. 3 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon. Thursday, May 29, 1958 New Butter Process Told; Spreads Smoothly If Cold Corvallis Butter that steads smoothly when cold has been developed by an Oregon State college scientist and may soon be on the mar ket in the Northwest. Dr. G. H. Wilster, OSC (Hairy manufacturing scientist, developed a new churning process which turns out but ter that will spread Smoothly at temperatures as low as 43 fiegrees Fahrenheit. The proc- requires varied tempera fares, after pasteurization, tad precise churning and butter-making techniques. ' More than 23,000 pounds of butter have been produced at OSC by the new process. All samples have been waxy and smooth. Butter made by stand ard methods is usually hard, crumbly and difficult to cut or spread when cold. Hard, crumbly butter is primarily a problem during fall, winter, and early spring when dairy animals receive little green feed. However, it is possible to make crumbly butter even during summer months with careless churn ing and other inaccurate methods, Dr. Wilster explains. The new butter cuts easily when removed from the re frigerator, yet does not be come sticky at room tempera tures.

You are certain that 'yours is the most wonderful marriage in the world, and you want to spend the rest of your life enjoying this miracle of happiness which has come to you. You are determined to make your re lationship perfect,- strong r enough to last through the ages. You glance at the paper and see tales of disillusion, pain, and divorce.

Importance of butter "spreadability" was empha sized m a recent market study showing that 92 per cent of U.S. butter users like butter best as a spread for such foods as bread, crackers and rolls. Easy spreading qualities of the new butter were not af fected by long periods in cold storage at sub-zero tempera tures. This has aroused inter est of the U.S. armed forces for long distance transporta tion of food supplies. Several U.S. butter-buying concerns have asked their supply creameries to adopt the process. The method re quires no change in modern plant equipment. Dr. Wilster developed the process after spending a year in Europe during 1955-56 studying dairy processing methods and equipment, par ticularly in Denmark's world famous dairy research labora tories and processing plants. Assisting in the OSC research were Ed Zottola, research as sistant; Roy W. Stein, super intendent, OSC dairy prod ucts laboratory, and H. P. C. Nielson, laboratory technician. respect the privacy to which each mind is entitled. With care and understand ing, a wife can follow these suggestions one by one, until all are a part of her being.

Many farm wives now work in factories, stores and offices, the Institute of Life Insur ance reported. Agriculture de partment and Census Bureau figures showed that farm women earned 820 million dollars in 1955, mostly in non agriculture jobs. This trend is not limited to wives. Other family mem bers grandparents or chil dren got about 800 million dollars during 1955. And farmers themselves took out side jobs to chalk up a non farm income of more than four and a half billion dol lars a year. Reasons for the change are the increase of business and industries in or near farming districts and a drop in profit able farming.

