The Country kitchen has long been
a symbol of good cooking. There is
nothing fancy about country cooking,
just wonderfully good food such as:
old fashioned pan rolls, fiaky- crusted
pies, high biscuits, rich soups and fine
meaty gravies. And from the cellar
storage room, such choice treats as:
peach pickles, rosy crab apples, and
jars and jars of crisp cucumber
pickles, preserves, jams, and jellies.
The country cook is plain cook, but
country cooked foods have honest
f1aVorS.
| think by now you must be drOol-
ing, just reading about these good
foods, so here are some recipes such
as you might find coming from one
of these kitchens:

remaining ingredients. Cover and

Truck Tire Chains

PUTTING CHAINS on a farm truck
is easy even if the truck is loaded.
Take a foot long AKA, cut notch in it
big enough to lay a cross chain in,
then put the block notch up in front of
the wheel. Lay cross chain in the
notch and drive the wheel onto the
block. This leaves the cross chain in
the bottom notch loose and free for
easy Tightening. This is quicker and
safer than using "a jack.-H. M.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
By GRETCHEN G. BILLINGS

Governor Aronson has appointed
E. ]. Byrne of Toole county to the
State Board of Equalization to fill
the unexpired term of the late Archie
Simon who died about six months
ago.
Mr.. Byrne is a Democrat. He serv-
ed in five sessions of the legislature
and one special session. He was ma
iority leader in 1885 and 1941.
The appointment of Democrat at
this time to fill the uneXpired term
was expected, because it will now
give Aronson a six-year appointment
for a Republican before March, 1865.
The terms of the present members
run so: J. F. Reid-1959, Cal Rob-
inson-1955. and E. J. Byrne-1957.
When you read the story on the
Milk Control Board notice the figures
that show income and those that show
how much the legislature has approp-
rated that Board. A process of ad-
dition and subtraction shows that at
the end of six years from 1949-1955
milk producers in Montana will have
contributed to the general fund out
of money paid as "fees for services"
about $4,000, above and beyond
what they received back to run the
Milk Control Board business. This is
one of the examples of a sort of
double taxation.
The milk producers in six years
nave contributed for services they
never received, enough money to run
he State Treasurer's office for one
year.

The CRDC plan does not pro-
vide for the condemnation of local
electric facilities, as the early pro-
posals of eva did, Billingto ton, said.
Also, the CRDC would not need
congressional appropriations for its
yearly operations, and would not
take over functions of Bureau of
Reclamation and Army Engineers,
nor exercise control over fish and
wildlife, minerals and forests, as
the eva proposed to do, Ellington
added.
The influential Portland (Oregon)
OREGONIAN declared itself strongly
in favor of 'fhe establishment of a
regional power corporation to absorb
the Bonneville Power Administration
and to build new dams and transmits
sion lines, with financing to be OBJ
tanned by sale of revenue bonds. This
is the highest type of a federal
regional partnership plan we have
been able to envisage."
1t is expected that NWPPA will

''The plant has been located at what

Next day, Maj. Gen. Bernard L.

Morse Salisbury, Acc information

Two others, besides Strauss, had
said army engineers okayed the site.
Aces assistant general manager,
R. w. Cook, told the House-Senate
atomic energy committee November
II, "The corps of engineers has APP

Middle South Utilities president and
major partner in the deal, said in a
radio-TV interview, December 5,
that the site "has been thoroughly
checked with the army engineers.
DR.. Frederic H. Kellogg, dean, of
University's engineering
school, told Securities & Exchange
Commission December Fl that a plant
at West Memphis "would involve
costs arising from foundation soil and
river conditions" such as to make
overall costs significantly higher
than if the plant were built else
where.

their income on what is supposed to
be a pro-rata of what it costs to run
the department? Unless the milk
producers receive back for their de-
partment what they put into it how
are they going to pro-rate their fees?
1t would make little difference if
they were charged one dollar or one

give them back the money to get
