FRUIT PITS AND NUT
SHELLS FOR GAS MASKS
Woman, Girls and Boys Asked to
Save Pits and Shells for
Government

County Superintendent Roberts has
received several letters lately asking
him to enlist the help of the women,
girls and boys in saving fruit pits
and nut shells, which are used to
make charcoal in combating enemy
gas.
AS everyone knows, poison gas has
been used on the battle front during
the war and the only way it can be
combatted is to use charcoal or car
bon to neutralize it. The govern
ment needs more carbon and this car
bon can be obtained from fruit pits
and nuts shells. The boys and girls
are asked to, save peach pits, apricot
Morris tribune., 1918-09-13

/
pits, plum pits. cherry pits. prune
pits. hickory nuts. walnuts. butter
nuts and shells from all nuts.
1t is likely that Mr.. Roberts will
organize the boys and girls in some
way for collecting the pits and shells.
The pits should be dried thoroly in
the sun and later brought to some
central station, where they can be
packed for shipment. The Chemical
Warfare Service at Washington, d.
c., will send bags, shipping instruc-
tions and bills-of-lading SO that it
will cost nothing to send the pits and
shells.
Two hundred peach pits or seven
pounds of nuts produce enough car
bon for one gas respirator.
This new movement brings a new
slogan to the people of America. 1t
is: Can all the fruit you can and
save the pits for the government. !"
Nobody should smile at the govern
ment's suggestion that everybody
save the stones of peaches and pIums
for the use of the War Department.
1t seems like a little thing, but 1t is
something that all can do without
hurting them in any way. 1t is an
important matter, and about every
man, woman and child in the land
can have share in it. The stones
are wanted for useful purpose. The