We Need Clothing, ' Shoes, Dishes, Furniture. We Pick Up. HELP OTHERS! The Salvation Army SPring 3-7335 IP D tt ip od nil n n n Potpourri had no idea that one small purchase could cause such a furore. A middle-aged man, passing von the street, came almost to a halt and stared coldly with a look which said plain as day, "Doesn't she know how terrible she looks?" EA gave us practically the same kind of a look and Photographer Bob said "I'm speechless!" All because Potpourri bought a chemise dress modified, that is, but with bows fore and aft and what the advertisements and style show commentators call "back interest." Pappy was kinder and funnier. He said "Hmmm I see it has a pappoose carrier" and later added "Are you sure you haven't got it on wrong side to?" One of the Gro ceteria clerks took a second look and inquired "Are you trying to be modern, or something?" and a friend said, reproachfully, . "I never thought you'd buy one of those awful things!" Of course, some were kind. Pat Graham, the gallant Irishman that he is, said "I think you look real nice," but maybe he wouldn't have been so sure if we hadn't been sitting down at the time. EA didn't stop just with the look. He took action. After office hours he converted a small brown paper bag into a clever little sack dress, complete with small blue ribbon bow in just the right spot. He made a little dress hanger out of wire and hung the "copy" where it was the first thing Potpourri saw when she came to work Tuesday morn ing. All in all, it was a most interesting first-of-the-week. just because the society editor bought a new dress. We've been pondering the angles of this business of clothes, and the surprising, to many, reaction of men to the new chemise and sack style. Shortly after the first of the year Potpourri fell heir to a beautiful and expensive jacket dress designed by none other than Molly Parnis, who designs many of Mrs. Eisenhower's gowns. It is a handsome dress, faultlessly tailored, and one which Potpourri thought was quite becoming. But almost no one even gave it a second look. There is also in . the society editor's wardrobe a semi formal frock purchased in one of Medford's best shops last summer. It is quite expensive, of lovely material and in teresting design. This also is an unusually becoming dress, or so we thought. Several friends have commented and agreed, but mostly women. So why should a few yards of grey and white cotton material and a couple of bows draw so much attention? Potpourri sympathizes more than ever with the designers and buyers who have to try and please the public. m Here's another question someone can answer for Pot pourra. Why is it some drivers find it amusing to scare the daylights out of pedestrians? Saturday night, within the space of about five minutes, two different drivers made us wish we were a policeman. After parking on North Fir street, Potpourri and Ha Grant of the Bend Bulletin got out of the car and started around it to the sidewalk. Some driver whooshed up and in a most impolite manner, instead of waiting for us to get safely out of the way, before he parked, practically ran us down. The passengers laughed loudly at our discomfiture. We continued to the corner and started to cross the street when a carload of young people came roaring down the street and this driver, too, waited until, the last moment to throw on his brakes and slide around us. He then brought the car to a stop so his passengers and himself could lean out and jeer and laugh. I wonder if the same young men would find it equally amusing if they were required to stand in the crosswalk while other motorists saw how close they could come without actually knocking anyone down. x In the last issue of "Washington Calling," the newslet ter which Senator Richard Neuoerger and his. wife, Maur ine, put out from time to time, has an account of a recent luncheon which the wives of senators gave for Mrs. Eisen hower. She wrote: The . stately old Supreme Court chamber was the setting for the annual luncheon at which we Senate wives entertain ed for the Nation's First Lady. I felt extremely fortunate to be one of the eight who sat at Mrs. Eisenhower's table and had an opportunity to visit personally with her. The only other Democrat at this table was Mrs. Joseph Clark, wife of the Senator from Pennsylvania. Pink was the theme we had selected. We had borrowed pink tablecloths from downtown hotels, and the centerpieces consisted of pink carnations. We each had such a corsage. Mrs. Eisenhower wore a pink hat. I asked if she had received an advance "tip" as to our plans, but she told me it was merely a coincidence. As hostesses, we wore our Red-Cross unit uniforms. The menu was hot consomme, squabs Gettysburg with cornbread stuffing prepared by Gladys Johnston, the wife of the Senator from South Carolina; asparagus Lafayette, many-flavored petite muffins, strawberry tarts and coffee. The U. S. Army chorus sang songs from musical-comedy hits. Mrs. Eisenhower clapped loudest for those from "My Fair Lady." I enjoyed talking with Mrs. Eisenhower as I always do. She is a genuine, friendly person who seems truly interested in those around her. O.S. Billowy Graduation Dress Unchanged For This Year By GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor New York PI The chemise and trapeze may come and go, but the billowy grad uation dress seems destined to go on forever. The silhouette of short sleeves, wide sash or cummer bund, and full skirt is the top one with this spring's girl graduate, as it has been for many years back, according to New York manufacturers. Not a single house that I talked to dared a variation of the chemise or trapeze, which dominate women's fashions generally. "This is the one time they want to look especially pretty," said a spokesman for Connie Sage. "And the full skirts are prettiest on this age group . . . they're a little young to try for sophistica tion." Want To Look Alike "The herd instinct bars much change," said Post Eddy, SHOP AND JJlM! Conveniently Located at HI I - y r a. O 3 of Rappi Frocks. "For the same reason they will wear blue jeans around the house they all want billowy skirts for dressiip. They want to look alike, I guess. "We did depart a little this spring with a couple of sheaths, and they sold quite well," said a spokesman for Sportlane. "But graduation styles remain pretty standard for a couple of reasons. Many schools regulate what the girl graduate will wear. And it's easier to fit most teen-agers in full skirts." Manufacturers aim for variety with fabrics and color combinations. White, once a "must," has been deposed by the pastels. "We sell less and less all white each year," said Sage, "because most of the girls are looking for. something they can wear later. A pastel goes more places."

Mathematics Majors Needed Los Angeles (IP) Atten tion girls: Want to make sure of a job after college? Study mathematics. . UCLA officials report there is a staggering demand by schools and industry for col lege math graduates and that includes girls. The UCLA Office of Teach er Placement reports' that during the 1956-57 year it re ceived 616 requests for teach ers with" backgrounds m mathematics. Only seven math graduates one a coed was available to answer the de mand. Although industry drains off the majority of math grad uates through more rapid pro motions and salary increases than offered in teaching, it faces a severe shortage of its own. This is especially true in the mushrooming elec tronic computing field. Over all, industry demand for math graduates is three times that of -supply. Officials pointed out that salary discrimination against women is rapidly disappear ing in industry as demand in creases Benny Goodman Gives Classical Concert Brussels (UPI) Benny Goodman, America's "King of Swing," displayed less-known talents as a classical clarinet ist at a broadcast concert here Wednesday night. Goodman played Mozart concertos with a Belgian chamber orchestra during the first half of the concert, then assembled his own quintet to wind up the evening with a lighter program called "Jass at the Fair." The American musician has been a four-star attraction at the Brussels World's Fair. and yellows were out-selling white. Sportlane said mint was "very strong."

