The spotlight is on baby talk as we celebrate Na tional Baby -Week and count the nation's new noses. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Baby Boom Continues; Processors Anticipate : Food Needs It's another wail of a year but not quite the howling suc cess of 1957 when it comes to counting new baby noses and toeses. For the seventh consecutive year, the tireless stork 'delivered more than 4 million blessed bundles in I960 for .a total exceeding ,247,000. Banner year for babies still is 1957 when the trend-hit 4,301,000. Why all this news about babies? National Baby Week is here. Burgeoning farms all around this great land point to ever expanding crops of vegetables. Many young or chards have been planted within the last five years by foresighted food processors. Long before the prospective mothers are burgeoning, baby food processors are anticipat ing baby s needs. If they wait ed for vital statistics out of Washington, babies would be howling even louder. Infant appetites are prodigious and, since infants come equipped for sound, food had best be forthcoming fast. Amazing Variety Babies are doing extremely well these days with more than 110 strained and junior foods on local shelves; with doctors and nutritionists ad vocating variety in the menu, Furthermore, baby food com panies are working around the clock evidently, develop ing and producing new foods and combinations to meet the demand. Markets offer vast variety in high-in-protein baby foods including several varieties. jof High Meat dinners, mere s high protein cereal with add ed B vitamins and iron and vitamin C; a wide choice of finely strained . fruit juices. Desserts, too. ', , . Toddlers are not forgotten. For . older babies with, teeth and .who eat Junior food items, there are animal-shaped cookies with twice the aver age protein of ordinary cookies; each topped for good measure with a glaze that has important B. vitamins. . . , . Baby Talk About 'v - : ' Multiple Blessings ' Multiple blessings recently made the headlines with the nation rejoicing with ' the Holyoke, .Mass., parents who dazedly welcomed the bir.h of four healthy babies the end of March; learned from the doctor that the odds are 790,000-to-l against the birth of living quadruplets. The in fants, nicely divided between two boys and two girls, join ed a family with six other children including 9-year-old twins. Twin births in the nation seem to be on the increase with one set in every 95 de liveries. The odjis for triplets are one set to every 9,000. Many mothers yearn for "look-alike" twins but the odds are against them. Statis tics claim that -less than 25 per cent are identical. Then there are "mirror twins", fas cinating to study since twin No. 1 does with left hand what No. 2 Is doing with the right. The rest are fraternal twins. Another interesting statistic here. Cases of twins by sex just about average out; almost an equal number of two males, two females and as sorted. Child Study Wisdom '"Treat twins as individuals, not as a team" Is advise from researchers who have studied twins in the family, Some par ents warn against identical toys and clothes. Parents of our pictured twins think it likely that no two sets of twins eat alike, sleep alike or progress alike. When the father of the Delson twins is at home, he takes over one twin, while his wife takes over the other. Parents of singles, twins, quadruplets all agree that life would be tough Indeed without the Infinite variety of baby foods ready to eat and readily available at small cost. High Chair Autocrats Lik Custard Dessarls Over in the gelatines, pud ding mixes department, you'll find great variety in ready-to-cat desserts for the high chair i . set. Rennet powder for almost instant making of many tiny tot dessert specialties is tre mendously popular. - Rennet custards supply milk to babies in a rainbow of eight pretty pastel colors and delicate fla vors. Newest flavor is banana which recently joined vanilla, lemon, . orange, strawberry, raspberry, maple and choco late in rennet powders. Tiny tot custard is quickly made, according - to package directions. ' Remember . that very small fry prefer room temperature desserts. For va riety as baby grows older, top each custard . with whipped cream and arrange a few ani mal crackers In the cream. " Or place one tablespoon prepared baby cereal or cook ed farina in each dessert dish; then pour custard mixture over the cereal. Serve baby's favorite flavor custard topped with a spoon ful of any favored strained or chopped fruit. For exam ple, serve lemon or 'orange custard topped with a spoon f ul of strained or . chopped prunes. Baby Take Juice Break : Even though most babies are put on a three meals a day schedule at an early age, they need a snack to break the monotonv between meals. Most pediatricians recommend fruit juice as the ideal be- tween-meals snack. After nap time, morning and afternoon seems ideal time for a juice break. Orange juice is traditional for babies, but parents of to day's infant prodigies may choose also apple juice, orange-pineapple juice, pine apple-grapefruit juice, orange apple juice, apple-apricot, apple-grape, apple-prune andor vegetable juices, among others. All of these enjoy great popularity at mealtime too; get combined with cereals and go into desserts. Strawberry Angel Pie Extra Fine and Fancy Strawberries of surpassing red, ripe plumpness are com ing into our markets at a glorious rate. They're earlier than usual, seem more lusci ous than usual as well as be ing priced lower than usual this season. Here we put them in an Angel Pie that is fluffy, tender, fine and fancy.

