Show THE SALT LAKE TIMES FRIDAY, MARCH 2, 1962 Page Nine Idahoan Will Head Farm Organization VERNON JENSEN Vernon Jensen of Preston, Idaho, was elected president of the Intermountain Farmers As-sociation at the 39th annual meeting of the organization Sat-urday at the Hotel Utah. About 400 members were in attendance. Alton S. Gadd of Nephi was named first vice-preside- nt; E. Smith Peterson of Salina was elected second vice-preside- nt; and Morris Smith of Genola, Utah was named third vice-preside- nt. C. K. Ferre of Salt Lake City continues as secretary and general manager. Two new directors were elect-ed at the meeting: R. D. Buchan-an of Richfield and Clifford Pul-ley of American Fork. Three other directors were re-elect- ed to three-yea- r terms. They were, C. O. Robert of Henefer, Theron Campbel of Providence; and E. Smith Peterson of Salina. Mr. Campbell was the retiring presi-dent. The hold-ove- r directors in-clude: J. Arza Adams of Pleasant Grove; LeRoy R. Koyle of Span-ish Fork; and William H. Schorr of West Jordan. Carl Frischknecht, director of the extension service at the Utah State University who will retire soon, was given a plaque in ap-preciation for his work in the poultry and turkey fields in Utah. President Carmobell. in his re- - port to members, announced that the association had done a gross business of more than $12,000,-00- 0 for the 12 months of 1961. He reported a substantial de-crease in egg producers with many of them, particularly in the northern part of the state, leaving agriculture to go into in-dustry. C. K. Ferre, general manager, outlined plans for new merchan-dising plans for 1962 with special emphasis of production and de-livery of bulk feeds and fertiliz-ers. He reported that the federal "drought grain" program had cut heavily into the normal feed pro-gram but pointed hopefully to increased feed sales in all 26 plants of the association in 1962. report in the Journal of Ameri-can Dietetic Association, the Astronaut should eat at two to three hour intervals to insure an optimal state of nutrition. Foods recommended for con-sumption while in flight, accord-ing to this report, consist of a variety of sandwiches; meat such as beef, turkey, and ham; fruit sauces, fruit juice, chocolate drinks, cookies and candy. Solid foods are provided in bite-siz- e, individually wrapped pieces. ri?anrntsiouahps oshrdluetaoin Liquids and semi-solid- s are in collapsible squeeze tubes. Con sumption of a multivitamin prep-aration during flight is recom-mended, since experimental data indicate beneficial effects from water-colubl- e vitamins during stress, the report states. In addition, the Astronaut Nutrition Experts Laboring to Devise Space Diet What does a spaceman eat and drink? While thousands of physicists engineers and electronics experts worked to bring Project Mercury to its successful climax, other scientists anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists were working out a life support sys-tem that would enable Astronaut John H. Glenn, Jr. and his suc-cessors to survive their journeys into space. And at the same time, nutrition experts have been laboring for! years to develop special diets' and methods of eating for space , travelers. Although feeding Astronaut Glenn on his short 4 --hour trip was not a critical factor, it will become to in 1963 when 24-ho- ur orbits are scheduled and later when trips to the moon and bey-ond are planned. must be provided with drinking water, approximately 100 ouncer for each day of flight. Evidence that this type of diet is acceptable, and even pleasant comes from a report by Soviet Cosmonaut Gherman Titov ("Space World," January, 1962) who stated: "In the main, drinking and eating in space was as easy as on the earth. According to the schedule, I had my dinner and supper, then breakfast the next morning. Apart from the tubed food. I also ate solid kinds of food, biting off small pieces of bread and chewing them. I also swallowed vitamin pills. And of course, I drank water from a special device." As for future, long-distan- ce flights, nutritionists now are ex-perimenting with algae which will be carried in the space cap-sule not only to provide food but to take carbon dioxide from the These nutritionists had to de-sign a diet for the Astronaut which would bring him to peak condition before the flight, and to keep him fit during the round-the-worl- d trip. Pre-flig- ht feeding, for 72 hours prior to blast-of- f, consists of a high-protei- n, low residue diet Immediately prior to take-of- f, the Astronaut ate a high-carbohydra- te, moderate-protei- n, low-fa- t meal, consisting of orange juice, scrambled eggs, filet mignon, toast and jelly and de-caffeinated coffee. In-flig- ht feeding presented many new problems for scien-tists. According to nutritionist Beatrice Finkelstcin of the Aero Medical Laboratory at Wright-Patterso- n