In sparkle and color, glass is similar enough to diamonds to be much used in imitation of them. And if clear white sand were as scarce as diamonds, gl=ss crnaments might very well be as precious as the jew- els. At one time glass was very valu- able, indeed, and a man’s wealth was measured by the number of glass windows he had in his dwell- ing. And though diamonds are much harder and much more valu- able, glass has become one of the most useful of modern products. Without it, many industries could not exist, and our daily lives would be entirely changed. For many things, from window panes to bottles and from eyeglasses to the finest microscope and camera lenses, glass is indispensable. With- out window panes we would live in darkened rooms as our ancestors did. Without bottles and jars, medi- cines and , serves would be scarcer. Without lenses, many of us would have to forego even the joy of good eyesight. And as for the distant stars and microscopic ani- mals and plants, they would still be quite ufiRnown to us as they were to ancient people. Window glass is a simple kind of glass. Its three ingredients, white quartz sand, lime and soda, are mixed together in huge earthen pots and melted by a very hot flame. When finally the whole mass has melted together, the opaque sub- stances which were placed in the pot change into clear transparent glass, through which light may eas- ily pass. Corpuscles, Not Plasma, Determine Type of Blood Blood plasma is simply blood with the corpuscles removed. The pres- ent technique, which reduces it to powder form for convenience and preservation, is less than a year old. A unit contains enough plas- ma for a transfusion, with the re- quired accessories—including dis- tilled water (with which the plasma is mixed), rubber tubing and needles. The Red Cross takes blood from volunteer donors and has han- dled 11,000 in the New York district alone. Blood taken from donors is refrig- erated and sent to a laboratory, where it is tested for contamination or disease. Then the corpuscles are removed by centrifugal action. That leaves a clear, straw-colored liquid which “matches” all types of blood —because the corpuscles, not the plasma, determine the type. The human body can make up a cor- puscle-deficiency far more quickly than it can supply plasma. The liquid plasma is quick-frozen and dehydrated in a vacuum. The re- #ulting powder is ready for use at any time by mixing with sterile wa- ter and it will keep for at least five years. Sealed in flasks, it readily may be packed without wasting space and shipped anywhere. Faith and Pilgrims In scanning the pages of Ameri- can history there stand out individ- ulals and groups as having exempli- fied a full faith in the protection and guidance of divine Providence. This, coupled with unconquerable courage and unswerving fortitude, made pos- sible the establishing of the early settlements of the country. None will deny that prominent among these groups were the Pilgrims, who came to the New world to escape condi- tions which constricted their chosen way of worship and to establish a community wherein worship could be carried on in accordance with the dictates of conscience, without persecution and without domination. In the experience of these hardy pioneers there inhered a fullness of faith, a spiritual quality which has too often been lost sight of in the more than three centuries which have passed since their advent upon New England's forbidding shores. It was: this quality of intrepid faith in Providence to guide and protect the faithful, to shield and care for those obedient to the divine Will, which in- spired the great adventure. Potatoes on Vines Potatoes now grow above the ground on vines in Roswell, N. M. L. B. Boellner, jeweler and amateur horticulturist, reported a new vege- table by crossing potatoes with to- matoes. The hybrid plant, he said, produces potatoes on a vine above the ground. “I don’t have to dig for 'em like other people do,’’ he said. “But there's one catch. So far my biggest potato-tomato is the size of a marble. But next year, in the second generation, they'll be big- ger.” Boellner said the tiny pota- toes grow in clusters on the green tomato-like vine, “I'll add a water- melon for size if they don't get bigger next year,” he said. Dolly Madison, Hostess Dolly Madison acted in this ca- pacity. As a young widow Dolly Payne Todd married Congressman James Madison who became secre- tary of state in 1801. This made his wife an important social figure and since President Thomas Jefferson was a widower he frequently asked Mrs. Madison to preside as hostess at the White House during his two terms. In 1809 her husband be- came President and served two terms. BE... Patrouize Bulletin Advertisers. Farm Torics PARTIALLY RIPE TOMATOES SAVED Timely Picking and Care Preserves Tomato Crop. By LEE A. SOMERS (Extension Vegetable Specialist, University of Illinois, College Of Agriculture.) Thousands of bushels of tomatoes which go to waste each autumn be- cause the earlier frosts come be- fore the later set of fruits has had time to ripen fully could be saved if picked and cared for properly. These early frosts catch tomatoes in all stages of growth and ripen- ing. Some are nearly ripe, and some are half-red, pink-blue, white- nosed, while some are still grass- green. When the first frosts are coming, growers should pick the tomatoes and store them in a basement or some other place safe from frost where they can be spread out to mature, The grass-green tomatoes will never ripen and should be used in making chow-chows and piccalillies of various kinds and pickled toma- toes in various forms. If not used in a few days, they will shrivel and become worthless. The nearly ripe, half-red, pink- blue and white-nosed tomatoes will complete the ripening processes in the order named, and in so doing will lengthen the tomato season about three weeks. The nearly ripe specimens will ripen fully with nor- mal color, flavor and texture over a period ranging from a few days to a week or more. The half-red tomatoes will ripen to a nearly normal red color, a fair flavor and only slightly rubbery texture in 10 days or two weeks. The pink-blue and white-nosed specimens will ripen yellow-red, and with poorer flavor and a rubber texture, char- acteristics of artificially ripened to- matoes. Some of them will need to be discarded because they are shriveled. If frost has already killed the tén- der vines and leaves, it is still pos- sible to salvage that part of the crop which has had some protection from the vines and leaves. Electricity Boosting Farmers’ Efficiency Electricity, a powerful and relatively new tool on the farm, is speeding the efficiency of farm- ers in the current drive to sirengthen national defense. Many farmers have been using this servant in their work for the past five or six years. They are now broadening its use. Others who have used it in only a small way for household pur- poses are applying ‘it to farm jobs and finding. it the easiest, quickest, and cheapest way of doing their larger chores. In dairying, it milks the cows, cools the milk, pumps the water, grinds the feed, heats the water, and -sterilizes the utensils. On the poultry farm, it broods chicks. the drinking fountain, lights the laying house, grinds the feed and pumps the water. For the truck grower, it heats the plant bed, pumps. water for ‘irrigation, operates’ a' spray pump, provides refrigeration and ice at marketing time, operates a grader, a washer, a sacker, and a loading meachine, and in the case of sweet potatoes, sugplies heat for curing and storing. Cross-Cut Wood Saw And Motor for $25 “It saws while you split” is sug- gested as the idea behind the cross- cut wood saw driven hy a quarter- horsepower electric motor designed by H. L. Garver and Paul G. May, U. S. department of agriculture en- gineers engaged in rural electrifica- tion research. Material for the out- fit costs about $25 they estimate, in- cluding the motor. The bureau of agricultural chemistry and engi- neering has mimeographed the plan for distribution to those interested. Wood is still the mainstay for fuel on many, N not most, farms. The cross-cut saw operated by two men is still in common use. The circular saw either requires a considerable investment for an engine or large motor or a charge for custom saw- ing. A man exerts about one-tenth horsepower on such work and the engineers reasoned that a quarter horsepower motor might be substi- tuted to operate the saw. It has automatic shut-off devices. Dust Livestock Lice on livestock in the winter can best be controlled with a dust- ing powder of some kind. One effective mixture is one part of pyrethrum to three parts of cheap flour. Another combination is one part of derris powder to three to five parts of talc or flour. These mixtures have proved effec- tive against sheep lice and ticks. Use a small hand duster to give quick and thorough coverage of the infested animals. Religious News In This Community RE THE ENTIRE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. First Presbyterian Church Rev. C. B.
