect in fur ther destruction. The vitamin C content of canned fruits and veg etables appears to be much greater than that of fresh foods "which are cooked in the usual manner. Another Idea about canned foods that has been disproved is that It is harmful to leave foods in an open can. This is not true. In general, foods remain in better condition until eaten if the unused portion is left in the can. Spoilage results from exposure to dust, air, and bac teria with which any dish may be covered. There is nothing about the can that will contribute to spoilage. The tarnish on the in side of cans in which foods are packed is due to a thin coating of tin sulfide and is harmless. The higher the protein content of foods the more of it is formed. And so the next time someone makes fun of you for using your efficient can opener, you can come back with a good argument!
