Con Still Get
Trees For Form

Shelterbelt trees for the farm
are still available on application
through the county extension
office, according to G.. w. Gus
tafson, county extension agent.
A large number of orders have
already been filed but those
who are still planning on plant
ing such trees this spring are
urged to get their application
in now without delay.
These trees are available at
very nominal costs and grow
into splendid shelterbelts in a
very short time. They add
greatly to the protection and
Identification of the farm home,
Over 40 thousand trees from
this source have been planted
in the county in recent years.

Oregon Calves
Are Available

Calves from high producing
dairy cows of the Tillamook COW
testing association, Tillamook,
Ore, are still available to farm
ers in Big Horn county, accord
ing to G.. W. Gustafson, county
extension agent.
Recently 20 calves have been
shipped into the county. These
are of the Jersey and Guernsey
breeding and are from cows
having been tested for butterfat
production and having a proven
production of 300 pounds Of but
terfat or more. These calves
may not be available long be-
cause of the big demand for
them. Orders filed now have a
reasonable assurance of being
filled.

Emergency Loans
Now Available

Farmers are reminded that
if they are in need of such as
sistance, loans may be obtained
from the emergency crop and
feed loan section of the Farm
Credit Administration for the
purchase Of seed and for plant
ing spring crops" This state
ment was made today by Mr..
Bradley, field supervisor for this
territory.
According to Mr.. Bradley the
maximum amount which may
be loaned to any individual is
$4,000. The interest rate is 4
per cent, and the security re-
quired is a first mortgage OIL
the crop to be produced. The
loan becomes due August 81,
1912.
Farmers : who already have
their allotted acreage seeded to
winter wheat and wish to sum-
mer fallow, these loans are also
available, and as security we re-
quire a first mortgage on the
crop to be produced in 1913.
This loan becomes due August
81, 1943.

NAVY
BINOCULARS

Following a precedent estab-
lished in the first World War,
the navy is asking for the loan
of binoculars which meet service
requirements from patriotic cit
liens who now possess them, the
thirteenth naval district has an
nounced.
Two sizes of binoculars only
will meet the navy'S specifica-
tons. Six by thirty binoculars,
used for sighting ships and
large objects at intermediate OF
long distances, are wanted for
ordinary navigational purposes
Seven by fifty glasses, used
for sighting aircraft and dis
tinguishing ships at extreme
distances, are also desired. Be-
cause of the difficulty of OBJ
tanning spare parts for numer-
Gus types of binoculars, the
navy will accept the loan only
of Zeiss or Bausch and Lomb
glasses.
They should be sent, carefully
packed, to the Naval Observa-
tory, Washington, D. c. Each
instrument should be accom-
panied by an Identification tag,
bearing the name and address
of the sender. The navy will
pay 81 for each set of binocul-
ars accepted for use, and will
return them to their owners at
the end of hostilities if the glas-
seS are still in use.

give out completely" says Mr..
Buckman, "every incandescent light
in the United States would fail. A
small spot of tin solder is used
on the screw-in tip of every light
bulb. There is no practical sub
stitute for that solder in light bulbs
and in many other manufactured
items so vital to our present war
effort"
AS far as tin is concerned, Amer
lea is living on borrowed time.
The full extent of our stockpile
is a military secret.
But we are eating into our re-
serve," says Mr.. Buckman.
1T follows that the more tin
we can salvage from tin cans, the
less we'll have to dig into that re-
serve. It is difficult to paint too
serious a picture Of our tin situa-
tion or to overestimate the import
ance of WPB's program for sal
vaging prepared tin cans"
The technical procedure of ex-
tracing approximately one per cent
tin from tin cans-leaving approx
mately 98 per cent scrap steel
was reviewed by Washington news
papermen at Vulcan's home plant
here. Tin cans from the District
are shipped to Neville Island, near
Pittsburgh, Vulcan's larger plant
but the operation at both units is
substantially the same.
Process Described.
Briefly, the process can be de.
Scribed as follows:
l. Prepared tin cans are removed
from railroad cars by grab buckets
and dumped into baskets with 9
capacity Of about 10 tons,
2. The 10 tons OF tin cans are

