Hotter e Cream.
Ice cream with a smooth, vel
vety texture can be produced most
easily by the use of a well-sweetened
cream mixture. Mixture
rich in fat whip readily and aiv
easily kept firm, but If too heav
ily sweetened are difficult to
freeze, to harden, and to keep
firm. Whole milk will not giv"
the smooth texture secured by
using cream, but if sufficient
cream i.s not available, the addi
tion of a little gelatin will im
prove the texture, particularly if
the Ice cream is to be hardencil
or j acked before serving. '
Csing only sound fruits ami
vegetables is a big step toward
success in home canning. Th
fresher the material to be canned,
the stronger are the chances for
keeping, if properly handled. "An
hour from garden to can" Is U
good rule to follow.
One way to preserve the nutri
tive value of a vegetable is to
bake II in its skin, ami cat the
skin. 1 rish potatoes, sweet pota
toes and squash are often baked,
and cabbage, onions, carrots and
other vegetables may be prepared
in this way. Steaming vegetables
also conserves their food value.

NOW OWN OREGON LIFE
w-J'-.V.n'n On July 12, 1929, tlie policyholders of the Oregon Life
Insurance Company voted to take over all the stock of the
coinpany. ..and to adopt the new name Oregon Mutual
Life Insurance Company. This means that the policyholders now have
a direct voice in the affairs of the company and all profits earned belong to
them.' No dividends will be distributed to anyone except policyholders,' be
cause the policyholders will be the sole owners of the company. Present and future
policyholders will enjoy Jife-insurance protection at a ,'ow net cost, because .'
the company itself belongs to them and they will share in its earnings. JThc
generous attitude on the part of the former stockholders is deserving of
highest commendation. Twenty-three years ago these men started the Oregon
Life Insurance Company with their own capital, and helped it get, a sound ,
start and grow into a prosperous institution. Now that their money is no ' ':'
longer needed, they have very graciously withdrawn it on the basis of their
original investment, leaving the entire earnings of the future to the policy
holders themselves. IJTluis an old company adopts a new name ... henceforth
the Oregon Life Insurance Company will be known as the Oregon Mutual
Life Insurance Compa.n1. a company of the policyholders, by the policy
holders, and r the policyholders. , , ' , '
