Friday, Juns 19, 1942 Mklt? i 1Mb NEW USE FOR COTTON A Texan has received a first patent upon a "new und UHeful Improvement Jn armored Hhlp conatructlon" which utllizoH cotton to Increase the resist-1 ance of u ship's steel armqr. His plun provides for umklnK ships torpedo und sholl proof by constructing the entire hull of each vessel with two separate walla of ateel. aeparnted * by about twenty-alx inches of apuce. Thfs-epaeo .mnild bo tilled with specially shaped bulea of chemicallytreated cotton to make It fireproof, overlapped to prevent slipping and secured with heavy rods. The theory la that the wall of cotton would atop any torpedo or other projectile, Immediately fill uny ruch break to prevent entrance of water und protect the Inner wall of the ship's hull." Andrew Jackson demonstrated at the battlo of New Orleans thut cotton hales have great powera of reslatauco to gunfire, und It may be that this product of Southern fields can be utilized In ships as suggested. The plan is now under study by the National Inventors Council, a government council which evaluates the suggestions and Inventions received and acts In an advisory capacity to tho War and Navy departments In resepct to them. If it Is found to bo feasible for armored ships, it might also he adapted to merchant ships which ulso need protection, as la being demonstrated by Axis u-boats overy day. If anything cornea of tho plan the safety of shipping and tho economic J security of Southern farmers alike may be greatly enhanced.?Greenville News. EAT FRESH PRODUCTS SAVE CANNED SUPPLY One way of being patriotic tblt summer. says Margaret B. Fewelt. la to use as many fresh frulta and vegetable mm poMMlble during the growing) season. Fating fresh producer, whether home-grown or purchased, saves more home-canuod, dried, und frozen foods for winter use. It ulso eases the load carried by commercial cannera, who are uskod to Increase the quantity of food canned, to meet the need* of ottr military forces, clrlllnn?, und Allies. Folks get Into the lAtblt of runulng to the Htore for a lust minute canned vegetable or a canned fruit dessert, or they go down to the cellar and tap the supply of home-canned foods to suve time. A little sugar will go a lot farther la canning fruit than In making jama and sweet preserves, says Miss Fewell. In canning a pint Jar of fruit, such as apricots, upplus, peaches, sweet cherries, pears and plums, about 1 cupful of light syrup Is used to All up the Jur. It lakes 1-4 cup of sugar and one cup of water to make this cupful of light syrup. Thirty per cent I by weight of the sugar required to can peaches und pears could be replaced by corn syrup or corn sugar. Quick sweet pickles are acceptable when made with a thirty per cent substitution by measure of corn syrup or corn sugur. When making Jelly, jam, murmalade, preserves, and conserves, more sugar is needed to obtain the right consistency. As an example, a pound of strawberries takes about 1 pound of sugar for strawberry Jam. On this basis the sugar used in making one pouud of fruit into preserves would bo enough for light syrup for 4 or 6 pounds of canned fruit. As a matter of fact, Miss Fowell points out, fruits may be canned without sugar, and are frequently canned sugarless for people ou sugarfree diets. However, the shape, color, and flavor of the fruits are retained better when sugar, in the form of syrup, Is added at the time of canning. Canned fruit is an important part of a well-rounded winter bill of fare, but Jelly, Juin, marmaladg, and proserves are chiefly relishes.

Youngest Senator Joins Air Force Greenwood, June 16.?W. J. Bryan Dorn, 25, youngest member of the stute senate, said yesterday he had been accepted as a private in the Army Air Force, and would report to Fort Jackson Friday. He said he would not resign his senate seat, as that body had granted him a leave of absence in February when he announced his intention to enter the army. His term expires in January, 1945. Before being seated in the senate? at the age of 24?at the opening of the 1941 meeting of the general^assembly, Dorn had served one Term in the house of representatives.

I I Kiwauis held its regular meeting Tuesday at 1 p. m. at Camden hotel. In 4 the absence of president Oliver) | Appleton Rice, the officiating chair was occupied by Joe McKain. | Cyril Busbee, president, until he found it necessary to resign recently, was present aa special guest. He had been Invited to attend in order to give ! the club occasion to express gratitude for the service he had rendered during his membership. He was presented with a past president' button as a token of appreciation?Team Oettys making the presentation. The house committee, Nim Zemp, chairman, was in charge of the program and had John Villeplgue for our visiting speaker. As chairman of the local rationing board, he brought local Kiwanlans considerable Information of interest and value regarding the function of the board. He said only a small number of those ipeople eligible for tires can get them due to the limited allotment each month. Furthermore, If those eligible have tires that can be safely recapped, they cannot get new tires. He said the board tries to allow tires Jfor most essential purposes as far as the allotment permits. In referring to rationing of new automobiles the chairman pointed out that early restrictions made it almost impossible to find an eligible purchaser. However, a recent relaxation by the government on selling restrictions has enabled them to Issue as many certificates as the number of new cars allotted and still have some people waiting who are qualified to buy. After hearing Mr. Villeplgue, club members realired more fully the .stupendous problem the board members have In their rationing job. We can appreciate in some measure the service they are rendering the community during this war. This should stimulate many of us to awaken to opportunities we have to Join in the war effort and carry our share of the load and buy defense bonds. MT.
