f v1! Sandwiches Picnic Fashion Celebrate "August is sandwich time" picnic fashion with the favorite sandwiches pictured here. Sandwiches are so easy to make you can organize an out ing in a jiffy. Picnic time fs fun time! Keep food preparation to a minimum. You can quickly make up ham and cheese sandwiches. Every one likes them. Or, you might even take the "fixings" along and let each one make his special favorite. Potato salad is a high ranking escort for sandwiches. On hurry up occasions buy a big bag of potato chips. Make a big thermos jug of lemonade and take along a sack of fresh fruit. Your menu is complete! Ham and cheese make ideal fillings for sandwiches because they travel well. Other good pre made sandwiches include all of the luncheon meats and sausages, roast beef, sliced chicken, tongue, and corned beef. If you want your sandwich to take on "Dagwood" proportions, take along picalilli, mustard, to matoes, lettuce leaves, chili sauce, and salad dressing. There are many other delicious sandwich fillings which are at their best when made at the pic nic site. Choose from the wide variety of cheese and meat spreads available in jars. Take along a can of sardines and hard cooked eggs for "make-your- own" specialties. Another good one is made by mixing cream cheese with crushed crisp bacon, chipped beef or crushed fruits. If you have a camp stove, or facilities for making a fire, you'll probably want to take along frankfurters and long buns. Other "best sellers" are the mighty hamburger and the luxury steak. Perhaps you haven't ever made toasted cheese sandwiches sandwiches over a fire. You'll like them. Heat pork and beans, too, over the fire and make bean sandwiches with Bos' ton brown bread. Bacon is especially good with this. Add variety to picnic sand wiches by using different breads. Of course enriched white bread is most popular. But you will really enjoy occasionally, whole wheat, rye, pumpernickel, raisin and cinnamon breads. Fruit and nut breads are especially good with cheese spreads. Gasoline Sales In Oregon Show Drop During June Salem (U.PJGasoline sales in Oregon were lower in June this year than they were in June, 1951, according to Secre tary of State Earl T. Newbry. Sales totaled 51,007,747 gal lons, more than 800,000 gallons below the sales figure for June, 1951. Despite the drop, Newbry said consumption was high enough to keep mileage wll above any other month of this year. Motor ists rolled more than 600,000,000 miles, a high for 1952, and in so doing, managed to kill nearly seven persons for each 100,000, 000 miles of travel. Ties February Rate The actual mileage death rate, 6.8 tied with the February rate to make them the two worst traffic-killing months, mile for mile, for the year to date. June traffic deaths numbered 41. Officials were puzzled over the drop in gasoline sales in June. That month generally brings in a heavy influx of tour ist travel, resulting in large gas oline sales and mileage increases. Salem (U.R) Oregon's rev enue from the state gasoline tax the first six months of 1952 was more than $400,000 higher than for the same period last year. Secretary of State Earl T. New bry said that the tax collections showed increases every month of the period except in June when they dropped off $52,194. Newbry said he was unable to explain that slump since large numbers of tourists were report ed in the state in June. Fuel tax revenues for the first half of the year aggregated $15, 672,303 compared with $15,252,- 587 the first half of 1951. limits Summer Snacks When the temperature climbs, the desire for cool snacks and desserts is apt to reach its peak.

Sunday, August 3, 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVER No Cause for Alarm Seen in Hog Disease Salem (U.R) State Direc tor of Agriculture E. L. Peter son said Saturday there was no present cause for alarm in Ore gon over the hog disease preval ent in some parts of the country. The disease, known as vesic ular exanthema, is similar to foot-and-mouth disease in cattle, but Peterson said outbreaks so far uncovered in Oregon def initely were not foot-and-mouth disease. Only outbreaks of vesi cular exanthema discovered in Oregon were in Marion and Multnomah counties. Action Urged Peterson gave his reassuran ces to producers, seller and con sumers after Gov. Douglas Mc Kay received a telegram from Gov. Val Peterson of Nebraska urging Oregon's governor to join in pressing Secretary of Agricul ture Charles F. Brannan for im mediate federal action on a indemnifying hog growers for losses suffered as result of the Flagstone Fireplace Equip. Building Stone All Sizes, Types, Finishes Patio Furn.

The telegram was turned over to the state agricul ture department for study. The state agriculture director said there had been eight out breaks of the disease in Oregon. In all but two cases all signs, of the disease have been eliminated effectively, he said. Two Cases in Portland The two cases are in a herd of some 400 to 500 hogs owned by the B & B garbage feeding plant near Portland and a ship ment of swine from South Da kota now under lock and key in the North Portland stockyards. Peterson said he had instruct ed the department's attorney to draft an order for immediate slaughter of these hogs. He said it was possible to salvage meat; from infected hogs for processed meats, such as hams and bacon.' FISHERMEN OUT OF LUCK Ortonville, Mich.
