MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1939. PAGE SEVEN TAKES UPTURN ON A Grand Recipe for Turkey Stuffing Industrial Payroll Shows Big Increase Agriculture Continues In Doldrum. By Paul W. Harvey, Jr. Salem, Dec. 8. (P) Maybe the European war has some thing to do with it and maybe it hasn't but at least business in Oregon picked up fast when the war appeared inevitable. Oregon's industrial payroll in October was $15,938,573, a gain of Sl,764,000 over October, 1938. The payroll for the four months ended November 1 to taled $57,563,863, an increase of about $4,000,000 over the sim ilar period of 1938. Members of the state indus trial accident commission, who compile the figures, think the war might have given Oregon's business a tonic, but they be lieve it would have picked up anyway. Pay Average Same The manufacturing industries, including logging and sawmill operations, had an October pay roll of $6,778,343, an increase of $500,000 over that of Octo ber, 1938. The construction in dustries had the biggest per centage of gain, increasing from $1,493,867 to $2,159,685. The average daily wage for all industries was $4.35, same as a year ago. The average daily wage by industries included manufacturing $4.65, construc tion $5.38, mining and quarry ing $5.38, transportation and public utilities $4.86 and agri culture $2.20, lowest of all in dustries. The only industry which failed to improve was agricul ture, its October payroll drop ping from $989,832 to $985,211. Part of this was caused by the loss of British empire apple markets. The average daily ag ricultural wage in October was down 11 cents from 1938. Lumbering still is the state's most dangerous industry. Out of a total of 39 persons killed in hazardous occupations in the state during the four months ended November 1, 16 were log gers and six worked in saw mills. Dependents of those kill ed in the logging industry re ceived $95,000 in benefits. T THE holiday season Is In full swing and once again the royal bird begins to strut his way to the finest tables of America. Home makers everywhere are as busy as can be planning the rest of the din ner to measure up to this proud young bird. Hand In hand, with the turkey and Just as traditional Is the stuffing. There must be hundreds ot dHgerent stuffings, but so few good ones. One that has everything good flavor. nourishment, llufly light texture and takes only a minimum of time and effort to prepare is made ot crisp Shredded Wheat, fluffy rice, and chopped, cooked giblets. Here's the recipe for this dell clous stuffing and It's our guess that you'll be using it not only for the holiday turkey, but tor a little fat hen, a shoulder of veal, or a boned leg ot lamb for Sunday dinner.

Dec. 8. iP) The offer of the Pacific Gas and Electric company to buy Shasta dam power from the California central valley project drew the comment from Secretary Ickcs today that the utility "doesn't have a chance" of getting any except possibly some of the ex cess energy produced by the plant. The secretary, under whose direction the reclamation bu reau is building the $170,000,000 water conservation project, added at his press conference that most of the output of the Shasta plant would be absorbed by public bodies, including mu nicipalities and water districts. "And," he continued, "I doubt if there will be much excess to sell." Germans will be brought west ward, chiefly from Woyn (Vol hynia), eastern Polish province annexed by Russia. Possibly 500,000 Ukrainians and others in former Poland will be shifted into territories under Russian control, Germans said. SOCE REGISTRY may now preregister, according to Registrar Marshall E.

' Late enrollees for the winter term will be charged a late reg istration fee. guardsmen in the Portland area who will conclude their seven days' extra training at the Pa cific International Livestock ex position grounds in Portland. Here's a good way to shut off after dinner speakers. At the Oregon Motor associa tion's banquet In Portland last night honoring Highway Com mission Chairman Henry F. Ca bell for his recent election as president of the American Asso ciation of State Highway Offic ials, there was a traffic light at the head table. Until the speakers reached their time limit, the light was green. Then the toastmaster changed it to red. Few governors have taken the .interest that Governor Sprague has taken in the Oregon national guard. A few weeks ago he in spected Willamette valley guardsmen training in their own armories, becoming the first governor to do so. This week-end he expects to have a meal with the 1,700 State police were lucky this week, getting into two shooting scrapes near Medford and Al bany without getting shot them selves. They killed two men. "I guess it's a good thing that we're teaching 'em how to shoot straight," H. G. Maison, deputy state police superintendent, said. Capitol sidelights: Imagine the embarrassment of the national guard colonel who got up in the middle of the night in the pouring rain and a . sentry, a new recruit, stopped him. The colonel argued with the sentry, who had been given orders to lot no nnn nnss. Whereurjon the sentry marched the colonel into the guardhouse at bayonet point. . . . Criticizing accounting mem ods of state institutions, Budget Director David Eccles said "It is so bad at the state blind school that I expected to see old Scrooge sitting high on a stool keeping the accounts."
