Economist Urges
Wiser Use of
Package MFxes
Corvallis Consumers
counting minutes and money,
can save both by wise use of
package mixes. However,
some mixes save more time
and money than others, a
home economist from Oregon
State college extension serv
ice points out.
Cake mixes, for instance,
are one of the best bargains
in terms of time saved .for
money spent, says Mrs. Ruth
Klippstein, OSC nutritionist.
With a. njix, a third of the
time required to make a cake
from individual ingredients
can be saved and it only costs
a few pennies more to buy
the mix.
In general, money is saved
by making baked goods from
"scratch" but takes more
time, she says. With a mix,
homemakers can save one
half the time needed to make
cookies, and one-fourth the
time needed to make biscuits
and pie crusts.
Package biscuit and cookie
mixes cost IVi times more
than individual ingredients
and package pie crusts almost
twice as much.
According to U.S. depart
ment of agriculture reports,
city homemakers are more
likely to use mixes than farm
homemakers. In a department
survey, more than half of the
city homemakers who baked
a cake used a mix, compared
with 34 per cent of farm
homemakers. Cookies were
made from commerical mixes
in 20 per cent of the city
kitchens and in 8 per cent of
those on the farm.
In the city, biscuits came
from mixes a third of the
time, and pie crusts a fifth
of the time.
To preserve the high qual
ity of food, put no more un
frozen food into a freezer
than will freeze with in 24
hours, or about 2 to 3 pounds
of food to a cubic foot of
freezer capacity.

IP tip TIB IT I i
Every southern Oregon garden should have some winter
jasmine in it. This- hardy plant thrives without much care
and in the dead of winter puts put flowers. Several days ago
we noticed a flash of 'yellow among the twigs as we went'
down the driveway in the car and sure enough, when we
took a closer look there was one little branch tip in bloom,
in spite of the frost and ice. Monday morning before work
we snipped off six or eight lengths and made an arrangement
in the little green and yellow butter dish which was a
present from daughter a number of years ago. In the warmth
of the news room the buds soon began to unfold and now we
have a brave display of little yellow blossoms. As tar as
we're concerned, how flowers can bloom in winter's cold
remains one of nature's mysteries.
Housewives who get all worked up about the size of
their grocery bills should take a closer look at them,
according to extension food specialists at .Oregon State
college. Ten chances to one, the grocery bills aren't all food.
The U. S. Department of Agriculture and University of
California made a survey of 1000 retail grocery stores to
find out how many non-food items they carried. In 91
to 93 per cent of the grocery stores, many other articles
were on sale, such as "notions and drugs," they found.
Chain stores were more likely to carry more of these
non-food items than independent groceries, and large stores
are more likely to carry them than small ones.
The economists say that if you really want to know
what food costs, be sure to subtract from the grocery bill
such items as notions, drugs, cooking utensils, light bulbs,
clothing, costume jewelry, cosmetics and magazines, all to
be found in today's modern "grocery" store.
Patrick O'Donovan, writer for the London Observer
News service, says Americans brag about their "classless
ness" but have just as many symbols of class status as
people of other nations. The reporter noted this particularly
in industry, where many symbols set off the executive from
the rest of the employees, or are designed to signify the
proper rank of the executives.
Some of the common "rank symbols" are special parking
places or special washrooms, some of which include attend
ants, free eau-de-cologne, linen towels or maybe even a
sun lamp for the higher echelons, O'Donovan found. In
Detroit it seems top executives get the use of two free cars
(one N for the wife), while lower executives have 'the use
of company cars.
-In one oil firm, a first class executive can choose be
tween a Cadillac or an Imperial fifth-level executives can
choose between Chevrplets or Plymouths.
Brass spittoons beside a man's desk indicated high rank
in the past now a carafe of ice water and glasses on. a
tray, says the Observer reporter. Other important symbols
of rank and power are the right to include your wife on
the company expense account, membership in the country
club paid by the firm, a large desk, a padded leather couch
and an original oil painting on the wall. Of course, if the
man has the use of a private elevator and has a real fire
place in his office, then he's really reached the top.
Other writers and not always foreign have commented
from time to time how Americans are prone to criticize
nations which support royalty, but nevertheless copy the
pomp and ceremony and titles of royalty. Lodges, fraternal
organizations and other groups in the United States use
such titles as queen, king, prince, lord, knight, vizier and
similar ranks in their orders. These officers are royally
garbed in purple and gold and sit on regal thrones during
elaborate ceremonies. From time to time some one speaks
out against this system as "undemocratic" but apparently
it is little heeded, since the groups continue to flourish.
Potpourri has been saving a little anecdote about a
Medford hostess. This hostess had been asked by a com
mittee to give a party for a visitor -coming to the city, with
all arrangements made over the phone to the accompaniment
of childish laughter, screams and other family noises in the
background. The hostess dutifully called several couples and
invited them to the party, repeating a name which she
believed to be the name of the guest of honor. She was
reduced to near hysteria a few days later to discover that
the name she had used was not that of the visitor and
honored-guest-to-be, but that of a well known Medford
business man who should have been invited to her party.

With one eye on the Saturday clock and the other on his
typewriter, the MT sports editor produced this one: "Fish
caught in the Rogue in the spring are largely small steel
head." Reminded that it was quitting time and his wjfe would be
waiting for transportation, Photographer Bob Vroman looked
at the clock and said "There's plenty of time. She's just about
now beginning to get ready to wait." O.S.
Fresh pears are wonderful
dessert treats for calorie
watchers. Each medium sized
pear contains only 60 to 70
calories, yet satisfies because
of its sweet tasting levulose
sugar. For, a truly gourmet
dessert, treat your calorie
watching friends to a perfectly
ripened pear half served with
a wedge of lemon or lime.
Serve on a dessert plate for
a spoon eating dessert.
CHUKKA BOOTS - j
Ankle-high chukka boots
are fashionable as well as a
practicable sportswear acces
sory, reports the American
Institute of Men's and Boys'
Wear. Made in both smooth
leathers and in rugged suedes,
these boots come in two and
three-eyelet styles and others
fasten with straps. The most
popular models carry either
a plain toe or a moccasin
type front.
Cauliflower Is recorded In
human history as early as the
6th century B. C. It is the ar
istocrat of the cabbage fam
ily because of its sensitivity to
climate: difficulty of culture,
and relatively high price.
To remove grease spots
from tablecloths, dust a little
talcum powder on the satin.
Let it set for an hour, then
dust off. The powder will
absorb the grease.
