Its place may I m - taken by an "EDP P-O-S" machine-- an electronic data processing point-of-sale terminal. It looks like a glorified adding machine and can do everything a cash register can do, only faster. In addition, the EDP P-O-S machine can "read" prices of items, print out a charge slip, keep a running account of pur chased items, and aid in in ventory. It can even 6e pro grammed to forecast sales. For the retailer, the advan tages are obvious. For the con sumer, the super-registers should mean faster checkouts, greater accuracy, and less un der-stocking ot popular mer chandise. « • » MEDALLION (Plant Pat.

The Com mission will use it in the in vestigation of product safety and flammability standards. In your letter, describe the type of plastic--foam, rigid, or flexible--and how it was used--as wall insulation, room divider, chair cushion, for ex- use of your landscaping dollars.

In addition we are receiving this biennium from The Easy federal the government $748,000,000 which almost exactly equals the amount of general fund money spent by the state. The Governor’s pro posed general fund budget for this biennium is $1,015,000,000 and Oregon has been expecting $852,000,000 in federal funds. If President Nixon’s cuts in revenue sharing are carried out Oregon will lose between $85,- 000,000 and $100,000,000 and no one will know until long after the current legislative session is over.

Now the State of Oregon will have to double its expenditures for the library or cut library ser vices in half. The President’s budget inclu des the total elimination of cate gorical grants for education. Though there will undoubtedly be replacement money, the amount is uncertain. Faced with the dilemma of not knowing what the Congress will do to the (»resident’s bud get, the Governor and the lea ders of the House and Senate have just decided that for those state agencies which are sig nificantly dependent on federal funds the current legislature will only establish a one-year budget, and that the legislature will come back in special ses sion sometime in 1974 after the smoke of battle has cleared in Washington, D. C. to determine at that point what should be done for the budgeting for the second year of the biennium. There was no other responsible way of proceeding. Sometimes it is argued that federal dollars when they come to the state are "free” dollars. These dollars of course come from the taxpayers like any other dollars. Now it appears that the federal dollars at least if President Nixon’s cuts are carried out are not only not “free” dollars but are very uncertain dollars. Flavor Magic Now is the time for all crea tive cooks to come to the aid of the food budget' With a little imagination and practice we can have more interesting meals at considerably less cost. There are an increasing num ber of so-called "convenience foods” in the supermarket which are costly and save little or no time. Most of the extra cost is for seasoning • know how". There are, for instance, a wide variety of seasoningmix tures to use in sauces, gravies, meat loaf, casserole dishes, beef stew, or as a coating for meat and poultry. These pac kets, containing enough season ing for one recipe, range in price from about 25 to 40 cents. There are also increasing numbers of casserole dishes which include a cereal product such as noodles, rice, or ma caroni and a packet of season ing. To this you add a pound of ground meat, a can oi tuna, or perhaps a chicken . . . depending on the package direc tions. When you start to [i- gure out the cost of these pro ducts you find you are paying a premium price for the sea soning ‘'know-how”. One pack aged product contains about 17? of macaroni and a packet of seasoning. The total price of the item is 62? which means 45? for the seasoning. In these times of rising prices one way to help keep the food budget inline is to prepare more foods from scratch, using ima gination and the guidance of a good cookbook to create tasty foods for the family. To do this we need a variety of sea sonings in the cupboard. USE YOUR IMAGINATION’ Feel free to experiment and use your imagination’ Withover sixty spices, herbs, blends, and salts to choose from, you can transform a routine meal into an adventure. Browse through the spice section next time you are shopping. Many new and interesting ways to use the spices are printed right on the container. Buy a different spice each week until you have a complete spice shelf of your own! SOME GENERAL GUIDES AND DEFINITIONS MAY HELP YOUR •SPICE MANS HIP" •Experiment with spices that you do not know well. Add them in small amounts and sample for taste before adding more. Start with just a pinch or 1/4 teaspoon and increase. You should know that something has been added, but not what. If a flavor shouts at you, you have used too much! •Remember, ground spices are stronger than whole spices and dried herbs are stronger than fresh herbs. •Introduce only one flavor at a time. Most people pre fer the familiar when it comes to choosing food. Do not over whelm the palate with too many new flavors at once. A new salad dressing is enough for one meal. It would be unwise to press your luck by trying the herb meatloaf recipe and the dill flavored beans at the same time. •To release flavors, pulve rize dried herbs in the palm of your hand before adding. When using fresh herbs, remove leaves from stems and snip into very fine pieces with scissors.
