Grange News Criffin Creek Grange Griffin Creek Grange held Its regular meeting May 14 with most officers present. The agriculture committee reported that recent rains have been a boost to crops and pastures in the valley.

Herman Kamping read an account of the potato grower and spoke of the decrease in the number of farms in the farming states because small farm operators are taking jobs in the cities.

By ROBERT G. SHORTAL UPI Correspondent New York (DPD Some day you may cook, run your appli ances and heat your home with energy derived from the sun. American industry is devel oping a whole line of consum er products powered by solar en-f-iy. They have only tapped the surface in what is fast shaping up as a multi-billion-dollar market. The sun-source of all life on earth-has fascinated man down through the ages. This interest became more practi cal after the discovery of elec tricity. The goal was to con vert solar energy directly into electricity and put it to work for mankind. Great progress has been made toward this goal. Solar energy is being tamed. One of the newest applications is a still camera which automa tically sets its own lens, using the energy of light as its only power source. Many Other Ways Solar energy is being put to work in amny other ways: -Hoffman Electronics Corp. has a solaradio that gets its power from batteries housed in the handle. The batteries, which convert sunlight into electricity, can power the ra dio for months after being ex posed to the sun's rays. -The Seth Thomas Division of General Time Co. has a so larium clock powered by cir cular cells. A week's expos ure to sunlight will run the clock for a full year. -The Garrett Thew Studios are turning out solar cigarette lighters. A small parabolic mirror focuses the sun's rays on the tip of the cigarette which fits into a holder at tached to the mirror. ' -Umbroiler Co. has come out with a solar powered bar becue grill. . , Solar Stove -Pioneer Plastics is produc ing a solar stove made "of two conclave rectangular reflec tors of aluminized plastic. Cooking . temperatures vary from 350 to 450 degrees. -Otarion Listener Corp. has an eyeglass hearing aid that can use either sola renergy or a tiny battery. Thin silicon cells placed in a clear plastic dome capture the sun's rays and turn them into electricity. The Arizona Institute of Atmospheric Physics has built a solar research house which scientists may lead the way to a practical, low-cost harness ing of solar energy for resi dential heating and cooling. I -The Massachusetts Institute-of Technology has con structed a three-bedroom house that gets most of its heat in the winter and all of its hot water from the sun. Solar energy already is pro viding auxiliary heat for many homes and heats water in thousands of homes in Cali fornia and Florida. In Mexico and India solar energy is used for cooking. Industry's most immediate fascination with solar energy centers on the solar furnace, a device that concentrates heat from the sun on a small area just as children use a magnifying glass to burn pa per. Principle Not New This principle, is not new. Archimedes, the Greek scien tist, is famous for having de stroyed a Roman fleet during the siege of Syracuse in 212 B.C. by focusing hte sun's rays on it with a burning glass. The modern solar furnaces can produce temperatures ranging to more than 6,000 degrees fahrenheit, about 60 per cent as hot as the surface of the sun itself. Last year, the U. S. Army activated a furnace that concentrates the sun's rays from 1,420 square feet into a four-inch square. The Army's furnace can generate heat up to 5,000 de grees and can burn through quarter-inch thick steel in sec onds. The furnace is being used to test quartermaster ma- MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. 1 0 Tuesday, May 19, 1959 .v. S-.y.-T.y...------:---t''tf;frr-iyr-,i .'AIM. .u.aA. vA v vafrM&K&(& E Join Now! Join now.
