MEDFORD, OREGON Holiday Venison Recipes From Home and Abroad Those fortunate enough to have venison in their freezers or lock ers may be interested in new ways to prepare it, especially for the holiday season. Published here are two reci pes, the first from "The Venison Book: How To Dress, Cut Up and Cook Your Deer," by Aud rey. Alley Gorton, from the Ste phen Greene Press, Brattleboro, Vt., and the other, "Saddle of Venison," from the famed Son nenhof Hotel in Vaduz, the prin cipal city of the tiny principality of Liechtenstein Venison Pot Roast With Vegetables There's no more satisfying dinner for a closed-in winter evening than one of venison pot roast, served in a ring of its own vegetables with plenty of crusty French bread. It can hold its own as a "company" dish and has an added attraction in that it does not require intense last-minute attention. The recipe requires a three to four-pound venison pot roast; one-fourth cup salt pork, cubed small; two tablespoons butter; six carrots; six small onions; six small potatoes; one stalk celery; one teaspoon parsley flakes; one-fourth teaspoon thy me; one cup dry white wine; salt and pepper and one and one-half cups hot water. Lard the roast well by insert ing cubes of salt pork into crev ices of the meat. Heat butter in a Dutch oven or deep casser ole and brown the meat on all sides. Add the hot water, wine, carrots, onions, celery, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook Gently Cover and cook gently for three hours on top of the stove or in the oven, or until the meat is tender. (Simmering is impor tant: it keeps the meat tender and juicy and prevents the veg etables from disintegrating.) If the liquid gets too low, add wa ter, or water and wine in the proportion started with. About 30 minutes before the meal is to be served, add the potatoes, peeled and halved, cor recting the seasoning, since po tatoes tend to draw saltiness from the liquid. When the po tatoes are done, remove the meat and the vegetables, dis carding the celery if it is be draggled. If necessary, reduce th liquid rapidly over high heat while keeping the pot roast and the vegetables hot. Arrange the meat and vegetables on a deep hot platter, pour some of the pot-liquor over the top, put the rest in a gravy boat, and serve. Audrey Gorton's little venison cookbook has information on shootin, dressing, cutting, freez ing, and cooking deer meat. The author of "The Venison Book" cautions: "The main thing to remember is that veni son is wonderful eating: don't apologize for it."

Freo " Use Parking Area at Our Door comes this recipe for a delect able holiday dinner to delight your family and friends at Christmas time. I Although the original recipe calls for a saddle of venison, you can substitute a rump roast instead. Saddle of Venison Three-pound roast of venison (or beef), rump cut or blade cut pot roast; dry white wine; three carrots; si.Y. stalkpf cel ery; three small onions; 20 pep percorns; six ounces conac; one teaspoon basil; one-half tea spoon thyme; six ounces sour cream; salt, pepper, lemon juice; pineapple; cooked pears and peaches; lingonberries (cranberry preserves will work as well). Procedure Marinate the rump roast in the dry white wine for two days, turning often. When you are ready to cook the roast, remove it from the marinade and brown the roast in a hot oven approximately 20-25 minutes until lightly brown ed. Then add the chopped vege tables and the peppercorns to the roast and let them brown also. Add the cognac to the wine from the marinade along with basil and thyme. Add this liquid to the roast and braise until the meat is done. Remove meat from the pan, slice and place on a hot platter. To the juices remaining in the pan, add the sour cream, salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Pour sauce over meat, garnish platter with pineapple slices, cooked pears and peaches filled with lingonberries or cranber ries. Serve with buttered noodles. Serves five. Decorations Made By Club ASHLAND Fragrance of pine and brilliance of holly and poinsettia filled the civic club rooms Monday as Garden club members fashioned Christmas decorations. The holiday work shop has become a traditional event that produces unusual and effective ornaments, wreaths, door swags and center pieces which are sold at the club's Flea Market booth in the Armory. At noon a covered dish lunch eon was served by Mrs. Bill Sampson, Mrs. E. T. Carlton and Mrs. O. C. Maust from a lone table centered with a can dle-lit Delia Robia wreath of cones, nuts and greenery.

CHRISTENSEIM -mil Bumper Card Crop Predicted By Gay Pauley NEW YORK (UPI) - Stamp, stamp stamp, the cards are marching, some 3.25 billion of them through the mails this Christmas. So reports the greeting Card Association, which adds that more than 50,000 designs have been created for the 1963 sea son. The association, represent ing the bulk of the manufactur ers, made no estimate on how much will be spent on Yuletide greetings. But the president ot one tirm which said it alone will sell about 300 million cards estimat ed the total retail value of this bumper crop of Merry Christ mases at $616 million. The firm, American Greetings Corp., Cleveland, Ohio, figured further that each family on the aver age will purchase 60 cards this year and receive about the same number. One of the factors in that $b!6 million estimate of sales is the trend to purchase of costlier greetings. American Greetings mentioned cards retailing ai 50 cents and $1.00. These come in tapestry designs, with cutout sections, with gold teat Doraers, and special attachments which could be anything from wisps of cotton for Santa's beard to plas tic cornucopias, said American Greetings' president, Irving I. Stone. Both the Greeting Card Asso ciation and American Greetings agreed that designers are put ting religion back into Christ mas greetings. Field said that in 1950, reli gious cards accounted for less than five per cent of Christmas sales. Today, the figure is about 20 per cent. Disappearing trom tne scene are the "sick" sentiments of studio cards. In their place are more conventional cards with conventional sentiments. The basic Christmas symbols holly, poinsettia and Santa are still by far tne most popu lar. One of the best-known collec tions cards those painted for the American Artists Group, Inc. New York this year retell the birth of Christ, of scenes hark ing back to the artists' child hood in the country, and of man's yearnings for peace. Special cards for special peo ple cover a tremendous range for '63 said the association. There are cards for assorted relatives, for the neighbors, doc tors, nurses, the milkman, the pacer boy, tne Doss and tne minister or priest. 7 DLLIVMlli:) TO YOUR for as little as Economy straight-stitch $ model.
