PIGNUT HICKORY.
(C1ryG gldbra.)

tCuIyu gtuOTu./
Hickory trees have contributed
much 10 the comfort of mankind.
The wood of these trees has the
greatest fuel value of any wood
One cord is said to furnish as much
heat as ton of coal. 1t is the
choice wood for smoking meats
Millions of hams are cured and
smoked in hickory wood fumes, and
the resulting flavor is unsurpassed
These trees have range from
Vermont to Michigan, south through
Illinois to the highlands of Missis-
sippi and in Alabama and Georgia,
They are found in open pastures.
on the dry ridges and in the fertile
coves.
Two hundred to 300 years are re-
qulfed for the hickory to mature.
Many Of them live to be 400 years
old, some reaching a height of 120
feet. with trunk diameter of about
S feet. Normally, the height Is 100
feet.
The cloSe-grained wood is pale
brown, shading to creamy white.
1t is a hard, tough, resilient wood,
the heaviest of all our commercial
hickories. Because it is shock re-
sisting, it is widely used for tool
handles and athletic equipment
where toughness and strength are
necessary.

nate flowers appear in May, Just

flowers are found on the new growth

breezes sift the pollen to them. and
here. later in the season, will be seen
the dark brown pear-shaped fruits
Late in the autumn the hard
shell splits open along the four
sutures to reveal the smooth brown
slightly angled nut One cannot
praise the kernel for its flavor or
consistency, but it is highly appreci-
ated by some.
Just before the fruit is ripe. the
leaves which in summer. were
rich dark green, turn an attractive
yellowish-g green. then flutter to the
ground. They are lance shaped
leaflets 3 to inches long. and three
TO seven Of them are arranged alter
nately on the slender gray to red
dish brown tWigs. At the base of
each leaf stem in late autumn. Will
be seen a small reddish brown bud

terminal ones, have doWny scales

which were used by Stone Age peo-
pie in Europe. Usually, they were
made Of flint.
People OF the caves were able to
get along without forks, but they
needed knives to prepare the ami
mails which they brought in from
the hunt.
Those folk were quite willing to
hold meat in their hands-if 1t
wasn't too hot-but they wanted
knives to divide the meat, so each
person could have a piece.
The first knives had no handles.
They were simply cutting blades
made of stone.
With the passing of time. the idea
grew of making handles to fit on
the blades. When a handle was
fastened to the blade. the knife
could be used more easily.
AS the Stone Age turned into the
so-called age Of civilization" peo-
pie began TO make knives with metal
blades. Copper and bronze were
used for this purpose. Later, came
iron and steel blades.
Tableware Of solid silver is fairly
common today but We find steel
blades on knives even in Sterling
silver sets Steel can be turned
into stronger, better-cutting blade
than silver.
The cutler" was an important
workman Of the Middle Ages His
task was to turn steel into knives
with good cutting blades. Having
no power machines. all his work
was done by hand. His trade gave
rise to one Of our modern family
names, Cutler
There are cutters to this dav. They
are persons who work in the making
or selling of cutting instruments.
Table knives are turned out bv
the thousands in large factories.
Some of the knives are made all in
in one piece. but many have blades
and handles which are made sepa-
rately and then put together.
Steel blades for knives often are
heated 10 temperature of l.74n de-
grees F. before being PLUNGED in
water. Heat of that degree will
produce a stainless steel blade.

Knives, forks and spoons are so
common that we seldom give a
thought to the story behind them.
Yet a history may be written about
each Of them.
The oldest of the three is the
knife. 1t was known far back IN the
Stone Age. Stone knives with sharp
edges have been found in caves

to relieve the acute gas shortage
in the District and Eastern
States was regarded as a Ger
tainty today, but OPA officials
have rejected a proposal from
the Agriculture Department to
cancel temporarily all A, B and

"As far as OPA is concerned. no

or C rations is contemplated now, .

about the Agriculture Department S
proposal.
He indicated that OPA would de-
pend on curtailment of T rations
used by trucks, buses and taxicabs
and the ban on pleasure driving to
ease the situation.
