door chime has been developed to
eliminate these unnecessary steps.
I It features three different musical
| signals — a continuous harmony
( chord that sounds as long as the
I caller presses the button; two sym
I phonic notes in sequence, and a sin

Infra-Red Ray for Cotton.
The newest wrinkle in cotton gin
ning is the use of infra-red rays
to dry moist cotton. The idea is to
keep a constant heat all through the
ginning process. The cotton is heat
ed while going through the extractor
and stands. A battery of 32 infra-red
lights is set up on each unit. By the
time the cotton passes through the
press there is little moisture left.
Heart of Asparagus
Asparagus is grown in nearly all
sections of the United States, but
large industrial production is limit
ed to a few localities. In 1945, in the
nation, 126,258 acres were used for
commercial growing of asparagus.
About half of this acreage was lo
cated in California. Principal areas
of production in that state are Sac
ramento, San Joaquin, San Fernan
do and Imperial valleys.
May Become Short
Fertilizers may be difficult to get
when they are needed next year. So
it’s a good idea to see your dealer
now and make arrangements for
1948 fertilizer, say county agricul
tural workers. The safest plan is to
get delivery of fertilizer at the ear
liest opportunity.
