Hsppfur Gazette Times, Thursday, Octobtr 18, 1956 Better Wheat Eyed In OSC Experiments On Milling Quality Helping plant scientists select and develop new wheat varieties with superior milling qualities 19 the goal of a four-year study under way at the Oregon State college agricultural experiment station. The study Includes work on a quick, Inexpensive way to check milling quality of wheat. Plant scientists need some way to easily determine mining qual ities are used as parent stock, according to Wilson Faote, OSC agronomist heading up the study. Present methods of determining milling quality require a fairly large amount of wheat, and are expensive and time consuming to run. Foote reports that studies at the USDA western utilization lab oratory, Albany, Cal., have Indi cated that differences in milling quality between wheat varieties may be predicted by the differ encea In the amount of pento san a chemical compound found in wheat kernels that can be extracted from wheat kernels with an acid. Following this lead, the pre sent study will try to simplify the acid extracting process and work out a simple method for routine examination of a large numbers of samples. The new method will be used to check the acid-extractable pentosan con tent of a large number of wheat varieties, and the pentosan values obtained will then be compared to the actual milling qualities or these varieties to establish whether pentosan content actual ly does Indicate milling quality. About 100 spring wheat vari eties were grown near Pendleton this year and will be checked this winter, Foote says. And over 200 winter wheat varieties have been made between good and poor COMING to the stage of the Star Theater Oct. 27, SATURDAY ONLY, In addition to the regu lar program, THE RHYTHM KINGS with 30 minutes of Western tunes.

I t 11c annual lan j.ivvv ui ,ut fat cattle from the Oregon range brings with it a new meat grade USDA Standard that offers food shoppers a key to good qual ity lean beef. W. Y. Fowler, Oregon State col lege livestock marketing special ist, says the new grade has less fat than found on more highly finished animals but has a mild flavor and may be quite tender. Prior to establishment of the new grade, much of the young grass-fat beef was graded USDA Commercial, and was lumped into the same class as beef from older animals that failed to make "good" grade. A near-record supply of the grass-fat cattle that will intro duce the new grade can provide several advantages to food buy ers, according to Zelma Relgle, OSC consumer marketing spe cialist. Lean beef is higher in protein, minerals and B vitamins than beef with fat. More meat and nutrients for the money are provided in the lower beef grade. These ways to stretch meat In to tempting economical dishes are suggested by the specialist. Stuff a flank steak with spicy bread dressing, or combine ground beef with cheese and macaroni for an oven dish meal. One pound of meat will , serve 3to 4 persons. Three servings can be gleaned from every pound of boneless chuck, bottom round steak and shoulder roast, all good stew meats. Meat goes further when it's combined with vegetables, noodles or rice and simmered into savory stews. Miss Reigle recommends that all cuts of lean beef be cooked at low temperatures. Once cuts are lightly browned in the pan, add small amout of moisture, cover pan tightly, and cook slowly, she advises.
