New Bulletin Tells
How to Freeze Meats
The wrapping material used
and the method of wrapping are
especially important in the pre
paration of meat for the freezer,
states a new Oregon State college
extension bulletin prepared by
the food technology department.
The publication, "Freezing
Meat, Poultry, Fish, Seafoods,
and Game," stresses that using
poor packaging materials can re
sult In loss of 10 percent gross
weight of meat being frozen.
Selecting high-quality products
to use for freezing is another im

Our program included soil building thru

Tips are outlined too on cooking

Visiting his irrigated ranch
last week, I found he had just
completed plowing up 1950 and
1951 seedings of Intermediate

rows for seed production, they
still necessitated the need for
plowing with one bottom plow

roots for the three plow tractor
