8 B THURSDAY, JUNE 14. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor DAIRY PRODUCTS FEATURED AS COWS TAKE EOWS IN CELEBRATION OF JUNE DAIRY MONTH BOUNTY The cows of the nation are busy taking bows for excel lence in all areas of produc tion, and dairymen are taking pride in their performance as everyone, consumers and all, celebrate June Dairy Month. It is a time of uper abund ance of nature's most nearly perfect food; a time for put ting more milk and dairy products in our menus. Oregon's dairymen may well take pride also in their own performance since they are responsible tor '.ne ioiiow ing facts and figures: Oregon cows,' according to newest cow-counting meuioas, number around 162,000 and t h e v produce considerably more than 1 billion pounds of milk annually. The average production per cow is 7,060 pounds which is considerably above the average of most other states. Over lZ'a mil lion pounds of butter, 20 'i million pounds of cheese other than cottage, 5'i mil lion gallons of ice cream and 12'4 million pounds of cot tage cheese account for part of the bounty of our - state's bovlnes. Value of Oregon cows alone exceeds $29 million without reference to farm values, housing, equipment, process ing plants, payrolls and other factors essential to getting their product to the consumer. Dairying accounts for 11.6 per cent ot uregon s casn farm income. Good Tim To Take Inventory of Dairy Items i Milk and dairy products are essential in the daily diet of every person in order to help maintain optimum vim, vigor and vitality according to nu tritionists everywhere. "Eat milk or drink it," say nutri tionists, who suggest that now Is a good time for consumers to take inventory and to analyze their use of the 21 readily available dairy prod ucts with reference to family needs, pocketbooks and con venience. ' Fresh fluid milk is avail able as whole milk, 2 per cent milk, skim milk and as flavored milk drink. Inexpemiv v a p o r a led milk and nonfat dry milk on the pantry shelf often means added convenience and money saved. Canned condensed milk has special fascination for dessert makers. Fresh creams include cream for whipping for wonderful dessert uses, ail-purpose cream for use just as it in dicates and hali -and - half which enjoys tremendous popularity for cereals, for cof fee and for medium-ricn sauces and other ingredient purposes. Dairy sour cream, yogurt and buttermilk are popular dairy products with dairy sour cream continuing to zoom in popularity for serv ing with fresh fruits and ber ries as well as for distinctive salad dressings; main dish making. Cheese Variety. Our state takes pride in many cheese specialties. Cottage cheese, Cheddar cheese and creain cheese are staples in many home refrigerators for daily use In some way. Cold Stuff. In freezer com partments we find amazing variety in ice cream, ice milk. imitation ice cream, imitation Ice milk, and sherbets. Fact that half gallon size packages account for far and away the major' portion of the indus try s frozen desserts attests to increasing popularity. Butter, darling of many fine cooks as well as being the prestige spread, is in creasing in production in our state, increasing right along in imports from other areas too. Make Pappy Happy with Sipping Soups, Sandwich Makings, Block of Cheese Father likes ' steaks and prime ribs of beef and fried chicken and chocolate cake, and he's likely to have these favored foods at the main meal of the day.

Savory Soup Combos For generous ladling into cups or mugs lor sipping, we've dreamed up some new savory, flavory soup combina tions . that are taste-teasing. For each 6 servings, quickly put together from items on the pantry shelf and topped with a dollop of whipped cream, dairy sour cream or, a generous pat of butter, pro ceed like this: Green Pea-Mushroom Soup. In saucepan combine and stir 1 can (11 ounces) condensed green pea soup and 1 can (lO'i ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup until smooth. Gradually blend in 1 soup can milk and 1 soup can water.

