Baking Contest Interest Spreads Fame of the Oregon Wheat Growers League's Cake Baking contest, a top feature at annual conventions in Pendleton and Portland, is reaching into areas of Oregon where wheat from an agricultural standpoint is al most non-existent, says Mrs. L. E. (Marguerite) Kaseberg, Wasco, chairman of the League"s Do mestic Wheat Utilization Com mittee. She said she had received inquiries about the contest from Portland and Oregon City women. An editorial in a Portland newspaper produced inquiri e s about the cake baking contest trom its readers. The time has arrived, says Mrs. Kaseberg, when her committee must consider the possibility ol having the cake baking contest A wide variety of Northwest fruits are picked, processed and packed at their fla vorful best. Then they are rushed to refrig erator cars where constant temperatures are maintained while they are speeded to Eastern markets. Electronically controlled equipment, com munications and data processing, super vised by skilled employees, monitor each shipment.

If the "wheat story" can be told in newspapers and via radio and television in non-wheat growing areas, the vital importance of wheat to Oregon's economy will be more completely realized.