Air Force Base in a air and convert it into life-supporti- ng oxygen. In even the more distant fu-ture, some scientists think that they may have the answer to the space traveler's food problem. According to aero medical expert Lt. Col. John Wichman, research-ers, are now studying the effect of hypothermia (low tempera-tures) on man. It may be found that periods of hypothermia can be controlled, thus prolonging man's life for longer and longer space flights, as well as helping solve the food problems, accord-ing to Dr. Wichman. Thus, deep freeze may become as important to the spaceman as it is today for his super-marketin- g, earth-boun- d companions. COP Women Chart Birthday Event A reunion of every chairman and every assistant chairman of the Republican National Com-mittee who has held office since 1953 will highlight a mammoth GOP birthday celebration Sun-day evening, April 15, in Wash-ington, D.C. The event will kick off the tightly-schedule- d three-da- y pro-gram of the Tenth Anniversary Republican Women's Conference, booked for April 15 to 17 at the Statler Hilton. Assistant GOP Chairman Mrs. Clare B. Williams, director of the Conference, announced to-day that acceptances have been received from former GOP Chairmen Leonard W. Hall, Meade Alcorn and Thruston B. Morton, present Chairman Will-iam E Miller and former Assis-tant Chairman Bertha S. Adkins. All of these leaders will be honor guests at the Sunday night re-ception. 40 of Families Have More Than Single Income Look around the neighbor-hood, and chances are statisti-cally, at any rate that 2 out of 5 families will have more than one wage-earne- r. Look next year and there'll probably be more of these fami-lies. In the last five years, "multi-earner- " families have been in-creasing at an average of 3 per cent annually, which is to say that in an average year there are 103 such families where there were only 100 the previous year. With more families becoming "multi-earner- " families, the In-stitute of Life Insurance points out, all statistics seem to indi-cate that by 1970 at least half the homes in the United States will have more than one wage-earne- r. Maybe more people will be gulping their coffee in the morning but they'll bring home the bacon at night. The development of the "multi-earner- " family involves women primarily, because in the typical family with a second earner, the wife is very apt to be that earner. (In other homes with more than one earner, they are usually grown children still living with their families.) Women take jobs outside the home for a multitude of reasons. The basic one, of course, is to add to family income. Often a wife works to help with a major financial goal the purchase of a home, a new car, college edu-cation for a youngster. Many a wife has gone to work with the thought of adding to her family's funds for retirement. A woman may have other rea-sons for working. A wife in her 40's, her children grown, may feel herself free now to take a job where she can put her edu-cation to use, or once again em-ploy the skills she developed in her job before marriage. How much money working wives contribute to family in-come varies widely. Three things are involved: the nature of the job, whether a wife works full-tim- e or part-tim- e, and the extra expenses related to the job. Most women realize that with a job they will spend more for cloth-ing, cosmetics, beauty narlor services and transportation than a full-tim- e homemaker. They may not realize the degree of the added expense of meals and household upkeep. In one Geor-gia locality checked by Depart-ment of Agriculture home econ-omists, working wives with mod-est earnings reported that about half their income was consumed by all expenses related to their jobs. Nevertheless, for the nation as a whole, wives who work full-tim- e do boost their family in-come considerably; they contrib-ute 38 per cent of their families' incomes, on an average. Fre-quently it is the wife's earnings that raise her family into the middle income group. As the De-partment of Labor found recent-ly, among families in the $7,000 to $10,000 income bracket where wives worked, they brought home, on the average, 30 per cent of the family's total spending power. A wife who works at a 30b outside her home very often comes away with more than extra income for her family and re-newed job satisfactions for her-self. Many working wives have employee benefits such as group life insurance and health insta-nce, and group annuities. Their group life insurance represents additional family financial pro-tection; their group health insur-ance protects against hospital and often other medical costs; and their group annuity will add a regular income after retire-ment. jj g YE INTELLIGENT BUYER'S GUIDE TO FINEST LIQUORS H I NOW THIS OLD KENTUCKY FAVORITE IS A I 1 ffl GREATER-THAN-EVE- R VALUE!
