state to compete for a sectional
award in the Firestone All Soil

achievements during nine years
of club work include making a
study of his 9,S00-acre combina-
ton ranch and crop unit. A dam
was improved and contour diver
sion bitches constructed in a
large pasture which increased the
dams water capacity and i'm
proved the pasture. Pastures were
seeded to crested wheat grass
and crop land was laid out in a
strip cropping rotation on the
contour. This resulted in greater
yields and prevented further wind

whirling it in hig speed centrifuges
and electrolytic means.
The extraction in Tennessee fin
ally was done by two methods. The
one that produced the most 235 is
electromagnetic. Vaporized Urani-
UNI is given an electrical charge.
These particles are next speeded
up in a vacuum to hundreds OF
thousands of miles a second, by
the attraction of an electrical field.
Finally, still in vacuum, they
shoot out into a magnetic field
The magnet making this field is
the largest in the world, the one
originally intended for the $780,
600 Cyclotron at the University OF
California.
The magnetic field forces the
flying metallic particles to travel
in a sharp curve. The result is
like throwing applies of different
weights out of high window into
the street; if all are tossed with
the same force, the heaviest fall
farther out. The heavier Uranium
particles travel farther. These are
the 238 atoms. The 235 does not

ed at each toss.
In devising this process, which
is one of scores equally difficult,

ia different types of plates on
which to catch the atomic
particles.
The other method diffuses Uran.

of them can be caught before the
heavies pass through. This method
requires many acres of barriers
to obtain a few grams of 235.
In about two years enough Uran.

bomb or other purposes. These
methods may pay off richly now.
For they can be used to make fa1
more quickly and easily the con.
centrations of Uranium with an en-
riched percentage of 235 that will
help start the industrial fires.
