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

New Beef Grade
Meats on Sale;
Values Listed
Thn onmiil foil fl-niif rf rrracc.
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.
Traffic Kills 305
During 1956 in State
Traffic accidents in Oregon
have killed 305 peopl? so far this
year. The count includes 36
deaths reported in September.
The nine-month death count Is
10 higher than for the same period
in 1955, according to the Oregon
Traffic Safety Commission.
Unless the toll slackens during
the remaining months of the
year, safety officials said the
final count could hit 430 deaths.
Last year, traffic accidents killed
414 people.
The month-by-month toll so far
this year: January, 28; February,
29; March, 28; April, 39; May,

Domestic Parity through Congress.
But President Eisenhower vetoed Domestic
Parity and substituted the soil bank.
The record shows Oregon farmers don't like
the soil bank. Less than 35 are participat

Wayne Morse will make the fight again In
the next Congress to give Oregon farmer
the plan they want.
