Kerry Nelson, program director, said all but four of the teachers are bilingual, with the 16 speaking mainly English and Spanish. ARRIVING WEEK OF JUNE 15 YOUR INSPECTION INVITED Phone Filer couple makes stone household mills if BRENT LIERMAN Elected FILER The Junior Riding Club has elected Marvin Gartner as president of the group, it was announced today. Other officers are Sherie Aslett, vice president; Camille Blastock, secretary-treasurer, and Kathy Smith, reporter. The group is seeking new members and those interested may contact Mrs.

Robert Blastock, leader, or attend drills held at 7:30 p.m. each Monday at the fairgrounds. Annually Q1 which will have various rooms for wood working, assembling, packing and office space. The upstairs is being remodeled for their living quarters. The name "Magic Mill" was given to the business, because, as the family explains, it was a "magic" situation, and then, too the factory is located in Magic Valley.

At the present, Magic Mills have been sent to all of the 50 United States, as well as to Canada, Africa, Australia and the Philippines, and inquiries have been received from Hong Kong, New Zealand, Sweden, Ghana, Germany and England. The company employes three fulltime workers besides the owner and his wife. They are Greg Yehle, Bill Chess, and Bob Kuest, son of the owner. Mrs. Kuest handles the bookkeeping and correspondence.

The company has started advertising in four health magazines as well as an LDS publication, and receives as many as 50 inquiries by mail per day, as well as many telephone calls from the United States and Canada. Its United States and international patents are honored by 78 countries. I Mrs. Kuest was born and raised in Montana, and Kuest was bom and raised in Kulm, N.D. Both came to Idaho in 1936 and were married in Filer two years later.

They have lived in Magic Valley since that time. Kuest was formerly employed in the contracting business in Twin Falls and Filer, and also farmed in the Jerome and Wendell areas. The Kuests also own Magic Hot Springs which two of their daughters operate. One daughter is a masseuse and gives treatments at the springs. Designed with the housewife in mind, it has only one moving part.

It comes hand-crafted in birch, walnut or maple finish. Wheat, rye, oats, millet, barley, soy beans and corn can all be ground into cereals or flour. Rice also can be ground into flour, and Mrs. Kuest states rice flour is far superior to cake flour for light, moist cakes. Grains to be ground in the mills can be obtained from various Health Food stores as well as feed and seed companies.

The LDS Relief stores also handle the grains and it is expected that super markets will have them on their shelves in the near future. Brigham Young is quoted as saying, "The time will come when gold will hold no comparison in value to a bushel of wheat." The Magic Mill is an invention born from a dream of eight years, the Kuests say. A number of years ago they had a mill and ground all their own flour as Mrs. Kuest baked all the bread and pastries for five other families besides her own. However, they were dissatisfied with the working of the mill they had so Kuest designed and built one of his own.

The finished mill was patented and the first one sold in 1961, however, the stones for grinding were unavailable at that time and several years delay followed before production could begin. Last fall the family started making the mills for full production and about 2500 of them have already been produced and sold. Kuest rented space on Main Street from Seth Blake for over a year, then purchased the former Howard Cleaners building. He is now partitioning and remodeling the building i IT COULD II BE THE I jsft l4 START OF OMETHIWG II By MARJORIE HERMAN Times-News Writer FILER Interest in organic gardening and natural foods is increasing daily' as more and more people are beginning to grow their own food or to buy those they know contain no preservatives and have not come in contact with any chamicals. Also becoming popular is the grinding of one's own flour and cereals from various grains, and following this trend, the Magic Mill Company, owned by Mr.

and Mrs. Johnny Kuest, is now in full production of the household mills which are being sold on a large scale to people in the United States as well as many foreign countries. The stone mill will grind all grains to fine flours, or just crack them for cereals, keeping all the vitamins, minerals and natural flavor of the whole grain berry as nature made it. Nothing is removed or taken out by the grinding and nothing is added. The fresh flour, exposed to air, loses nutritional value very quickly so the owners of the mill suggest only enough flour or cereal be ground at one time as will be used.

The Magic Mill is powered by a heavy-duty industrial motor with a simple off and on switch. The two patented inter-design stones are specially designed and custom manufactured for life-time use and will never need picking, dressing or sharpening, Kuest said. The stone mill is electrically powered but can be converted to hand operation in just minutes if necessary. Two hand cranks, one a four to one ration gear drive, and the other, a direct drive, are available. The grains and cereals are caught by a stainless steel drawer which is easily cleaned with a damp cloth.

It will grind five pounds of flour in three and a half minutes, and is light in weight and easy to adjust. Two bond votes now invalid BOISE (UPI) Attorney Gen. eral W. Anthony Park says a U.S. Supreme Court decision has invalidated at least two Idaho bond issues.

In a 7-2 decision earlier this week, the high tribunal held there was no constitutional bar to that state requiring a 60 per cent majority approval for adoption of bond issues or tax increases. Idaho'sconstitutionrequiresa two-thirds majority for approval of such issues. Park said that under the high court's ruling any bond issue of a governmental subdivision in Idaho which was passed with more than a 50 per cent majority but less than a two thirds majority is invalid. These include, he said, a sewer bond issue at Paris in Bear Lake County and a bond election by the South Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River Sewer SAVINGS CERTIFICATES SAVINGS CERTIFICATES 4-Year Maturity $100,000 Minimum Current Annual Rates, Paid Annually 5-Year Maturity $100,000 Minimum Current Annual Rates, Paid These two, new high earning Savings Certificates are designed for individuals and organizations with large funds which can be left on deposit for four to five years.
