'Econo-Eating' By MOVIE STRODE Oregon State University Extension Home Economist Potatoes, like many items in the store, come in a variety of forms. You can buy thero fresh, frozen, dried, in other foods such as soups or main dishes, or as snacks. Generally, the more done to make a product ready-to-eat or more convenient, the more it costs. Consider the potato. Fresh potatoes may sell for as little as eights cents and as much as 33 cents a pound, depending upon the time of year, grade and size of con tainer. Loose no. one grade fresh potatoes are most ex pensive and no. two spuds sold in 50 lb. bags, the least expen sive. French fries or other frozen products may cost 60 cents or more per pound. Potato chips have jumped to about $2.40 a pound due more to the cost of cooking oil and handling than to the cost of potatoes. If you decide to do some of the work yourself, you need to look at the cost of the addi tional ingredients at home. uixunow KunwBcwi a too FLAIR ut - aH wim a a a ond dramatic atcnad ANSO-IV ond damme S S J Q C 14' Mautnul Reg 18 v 1 A I ? News lone and Lexington resi dents needing a ride to Hep pner on Wednesdays are ask ed to call Dot Halvorsen, 422-7143. to make arrange ments. Seniors attending the noon meal at the mealsite are not charged for transportation. For those over 60 who do not attend, the cost is 75 cents round trip. Cost for commut ers under 60 is $1.50. Heppner seniors needing a ride to the mealsite should call Mary Nikander, 676-5571. to make arrangements. For instance, you can make French fries at home, but the cost of the oil to cook them and the cost of the appropriate appliance may make them cost more than the 60 cents in the store. When comparing fresh to preserved vegetables, you need to consider storage and use. If you typically throw away a fourth of a bag then the potatoes you fix are more expensive. Sometimes a smaller bag, even at more cost per pound, is cheaper after all. Another grocery item you might look at is breakfast cereal. Regular or quick oat meal costs about 70 cents a pound, while instant flavored oatmeal costs $1.70 to $2.22 per pound two or three times as much. You have to be an alert shopper, too, because package sizes look the same and cost the same; the difference is in the weight. Granola, a ready-to-eat cereal usually with oatmeal as a main ingredient, can cost as much as SI. 91 per pound. You might make your own granola or serve oatmeal for breakfast as a more economical choice. You can find bargains at the meat counter if you're willing to do part of the work. Cut-up chicken often costs 10 cents more per pound, so learning the technique for cutting your own can be useful. If there is a sale on whole chickens, you can cut up several and make your own packages of thighs 'regularly $1.78), breasts (regularly $2.38) and drum sticks (regularly $1.68), using the less meaty pieces for soups or casseroles. If you already know how to cut up chicken, then try cut ting up turkey. It's basically the same process. Thaw, the turkey in its original container in the refrigerator rather than on the counter. It takes about two or three days to thaw, depending on the size of the bird. The wrapper usually gives you a good idea of the time needed. After the turkey is cut-up, you can divide it into meal size pieces and re-freeze it. It will be safe as long as you have thawed it in the refrigerator and cut it quickly. Don't leave the meat on the counter after finishing. Turkey is usually a special bargain now because of Thanksgiving promotions.

Scarbor- two: one for the holiday and one to cut up for a variety of meals later. Beans and rice are more economical if you buy the less processed forms. Beans cost 15 cents per cup when you soak and cook your own. Canned, they cost about 48 cents per cup. Plain rice costs around 60 cents, instant rice costs $1.47 and flavored rice, $1.57 or more per pound.
