COULD USE TOMATO SEEDS Department of Agriculture Points Out How They May.Be ‘Made a Source of Revenue. That much valuable material is be- ing wasted annually by throwing away tomato- seeds extracted in pulping, soup, catsup and canning plants is in- dicated by investigations made by the United States Department-of Agricul- ture. Department investigators have found that more than one thousand tons of seed are thrown away annually in northern tomato-pulping plants, with large enough output of seed fQ pay for shipping, and that they may be méde into edible ofl snd\stock food worth | about $86,000 {December, 1919). Cost of collecting and preparing the seed is estimated at ebout $35,000, including | all proper charges, and the cost of the | necessary equipment is given at not to ‘exceed $50,000. In addition the same plant, which awould*run not more than five months in the year. could be used for the han- | dling of grape seeds and pumpkin | seeds, which would distribute the over- head and cut down the cost of many- fflctu;e of the tomato-seed products, Old Schooners Become Barge‘. Disposal of large numbers; of old| schooners, to say nothing of an over-) supply of new wood ships, has been a problem for the past few years. River| and canal men, meanwhile, have been facing a shortage of barg Putting these two facts together, stern ship- bullders have now evolved a’new form of schooner barg¢, made by removing | the upper works and the below-deck | cabins and bulkheads of the schooners.

" HOLDING = CHEMICAL TRADE Statistics Show That. Uinted States Has Been Able to Hold High / Mark Set During War. Official statistics for the fiscal year‘| 1920 demonstyate that this country has been able to keep its trade ia chemical and allied prodycts very near || ppone 578 the high mark set during the war, de- spite the loss of markets for purely war supplies and despite the pressing demands that must be met in the do- mestic market. ‘Such is the conclusion reached by O, P. Hopkins, a well-known statis- ticlan, wrifing in the Journal of Indus- trial and Engineering Chemistry. “In almost all lines except muni- tions,” he writes, “the exports in 1920 exceeded in value those of 1918, a fact that can be explained in some cases, perhaps, by rising prices, but which nevertheless warrants the assertion that the position has not been weak- ened. These exports, which very greatly exceed those of the last mor- mal pre-war year, are made up alinost entirely of manufactured products. “Imports have more than held their | own and comprise raw and partly man- ufactured products required for fur- | ther advancement by American chem- lcal manufacturers.” THESE SILKS NEED NO DYE | Louisiana Man Has Discovered Meth- od of Making the Worms Color Their Own Product.
