Skin TissueK Kept Alive,
Transp|anted Later by
Bethesda Scientists

Scientists at the Naval Medical
Center in Bethesda have been
able to transplant in animals skin
tissues which have been kept
"alive" in test tubes for several
weeks.
The development is part Of a
large Navy project to study the
possibility of transplanting to
humans skin tissue, bone and
blood vessels which might be
stored in banks" just as blood
now is stored for future use.
DR.. Albert Marrangoni. who,
with DR.. George w. Hyatt. is con-
Quoting the research, said that
preliminary studies indicate sue
cess in transplanting rabbit tissue
in a solution for at
least six weeks-to other rabbits
The rabbit skin Is preserved in
a blood serum solution containing
anti-coagulation factors. to feed
the tissue, he said. Penicillin and
streptomycin is added to the solu-
ton to keep it sterile.
DR.. Marrangoni said there is
little doubt that the growth of
human skin tissues can be main
tanned in a preservative solution.
He added the possibility that skin
might be removed from human
bodies soon after death for stor-
age.
It Is not known whether the
transplanted skin will continue
to grow, however, and the basic
problem depends on how much
we can learn about the funda-
mentals Of skin transportation, -
DR.. Marrangoni said.
The project moved under way
last fall with establishment OF a
bone bank at the Naval Hospital

Your Social Security
by Mary King Temple

When we get a claim for Old
Age and Survivors Insurance be-
nefits, one of the most important
factors to be considered is the to-
tai wages that have been report
ed by the workers employers.
Since these employers reports
are so important, l want to re-
view the employers duties under
the Social Security act.
There are many new businesses
being started, so a word to the
new employer first. Some 60 into
business without realizing that
the Social Security act provides
for two separate insurance sys-

Selecting fields adapted to cot
ton is especially important this
year because of acreage reduction.
If the following suggestions and
others from the Mississippi Seven
Step cotton program are followed,
yields per acre can equal or ex-
coed those of 1913.
First, make your farm plan, and
include the crop rotation best for
your farm. Cut out eroded or
slightly eroded parts of fields from
cotton production. Many such
acres are good for pastures.
Use, where possible, terraced
fields in the hills and well drain
ed fields with proper row ar
rangements in the Delta. This
will control the rate of flow of
water. Well drained soil that will
warm up early in the spring lends
itself to rapid and uniform ger
mination of cotton seed. Select
land with the highest humus or
organic content possible. Often
this is found following cover
crops.
The cotton field should be
adapted to the kind of equipment
you have. Some broadcasts or
row crops other than cotton can
be planted on arrow terraces or
in depressions in the Delta. This
permits faster and more economi-
cal machinery operations for cot
ton.
