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? Go browsing in
your favorite bookshop's section
on cookbooks and find a happy
gift solution for several prob'em
people. Book titles alone will
cause you to reach for '"just the

cooker, the fancier of foreign
dishes or whatever. Regional

mingle happily among the reci

tested cook book for the eight to
12-year-old set. We suggest sev

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. I always look
forward eagerly to holidays. I
am not sure whether this de
notes that I am retaining my
youth or indicates that I am
entering my second childhood.
There were special Thanks
giving observances in our New
Bridge church and Grange hall
and in the Richland churches
and Grange hall, and family
dinners and house parties.
Thanksgiving was a very pleas
ant occasion at our house. Out
of town guests were Mr. and
cookies and the like or aren't
the baking "type", you'll find
them all and many other good
things in any of our town's fine
bakeshops.
Candy is another good family
gift. Our candy shops offer a
host of fine, candies ranging all
the way from nickle candy canes
to huge handsome boxes of glis
tening, glamorous chocolates and
other specialties deluxe. Hard
candy assortments, of course.
Other suggestions include
cheeses, jellies, jams, preserves,
cookies, crackers, party foods,
fancy fish and shellfish among
favorites.
Best Buys in foods for meal
time. California's golden navel
oranges are niled hi?h and they
are juice packed. Twice as many
avacados as last year and most of
them will be eaten with a sprink
ling of fresh lemon or lime juice
and a dash of salt. Major apple
varieties are Delicious, Romes,
Newtons and Winesaps showing
up. December is month of dates
when about a fifth of the entire
production is marketed. Mostly
Emperor grapes now with a few
Almerias and Ribiers. Plenty of
oranges, grapefruit, lemons,
limes and tangerines. Some per
simmons, some pineapples, a few
strawberries. Fine big luscious
Anjou pears.
Vegetables. Anise and mush
rooms at peak of season. Plenty
of artichokes, broccoli, Brussel
sprouts, cabbage, carrots, celery,
eggplant, spinach lettuce par
snips green peppers, squash,
sweet potatoes, turnips and ruta
bagas. ,
Others: turkeys, fryers, broil
ers, pork cuts, halibut, oysters,
rockfish, salmon shrimp.

JOHNSTON STORES
112 South Riverside
Mrs. Buck Hoselton and daugh
ters, Gloria, Donna, Betty and
Bonnie of Eugene and Mr. Ralph
Shovar of Richland, Oregon.
New BrHye visitors during
the day and evening were Mr.
and Mrs. Carl Carnagey and
son, Tommy, and Mr. Jake
Thompson, Mr. and Mrs. Jay
Beale and NeiL Page.
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.