NEW STORE Medford Rose Society Completes Show Plans Members of Medford Rose Society made further plans for the fourth annual rose show at the society's June meeting Monday evening at the courthouse auditorium. The show will be held Mon day, June 2, at the courthouse auditorium, and all rose en thusiasts are cordially invited to bring entries. Mrs. Ranald Axtell, Trail, is general chairman. Entries will be taken from 7 to 10 a. m. Judging will be from 10 to 12 noon, and no entry fee is charged. Schd ules of the show are available at Swem's Gift shop, Elton's Farm and Garden store, Mon arch Seed and Feed company and Lawrence's Jewelery store. The rules and regulations of the American Rose society will govern the show. Seventy - seven different roses were' brought to Mon days meeting by the members, and everyone present given an opportunity to identify them. Among those exciting the most comment for their beauty or unusuallness, were Grandmere Jenny, Aztec, Bountiful, Lavender Girl and Sterling Silver. The highest score for identification was that of Eldred Peyton, past president, who correctly identified thirty-three. Visitors at the meeting were Mrs. Alice Warnock and Mrs. Earle Read. Study Rules Mrs. Axtell, show chairman, urges persons planning to en ter the show for the first time to study the rules and comply with requirements. Judges, who will be accredit ed by both the American Rose society and the Federation of Garden clubs, are governed by the rules of the show. In addition to entries in the specimen classes, the show will also have divisions for arrangements. An explanation of these prepared by the soc iety follows: A dining table arrange ment, formal and free stand ing, and not over 14 inches A NEW LOOK AT r SIR WALTER, raCYDS REALOLP-TIMIl IT'S TIME YOU WENT AND I FLAVOR ISTHE GREATESTWALT, I DISCOVEREDTHINGS LIKE I DISCOVERY EVERMADEH you're 3 tli(fjlj l!!(fH ' x fi . It's hard to be sure you're getting a bargain when you can't look inside to "see what makes it tick". So why gamble? Best way to avoid buying mistakes is to use the basic rule of sound buy ing: A good brand is your best guarantee. Whatever you buy, you know the maker stands behind a good brand. You can't go wrong. , The more good brands you know the surer you are. Get to know them in this newspaper. They'll help you cut buying mistakes, get more for your money. BRAND NAMES FOUNDATION Incorporated A Non-Profit Educational Foundation 37 West 57th Street, New York 19, New York high in Class two refers to an arrangement which is as much alike as possible on both sides. It is to be enjoyed by all of the guests on both sides of the table and any arrange ment exceeding 14 inches in height is disqualified for this is the standard height which permits guests to see one an other across the table. A coffee table arrangement likewise is a freestanding ar rangement because it should be pleasing to look at from all angles; however it need not be formal and, alike on both sides as a dining table ar rangement. Both types of ar rangements will be judged from, all sides. The 14 inches in width was given so there Xvould be more or less uni formity in size of the coffee arrangements entered at the show. Small Arrangements At previous shows the small arrangements have been dif ficult to make because few exhibitors have the very small roses. This year the small arrangement may be up to 7 inches in height or width and these are judged by the same standards as the large ones. That means it is necessary to have a good focal point or center of interest, pleasing outline, etc. A few varieties of roses good for this class of an ar rangement are Rosenelf, Ce cile Brunner, Pink Rosette, Topaz, Perle D'Or, Garnette and some of the smaller po lyanthus varieties. For the sugar bowl class, those entering may use one of their own choice. The class featuring pink roses does not require a pink container. Since the container is a part of the arrangement it should be either a neutral or a harmonizing color. This is the same rule for all of the classes, unless otherwise speci fied, asL in the arrangement of roses in a low metal con tainer. All containers and accessor ies should have the owners name on the underside for HISTORY. . .. ..Sir Vfetter Raleigh MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Music Teacher On State Board Ashland Miss Helene Rob inson, assistant professor of music and acting chairman of the music department at Southern Oregon college, has been appointed by the Oregon Music Teachers' association to serve on the state Syllabus Board as an adjudicator of piano.
