August 12, Your SCRAP into the} ,Slaughtering Livestock For lHome Consumption l l l tions that apply to the farmer who ‘ dresses meat exclusively for farm Efamily home consumption. 1 1. You do not need a Slaughter ‘j permit if you dress your own meat or take your animals to a, slaught- ‘ering plant provided you do not sell any part of the meat. Why? ' i There is no need for a slaughter permit in these cases, since the farm home supply of meat need not limit the amount of meat that can be made available to the arm- ed forces and to civilians. 2. You are not required to sur- render ration stamps to the itin- ‘ erant butcher who slaughters for you, or to other slaughterers, or to the custom curer, or to other processors for return of your own meat-provided you do not sell any of the meat. Why? As long as you consume the meat in your own family, this is the same as No. 1 above. 3. If your family consumes home farm produced meat, you are expected to use “self rationing" (to restrict your family consump- tion of red stamp rationed food within the limits allotted to other civilians as a fair share of the limited meat supply). This means that the government expects you to leave in War Ration Book Two enough red stamps to equal the farm produced food that your family consumes. Why? Self-ra- itioning by farmers who produce their own meat was one of the basis on which the government figured the civilian share of the restricted meat supply. Self ra- tioning gives you the share you are entitled to and no more. The one principle that is fair to every— body is: take no more meat than your fair share. 4. The farmer who feeds his help in a bunk house, cook car, or dining room operated away from his home is no longer re- quired to register as an “institu- tion user,” like a hotel or restaur- iant. He may use rationed food produced on his farm without turning in ration stamps. Why?

Farm people should not turn over to store dealers or butchers extra stamps they do not need or recently expired stamps. Many farm families have a good many left ‘when the stamps go out of date in any one period. The gov- ernment asks everybody who has stamps left over to destroy the stamps as soon as they go out of date. “’hy? Recently expired stamps are still good in trade channels for 30 days after they go out of date for consumers. Dealers not abiding by the rules could misuse the stamps to build up stocks of food that they could sell without collecting ration points. This may be a black mar— ket source which the farmer will not wish to encourage. Farmers will help prevent black market operations by destroying stamps as soon as they become invalid. This is the only way that each person will get his fair share at a fair price. Harstine Island News Events By Mrs. Earl Harriman I Harstine Island, August 10—-— The stork flew low over Harstine in the wee small hours of Tues- day morning and left a baby daughter for Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Wingert at the Shelton Hospital. Congratulations. Allen McCay was taken to his brothers home in Olympia one day last week for medical treatment. Mr. and Mrs. Reinhart Goetsch home of Mr. and Mrs. Wanaford Page. . Mr. and Mrs. Glen Harris of Belfair spent a few days of his vacation at his old stamping grounds here on the island.

Waite made a business trip to Seattle Sunday 'and brought Mrs. Waite’s broth- ers two boys home with them for a few days. Program Shows Wheat Increase The 1944 production program calling for planting a record total of about 380 million acres in crops and for maintaining the production of meat, dairy pro. ducts and eggs at record high levels was recently announced by the War Food Administration to the agricultural Extension Serv- ice. A specific goal for planting 68 million acres of wheat, 26 per cent above the indicated seeding for harvest this year was also made known at that time. However, here in the Pacific Northwest dry peas, dry beans, FILMS LIMIT ONE ROLL JUST ARRIVED Haeger Pottery and Mr. Fred S. Wright of Ta-2 coma were recent callers at the: ' lan acre, SHELTOl‘l-MATSON l § Some Simple Science . . . 7 A tree, like every other living thing, is built of cells. With his mi- croscope the scientist has seen that the cells of wood are long, thin, pliable tubes. Since these cells are in the form of tubes, water—in which plant food from the air and soil has been dissolved—passes through the tubes and feeds the tree. The tubes, which are as fine as or finer than a human hair, also give strength to the tree. If you will takeasheet of paper and roll it into a tube you will see, when you try to bend it, how strong the paper tube is, in spite of the fact that it contains no more material than the sheet of paper. The substance of which the tubes are made is called cellulose. About two-thirds of all wood is cellulose. The other third is a substance call- ed lignin. Lignin is a binder, a ma- terial which holds the cellulose cells together. Cellulose