Tung oil, or China wood oil, unsurpassed as a fast-drying and water-prooflng ingredient for paints, streams in record volume from pressing mills near tung groves fat the gulf coast states, notes the National Geographic society. The oil is squeezed from kernels of the tung nut, originally the fruit of China's national tree, native of the Yangtze river basin. Of the 52 principal American crops listed in the department of agriculture's 1946 annual summary, the tung nut shows the fastest current expansion The domestic harvest, less than one ton in 1924, climbed to 6.200 tons in 1943 and 47,300 tons in 1946. From the 1946 crop of nuts, about 7,000 tons of oil could be. extracted. That is about one-tenth of imports from China hi some brewar years, and an estimated one-thirtieth of the amount the American paint Industry could readily use in 1947. Before World War II, the brilliant ty blossoming wild tung trees of the well-drained Yangtze basin slopes between Hankow and Ichang were the source of is much as 190.000 tons of tung oil a year. Although half or more of the output was shipped to the United States, the supply was les* than the demand. SCHOOL HALL, McHENRY NOVEMBER 23 8>. M. TURKEYS DUCKS CHICKENS (All Dressed).

Still another exceptional find is a heroic statue of a jaguar carved in limestone, a figurcgabout 11 feet long, two feet, wide and a foot high. The importance of the newly dis- :overed murals is underscored by tiie scarcity and inadequacy of Mayan paintings previously discovered. The.greatest part of what archeologists have thus far been able to learn about the Mayas has derived from the study and interpretation of glyphs, architectural forms, pottery and «fona carvings, the latter both two and three dimensional. Until the recent Healey find, only three specimens of Mayan paintings had been uncovered. Saered Tree ef lapu The gingko tree comes from Japan and China. It is the sacred tree of Japan. In a pyramidal form, it grows to the height of 50 feet. Its deciduous leaves are very different from the leaves of most American trees. In form, they resemble fans with unbranching, fern-like veins. This tree bears a plum-like fruit with a most unpleasant odor. In' America it grows best in the region of Washington, D. C. The Chinese sometimes plant several male and female trees close together, so that male and female flowers appear to %ritt on the same tree. > 5- J Try that mmt If* Mhr 12 MMhtS MMfl|m fotfoat M-TMa ffct.^ a Itofc aAt ,t4ha^t cab, all raam, and «i«M Inchaa ^ *rJ~t mm (Nttis «aoa, tea.- "***»' "Viiii mtfrt a* i Ink at ari rvw ffMHk Ifa REALLY M*r This baaM any truck |*v« avar !
