i Mrs. Kefauver Would Have Time of Life as White House Resident Editor's note: Thl li lh sec ond of a s.ries oa proipeclW official hostesses of D m o eratie presidential possibilities. Washington U.R) Mrs. Estes Kefauver would have the time of her life as first lady of the land just as she is in her cam paigning around the country as the wife of a presidential hope ful. The high-spirited wife of the Democratic senator from Ten nessee is of course convinced her husband is the best man in the race but "We certainly didn't expect anything like the success we've been getting. I think his chances are good now." Take Life in Stride Both Kefauvers like people and take the spotlight of public life in their stride. Nancy Kefauver has a trim figure, green eyes, petal-smooth skin and coppery gold hair. She loves brilliant green and usually wears it ,if only in a touch of iade jewelry. There are four young Kefau vers: Linda, 10; David, 6, who was adopted when the Kefauvers thought they would have no more children; Diane, 4, and Gail, 17 months. Children Have Doubts The children have doubts Long Hospital Slay Near Completion For Injured Pilot Pilot Tommy Helman, who was badly burned in the crash of a cloud-seeding airplane last May, will be released from Com munity hospital in two or three weeks, his wife said today. Helman was burned over more than 50 per cent of his body's surface when his plane crashed and burned in the Camp' White area. He has been in the hospital since then. His legs were burned over all their skin surface, Mrs. Helman explained, and although only the front of the legs are healed, he was able to get out of bed and take his first steps January 29, At intervals since he has been able to get up, and now is walk ing about three times a day for half-hour or hour periods, she said, ... More Skin Grafts Helman will have to return to the hospital from time to time for further skin grafts. Only body skin from his chest and back, where it was not burned, can be used in grafting opera tions, and the skin on his back has so far been unusable because he has been bedridden most of the time. This is one reason the grafting process has been a slow one, Mrs. Helman said. Mrs. Helman spends all the time she can with her husband, and she stated that his friends have been faithful in continuing to visit him. The couple has two children, Tommy Dean, 8, who attends Griffin Creek school, and Christine, 5. County Milk Output 17,000,000 Quarts Jackson county farmers are shipping to market approximate ly 17,000,000 quarts of whole milk a year, about 795 per cent more than Z5 years ago, accord ing to an analysis of state and federal dairy statistics. The milk, together with that used for cream and other dairy products, is produced on more than 565 dairy farms in the coun ty and comes from about 9,000 cows, according to the analysis which was prepared by the American Can company. A large amount of the milk produced locally goes to the Eu gene and Roseburg areas, the analysis points out. Jackson county dairies supply about 14 per cent of Eugene's annual milk requirements. Figures for the state of Ore gon show that more than 13,000 dairy farms sell about 378,900, 000 quarts of whole milk an nimlly. This compares with about 38.250 farms producing 148,372,- 000 quarts of milk in 1924.

They liked things the way they were when the senator had time to roller- skate and take them for rides on his motor bike. When their parents arrived home from the New Hampshire primary, the youngsters rigged a bag of water over the doorway to plop on the senator's head. Mrs. Kefauver says the children "hate to see daddy away from home" so much. She interrupts the politicking schedule to fly home almost every week-end. Honor Astonishes She was astonished when she recently was named the best dressed woman in public life. She has never owned a custom- made outfit, and is doing much of her campaigning in a five- year-old suit. She likes to sew and, in more leisurely days, made many of her own clothes and some of the children s. She is a talented artist and until a year or two ago spent much time with palette and brush. Her oil portraits of the children hang in almost every room of the comfortable, unpre tentious Kefauver home. Born in Scotland Mrs. Kefauver is 10 years younger than her 50-year-old husband. She was born in Scot land of American parents and so always has been an American citizen although her father later became a British subject. She met the senator, then a -young lawyer, on a blind date during a visit to Chattanooga.

Southern Oregon Grazing Land for State Beef Seen In Proposal by Pearson Salem ftJ.fi) P e r s o n s con fined to state institutions would; feed on southern Oregon beef under a plan proposed to the state Board of Control by State Treasurer Waiter J. PeBrson. Land Set Up For Lease Pearson said several thousand acres of excellent grazing iBnd in the Warner valley east of Lakeview are up for lease by the State Land Board. He urged the Board of Control to investigate the possibility of the state's leasing this land for the running of cattle. Gov. Douglas McKay expres sed apprehension that the state "might get its fingers burned" if it went into beef production on that scale. He said: "The cattle business is at a peak now, but no one knows when the market will break. I have seen many cattlemen who have gone broke and there is always a chance for the state to lose out on a deal of this sort." Newbry Favors Check Secretary of State Earl T. Newbry favored checking the plan. He was inclined to favor it, but said it would need much more information on costs to make up his mind. .
