pre-war years. And we re
buying better quality foods
with more variety, reports
Mrs. Elvera Horrell, Oregon
State College extension econo
mist. The big push on retail food
prices has come largely from
increased marketing'costs, she
states. The retail bill for
farm-produced foods has gone
up 38 percent since 1947, but
marketing costs have in
creased twice as fast. Market
ing costs jumped from S17.8
billion in 1947 to $30.9 in
1957 an increase of 74 per
cent. Marketing costs include
all of the charges made by
marketing agencies for assem
bling, processing, transporting
and distributing the foods in
the market basket.
Last year, consumers paid
at retail prices a total of $40.5
billion for foods' grown on
U.S. farms. Restaurant meals
valued at retail store prices
were included in this bill, but
not such nonfarm goods as
fish and other seafoods, nor
imported foods- such as cof
fee and bananas. More than
three-fifths of this grocery bill
was accountea or in getting
the raw food product to the
family table after' it left the
farm, Mrs. Horrell reported.
The homemaker feels these
high costs when she shops for
food, she noted. However,
higher incomes have cush
ioned the impact of higher
prices. Families have more
money to spend. Before the
war, consumers spent about
23 percent of their take-home
pay for food. Last year, with
food prices up and with more
foods, including more expen
sive ones in the diet, per
capita food expenditures
amounted to only 22 percent
of spendable income.
If shoppers bought only the
same Kinds ana amounts oi
foods that they bought be
fore the war; the food bill
would have added up to less
than 16 percent of last year's
capita spendable income.

Women Needed
In Science Jobs
-United Press International
New York - (UPD - Beauty,
brains, and bunsen burners
make a formula for career and
husband-hunting, says a scien
tist. Dr. Clarence E. Larson, re
search vice president of the
National Carbon company, a
division of the billion-dollar
Union Carbide and Carbon
Corp., says companies must
recruit young scientists on
two age levels. They must
head grade - school children
into science and attract young
women.
Companies need scientists
whether married or unmar
ried, with or without chil
dren. Salaries are good, and
plenty of bachelors are avail
able, he said.
Firms engaged in industrial
research can use about 5,000
more women in important
jobs. They include positions
as chemists, physicists and
biologists. Although women
make up a third of the na
tion's working force, only
about one in 20 scientific
workers is a woman.
There also is a call for labo
ratory assistants who want to
work summers during college.
Agent Lists
Foods Now
Plentiful
Plentiful foods for the
Thanksgiving season include
pork, turkey, top grades of
beef, ham, oysters, cranber
ries, apples, pumpkin, brus-
sels sprouts, cauliflower, tur
nips, broccoli, potatoes, pome
granates, persimmons, grape
fruit and all dairy foods. This
list was supplied by Miss Mary
Pat Lucy, county home exten
sion agent, who invites home
makers to compare these with
the limited fare in the time
of the Pilgrims.
Miss Lucy has compiled
three sample menus using
these foods.
For a company dinner she
suggests pork loin roast with
apple-nut dressing, baked
mashed sweet potatoes or
ya ms with marshmallows,
ripe and green olives, glazed
onions, cranberry gelatin sal
ad, cornbread and butter, Ice
cream atop a slice of pound
cake and chocolate syrup,
milk and coffee.
A meal planned around
broiled or baked ham could
include pineapple slices with
brown sugar, buttered brus
sels' sprouts, cranberry sher-
bert, milk and coffee.
For light refreshments she
suggests cranberry nog, made
with milk and cranberry
juice, and crunch nut cookies.
The extension office will sup
ply recipes for the cranberry
nog. Another suggestion for
light refreshments is cheese
cubes, speared, served with
apples, pears or grapes.

