SATELLITE'S "HAT" TRANSMITS DATA An artist's
conception of the earth satellite over Patrick Air Force
Base, Fla., shows it carrying a minified model of the Va
ran magnetometer (resembling a hat) which will transmit
new data about the earth's magnetic field above the inos
phere and answer many important questions concerning
iragnetic disturbances in vital radio communications. The
ingeniously simple magnetometer was invented by Dr
Russell a Varian of Palo Alto, Calif.

Ir,t Creum Most '
Popuiar Dessert
We're eating more ice cream
all the time More people order
ice ci cam in restaurants than all
ether desserts combined. Last
year we consumer 850 million
gallons of commercially frozen
desserts and that doesn't include
un-gucssod tons of home made
varieties.
It is estimated that 25U of those
million gallons went home in
half gallon containers. Home
freezers are of course the im
portant factor responsible for
this trend. No more "run down
to the drug store for a quart of
ice cream, and hurry home be
fore it melts."
Ice cream is essentially a dairy
product. State laws control
wcicht peT gallon and amount
of butter fat which usually is
well above the requirement as
ice cream makers take pride in
product quality. Imitation and
dieters ice creams must be clear
ly marked and are handled
separately frcm ice cream stor
age ai'c.is.
Mtke Mine Vanilla
Vanilia ice cream continues
to lead the flavor parade doing
51 per cent of the business. Choc
olate docs 12 per cent and straw
berry under 9 per cent. Straw
berr is being pushed hard by
clierrr and is likely to be pas
sed. Perhaps -00 other varieties

and fading out right along. We've
observed such delights as bor

even sauerkraut ice cream.
Sip and Spoon These
For Summer sipping through a
straw and subsequent spooning,
scoop ice cream into tall glasses;
pour over practically jny favored
beverage that bubbles; ginger
ale, any of the "sodas" or "colas,"
root beer, orange or other fruit
juices with ginger ale added.
Stir vigorously and alternately
sip and spoon.
Parmesan Veal Chops. Family
and friends will rave about these.
To serve four. . .Score fat on
edges of four veal chops; sprink
le with salt and pepper and dip
into flour. Beat one egg lightly.
Dip floured chops into beaten
egg then into one-half cup Par
mesan cheese. Brown slowly in
about two tablespoons of butter.
When brown add three-fourth
cup California sauterne or other
white table wine; cover and sim
mer until meat is tender, and
wine is almost evaporated.
Summertime Vegetables,
Fruits In Abundance
Summertime vegetables and
fruits are coming to market in
ever increasing quantity. The
flow of fresh produce during the
summer months is a gradual
changing in peak of production
goodness from one favored veg
etable or fruit to another. If
you plan to can, freeze or other
wise preserve some of this year's
bounty, we suggest you check
with your produce man right
along for the very best time to
do your "putting up." One thing
sure, the prices on your home
preserved foods won't go up in
the fall or winter as they do on
many commercial packs.
Vegetable Department. Right
now asparagus, green peas and
new potatoes are disappearing.
They are being replaced by an
abundant supply of corn on the
cob; tomatoes that are getting
bigger and tastier; and a good
supply of cucumbers, green
beans, lima beans, summer
squash and onions just , waiting
to be consumed. Spinach and
other greens are in good supply.
Top quality lettuce is available.
Long White potatoes are in ex
cellent supply. This clean,
smooth, thin skinned potato is
easy to prepare for cooking and
has an extremely small amount
of waste. Cabbage, broccoli, car
rots celery, green peppers and
eggplant are well priced.
Fruit Department. S t rawber
ries continue abundant. How
ever, if you plan on making jam
or other strawberry goodies we
suggest you be about it. Apri
cots are reaching their peak.
Theii season is extremely short
and sweet so enjoy now. Good
buys in grapefruit, watermelon,
cantaloupe and rhubarb. Com
; mercially grown blueberries,
raspberries and blackberries are
I in light supply. Unseasonal rains
I have cut down on this year's
cherrv crop. Peaches, plums
i s?edless grapes and Vale ncia
oranges are moderately priced
! Protein Buys. Since, as you all
' know, June is Dairy Month,
cheest comes up frequently for
"special pricing. Watch this pa
per's market ads for best buys
New-crop turkeys and storage
stocks continue heavy. Ample
supplies of the popular 7 to 12
pounders. Plenty of broilers and
: fryers to fill the bill. Eggs are
1 plentiful: prices very reasonable
! Beef offers some good buys in
chucks, rounds. and always econ
omical ground beef. Lamb prices

i buys.

