The barn, owned by Jack Allaway, was completely destroyed, as were were also some $2000 in household furnishings and personal belongings stored inside it. The newly-purchased fire truck of the Ercill Wilson Logging Co. arrived on the scene soon after the alarm and was closely followed by Keith Phillips, fire warden, with a fire truck. Mill City and Stayton fire departments arrived in record time and assisted in keeping the blaze from spreading.

Oregon homemakers will be chalking up time and money saved as the result of recent legislation permitting sale of colored marga rine throughout the state beginning in August. Statistics obtained in a nation wide survey show the average mar garine user has been spending ap proximately 10 minutes coloring each pound of the product used as a table spread. W. H. Brice, in charge of Swift & Company’s All sweet Margarine Sales in Oregon, pointed out this time saving on each pound of margarine will amount to hundreds of work-hours during the next year. He added that the Institute of Margarine Manufacturers has reported U. S. homemakers last vear wasted ap proximately 8 million hours color ing white margarine alone An appreciable saving in money as well as time will be made by eliminating waste that occurs in the home coloring process. Brice added. Tests reveal that approxi mately four percent of each pound of margarine colored in the home sticks to sides of the coloring bowl and is generally not recovered by table or cooking use It has been estimated that more than 35 million pounds of margarine were wasted in the country as i whole in thia manner.
