Chaff With Your Home Agent 'Magic with Mixes' Extension Study Topic Br ESTHER KIBMU Each homemaker has to con sldiT her family's preference In relation to her budget, time and energy and decide whether sh should use a "Mix" or whether she should start from scratch That's the basic reasoning of the Dceemoer extension Unit lea son. "Magic With Mixes." The project lesson U an attempt to suggest tne many ways a home maker can use the convenience food to provide variety In bak lng goods tor her family and still plve to herseii a reeling of ere atlve cooking. We held project leader train lng on "Mixes" In Board man on November 15th at the Arnold Hoffman home for Irrlgon and Boardman leaders; and In Hepp ner at the Fair Annex on No vember 21 for the leaders of Heppnor, Rhea Creek, Lena, lone, and line City. We used biscuit mix, muffin mix, refrigerated biscuits, ginger bread, hot roll mix, cake mix, nd brownie mix for this lesson. You should have been In on the tasting bee afterwards! From the biscuit mix we dem onstrated a holiday yeast bread and orange nut bread and cheese nut bread rrom a muffin mix Fruit bars from gingerbread were also displayed. Devils food cake mix was used as the foundation of mint cookies and a brownie mix for mincemeat brownies and a brownie pie. The many variations of the re frigerated biscuits was shown in a bubble loaf coffee cake, cara way bread sticks, and a garlic ring. All of these ideas will prove helpful for the holiday season as well at for the whole year.

Those who have used them In the past as a guide for as sembling their Income tax report find them quite useful. Talking about Income tax, we hoH that you have kept a good set of records this year. Good records are important if you arc going to answer such questions as how did I do mis year win a particular farm enterprise; did I make a profit or suffer a lo.s; Is mv net worth greater or small er than last year; will I pay more taxes than I needed to? You can't really answer these and many other Important questions unless you keep adequate records. Good tecord keeping nMvi not be a difficult or time consuming chore. With a copy of the good record books which are now available irom many sources it taKes oniy a icw minutes a dav entering daily figures. This is a good time to plan for keeping good recorus in 19C2. Income taxes are paid only once a year but tax manage ment Is a year around Job. There still may be time 10 mane soiuj adjustments In income expenses this year. Thre is a handv bulletin that those attending the tarm fiian agement Shortcourse last year IiUpH it is entitled. "Cut the Farm Costs That Cut The Farm Profits." It discusses a good many of the basic problems and their solutions concerning farm management. There is a wra management check list which such Questions as "Am i nroducine crops effic iently?"

THE (GENERAL! TIRtf KRAFT TOUH WINTER TIRE HEAD QUARTERS" FORD'S TIRE Even though the agricultural picture In Morrow county was brightened with the Thank giving Day week end of rain and snow here are some of the tan gible reasons we think that farm ers should consider In making up their minds for voluntary par ticipation In the acreage diver sion program: (1) It Is finan cially attractive. Producers will get higher rates of payment for diverting more than the mini mum acreage under both the wheat and barley programs. The oroerams are not Identical and rates of payment differ, but the maximum diversion earn suo stantial payments for cooperators under both programs. (2) It can be considered a lorm or income protection. With the dry fall A detailed program of the Eleventh Stockman's Shortcourie, which will be held on the cam pus of Washington Slate Uni versity the week of UtHvmber 11, ha Iteen received at thl office. This is the hortcoure that ha proved so popular with many Morrow county livestock men. This year's program looks even hotter than some earlier 'lie There are choices of clan that deal with livestock, crops, farm I buildings, range Improvement Insect control. Income taxes, farm credit and many, many either topics. This year, in addlt ion 10 ine general session, mere is a sH-ctal agricultural public relations section as well as stud managers section. The con densed course will be of special interest to farm and ranch own ers, managers, tormans and herdsmen, county agents, 4 II leaders, vocational ag instructors young men and women who have not attended college, as well as college graduates as a refresher course.

Program for the diy arranged by Klher Klrml and Joe lUv. The Wool Growers Association meeting in Portland last week sounded a note of pessimism of the Industry today, ihe organi zatlon, one of the oldest In the state, was holding their both an nual meeting. Attendance was low and memberships have drop ped off to the point where there Is concern in keeping the organi zatlon active. While many agri cultural commodities have drop ped in price while the cost of producing has continued to go up there are lew tnai we Know of that have been quite so bad as the sheep industry. Peniose Metcalfe, president. National Wool Growers Association, San Diego, Texas, pointed out that this was the time of organized crouos and that agriculture as well as industry must be strong ly organized to survive, w nue ne proiecuon. k urged the Oregon Association to there Is a lot of wheat yet to be ' arxt irt , rmnin ap. tlve he did admit that imiigs seeded and much that was seed ed earlier came up quite spotted. With these conditions prevailing this might be good insurance. Should a participating farmer suffer Dartial or total loss of his crop due to drought, Insects, hail, flood or other hazards of nature he will still receive his payment for diverted acres. (3) He gets a partial payment In advance. Growers who divert acreage -production of wheat and barley un der the 1962 programs may re ceive advanced payments at the time of sien-up.
