Celebrating June Dairy Month, we offer many suggestions for use and care of "nature'i most perfect food" which comes in so many satisfying forms. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food fditor Dairy Products Get Top Billing As We CeUbrat June Dairy Month We rejoice in an abundance of dairy products at reasonable cost as local herds of fine milk producers (the world's most effi cient animals) work overtime to produce your family's share of milk and milk products. Celebrating June Dairy month. we're reminded that milk is na ture's most nearly perfect food and that it comes in many forms for good eating as well as for drinking. West Coasters drink more milk and eat more cottage cheese and sour cream than peo ple in other states of the nation. Perhaps this Is why dairying is a najor Industry here and has been practically ever since the first cows came west over the Oregon Trail. We're Justifiably proud of our state s cheese production, too. Milk Daily Need Every member of the family, from infants to the aged, needs milk every day for energy, growth and repair of body tis sues, for strong bones and teeth and for a general feeling of "well being." Children need a quart of milk a day. Teen-agers should have a quart or more of milk daily and adults of all ages need a pint or more daily. Nutrition studies constantly show calcium 'deficiencies in many states. Without adequate milk In the daily diet, it is ex tremely difficult to meet calcium requirements. More for Your Money There is no waste in milk. Ev ery drop can be used and cost is low in proportion to food value. Government nutritionists say that, in terms of money value, from one-fifth to one-third of the allowance for the family's food should be spent for mill and milk products. Cook's Buying Guide Dairy foods have an Important place in meal planning. When you're shopping or cooking, keep these facts in mind and avoid puzzling moments. One pound of American (Ched dar) cheese makes two cups, grated. One pound of butter makes "two cups. One pound cot tage cheese make two cups. One half pint (one cup) coffee cream makes eight coffee servings. One-half pint (one cup)" whip ping cream makes two cups, whipped. One quart of ice cream makes six to eight servings. Car of Milk Celebrate June Dairy month by checking up on these items and your habits for making the most of milk. Wipe the bottles or cartons 'with a damp cloth and hustle them into the refrigerator. Milk needs a cool, dark place. Pre cious vitamins are destroyed by light. Cover milk to protect its deli cate flavor. Other odors easily creep in when milk is left un covered. Pour out the milk you plan to use at any one time and return rest to refrigerator. Use yesterday's milk before today's. This is easy to do if you always put new containers be hind those already in refrigera tor. Care of Buitar Keep butter in refrigerator wrapped and in its package or a covered container. Remove cube at a time or cut off amount you plan to use and refrigerate balance. Car of Chas Cover all cheese tightly In plastic containers or jars or wrap in aluminum foil or waxed pa per. Packaged cheese may be stored in its own wrapping. Keep in refrigerator. Soft cheeses such as cream and cottage cheese are quite per ishable but can be kept for sev eral days in tightly covered con tainers. Cut off any mold that devel ops on hard cheeses such as Am erican and Swiss. The cheese un derneath is perfectly good. Serve most cheeses at room tempera ture for best flavor. Care of Ice Cream To store ice cream for a short period in the ice cube compart ment of your refrigerator, trans fer it to a dry refrigerator tray and cover with waxed paper. Keep ice cream in the cartons in your home freezer or frozen food compartment of refrigera tor. Pr.e-packaged ice cream is ideal for storage. If held in freezer, it may need to be softened a little at refrigerator temperature be fore using.

Ways to Get More Milk In Family's Daily Diet Use fresh milk with cereals, fruits, desserts and in - main dishes, soups, sauces, vegetable dishes, bread and other baked goods. Cereals may be cooked in milk instead of water or dry milk olids may be mixed with dry cereal before cooking. Main luncheon, supper or dinner dish may feature, cheese in fondue or with cheese added enhance many vegetables. Evaporated milk as it comes from the can may be used for coffee, for cereals or in recipes developed for its use or it may be diluted with equal volume of water and used like fresh whole milk. The 14 vs ounce can pro vides a little less than a quart of reconstituted milk. Dry milk of the non-fat va riety is surprisingly economical; may be added with the dry in gredients to mixtures for pre pared dishes. It is reconstituted for beverages and custards. To reconstitute, add the milk solids to water, preferably lukewarm, and blend in one of the simple mixers developed for that pur pose or snake in a tight con tainer or whip with egg-beater or electric beater. Package direc tions suggest ideal methods and uses. Sweetened condensed milk is useful for making candies, frost ings and desserts according to recipes developed for its use. Many people like it in coffee. To heat milk, use low, even temperatures. Milk may be heated either over low direct heat or over hot water in top of double boiler. It should be cov ered or stirred while heating. In baking custard, place baking dish in larger pan of hot water. Use low temperature and bake no longer than .necessary to "set" the custard. To heat cheese, use low tem perature and cook only long enough to melt the cheese. High heat makes cheese tough and stringy. Process cheese melts more quickly than natural cheese.

With plenty of room for more Alaska still boasts 2.8 square miles per person it now holds an optimism as broad as its bounties of forests, farmlands, fisheries, oil and mineral de posits, scarcely tapped. Twice Size of Texas Leading the magazine's por trayal of a region twice the size of Texas, Elsie May Bell Gros venor, wife of Dr. Gilbert Gros venor, chairman of the board of trustees of the National Geo graphic Society, writes of "Al aska's Warmer Side." Mrs. Grosvenor, daughter of Alexander Graham Bell, inven tor of the telephone, traveled with her husband by steamship, railroad, airliner, automobile, and bush plane on a summer va cation swing across southern Alaska. Their chief goal was to see Lake Grosvenor on the Alaska Peninsula, named in 1919 for the Society's director, as well as Katmai National Monument, the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, and the glacier country along the Inside Passage. The author writes of vast ver dant forests now being opened to scientific cutting for new pulp-wood production, of air travel expansion, of magnificent scenery in huge National Parks, and of Alaska's friendly, open hearted hospitality. By air the Grosvenors looked down into the green crater lake of Mount Katmai, whose violent explosion in 1912 blew two cubic miles of mountaintop into dust that drifted around the world. They found the "Ten Thousand Smokes" of the deso lated valley below Katmai now total only seven steaming fum- Goveror Elected Delegation Chairman To GOP Convention Salem (U.R) At an organiza tional meeting yesterday, Gov.

From Anchorage. Alaska's biggest city with 60,000 inhabi tants in the immediate area, the Grosvenors toured prosperous dairy-farm regions. They visited new hospitals, an agricultural research station, and the forward-looking University of Al aska. Outposts to the North In both winter and summer, writer Robert Moore covered Alaska's modern boom from great jet-plane bases to north ernmost outposts. His travels pinpointed many changes on new maps. The airplane,, he found, has become as common to Alaskan life as kayaks and dog sleds once were. "Put your finger on any northern village on the map of Alaska and we have scheduled service to it," oni airline executive told him. Busy salmon canneries, rath er than gold mines or fur lines provide the Territory's chief source of revenue today. But prospectors, businessmen, geolo gists, oilmen, and timber ex perts talk enthusiastically of other riches. In Nome, the writer found a bank still willing to cash a poke of gold. But residents were more interested in newer finds of tin. copper, coal, asbestos, graphite, and tungsten on the Seward Pen insula. At Kodiak in the Gulf of Alaska, where Russian fur traders settled in 1792. a United States Navy base and bumper fisheries keep the port wide awake and growing.
