r- ? j* FOR ATWO'C WE ARE now building a duplicate ?et of lock* tor the Panama Canal, and the Zone, as they prosaically call It, It teeming with fresh crops of young " American engineer*. Most of them were born long after the Canal was started and some actually since It ^as opened In 1911. Of course there Is a Quinine really made the locks possible. residue of the old guard who built the Canal, and frotu them one gets the Impression that the duplication plan Is going to be second only to the original Job In scope and importance. There Is. for instance, the question of laboy nnd housing. Already frantic j\fui?? eiiBimii'rs ana inoir wives arescurrying about looking for quarters,, and as yet there are not enough buildings to house the thousands of temporary laborers that 'have coine from Jamaica and other British West Indian islands. The American preference FAMILIES TO BE ASKED FOR UNUSED ALUMINUM . The nation's gigantic aluminum. gathering campaign, scheduled for the .week of July 5!i w.ill give every family and opportunity to con til? !>ute directly to the National D?fense Program. says Dr. 1. O. Schaub. dlrecor of the N. C. Slate ( allege Extension Service. During that week, voluntary work ers will call at the homes of Airier lean families in every State asking for any old aluminum not in use. Purpose of the campaign is. to suppiemen* the vast supplies of the metal needed for the production of defense equipment, especially fight Sng planes. Among the Items which may be contributed are: pots and pans, radio parts, toys, shakers, screening old washing machine parts, picture frames, book ends, ice trays, nieas-. wring cups, camera equipment, ket-; ties and double boilers, bottle and J ^ jar caps, refrigerator plates. and dozens of others. ''Anything that's made of aluminum will do/' Dr. S?haub said "That old kettle with the hole In It that's been lying around for years will help in making a plane. A careful search of pantries, ' basements, back porches, and outbuildings will probably reveal several 1terns no longer usable that will go : to increase our present aluminum W supplies." In rural areas, it has been pro-1 posed that 4-|H Club members and home demonstration club women' ' .call on homes in their communities to collect the aluminum scrap. Dr. ( Schaub said farm and home agents fhave been asked to lend a helping hand In this important defense campaign. iS. ~ EXPLAINS HOW TO HANDLE FARM FAMILY MILK SUPPLY i/ISi {. i The handling In the home of niilk produced by the family cow has long been a troublesome problem, i says John A. Arey. Extension dairy j specialist at N. C. State College. "You find almost as' many different flavors of milk and- butter as r there are farm homes," the specialist said. "As a matter of fact, cows do not produce all these many fla-! vored products. The different tastes found in dairy products In different homes are due to the different ways the milk is handled." A simple method of handling the milk will solve almost any problem that arises from the home produc-1 tion of dairy food. Arey added. He said that the best container for milk from one or two cows is the standard glass milk bottle. Just af> | ter milking, the milk should be! strained thru a good filter-type .strainer after which the filter clofh should be discarded. Three to four folds of cheese cloth can be used when a filter| type strainer Is not available but It > is necessary to sterilize the cloth ' with boiling water after each use.. | Unless the cloth is sterilized, it will ? * ? - ? ??t ItnAlnrlnl 11-\ f j. *% ill f tin it' nuiUW vm uui.ici t(i i nut*.- , tion to milk each time the liquid llJ^ll^^^ MjHUHAI HK;-'.:| J *1.00 V?lut-(S^15M I tol I ItTipi rWwiri tnm I I r?ii.ll??, l?|Mr Mt, KMt, V?J.

THE )CEAN NAVY | I for British negroes dates hack to the III old construction days. . Malaria, except at the Pacific and Atlantic terminals, la still a very serious prublem. as no effort was made to I sanitate the whole length of the Canal. I And thousands of mon must now work for five or six years in this unsanltaled area. And It' was proved from 1904 to 1914 that tho British negro is better able to stand malaria than the natives of Panama, and far better than any- j one brought down from the States. The health authorities in the Canal Zone are malting preparations for the i inevitable flare-up of malaria that so | nearly wrecked the original canal. They have not forgotten General Gor- j gas who boasted that at tho peak he was giving 40 thousand doses of quinine per day. A good deal has been , learned about malaria since then, and I the huge doses of quinine given in 1904-1014'will'be replaced by 20 grains per day for 5-7 days, whlcb is the j dosage preferred by the United States Public, Health Service. But men, and even doctor?, get careless In the midst of large-scale construction Jobs, and tt will take the ever-watchful eye of the mcdlcnl director to see that quinine Is .not only issued but properly used. Upon this drug, as lq the early days of the Canal, tlio success of this lock duplication scheme will no doubt depend. * is strutted through It. After straining, the milk .should* he poured into uttrt bottles . A small tin funnel Is j good for use to prevent spilling The bottles then should be capped with standard milk bottle caps. Sev eral months' supply" of caps can be bought for less than 50 cents. The fnilk next should be cooled lit ! cold water'before it Is removed to the refrigerators or Ice box.
