Meets the War Although Junior may insist it's still spinach, the OPA has extended price control to the green vegetable made famous by Popeye. Besides spinach, six other fresh vegetables have been brought into the price control fold by the OPA. This is particularly good news to Mrs. Am erica now that canned vegetables are rationed, and she will be shop ping for fresh vegetables to make ration stamps go as far as possible. According to the OPA, Mrs. Amer ica should not pay more for lettuce and sninach than the top price charged by her grocer from Feb. 20 through Feb. 24, and cabbage, car rc ts, m.sp beans, peas and toma toes also have been brought under control at the top prices charged by the individual merchant from Feb. 20 through Feb. 24. And here are tips on the proper storage of vegetables to prevent food waste. Exports of the bureau of home economics of the depart ment of agriulture recommend that, raw salad vegetables should be washed, drained and stored in cov ered vegetable pan in a cold place. Cooking greens should be washed, drained and piled loosely in cov ered vegetable pan or water proof bag and kept cold. Beans, peas and corn should be kept cold and pre ferably in the pod or husk until ready for use. Vegetables in the cabbage family should be left un cut, cold and not too dry. Onions should be stored dry, cool and dark, but avoid freezing. a Mr. America can keep his shirt cn, and he may , even save a few cents on it, thanks to the OPA. For if the shirt has been made ac cording to the WPB simplification order, the OPA decreed that sav ings in manufacturing costs should Mrs. H. O. Ely returned to her home at Morgan Friday after spend ing some time at Heppner under medical care. Mr. and Mrs. Alex Thompson who have been on the Fisk ranch have left for Klamath Falls.

Mrs. Echo Palmateer had as her guest last webk Mr. and Mrs. Sim Heiple and son of Portland Mrs. Heiple is Mrs. Palmateer's niece. be passed on to consumers. This price regulation also applies to boys shirts and to pajamas for men and boys. Each garment made in accordance with the WPB order must be labeled with the symbol "R" for reduction. That's how the shopper can be sure it's made in accordance with WPB simplifica tion ordbrs. a The click of needles knitting sweaters and sox for military needs will continue to be heard despite the fact f that steel cannot be used in the manufacture of knitting needles. Plasics and other non-me-talic materials are used for larger sized knitting needles. The ban of steel has hit the crochet hook too. Mrs. America will be learning long-range planning as far as the use of sugar is concerned. When sugar stamp No. 12 becomes valid on March 16, it will be good for five pounds of sugar, however, it must last until the first of June. Stamp No. 11, good for three pounds, is valid until March 16. Mrs. America's purchases of glass utensils have tripled since Pearl Harbor, and now that metal short ages have invaded the kitchen many more articles of glass have appeared as replacements. A deep dish pie plate with a fluted edge is a popular number in glass and so is a versatile salad bowl which can be used for mixing, baking and serving. Perhaps a glass topped table sounds dangerous for the kit chen but not if it is a heat resis tant glass which is strong. And here's a fashion note . . . although two-color shoes are pro hibited by the WPB simplification order, two-texture shoes are per mitted. So, leathers of two differ ent kinds may be used together and combiinations of leather and fabric are approved if they are the same approved color. Speaking of shoes, rest assured that no child will need to go with out proper fitting footwear under shoe rationing, actually, the ration for men is liberal ,and so father's stamp could be used to buy addi tional shoes for Junior. uBt if a child needs a pair of shoes and there is no stamp number 17 avail able in the family to buy shoes for him, parents may apply to the local war price and ration board for a shoe certificate. CHURCH PROPERTY TO BE IMPROVED Improvement of the church pro perty was authorized at the an nual meeting f the lone Church of Christ, held in the parlors of the Congregational church Monday evening.

That also goes for waste grease. iThe government says that if every single one of us housewives in the United States were to save a table spoon of waste fat every day for four days, it would produce glyc erine to make 13,000,000 pounds of gunpowder. Mrs. Eiene But before turning in waste fat and this is on Uncle Sam's say so use as much as you can in the E reparation of foods.