Is That So?
Every pool of sea water, each
heath at ebb tide, every pond,
lake and stream contain mem
bers of a huce family1 of animals,
the mollusks which include
snails, oyster, slugs, and scal
lops. More than 70,000 kinds of
mollusks have been described
Some species are rare others like
the oysters number in the un
countable billions.
Most mollusks have a shell, a
il-i
protective covering of calcare
ous material made of lime,
which was secreted by the mus
cular body covering . commonly
called the mantle of the living
animal within the shell.
Each species of shell-bearing
mollusca creates its own partic
ular shape and marking of shell
and can be identified by its shell
alone. A good conchologist, in
fact, can tell by looking at a
shell from which island it came
from and more, from which
side of the island and often at
what altitude!
Thornton Rules on
Wasco Tax Case
The Dalles OP Attorney
General Robert Y. Thornton has
issued an opinion on the North
ern Wasco County Peoples Util
ity District tax abatement case
which leaves the thorny legal
controversy in the hands of the
courts.
Thornton's opinion was the
second issued in the case. The
first said the Wasco county court
did not have the authority to
abate $11,457 worth of interest
on taxes owed by the PUD. The
abatement, however, was grant
ed by the court before Thorn
ton's statement reached The
Dalles.
Since the first opinion on May
15, the PUD's attorney, Raymond
Kell. threatened legal action
against the county court. The
court, feeling the threat placed
a new light on the case, asked
for Thornton's second opinion,
received Thursday.
The PUD has fought payment
of its countv tax. The State Su
preme Court ruled this spring
that the taxes were owed and
the PUD paid S42.928 and the
court abated interest on that
sum.
Thornton's opinion received by
the court said he still believed
the court had no authority to
abate the interest but that the
final judgment should be ren
dered by the courts and not by
the attorney.

The largest of all mollusks is
the giant squid which has the
further distinction of being the
largest animal without a back
bone in the world. Its body may
reach a length of 19 feet, its ten
tacular arms another 35 feet,
making a total length of almost
55 feet. Individual suckers on
the tentacles are nearly l'i
inches across. This giant squid
has seldom been seen alive. It
lives in the open sea. usually at
great depths and is usually
found cast up dead on a beach,
those of Newfoundland being
the most frequently favored.
Great Delicacy
Of snails which are consid
ered a great delicacy in some
countries the largest is the
Achatina achatina which meas
ures seven inches in length.
The largest of all shells, and
the biggest bivalve known, is
the giant clam Tridacna gigas.
One alone will provide a meal
for a large gathering, providing
from 20 to 30 pounds of meat.
The shells are frequently more
than three feet long and weigh
more than 500 pounds. A speci
men in the American Museum of
Natural History in New York,
measures 43 by 29 inches, and
weighs 579 pounds well over
a quarter ton! The margin of
each shell is deeply waved and
indented, each shell fitting close
ly into the opposite shell. The
shells are used for many pur
poses such as baptismal fonts,
holy-water receptacles, and ba
bies' bathtubs in photographers'
studios!
In North America, the largest
mollusk is the rosy-lipped Queen
conch shell found along the At
lantic coast. It may weigh as
much as 5 pounds and its horny
exterior measures over 11 inch
es. The more slender Horse
conch may measure up to 24
inches in length. On the Pacific
coast, a platter-shaped mollusk
may measure 12 inches overall.
Its shell is coarse and thick,
brick red on the outside and a
beautiful shimmering green and
pink inside.
Pearl Most Famous
The tiniest of all shells be
longs to a marine gastropod,
Homalogyra atomus. from the
Atlantic which is only 130 of
an inch in diameter.
Perhaps the most famous prod
uct of the mollusk family is the
pearl a protective secretionary
body formed around some irri
tant. They are now cultivated
artificially, mainly in Japan
where the art was first prac
ticed. The largest pearl in the world
is the Hope pearl of 1.800 grains
almost three ounces. It is a
fraction over three inches in
length and has a circumference
at its globular end of 4V4 inches.
The largest known pearl of reg
ular shape is known as the La
Pellegrina which weighs 111V4
grams.