Steak de luxe is from 2 to 3 inches thick, charcoaled on the outside, pink on the in side. Marinade in any favored mix or leave plain. Allow at least '2 pound per serving. , If very thick steaks are out of the question, have your steak at least 1 inch thick. Grill a .1 inch steak over glowing coals about 5 minutes on each side if you want it rare; 6 minutes on each side for medium-done and 7 min utes on each side for well done. Two inch steak, charcoal broiled, takes much longer. Figure 16 minutes on each side for rare, 18 minutes for medium-done and 20 minutes for well-done. The thicker, the longer. Extensive Changes in Dietary Fat Intake Not Advised With reference to the label ing of fats and oils or other fatty substances being offered reduction of blood cholesterol levels and for the prevention of disease of heart or arteries, George P. Larrick, Commis sioner of the Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Depart ment of Health, Education, and Welfare, stated, "The role of cholesterol in heart and artery diseases has not been established. A casual relation ship between blood choles terol levels and these diseases has not been proved. The ad visability of making exten sive changes in the nature of the dietary fat intake of the people of this country has not been demonstrated." Two Doctors, Lawyer Discuss Proposed Medical Care Bill Two doctors and a Medford lawyer discussed the proposed King-Anderson bill for medi cal care through Social Se curity for persons after 65 years old at the Medford Chamber of Commerce legis lative committee meeting yesterday at the Medford ho tel. Speaking in favor of the bill was William Deatherage. He cited six points for the bill: that the aged have high med ical care costs, have reduced incomes, private insurance can't meet needs, does not have a charity approach, peo ple prefer to obtain benefits 'from something they have contributed to, and Social Security now covers nine of ten workers. Opposing the bill were Dr. Alvin Roberts and Dr. Ralph Hibbs who referred to it as a "poor" bill. They said that the King Anderson bill is for hospital costs only, and then only for 90 days of which $90 must be paid by the patient, follow ed by a maximum of 180 days in nursing homes. They ob jected to the fact that hos pitalization was necessary be fore a person could benefit from the bill. Bill Not Sufficient Deatherage charged that the present Kerr-Mills bill passed in 1961 is not suf ficient. Under this bill state and federal funds are match ed to pay imedical bills for persons over 65 not on wel fare, who have income and as sets less than a set amount. He objected to the means test, while the doctors stated that this is presently required before treatment in Veterans Administration hospital?. The doctors and several members of the group ob jected to the increase in So cial Security payments for the young worker. Dr. Roberts mentioned that he had found that the younger families have a bigger problem in paying medical bills than the older persons. Not Being Frank The doctors charged that persons in favor of the King Anderson bill are not being frank about future plans. They said that the plan's costs would have to be revised less than two years after it is in effect. Dr. Hibbs called the Kerr Mills bill effective, saying that it pays for all doctor, drugs, and hospital costs less S50 while the King-Anderson bill is only for hospitalization. Doctor's fee under the Kerr Mills bill is 80 per cent of the welfare fee schedule. Deatherage compared the King-Anderson bill to the Hill-Burton bill under which federal matching funds are available to construct hospi tals. Dr. Hibbs disputed this, saying that the government did not retain administration control over Hill - Burton funds, which he felt would be the case under the King Anderson bill. He further objected to the King-Anderson bill's covering all persons over 65 years of age regardless of financial status. He cited several sur veys of hospital patients in which from 60 to 83 per cent had private funds or insur ance, the majority of the others received welfare or Kerr-Mills funds, with only 8 to 10 per cent needing extra financial assistance. Dr. Hibbs explained that socialized medicine in Eng land has cost from five to six times the original estimate. The doctors pointed out that many of England's doctors now are from foreign coun tries, while the English edu cated doctors are coming to the United States and Canada. Doctors are now coming to the United States for ad vanced study, they said, when not too many years back persons here went to Europe and England for medical study. It was noted that Eng land has constructed only one new hospital since 1948, and that many of them are more than 100 years old. Whether Americans want socialized midicine is a ques tion that must be answered by each individual in con sidering the bill, Dr. Hibbs explained. Once the govern ment gets in the door, it will be getting into the medical field moie and more, they said. "The King-Anderson bill will not affect me at all," Dr Hibbs. continued, "but I am concerned about the govern ment in the business of dis pensing medical care. This indirectly affects my practice and will hurt the quality of medical care." he said. During a discussion session, persons suggested , a medical care insurance plan on the state level. Although it was mentioned that any plan should be vol untary, Dr. Hibbs admitted that those in later life who will need it are generally those who would not take out insurance while young. One suggestion was to make a state medical insur ance mandatory, but give the person a choice of private or state programs. Board Declines fo Accept Programs At Institutions Salem-HTH-The State Board of Education Wednesday de clined to accredit teacher edu cation programs at Pacific University, Forest Grove, and at Cascade College, Portland, to the extent requested. Instead of extending Pa cific's accreditation to four years the board extended it to two. Cascade also got a two year accreditation, in stead of three years. Discuss Situation Board members expressed concern over quality of the teacher training programs at both schools. Conferences with school officials will be held to discuss the situation, a spokesman said. The board okayed Portland State College's first teacher intern program, to start this fall. It will be a limited pro gram of not more than 10 persons because PSC will con duct tight screening of appli cants. - Earlier this year the board approved similar teacher in tern programs at the Univer sity of Oregon, and at Oregon College of Education.
