That's the sug gestion from th Agri-Bimines Council, which notes that 570. 000 Americans succumb from coronary diseases each year. By reducing the amount of saturated fats in the diet ana turning to bread and cereal foods as a primary source of needed calories, the chance of a heart attack is lessened. Until recently, the American Heart Association advised house wives that most breads and cakes were taboo, implying that they were carriers of large amounts of saturated fat Con tinued research has proved the fallacy of this theory, until to day the American Heart Assoc! ation concedes that bread may indeed be the "staff of life." This complete reversal by the American Heart Association is good news to Oregon house wives, bread lovers, and diet watchers alike. Besides being an excellent source of needed cal ories, wheat products are also bearers of protein, calcium, B vitamins and iron. It's also good news to Oregon's 7,500 wheat growers, who have been plagued with bad news and poor prices for the past sev eral years. Oregon's wheat crop is grown on 824,000 acres. This year's yield is expected to be 30.2 mil lion bushels. Eighty-three per cent of this $45 million crop Is grown east of the Cascades.

Under Oregon law, studded tires are legal between October 1 and May 31. The tires embedded with hard metal studs provide more trac tion on ice and snow during in clement weather conditions but only serve to "rough up" and increase pavement wear during the spring and summer. According to the Commission, removal is urged as soon as possible not only for the sake of the road surface but also to save wear and tear on the tires themselves. The Commission advised own ers to mark each tire position on the car as they are removed so the tires can be placed on the same wheel next fall. Studs wear at a slight angle which causes them to lay over to one side. Changing the location 01 the tire on the car may cause the holes to become enlarged and permit the studs to fly out SPECIAL SAVINGS FOR PRICES GOOD 7 to 10 P.M.
