Treatment, Itvepinf quality of dry tnflk If greatly Improved by means of • tmlment described by two gov- «mmenl chemists at the 116th ria-, ttpftftl meeting of the American, Ctomlca! tociety. at Atlantic City. The treatment, which delays the development of an unpleasant flavor, eoMiiti of dea©rating the raw milk, that Is. removing its oxygeri, la • vacuum pan and then heating H to a temperature above 70 degl* ea centigrade before preparing the dried product, according to Dr. Philip A. Wright and Dr. Goorge R. Greenbank of the deportment of agriculture's bureau «t dairy industry,v Washington, D.C. In the past, a so-called "tallowy" flavor which appeared in dried milk held in storage was one of the product's principal defects, the federal chemists pointed out. The off flavor, traced to the effects of oxygen, can be tasted the moment .dried milk is restored to the liquid state, and in fact an. accompanying odor beco'ma* abvious as soon as the container is> opened: the paper said. - This tallowy, or oxidized, .flavor con ordinarily be avoided only by .'-'•irly consumption' of dried milk, it was said, although its development can be retarded by such procedures as storing at low temperature; packing in an atmosphere of inert nitrogen or some similar gas after removing the air from the headspace of the can;, high-temperature preheating of the raw fluid milk, and various other handling and manufacturing methods starting immediately after the JMttf Is obtained from the cow. /K™i Etrly Htvsc Abtat Size Of Dttr, Scientist Says The modern horse owes his lonft teeth and much of his appearance to the food his ancestors were forced to eat during the last S5 million years. This is a conciusion of a study rfiade by R. A. Stirton, asFoeiate professor of paleontology at the University of California.; Dr. Stirton says that 35 qiiltin years ago the horse was aboiit Ut size of a deer, and. iike the dc« r. had well-developed side toes on h:. fe^t. His teeth were small and lowcrowned. He had all the potential for evolving into the modern horse; indeed, Except for tiiose ehiiracijtistics. he looked much like the horse as he is known today..

Conversion of Guam, southernmost of the Marianas group, from a sleepy tropical island into a key military and naval base was the first big postwar development undertaken. Although actually begun in the closing year of -the drive on Japan, the program picked up momentum with the coming peace, which permitted development of a more substantial character. Today Guam has two permanent air fields, both buflt on the level land of its northern plateau.

Btlstaken 'End'-entlty ....... A GOOD MANY years ago. when teachers and not parents did most of the whipping of children, one teacher found herself unable to cope with a husky youngster. She spoke to the principal about it and he told her to send the boy to him the next time he had to be punished. A day or so later the lad entered Hie principal's office. "Miss Weeks sent me down for a «pa--'" he began. "Yes. I know," snapped the principal. and with a hand that moved much faster than the eye could follow, had the boy over his knee and whaling the daylights out of Miii. "Now what have you got to say?" demanded the principal as he Waited tor the boy's sobs to subside. "All I was going to say," sobbed . the lad, "was that Miss Weeks sent feBe down for a Spanish book she kft in your office."

Along with this change came domination^ of the plain by course, dry grasses; As the horse munched on this grass, he found he had to chew the sand of the Hood plain along with the tougher grass. This was a diet, well calculated v to bring about profound modifications of the horse's teeth. In addition to increasing the size and height of the crown of the teeth, the horse s jaw became more massive, giving him his present head shape.'

Basic Product Select a product--any product-- and if it is made in America, bituminous coal has touched it first. Think back to where your product --any product--came from. How were its raw materials drawn from the earth, the sea, the sky? Where did the machinery come from for making it? Were lighting, power, heat, energy required in its manufacture? Did electricity enter in? Steel? Transportation? At every turn you will find coal, derivatives of coal, or functions made possible -by coal. students of vital statistics may consider the drop from 2.6 to 2,3 for Alabama and South Carolina an accomplishment as great as or great* er, from the social point of view, than the reduction for Oregon from "0.9 in 1947 to 0.4 in 1948. "For thirty-seven states and the District of Columbia, the 1948 rates Were at least as low as those repotted in 1947; the decrease ranged from 0.1 to 0.8.
