Lapidap Skill
is Taught to
Wounded Tanks
BY ED BARLOW
un,,.s pres. staff Correspondent

United Press staff Correspondent
VAN NUYS. Calf. - W.D-
Over in a corner Of the occupa-
tional therapy room of Birming-
ham General Hospital stands a
strange machine with strange
name-a lapidary.
Wounded American fighting
men are learning a pleasant and
profitable new trade through
the designer, builder and donat-
or of the machine. Cassius w.
Ferguson of Burbank. Calf.
Ferguson instructs tn e s e
"Men of the Purple Heart" in
grinding, cutting and polishing
precious and semi-precious
stones.
Seated before the compact
cabinet-like apparatus, a man
with one arm can take inexpen-
sive, rough-cut stones and turn
out finished products bringing
many times their original cost.
FULLY EQUIPPED
The machine was designed es-
pecially for use by handicapped
persons. Divided into two COM
partments and powered by a
small motor, it carries full
equipment for saving, cutting,
grinding, polishing and shaping
the stones.
While the device is new YER
sion of lapidary, some Of the
tools are not. A 54-angle jam peg
for facet cutting or beveling is
of a 5,OOO-year old design. The
pump drill, resembling a small
crossbow, was used 10000 years
ago in a crude form. Ferguson's
model is made of metal, with a
tubing.
Incidentally, the Chinese,
who originated the first tools
for stone-cutting long before
Christ, have ordered so of Fer
guson's machines for postwar
delivery. They have also pur-
chased American jade for ex-
port to the erstwhile Jade
Kingdom"
Before the war, Ferguson, ex-
planned, all cutting and polish
ing was done in foreign coun-
tries by cheap labor. He believes
a wide new field has been open
ed by combat for Americans.
Ferguson can train anybody
to operate the machines. OF
course, he had a good start as
trainer of the st. Louis zoos
famed acting chimpanzees and
other animals.
Mrs. Ferguson converts stones
and gems into jewelry, using sill
yer pieces for mountings. She
thinks wives Of disabled service
men can aid their husbands by
fashioning and selling rings,
pendants, bracelets, tie clasps,
pins. lockets and earrings.
All this work is done by
hand, with the silver heated
over a small Bunsen burner and
twisted or formed into proper
shape to receive the stones.

has saved countless lives. Medi-
cal aid and other necessities have
reached prioners of war in man
ner that is miraculous. In addi-
ton to- the regular services OF
the Red Cross are numerous other
activities.
A program of this scope cam
not be carried on without a gen.
erous fund. That is why it be-
comes a necessity as well as a
privilege for Kennewick residents
to fulfill their quota of $500.
This is not an easy task in spite
of the fact that workers report
wholehearted response through
out this area. It means diligent
work on the part of every Red
Cross worker to reach every sin
gle individual in her allotted area,
to collect even the smallest OF
contributions.
Let's remember our approx
mately $50 men and women in the
armed services-let's put kenne-
wick over the top.

You know, every once in a
while a new bulletin is published
by the Extension Service of the
State College, and you may be
interested in keeping up with the
latest information on any par
ticular line. The Home Econom-
les bulletins. will be mentioned
from time to time.
A very fine bulletin has just
been published, entitled ''Irrigat-
ed Pastures for Central Washing
TOM. A brief description of the
characteristics of the grasses and
legumes are described. Mixtures
for various conditions are given,
together with the suggestions for
the planting and care.
It has been amply demonstrated
that the use of high yielding pas
ture is the cheapest method OF
producing high quality milk, beef,
or other animal products. The
lack of sufficient pasture makes
necessary the purchase of more
grain and hay. Increased use OF
pastures greatly reduces labor re-
quirements during periods OF
labor shortage and much less pow
er, machinery, seed and fertilizer
are required as compared to Guilt
waited crops. Anyone who is plan.
ming a pasture program should
secure this bulletin from the
County Extension Office.
Also there is a revised copy OF

Chicks and Pullets". This carries
the latest recommendations of the
State College on rations, care.
management and sanitation. Cop
les are available.
pruning Bearing Apple Trees"
has just been reprinted and can
be distributed from the agents
office.
Along the economic line several
bulletins have been published.
One of them, a vital subject is
washington Farmers Weigh the
Future, and another, wartime
Land Market Activity in the State
of Washington. Then, the publ.
cation, "Timely Economic Infor-
nation for Washington Farmers"
is printed every three or four
months. The latest is January,
1945. Anyone wishing to receive
this regularly may have his name
placed on the list and it will be
mailed at every issue.
A rather odd conversation took
place the other day. A business
man, vitality interested in agri-
culture, asked me how many
farmers read this column. I told
him I did not know, but asked
him how he could find out. He
suggested that I write, stating that
every farmer reading the an
nouncement would be given a
brand new one dollar bill. He
didn't agree to furnish the one
dollar bills, so the plan was
dropped. Even through one dol
lar bills are not being given
away, your county agent would be
glad to hear from you. Your
comments or reactions will be ap-
preciated. If you agree-that's
fine. If you don't that's fine too,
because it shows you are thinking
about it. Anyway, the editor of
the paper would like to hear your
reaction or comment also.
