SARVICE BERRIES
WILL SOLVE FOOD
PROBLEM HE SAYS

Ii the people of Umatilla county

to be made easier in these PARTS. AS
solution to the food problem. he de
clares he has located enough sarvice
berries to feed the allied army. In
a letter to the east Oregonian this
morning, he writes as follows
East Oregonian. Pendleton, Ore.
Gentlemen:-Some people are talk
ing of the high cost of living and the
high cost of fruit. l have Just come
back from my fall grouse hunt and
l have decided that there is enough
sarvice berries up in south canyon
to fill every empty jar in Umatilla
county one canyon was up will
afford piCkers a weeks job and not
go a quarter of a mile
Lots Of people are superstitious of
this berry and some hunters claim
that if you eat too many they will do
everything from acting as an emetic
to giving you hydrophobia bur. If so.
all our grouse would be dead a long
time ago.
I picked a gallon and brought
home and had them made up into
butter according to a recipe or one
Of our old neighbors and l claim
there is no better berries grown.
I believe there is enough berries
growing on these slopes that can be
gotten at with a car TO feed the nj
lies even though we are short on
wheat.
These berries must De picked in the
next week to be saved. If anybody
wants to come up l will direct them
to the proper place and If the en-
tire Pend eton population comes
can send them in one canyon and
give them weeks job and then have
enough berries left to feed the hirds.
A person can gather about five gal
Ions in one day.
Yours truly.

economical way so that the best pos

able We shall not bake bread We
shall hope by providing nourishing and
palatable meals to get people to eat
more Of their meat ration and SO light
en- the consumption OF bread. which is
the most important thing just now We
shall take foods that are com paratively
plentiful, such as sailed fish which is
coming on the market in large quanti-
ties, and make il into a great variety
OF attractive dishes II is not q cues

that the sound scientific handling OF
