WHAT'S COOKIN? Mrs. Lee Pettyjohn Is quite professional In her candy mak ing. Here is her recipe for pea nut brittle. She says to stretch it. The thinner it is the better it is. The object in flipping it over is to keep the peanuts from coming to the top. 3 cups white sugar VJtt cupsw hite corn syrup 1 cup water Yt cube butter Ja tap. salt 1 tsp. soda 1 tsp. vanilla 1 pound raw Spanish peanuts or 2 cups. Measure all ingredients and have them ready. Marble slab should be dry and room tem perature, oiled or buttered. Put the sugar, syrup, water in 3 qt. straight side kettle. Stir until dissolved and bring to boil and wash sides of kettle down. Put thermometer in batch. While it's cooking, mix salt, so da and vanilla together in a small dish and set aside to be used at the end of the cook. When the thermometer registers 240 degrees, add the peanuts. Do not stir again until the batch begins to boil. Do not touch the sides of the kettle above the surface of the batch as you stir. Cook and stir until the ther mometer reaches 320. Add the butter. Remove from the fire. Add the salt, soda, vanilla mix ture. Spread as thin as possi ble on the marble slab. Insert a spatula underneath the brit tle to let air between the can dy and the slab. Then if you want to be real professional, put on clean white gloves, and grasp the candy from the back side and flip it over and spread it again as thin as possible. If you don't have a marble slab, butter a cooky sheet and set over another cooky sheet filled with ice cubes covered with a towel. To stretch it, the candy may be transferred to a counter top.

Farm Credit Bank Sets Record in Loans The Federal Intermediate Credit Bank of Spokane reports a new high of loans outstand ing of more than $405 million through its Production Credit As sociations, . according to Wm. F. Barratt, president of the Bank. "It took over 35 years from March, 1923 through June, 1958 to achieve our first $100 mil lion mark," Mr. Barratt pointed out, "and that was the toughest one. Eight years later by May, 1966 the $200 million milepost was reached. Only three years were required to reach the $300 million, on June 30, 1969 . . . and the jump to $400 million took just 13 months. Mr. Barratt attributed the new high level of loan volume to several factors: An increase in the size of many agricultural operations, which requires more operating capital, and increas ing pressure of high costs and inflation.

The law is the Plant Variety Protection Act which became ef fective about Jan. 1.

BY KLb VAULI INW J To Have 'Copyrights' U. S. Department of Agriculture The new legislation allows de velopers of new varieties repro duced by seeds to apply for pat ent-type certificates or "copy rights," Brewer explains. Plant developers working with variet ies reproduced by budding or grafting already enjoyed such protection under the U. S. Pat ent Office. Becase the protection offered the developer under the act will last for 17 years, it is expected to stimulate even greater re search efforts within private in dustry, the specialist said.