Freezing ham is not recommended for the smoky, cured flavor deterior ates rapidly. When ' opened, canned ham should be used within a few days, ' just as with all fresh meats. Klamath Falls - Land once burned over by an accidental forest fire on Weyerhaeuser Company's Klamath Falls tree farm is getting a new green crop of Ponderosa pine this spring. In an experimental reforest ation program, the company is using machinery to assist Nature. A pair of tractor-driven planting rigs are being used to blanket the area with a quarter of-a-million trees. The two-year-old seedlings will be ready for final har vesting some 120 years from Ltoday, according to Thomas J. Orr, branch forester. Planting, either by hand or machine, is necessary where New Crop Planted : On Weyerhaeuser's Burned-Over Land Solar Cell Could Power Space Shot Washington-tScience Serv-lce)-A new kind of solar cell will probably power future U.- S. space probes. ' s Known as a "solar turbo electric" cell, the unit would convert the sun's rays into energy for powering satellites or deep space probes, two Na tional Aeronautics and Space administration scientists said here. : The 3,000-watt power unit has a 32-foot diameter para bolic mirror that collects the sun's rays .' and concentrates them on -a mercury boiler. The heat of the sun's rays is absorbed by the boiler and converted Into power. :; -The new kind of solar cell is still primarily experiment al, Dr. Hugh L. Dryden, dep uty administrator of NASA, and Dr. A. E. von Doenhoff, also of NASA, told the . Na tional Acaademy of , Science meeting here. They hope to have one available that would last three months by 1984. The unit is currently being developed by TAPCO division of Thompson ; Ramo Woold- ridge, Inc., of Cleveland, Ohio. MOVE BY TRUCK ' New Orleans - Ninety per cent of the Louisiana shrimp crop, which makes up 70 per cent of U.S. production, moves to market , in refrigerated trucks. natural seeding has failed. Aerial seeding east of the Cas- cades has had only limited success due to seed-eating rodents and other problems. Machines, commonlv used in the southern pine region, are being tried at Klamath Falls with the hope that their deep furrows will provide seedling roots with more mois ture during the dry season. Many of the slopes are rela tively gentle and suitable for this type operation. Before the machines went in, salvable timber from the 1955 burn was removed and large snags were felled to re duce fire ha7arH nnrt hrapHtnir space for bark beetles. ' However, considerable de bris and stumps remain which would be in the way of the planting machines. To make a clear path, one tractor has a front V-blade and the other an angle blade. The V-blade, specially designed for this type work, is used where the brush is extra heavy. Grass, which competes with seedlings for moisture, is turned over at the same time. The planting machine also loosens the soil. , Three-Man Crew It takes a three-man crew to keep the planters going at their maximum. One man op erates the tractor while th other two take turns sitting on - the planting machine. When not hunched over the machine, the third man fol lows behind to make sure the seedlings are firmly rooted. Rows are eight feet apart with spacing six feet. When hand planting, the spacing and the rows both are seven feet. The different arrange ment Is used to get the maxi mum number of trees planted by the machines. Experiment al plots indicate the closer spacing stimulates growth in young trees. Apparently the competition for sunlight fos ters growth upward. The machine makes a shal low ditch for the row of seed lings. This serves a dual pur pose. It gives some protection from the hot drying winds o summer and serves to collect the limited rainfall.. Foresters hope for approxi mately 80 per' cent survival of the tender plants. . NEW! CREAMY ALOHA DRESSING FOR HAWAIIAN FRUIT SALAD Blend together H cup . Best Foods whipped.
