o o !o n I) O Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Cilrus Marmalades Thinking of making marmal ade? A fine idea for family en joyment, for giving good neigh bors and for tucking into family packages. How about letting the teen-agers do this? We add dis tinctive flavor to citrus fruits by adding pure vanilla extract. You'll get 12 half pint jars from this. 3 medium grapefruit 6 medium oranges 2 medium lemons Water to cover fruit 4 cups water About 10 cups (2Vi quarts) sugar 5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract Wash grapefruit, oranges and lemons, cut into thin slices, re move seeds. Cut each slice into one-quarter inch strips. Measure grapefruit and oranges. There should be about seven cups grapefruit and o2m cups oranges. Place fruit in eight-quart ket tle or saucepan. Add water to cover. Bring to boiling point. Drain. Repeat two more times. Add four cups water and cook, uncovered, hours or until fruit is tender. Measure the fruit (about 10 cups). Add sugar, one cup for each cupful cooked fruit. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about lVfe hours, stir ring frequently. Add pure vanil la extract. Pour into 12 sterilized half pint jars. Seal at once. Tempting Tangerines Good in Many Ways Besides being colorful for fruit bowls, festive in table center pieces, exotic in gift baskets, the zipper-skinned tangerine is ideal in lunch boxes, salad arrange ments and attractive at dinner with cheese. For a relish to highlight holi day meals, try this: Put two Florida tangerines that have been quartered and seeded (peel ing and all) through food chop per along with four cups fresh cranberries. Add two cups sugar, fixing thoroughly. Chill in re frigerator for several hours. Makes one quart of relish but we recommend storing in half pints. Will keep well in refrig erator for several weeks but who wants to store something so good for so long? A Good Cook Book Is a Joy Forever Gift shopping?

In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Secretary of Agriculture Ben son possibly hoping to take our minds off the Sputnik scare -Shas just sprung something new on the farm front an experi mental scheme to put ENTIRE FARMS into the soil bank pro gram. He says the plan will be tried experimentally in four states Illinois, Maine, Nebraska and Tennessee and will take whole farms out of crop production and usg the land to grow only grass and trees. He says if the plan is success ful in the four guinea pig states there is a good chance the ad ministration "will push for a shsfole expansion of the system. major farm problems are STILL UNSOLVED which sounds a little like saying that what the committee is proposing couldn't be any worse than what has been done already. rpHE idea was first suggested a few days ago by the National Committee for Economic Devel opment, a private organization composed of 150 business execu tives and educators, who des cribe their mission as "working together to promote a high level of national employment and maximum economic growth." It is aimed at marginal - size farms that are too small to take advantage of modern agricultur al machinery. Its basic purpose would be to take farms of this type COMPLETELY out of pro duction, thus encouraging their owners to switch to city jobs. WHAT it amounts to is RENr TAL by the government of farms of this type, permitting their owners to go into other kinds of business. It is hoped that in this way farm production could be reduced enough to bring supply into balance with demand. The committee accompanied its suggestion with the statement that American taxpayers have spent 25 billion dollars in 25 years on farm programs and that AS TO the plan itself this thought will immediately oc cur to anyone with a practical mind: What will happen after these farms are rented by the government? rpHEY can't be just permitted to lie out in the sun and the wind and the rain and grow up to weeds. That would be un thinkable. If they are to go into grass and trees, somebody will have to PUT them into grass and trees. Who will do it? How much will it cost? Will the federal government go into the business of operating these grass and tree farms? If so, the taxpayer can bet his bot tom dollars that he is going to be nicked pretty heavily to pay the bill. ANOTHER thought: What will be the competi tive effect of these grass and tree farms (presumably government operated) on the agriculture of the West and particularly on the agriculture of Southern Ore gon and Far Northern Califor nia? Already our Southern Oregon Far Northern California agricul ture has been harmed materially by the fact that land taken out of the so-called "basic" crops has been put into our SPECIALTY crops, thus glutting our markets. Threes and grass are among our specialties. If the govern ment goes heavily into promo tion of tree and grass reserves, we can be pretty sure we will be still further harmed.

Stray Notes, from Eastern Oregon By SAGE BRUSH SALLY Friday. December 13. 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Now that Thanksgiving Is over a week past, our routine is back to normal.

Jake Thompson went to Eu gene with the Hoseltons on the Sunday following Thanksgiving. He will visit his sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Daniels at Sutherlin. I received word yesterday that my uncle, Bird Woodruff, of Myrtle Creek is hospitalized at the Forest Glen hospital in Can yonville with pneumonia. He is expected to be well enough to go home in a few days. Our flu epidemic seems to be over. We were in Baker last Thurs day. The Main street is already beautifully decorated for Christ mas. We drove over Dooley mountain to our mining prop erty at Mill Creek to see how our cabin and picnic area weath ered the deer and elk hunting season. We found everything just as we left it when we were there in October, which is quite a tribute to the many hunters who were in that area. We keep the cabin locked but the picnic and outdoor facili ties are open. We have a notice there stating campers are wel come to use them. So far we haven't had anything damaged or stolen. Here in the New Bridge area a special three week's deer of any age or sex controlled sea son opened Dec. 7. For this hunt I 200 tags at $5 each were issued. ; The bag limit is one deer. j This controlled hunt each De- j cember has been opposed from j the beginning by the Eagle Val- j ley people. Consequently, after trying to go along with the Game com mission on the idea several years this fall the land owners have most of the area posted with "no hunting or trespass ing" signs, hoping if possible to ! end this yearly unnecessary slaughter of deer.
