TOWN OF MAGRATH Scaffolds: At sane point during the con­struction of our arena, 8 sections of scaffolding wore removed from the site. ’ We would appreciate it very much if everyone would check their back yards, quonsets and garages to see if these scaffolds were borrowed and then forgotten about. These were rented equipment and the arena has had to pay for their replacement. If anyone has any information in this regard please contact the Town Office at 758-3212. Dist Control : We will again be placing crude oil mixture on streets in Town in an effort to control the dust. For this control to be effective, the oil must be of a fairly thick consistency, therefore it will be messy at first.

If your home is like mine, this means large amounts of leftovers. Alberta Agriculture has a wonderful publication called "Using Leftovers". I am going to share a few of the items from the publication with you. Cooked meat and poultry can easily be cut into strips for a chef's salad. Cubes of these meats can be used to make kabobs. If you add tomatoes, cheese and pickles, this leftover meat can look extremely app­etizing. Hard boiled eggs are one item which frequently remains after Easter. If the dye from the decoration on the out­side has not gone through the shell, the egg can be sliced or grated for garnish. Casseroles are a good way to use hard boiled eggs which have dye showing on them. (Warning: be careful that the dye is eatable). Eggs, can be leftover un­cooked as well, especially if you blow eggs before decorating them. One of the best ways to keep these eggs is freezing fhem. This is done by adding 2 ml of salt to every 250 ml of egg. When this egg mixture is unthawed, it can be used in casseroles. Eggs you want to use for baking, you must add 7 ml of sugar to every 250 ml of egg. No egg wastage will Occur where you freeze them. Drop into Alberta Agriculture Office and ask for this publication to help you make it through the leftover blues. BE WISE - Give yourself 3^ days to a new you...ask me. . Leona Quantz, D.H.E.
