Jobless rate for Morrow shows decline Morrow County's official unemployment rate for Au gust was 3.9 per cent down from July's figure of 6.1 per cent.

The total of employed per sons numbered 6,430 with the trade category up by 100 and no change in manufacturing. The figures do not reflect the chronically unemployed.

Game tips for homemakers Deer season opens Septem ber 29, and many home makers are already wonder ing how to make good use of the game meat. Extension Home Economist Molly Saul reports that ell Extension offices have a good supply of three helpful game bulletins: EB 819, Boning Out Your Deer; EB 800, Treats with Venison; and EB 790, Game Foods. According to Saul, the flavor and texture of game meat depends primarily on how the animal was handled after the kill. The Extension bulletins explain in detail how to care for the game animal from the time it is shot until the time it appears on the table. A brochure on the making of sausage and jerky from game meat is also available. This was prepared by Gus Mark graf, Extension agent in Baker County. In addition, Extension offices have a. supply of recipe sheets which include a variety of ways to utilize game meat.