Japanese In the great Solomon
Islands victory last week, q few Of
those 365 destroyers would have
made the job easier. Steel scrap
from the cans is vital. Tin is an
absolute essential.
One of the chief metallurgical
uses of tin, according to Mr.. Buck
man, is in the making of motors and
engines: motors and engines for
everything from battleships to
motorcycles. In either the shaft or
the bearing of every reciprocatiny
engine and electric motor or gen.
orator, tin is an essential component.
Vital for Engines.
One could not build any kind of
serviceable engine without tin.
That just about covers all features
of modern mechanical America and
the mechanical action of World
War II.
Tin is important for many rea-
sons, the two most significant of
which can be summarized as fol-
lows:
l. Tin does not tarnish. Only
one other element, aluminium, has
this property. But aluminium does
not have other properties of tin.
z. Tin has certain "anti-fric-
tion' property, the existence of
which has long been known but the
reasons for which remain obscure,
even in the minds of metallursists
This property is akin to lubricat-
ing quality. Tin keeps the effects
OF abrasion to a minimum.
Because tin is indispensable in
the manufacture of motors and en-
gines, the airplane, submarine, bat
tleship and tank cannot run with
out it.
The bus and the streetcar which
carry you to and from work daily
can't operate without tin.
Tin not only is needed in engines,
but it is needed in keeping engines
in repair. Even tin parts wear out
eventually. They must be replaced.
Component of Solder.
Tin is needed in preserving food
to prevent contamination from the
corrosion of steel.
And 1t is needed as a component
OF solder, which is used in a thou
sand and one different ways. Solder
Is approximately half tin and half
lead. In some instances, silver can
be substituted for tin in solder.
But the melting point OF silver is
high compared to tin and silver
solder will not work effectively on
metals with low melting points,
such as brass or zinc.

which dissolves the tin. The scrap
steel is then baled for immediate
shipment to steel mills.
3. After various chemical treat
ments, the tin is recovered by an
electroplating process, which builds
the reclaimed tin to the thickness of
an inch on a rectangular sheet of
steel approximately three feet wide
by four feet tall.
4. The plates are lowered into an
oil-fred furnace where the tin is

S. The tin is then allocated by the

materials without which America
would find 1t difficult to wage a

Tin Becomes Indispensable War Material;
Experts Agree on Vital Need for SALVAGE
D. c. Newspopermen
Watch Detinning
At Jersey Plant
BY LESTER GRANT,
Star Staff Correspondent.

SEWAREN, N. j., Nov. 21.-The
uch-despised tin can, which once
typif1ed the cheap and ridiculous,
Is becoming more precious than
gold.
Ask tin expert why America has
a tin can salvage program and why
tin, an element for which there is
no satisfactory substitute, is an in
dispensable necessity in the sue
cessful prosecution of World War
II and he'll remind you Of the fol-
lowing:
Without the tin can, lease lend
and military supply would fail.
The tin can endures the cold of
Iceland and the heat of Libya.
1t withstands bombing assaults.
Glass containers don't.
1t saves food from gas oontarlina-
tion in bombed areas. It bears rough
handling and outdoor storage.
Food Cans Salvageable.
After ship sinkings 1t can be SAL
vaged-food cans float, as beach
combers on the Nations submarine
infested shores will attest
And the tin can can be dropped
without harm to fighting men cut
of from their base.
A visit to. the Vulcan Detinning
Co. here elected this opinion from
Gibson Buttfeld, assistant to the
president of the firm. Local salvage
chiefs and War Production Board
experts agree. Henry H. Buckman.
who was technical counsel to, a
House subcommittee investigating
the tin situation in 1885 and is one
of the Nations leading authorities
on the subject, confirms the view.
Americas critical need for tin
brought on by Japanese aggressions
in the Far East, will, if unrelieved,
touch every phase of twentieth CEN
tury living and mechanical warfare
within the not too distant future,
according to Mr.. Buckman.
"Our tin shortage" he says, "and
the need for tin salvage program
cannot be exaggerated
