Keep Yord Plant
Free Of Suckers
Suckers that sprout from
the roots of trees and shrubs
will weaken the parent plant
if they aren't removed.
North Carolina State
University agricultural extension
specialists suggest
that suckers often sprout
from the parent stock on
which trees and shrubs are
grafted or budded.
The suckers are particularly
noticeable at the base
of fruit trees, roses, rhododendrons
and lilacs.
To get rid of these
nutrient-robbing suckers,
the NCSU specialists suggest
tracing the sucker back
to its point of origin and
jerking it out of the ground.
This most likely will mean
that you will have to dig
down into the ground
several inches to get all of
the sucker.
Merely cutting off the
sucker won't do much good.
It will come right back.
New 'Ice Bin House' Fuels All-Year Comfort
Now they've invented a
house that "saves" cold
February days to cool off
stifling summers, and hot
August days to take the chill
off winter.
And, at no extra charge,
the homeowner saves up to
70 percent on his year-round
heating and cooling costs.
The house—or the novel
method of heating and
cooling it— is among the
most promising in the
increasing efforts to find
economical substitutes for
oil and gas as these natural
resources get scarcer and
more expensive.
That's the way engineers
size up the Annual Cycle
Energy System house, or
ACES house for short. It is
also called "the ice bin
house" because of the
basement-size tank of water
that sits under the living
room, garage, or patio and
freezes up every mid-winter.
Heat Pump Heart
The idea of the ACES
system, according to the
National Geographic Society,
is based on the fact
that in much of the United
States the heat you need to
get rid of to be comfortable
in your house during the
summer is just about equal
to what you must add to be
warm in winter.
Heart of the house's
heating system is the heat
pump, a variation of the
machinery that keeps
household refrigerators
cold. The Jieat pump, once
believed to be economically
worthwhile only in the
South, now is being used in
more northern climates,
thanks to improved technology
and to the rising costs of
fossil fuels.
The heat pump does not
burn gas, coal, or oil to
produce heat to run an air
conditioner. Instead, it
removes heat from the air
outdoors and warms the
house with it in winter, and
pumps heat out of the house
to cool it in summer.
Electricity is needed not for
heating but mostly to run
the heat pump's compressor.
In the ACES house, the
heat pump takes heat not
from the air but from the
large tank of water that has
gradually warmed through
the summer. As the heat is
absorbed, the water drops to
freezing and Marts turning
to ice-just as a pond outdoors
freezes in winter's
grip.
Ready Reservoir
Then, as spring days start
turning into a hot summer, a
reservoir of icy water is
ready to cool the house.
Coils of pipe, filled with
water diluted with alcohol so
it won't freeze, twist
through the ice water tank.
The water-alcohol mixture
is chilled and pumped
continuously through a heat
exchanger where air picks
up the chill and blows it
through the duct system of
the house.
By the time winter comes,
the ice has all melted, and
the water has picked up the
summer heat taken from the
house during the cooling
days. The circulating wateralcohol
mixture then begins
slowly taking away the heat
from the water and warming
the house, again by way
of the heat exchanger and
air ducts.
The most ideal climate for
an ACES house is within a
broad band across the map {
split of 36 degrees north
latitude, a line that runs 1
within miles of Winston- |
Salem, N. C., Nashville,
Tenn., and Oklahoma City.
Farther south, backup air
conditioning may be needed
and farther north supplementary
heating, which
could be solar.
So far, test houses near
Knoxville, Tenn., and Pittsburgh,
Pa., have been
successullly heated and
cooled with ACES systems,
and in Wilmington, Del., a 60
bed Veterans Administration
hospital will use the
system.
Pass The Mustard,
It's Grilling Time.
This summer, as the AllAmerican
hamburger sizzles
on the backyard
barbecue, government
scientists are slaving in a
hot lab to come up with a
better burger.
The U. S. Department of
Agriculture, which buys 400
million pounds of ground
beef a year for its school
lunch programs, has scientists
tasting and testing
hamburgers in order to
evaluate government specifications
on maturity and fat
content.
The scientists' work might
ultimately shape the hamburgers
Americans bite into
every day—at the rate of 11
billion pounds a year. By
1980, USDA researchers
predict, Americans will
gobble up 14 billion pounds
annually.
Improving the Patty
"If we can convince
industry that we have a
better way to make a
hamburger patty—one that
is more palatable and will
keep them out of court—we
think they'll be interested,"
Dr. Russell Cross of the
Agricultural Research Service
told the National
Geographic Society.
The research is focusing
on a new method of grinding
beef to remove the connective
tissue, or sinew, and
other undesirable particles.
Sinew is tougher in older
cattle, the animals that
unually wind up as hamburger.
"ft the connective tissues
can be removed, specifications
on minimum grade
may not be necessary," Dr.
Cross said.
*ai, usually laxen trom
the trimmings of young
cattle and thrown in to
flavor hamburger, is also
being eyed. Hamburger now
cannot be more than 30
percent fat, and the researchers
want to determine
how much fat makes
for the best flavor.
"If you get much below 15
percent fat content, the
meat tends to get dry and
tough," Dr. Cross said. "I
prefer mine between 20 and
24 percent."
Hamburger does not have
to be cooked well-done to
destroy potentially harmful
bacteria, another scientist
working on the study said,
adding: "I prefer mine
medium-rare." He said the
greatest hazard can occur in
the home when cooked meat
comes into contact with a
plate or chopping board
where raw products have
been prepared.
Customers Galore
Rare or well-done, hamburgers
are still selling at a
whopping pace in the United
States and at least 20 other
countries. A new restaurant
chain in the Midwest called
Chutes dispenses hamburgers,
among other "fast"
foods, through pneumatic
tubes to customers in their
cars.
Although its origin is
controversial, the hamburger
is thought to have been
inspired by Tatar invaders
inhabiting the Baltic region
in the Middle Ages. Sailors
from Hamburg, Germany,
who saw the Tatars eating
the raw, chopped meat took
the idea home.

"Shoe peg" corn is a
wholegrain white com with

distinctive flavor.
Some 25,000 persons annually
take examinations to
practice law in Japan.
The American Medical
Association says malpractice
Insurance now costs
doctors about 1.1 per cent of
a $15 office visit fee.
In the 19th century
German immigrants
brought the seeds of what
was to become the American
"Hamburger" to this
country.
The broiled and bun
version came later. Many
gastronomes believe the
winning combination first
occurred in 1904 at the St.
Louis World's Fair. But
owners of Louis Lunch, a
tiny cafe in New Haven,
Conn., claim that "hamburgers"
were first served
there, in 1900.
Declared a city landmark,
the brick luncheonette still
serves up its specialty daily.
