Christmas was once like Easter ; in that it was a movable feast, ; celebrated on a different date each ' year- St. Cyril, bishop of Jerusalem, is : responsible for establishment of 1 the universal date we celebrate today. In 337 A.D., with the per mission of Pope Junius 1, St. Cyril appointed a commission to deter mine, if possible, the precise date of Christ's nativity. The theologi ans of the Church finally agreed upon December 25, and since the year 354 this date has been celebrated. A wonderful old-timer, stuffed cabbage leaves or cabbage rolls whichever you prefer to call them, is better than ever in its brown-rich, oniony sauce made with canned condensed onion soup. A new inspiration is the tasty corned beef hash-chili sauce stuffing for the cabbage leaves. With the Hash V Cabbage Rolls, serve buttered canned peas, crunchy radishes, celery and spiced crabapples, salt sticks and peach pie with thick cream. Hash V Cabbage Rolls 4 large (or 8 medium size) Vi cup chili sauce cabbage leaves 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 can (1 lb.) corned beef hash 1 can condensed onion soup Cook cabbage leaves in enough water to cover until slightly tender, about 10 minutes; drain.

Put cabbage rolls in soup; cover and simmer until cabbage is tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Four servings.

McMURTRY 3 aft l $3 3 $3 -2) 2l Wheat, Feed Grain Surplusses Likely To Increase in '59 Wheat and feed grain surplus es appear likely to pile higher in the year ahead and will un doubtedly force drastic changes In farm programs, says an Ore gon state college marketing spec ialist Record carry-over of wheat, corn, sorghums, oats, and barley are in prospect for mid-1959, re ports Ray Teal, OSC extension seed marketing specialist Corn farmers in the 26 com mercial corn-growing states re cently voted in a new support program that lifts corn acreage restrictions for the first time since 1938. Teal says the nat ional average support price for 1959 crop will be about $1.12 to 51.15 a bushel. Minus acreage allotments, corn production could Increase great ly and put added pressure on other surplus feed grains. Teal says some farm groups are now discussing such "corrective" pro grams as "bushel allotments" rather than acreage allotments for feed grains of all kinds. Under a bushel allotment pro gram, a farmer could elect to plant more acres with less fer tilizer or fewer acres with more fertilizer as best suited his sit uation. Wheat surpluses, still on the increase, are also likely to force new programs during coming j congressional sessions, say agrl-1 cultural leaders. Wheat acreage permitted under the government support program may be reduc- j ed from the present 55 million- acre level, Teal reports. It may , also be required that land taken out of wheat production be placed under the conservation re-: serve. The two-price plan for wheat may again be considered. For 1959, however, there will be little change in the wheat program over 1958, the specialist explains. The national average support level announced last May was $1.81 a bushel, only 1 cent less than for the 1958 crop.
