Giving a new twist to her newest creation, Ann Pillsbury has given
the old flavored spice cake a modern glamor role. Here's how she helps
you prepare easily this tasty, different looking, party cake.
Bake Spice Cake Mix as directed on package in two 8 or 9-inch layers.
Cool. Whip 2 cups (1 pint) whipping cream with rotary beater until
stiff. Blend in M cup sugar and I teaspoons vanilla with a few addi
tional turns of the beater. Divide each cooled cake layer into two layers,
making four layers in all. Do this by placing heavy sewing thread half
way up side of cake layer. Gently pull thread back and forth in sawing
motion to cut through cake.
Spread top of each layer with one-fourth of the whipped cream. Then
stack layers and decorate top with slivered pecans or other nuts if
desired.
Over-Irrigation Bad
For Most Farm Land,
Specialist Says
Most farmers use too much
water when irrigating rather than
too little, says Marvin Shearer,
extension irrigation specialist at
Oregon State college.
Shearer, citing data gathered
in recent tests of moisture con
tent in 10 counties, explains this
heavy trend to use too much ir
rigation water is resulting in
losses of nutrients as well as
extra irrigation expenses.
The specialist is coordinating a
program to determine the mois
ture content of soils on 48 Willa
mette valley farms through the
use of special equipment. A
series of gypsum blocks contain
ing electrodes are buried in the
soil every six inches to a depth of
42 inches with a master plug re
maining above the ground. Later
the series of blocks are plugged
into a meter that indicates the
moisture content at various
depths.
In addition to giving the far-
mer an accurate determination of
the moisture content of the soil
where the blocks have been
placed, the tests also give him
a basis for checking moisture
conditions of other fields on his
farm by comparing soil samples
taken b soil augers, says Shearer.
The prgram covers 10 counties'
in which 1000 soil moisture blocks'
have been installed in fields of
48 farms and includes 14 different
crops, reports the specialist. I
Included in the program is aj
special 25-farm project in Mult-'

sneep showed up in sales at Ore
gon State college's livestock

McKenzie. animal husbandry de
partment head, says plans are to
make the auction an annual af
fair.

412 for 19 Hereford cattle and 150
sheep will be used by the college
for further animal research.
The highest of five registered
yearling Hereford bulls sold for
$1200 to the Buck and Doe Ranch,
Deer Lodge, Mont. He was OSC
Lionheart B-28 who showed a
rate of gain of 3.28 pounds a day.
The. five bulls averaged $691.

chase of $2160 for seven cows.

ing importance to livestock pro
ducers.
