Show Old West Recipes Wanted For New USU Cookbook Do you have a favorite recipe that might fit into the category of "old west heritage"? Utah State University is looking for this type of recipe for a special bulletin to create additional interest in the nation's bicentennial. "We especially want recipes that have been family treasures with uniqueness relative to family history or nostalgia, and recipes from different cultures brought west by immigrants," commented Flora Bardwell, family life supervisor at USU. All recipes should be given to local USU Extension agents for possible inclusion in the recipe booklet, scheduled to be off the press in July and ready for distribution at the annual Festival of the American West held on campus. It is hoped that every county in the state will have recipes included. Persons submitting recipes are asked to test them for accuracy. They will also be tested by various county per-. sons and again at USU. Final categories will probably include main dishes, breads, meats, desserts and miscallaneous. Recipes must be in Logan by April 1. Check with your local extension office for county deadlines. A cover contest, open to all . persons who are not professional artists, will also be held, with entries also being submitted through the local extension office. The recipe bulletin cover will be 6x9, wrap-around. First prize in the cover contest will be $30. second prize $15, and third prize $10. All entries must be on bristol board, and if black and white, must be in ink. The entries should not be less than 8' 11 or more than 13 x 20. "The design must relab to the title "Old West Henlage Recipes, " commented Chris Nielsen, associate editor of publications at USU. For any additional information on the recipe submission or the cover contest, contact the local Extension office. The newly organized Daughters of Utah Pioneers Camp Omni, (Richfield Eighth Ward ) , will meet Monday at the home of Mrs. Luella Nelson, at 4 p.m. Eva Burr will be co-hostess.
