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?

5. 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left ‘when the stamps go out of
date in any one period.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stamps as soon as they go out
of date.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go out of date for consumers.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.

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,

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.”
