Washington - Atomic scien-
fists now are seeing what they
can do to help the farmer.
Radioactive products from
the chain-reacting uranium
pile at Oak Ridge. Tenn. are
being used in large quantities
on experimental farms.
In one type of experiment,
the Bureau of Plant Industry
of the Department of Agricul-
ture. is seeking new informa-
ton on how plants absorb phos-
phorous from soils. The phos-
phorous is made radioactive
by exposure to radiotion in the
uranium pile. and its tagged
atoms" are traced in their
course through the plants di-
gestive system.
In another type of expert
ment, the bureau is studying
seeds which were exposed to
the Bikini atomic bomb explo-
sion. AS exposure to radiation
sometimes causes the offspring
of plants to have character
istics redically different from
the parent, 1t is possible that
useful new plant varieties will
be developed.

In cold weather our body engines
need far more fuel than during the
heat of summer. It's time to forget
the suggestion of a light salad and
a glass of milk for lunch and a
fairly light meal at night. That's
fine for next summer, but right now
fuel dishes are in order = the
kind Of foods that enables the body
to thrive in low temperatures.
Steaks, cakes, cheese, rice, eggs,
macaroni, spaghetti, egg noodles,
bread, pork chops, bacon and dozens
of other common foods may well be
called fuel foods. Rich in car
bohydrates, proteins, or both, they
are ideal for the winter table. Some
of these may be served plain"
Others blend with different foods so
that they may be served in one
surprise dish after another, to the
delight of husband and children.
Take the healthful egg noodle as
an example. It's one of the famous

and egg noodles. Fits right into
the menu when shortages or high
prices make other energy foods pro-
hibitive. 1t may be blended with
chicken, butter, salt and pepper and
served as a noodle-chicken platter.
Next week it may be blended with

Not only the comparatively high
level of general postwar employ

determined Efforts of progressive
trade unions to outlaw diserimin-

factors, Mr.. Thomas pointed out.

paper napkin she had drawn the
picture of a man and woman. A
collection of paper nut cups she
had saved from other parties for
souvenirs, were filled with candy.

These materials, however, are rare
