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 ,

Tissue Testing
For Fertilizer
Use Progresses
Progress is being made to con
fine fertilizer application recom
mendations, to a more exact
science.
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,

bigner home over the week end.

gon State spent the week end

soil. 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.

1. 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.
