The octane ratings of gasoline, or whether or not it is "high test," do not have any important bearing on fire and explosion hazards. In some cases high-octane gasoline may actually be less volatile than ordinary gasoline, but there is not sufficient distinction in hazards to call for differ* ent precautions. Motor gasoline usually has lead compounds added to improve the octane rating or antiknock qualities. These lead compounds have no effect upon the fire and explosion hazard but are poisonous, making it dangerous to use. gasoline in any way in which persons may be directly exposed to the liquid. ^ "* """ OCTO,,u tne ians coming. 9 ,<Ur „ J J ., I Ric a i o Warnors jer\ded the season Decoration Day.

It is the only form of arthritis in which uric acid ia of genuine importance, though old-time almanacs and certain forms of patent medicine advertising, still in existence, worry the patient with stories about accumulation of uric acid in the body with consequent "rheumatism." Like other forms of arthritis, gout affects the whole body, not merely the joints. A true attack offers little difficulty in recognition, with its fierce pain, red and tender joints, and subsequent disappearance without apparent injury to the part. Repeated attacks, however, do cause injury. Contrary to common belief, gout may affect other joints than the great toe and frequently does. Verber ss Grabbert c Unti lb ..., D. Wuttke Payne rf ..

They look to have too many good ballplayers to be headed off by any team now in sight. Almost every other spectator wanted me to pick the winner of the Louis-Conn meeting. The only answer is that thus far neither has come into his real training period-- at least, far enough along to give any true line. The only good line one can get must come in the last two weeks, when the tip-off should be due. D R Y S. Green Phone McHenry 20 • Let us settle all of yonr cleaning problems.

Freigftt Lose Freight loss and damage payments made by the railroads of the United States and Canada in 1944 totaled $59,756,336, an increase of 42.1 per cent over the preceding year. Claim payments by American railroads last year'amounted to 0.82 per cent of the gross freight revenue as compared with 0.59 per cent in 1943. Those of Canadian roads were 0.36 per cent of the revenue, the same ratio as in 1943. For many years, the railroads have pressed against freight loss and damage. As a result of better methods of packing, loading and handling of shipments, freight claims paid in 1944 were only about half what they were in 1920, although the railroads performed nearly double the freight service that they did 25 years ago. Formosa Fruitful --Formosa's fruitful soils produced one-sixth of Japan's rice supply, enaugh to feed all Japanese armies in the field. Government-encouraged cultivation of sugar cane on the island made Japan self-sufficient in sugar and fourth among its world producers. Formosa has long been a leading grower of famed aromatic Oolong tea, 90 per cent of which was shipped to Uncle Sam. Sweet potatoes and other vegetables are grown for home consumption.

Science explains that vitamin C tends to be destroyed by heat and by exposure to air. In other words, the food value of cranberries varies according to the way you prepare them. Most of the vitamin C is available when you use the berries raw--as in a freshly made relish or molded salad. Some vitamin C is lost when you make cranberries into sauce. Even more ia destroyed when you strain the sauce, or make the Juice into jelly.

Two of these were Wallie Butts of Georgia and Paul Bryant of Kentucky. They were talking about the job selectors are going to have in naming the four best backs of the coming season. "For example," Wallie Butts said, "who can name a better allaround back than Charley Trippi of Georgia, who, as a passer, runner, taekler or blocker, has everything a star back needs. And he is exceptionally good at them all." Paul Bryant, who had a fine record at Maryland last fall, began to figure out the leading backs. "Trippi is certainly one of the best," he said. "But, in addition, there still are Blanchard and Davis from West Point to be remembered. There will be Bud Young at Illinois, Bob Fenimore at Oklahoma A. and M.; and there also will be Harry Gilmer at Alabama. .And doq't think these will complete the list. There will be others who can't be overlooked. There should be at least 10 or 12 great backs and I don't mean merely pretty good. For example, there is also Wedemeyer from St. Mary's, who will have more support than he could call an last fall." • •.'
