The booklet is available free from USU, Bulletin Room, Ag. Science Building or from County Home Agents.

Other hints available in the booklet include best buys in eggs, cost of different milk forms, best buys in vegetables and fruits, meat alternates and nutrition information. The booklet which is published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, also outlines what you should be paying each Week for food, using low cost, moderate and liberal plans for different in-- : comes. Mrs. Bardwell noted that in a recent gronup of nearly 400 Utah spent less than the average estimated cost. However, the foods you select,. where you live, how much fod you prepare yourself, and how carefully you plan and buy all have an effect on the total food budget, she said. Mrs. Bardwell stressed that the amount of money you spend does not automatically lead to meals. Only a variety of different kinds of food will supply the nutrients needed for growth and good health. Stretching food dollars in todays well stocked markets is a challenge to most shoppers, regardless of income. For those on a limited budget, it is a continuing concern and wise :food purchases may be the difference in going without or the purchase of a few luxury items, she concluded. well-balanc- ed Page Nine Seek Safe Sledding Areas Warns Utah Safety Council With many weeks of winter weather still facing Utah residents, the Utah Safety Council warned both parents and children to chose safe areas for sledding activities. While few children are killed from sleding accidents, hundreds are injured, some seriously, said T. T. Pinder, Council President. The collisions involving sleds and youngsters have involved trees, poles, fire hydrants, concrete walls, band stands, and! cars. The injuries range from scraped faces to broken bones. Sledding collisions can be avoided by taking the major pre- caution of selecting a safe sled-- 1 ding site. He described the site as broad gently sloping hills away from "he streets, all roadways, areas where toboggans or cars might be operating down to ski slopes. Too, the spot should be clear of bidden obstacles. One possible safe sledding area might be a designaetd area of i city or county park. The added factor of possible supervision would be present too. Sledders should avoid the long sweeping slopes along freeways. The most frequent and serious sledding accident involves cars. Most sled-caccidents occur on well traversed streets at the bottom of a hill. Unfortunately, it was pointed out, children fre- quently go sledding in the darkening hours after school when traffic is especially heavy and drivers have poor visibility. Frozen lakes and ponds must be off limits at all times. Another spot which is taboo for the sledders is areas where skiing or toboggan runs exist. Not only do they endanger their own lives but the lives of others. Three other important precautions for sledders are never hitch a ride onto the back of a car, position both arms and both legs on the sled for best handling and always be prepared for an emergency stop or roll off. ar Citizens Committee Scrutinizes State Educational Planning Making long range educational plans can be a risky business. Sometimes expected funds may not be available, or educational attitudes may undergo dramatic change, making goals obsolete even before they are reached. Called the State Advisory committee, and part of the Designing Education for the Future Project, the group was originally appointed in June of 1966 and is composed of 24 leading citizens from business, labor, industry, Whafs Inside aTraim, Daddy? . How would you answer? Name almost anything and youd be right, because most of the things you buy or use every day, at one stage or another, came on a train. Gasoline, lumber, candy bars, fruit, fancy frocks, furniture, TV sets, you name it. But almost as important to you as whats inside a train are the many other benefits of rail transportation. For example, trains mean jobs for thousands of people-ma- ny your friends and neighbors highly skilled people who make their living by keeping the things you need coming to you on Union Pacific trains. Trains enrich the economy by providing the transportation link in the marketing chain. The goods you require are less costly because rail transportation moves goods for less. And trains are dependable. You can get the things you need when you need them, where you need them. Indeed, there's more to trains than boxcars and diesel engines. There are very few people whose lives aren't touched every day, in some way, by a train. And here in the West, train means Union Pacific. UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD A Utah Corporation education and the professions. Then early in 1967, the committee appointed nine study committees to collect information to make long range proposals. The study groups covered such areas as educational needs of children, curriculum, continuing education for adults and financing. The meeting this week was held to review those original educational objectives set by the committee to see if they are be- ing met. The committee reports that many programs initiated to meet educational objectives have al- ready been carried out and that others are near completion or arc well along the way. For instance, one of the origiadopted by the to was increase intercommittee state reciprocity in teacher certification, that is, to pass legislation to allow teachers certify- nal proposals ing in one state to teach in an- other. During the last two years, 25 states have signed interstate agreements which recognize the teacher certification requirement in other states. The Utah State Legislature passed enabling legislation for the agreements during their 1971 session SHINES UP BRIGHT IN MINUTES LASTS UP TO A WEEK GRIFFIN WAX SHOE POUSH |
