One-minute in toaster is all that is required before serving, A perfected frozen waffle, with the ingredients, taste and tex ture of the home-made kind, now has come to market. After months of research the makers, Snow Crop, discovered the method of producing a pal atable waffkwhich.wnwld be stored indefinitely in a freezing compartment, yet would pot re quire defrosting before being heated for serving. The waffles are made from a batter of flour, eggs, baking powder, milk, sugar, salt, va nilla and vegetable shortening that is cooked until 90 percent done. They are ready to serve, hot and crisp, after being heated in the toaster for one minute. They come in a box which has a "window" to show the six waffles packed, inside. The key to the attainment of the standard crisp texture after toasting rests in the moisture retained by these packages during the freezing process. This new waffle was tested on housewives in selected areas. Ac ceptance was 'immediate, one small neighborhood store, for example, selling ten cases in twenty days. Now, they are available nationally, ready to be stored in a freezing unit, then to be served after the minute's "warm-up" in a toaster , leton visitors last week.

Most farmers today let exper ience or "the neighbors" be their guide, figuring oftentimes that if a little fertilizer is good, more is better. That's -wasteful, say soil scientists like Dr. R. A. Pendleton of Oregon State col lege. Too frequently, this type ap plication fits neither soil nor growing crop need. Comparatively few farmers as yet make use of soil tests. The test, a chemical process, is a useful tool which allows a re search man to get a quick look at what is lacking in a farmer's ministrators conference in Salem the first of the week. Guests at the John Bryson home over the week end were Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Roundy and children of Kennewick and Earl Padberg of LaGrande. Mr. and Mrs. Tony Nichols and family of Odessa, Washington, were guests at the Ray Hiem bigner home over the week end.

Yet soil within a single field may vary considerably and this makes sampling difficult. It tends to reduce accuracy. What next? Test the crop it self, ' says Dr. Pendleton. This process is called tissue testing, and while more exacting, expon ents of this process are quicker to point out that some crops re quire more of certain plants than do others. So it will take time, years maybe, before enough in formation and experience is backed-logged to make fertilizer rate recommendations on many crops using this method. Tissue testing, in the mean time, must feel its way along, by trial and error. Some plant food deficiencies are readily apparent to the naked eye. You have given a shot of nitrogen to a sickly house plant, for example, and watched it re gain its normal, healthy green color. It would be simple if all plant food needs were as easily recognized. Unfortunately for the soil scientists, they are not. Far ahead of the tissue test ing parade are sugar cane grow ers in Hawaii. It is estimated that 50,000 acres of their crop are be ing grown and fertilized solely on the basis of tissue tests. It's a field which will expand con siderably In coming years, soil scientists believe. NEED Envelopes, Phone 882 A. E. Glidcwell OR A. R.

Copper for cables and wires.. .rubber for insula tion.. .aluminum for dials the telephone system re quires vast amounts of the materials which are also badly needed by other defense products. Naturally, since the telephone is such an important military and production tool, we get a quota of these materials. But to keep building a strong communications sys tem, we must conserve in every way we can. 3. Efficient telephone service, the kind that can pitch in and help all the nation in times of need, is the result of just such little things as using steel in stead of aluminum in a telephone dial. It's the result, also, of keeping the telephone system financially strong. Over the years, such financial strength has been the foundation of our ability to serve. It has en abled us to produce telephone service that's better than ever, produce more of it than ever, and sell it at prices which have gone up fai less than other things. 2. Scientists are at work on this task ... in telephone laboratories and manufacturing plants. By substituting other materials for critical ones, by discovering ways to use smaller amounts of the shortage items, they've come up with some amazing savings. It's estimated that, in 1951, the Bell System will save 2,700,000 pounds of rubber, 3,250,000 pounds of copper, 210,000 pounds of aluminum to name just three.
