New steel telephone wires need fewer poles V jf f ".Cis. , 7' ,1 Highways To Health Heppner Gazette Times, Heppner, Oregon, January 9, 1947-5 By ADA R. MAYNE Speeding telephone expansion in dozens of rural areas throughout the West, this new steel wire devel cped by Bell Telephone Laboratories is so strong the number of poles needed can be cut almost in half. Thii makes for far faster construction. 1 w Tla. -1 - i With other type wires, poles were generally placed ) ; less than 250 feet apart Now, with the new steel wire, ' h the distance can be extended to 400 feet or more. This is f- only one of many improvements now on the way. Rural users can expect fewer parties on their lines ; fewer rings . tot other parties and the replacement of crank type telo ( phones with modern instruments. It all adds up to better service for the people who supply food for you and the world. And it's still another exam-' pie of how, la our huge expansion program, we are working to provide a better, more far-reaching tele phone service than ever before ... so that the telephone steadily becomes more valuable to every user. An ever-improving telephone service at the least cost consistent with good wages and working conditions for our employees and a reasonable return to the thou sands of people who have Invested in the business.

Whether it be (jolden rich cheddar, sweet del icate-flavored cream cheese or pungent, soft-textured limburg cr, cheese is tops for taste, dig cstability, appearance and var iety. 'Cheese is milk In solid form. A pound of American cheese is equivalent to nearly five quarts of fresh whole milk in calories, calcium, phosphorous, vitamin A and high quality protein. Am ericans everywhere have been urged to eat more Cheese be cause it is a rich source of food elements that are vital to good health. Because European cheese im ports dwindled or stopped dur ing the war, our own production of foreign types of cheese jump ed from 85 to 100 percent, and now practically all the fine old cheeses of Europe are duplicat ed or rivaled in the United States. American cheese man ufacturers have done a superla tive job of duplicating many now - unattainable European cheese and perfecting others dis tinctly our own. This should prove grand news for the hos tess who relies on a cheese tray to boost her desserts into the gourmet class, -or to double as late evening snack with mugs of hot chocolate for guests or just family. But for Mom who is caught flat with nothing for lunch, and even less time to prepare it, we offer two quick delicious cheese recipes. Serve either dish with crisp buttered toast, apple sal ad, molasses cookies and milk The children will love both of them.