is found in its purest form in cotton. The cotton boll is almost all cellulose. If you have ever seen a cotton boll you know that it is made up of many thin fibers. These are somewhat» like the cellulose fibers in a tree, except that in the cotton the fibers are not bound together by lignin. Al- though the cotton boll is nearly all cellulose, in certain regions, one acre of land planted in trees will produce five times as much cellu- lose each year as an acre planted in cotton. Wood Cellulose . . . When treated with different i chemicals wood cellulose is changed into many products, such as gun- 'powder, paper, photographic film, alcohol, rayon, cellophane, imitation leather, lacquers, glycerine, plas- tics, felt, sugar, molasses, yeast, and food proteins. Wood cellulose in pulp form has i many other uses. Put into solution and pressed through tiny holes un- der'high pressure, it is spun into fine rayon threads which find many u 5 es in th e manufacturing an d clothing industries. An important use of wood cellulose in war days is in explosives which fire big guns; in cord for heavy-duty truck and airplane tires; in linings for self- sealing gasoline tanks; in lines for parachutes; and in light -weight rayon clothing for paratroopers. It is natural to wonder how man ever came to think of making paper from wood. The anSWer is that the wasp showed him how to do it. The wasp, nature’s paper manufacturer, uses this product for his nest. The wasp makes paper from wood by chewing it to a fine pulp which is then spread out in thin, closely matted sheets and allowed to dry. Lignin and Plastics . . . Although scientists have learned much about cellulose from their work with paper and other cellu- lose products, lignin is still some- thing of a mystery. But scientists do know that lignin is a tough, dur- able substance which holds the tree together. Not needed for paper-making, there have been few uses for lignin. All that the paper manufacturer wanted from wood was the cellu- lose. Now lignin is being saved for use in tanning leather, as a binder in mixing concrete, as a water soft- " ener, and for an increasing variety of new uses. Vanillin, which is used in the flavoring of ice cream, can be made from lignin. Lignin is also used as a base for fertilizer. Soon after the second World War began, lignin became useful in the manufacture of plastics which are being used for bomb fuses and shell cases, and in instrument panels for airplanes, ships, and tanks. It is also used in the cases of storage bat- teries. When most of the important met- als were taken from civilian use and put to work to win the war, plastics came into wide use. Your fountain pen is probably made of plastic. So is the instrument panel in your car. We pow have plastic jewelry and plastic dishes. Your telephone, your radio cabinet, most of your electri- cal equipment, and many of the handles on your mother’s kitchen utensils are probably made of plas— tic. Wood may be an important part of your family automobile. The body, including the windows, may be all plastic. The tires may be made of Buna rubber, which can be made from alcohol distilled from wood. Eyen the fuel burned in your car may be woodgas rather than gasoline, or alcohol ma do from wood. Verily, the promise of- our forests is limitless. canning crops and potatoes will have priority over wheat. Contin- ued high acreages will be needed for flax seed, Irish and sweet po- tatoes and certain ,other vege- tables, the announcement said. Some feed crops, especially corn and alfalfa hay should also be substantially increased. In addition, the WFA said that more machinery and larger sup- plies of fertilizer will be avail— able for farming during the 1944 crop year.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE “Soul” is the subject of the Les- son-Sermon which will be read in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, Sunday, August 15. Golden Text: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul.” The following verse from Mat- thew is included in the Lesson- Sermon: “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.” This correlative statement is from “Science and Health With‘ 1 Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: “The Science of be- ing reveals man as perfect, even as the Father is perfect, because the Soul, or Mind, of the spiritual man is God, the divine Principle of all being, and because this real man is governed by Soul instead of sense, by the law of Spirit, not by the so-called laws of matter.” TAXI SERVICE Phone 392-J Army Engineers Seek Recruits Washington construction men l facing induction or wishing to vol- unteer.for military duty may en- list for Army service with a new] quota now being assigned to Av- iation Engineer battalions, includ- i ing one unit now in training at Geiger Field, near Spokane, it was announced yesterday by Lt., James Corke, Assistant Personnel Officer for the Seattle Engineer District.