High School Youths
Need Big Breakfasts
Washington -flJPD- If that
boy or girl in your family
is heading for high school
these days, chances are you
should be serving a heartier
breakfast than in previous
years.
Dr. Ruth Leverton, associ
ate director of the agriculture
department's Institute of
Home Economics, says this is
so because high-school boys
and girls are full-blown ado
lescents. According to the expert,
their nutritional needs are
higher than ever before. Boys
need more food than at any
other age and girls more than
most other times in their
lives.
Dr. Leverton said it is dif
ficult or impossible for these
young folks to make up at
other meals, or by in-between
meal snacks, the food missed
at breakfast.
"A little extra morning
sleep is no exchange for a
good breakfast," she added.

of the local station, since con

depend on this. The opera

Mm. Smith planned and
re-planned the home she want
ed. The ono detail that never
changed was the front door.
She knew exactly what she
vsnled-a Colonial door with
)r)g narrow windows at either
phle and staU shaped like an
open fan at the top.
When Smith was adminis
trator and a lecturer at Prince
ton lnlvemity in 1B20, they
bought the site for their home,
near the campus.
W used to drive to Canada
every summer on a fishing
trip," the Senator said. "That
year whi we got to Maine
and, as we , were driving
through Bangor, I saw a house
down the street with the kind
of door my wife wanted. I
stopped the car, pointed the
door out V her and sold I

Buys Door
"I went to tb house, rang
the bell and whm a man an
swered I ld, TJon't think
I'm crazy but I would like
to buy your front door.'
'He replied, 'Don't think
I'm crazy but I don't want to
sell if"
The Bangor man exDlained
th.it the door had been in his
family for more than 150
years. Although disappointed.
omitn gave the man his name
and the address he could be
reacnea in Canada "in case
you change your mind."
"Just hefore we left Can
ada," the Senator said, "I got
a card from the man asking
us 10 stop on the way down.
We did. He said his wife had
always wanted a little porch
in front of the house and if
I would pay for the porch and
a new door, I could have the
old door. I agreed."
The massive Colonial door,
with narrow side windows
and a semi-circular fan of
wooden slats on top, was
taken down and shipped in.
tact to Princeton. Smith
thought the cost of the Ban
gor porch and door ran the
price of his wife's door rather
high. But an expert later told
him that the Colonial door
couldn't have been duplicated
for yiree times what he paid
for it.
With the door in hand, the
Smiths built an early Colonial
house in keeping with it. The
house is an impressive, digni
fied structure of stone and
wood.
The living room, in the
rear, looks out . on a golf
course that occupies the site
of the battle of Princeton in
the Revolutionary War. The
Cleveland tower of the
campus is also part of "the
view," which is framed on
the inside by soft, yelowish
green draperies made of Japa
nese obi silk.
The Senator said the home
is really his wife's because
she did so much planning for
it "but I love it as much as
she does." '

Garbage Can Recommended
The Poultry and Egg Na
tional Board has recipes call-
ing for sausages, prunes, fresh
dill, raisins and burgundy,
cranberries, mince meat, or
of all things crumbled pret
zels instead of bread.
One cook I knew said some
things suggested for stuffing a
turkey these days are better
off stuffing the garbage can-
About the only thing every
one agrees on is: one, the tur
key tastes better stuffed, and
two, the basic ingredients
should include bread, butter
or margarine, onion, pepper,
salt, celery, either sage or
poultry seasoning, and soma
moistening agent such as
plain water.
Avanelle Day, a home
economist and f r i e n d and
one of the best cooks ever to
set a table for a Thanksgiving
feast swears by the turkey
stuffing her mother and
grandmother made at their
home in Rome, Ga.
The recipe, in the . best
Southern tradition, used corn'
bread and was baked in a se
parate pan, not in the bird.
And the turkey was - par
boiled, then, baked, instead of
roasted. Once tender, cooking
time depended on "how tough
the bird was," she said, tht
turkey was removed from the
liquid- about two inches of
water and put into the oven
to be browned.
Used Cornbread
"I don't care what they say
about modern-day roasting,"
she said, "THAT boiled tur
key was good, and the stuf
fing . . ." she got right elo
quent as she described it.
For a 10 or 12 pound tur
key, her mother used about
two-thirds leftover cornbread
and one-third biscuit and or
loaf bread, plus sage, lots of
onion (not sauteed), pepper
and salt, raw eggs and turkey
stock.
The gravy was part stock
and part milk, thickened with
a bit of flour, seasoned with
pepper and onions, with a few
giblets. Sliced hard-cooked
eggs floated on top.
Me, I'm of the wild rict
stuffing school. My recipe
uses rice with sausage meat,
onion, mushrooms, salt and
butter and I've never had
leftover dressing to go with
leftover turkey.
