Safeway'i "Store of Tomorrow" Opens This Weekend URJK1 ; , "''-.it" , v "V it; ' 1 l .' - Newest Ideas Presented In New Safeway Stores Offorlng the utmost In con venience and sanitation, Safe way presents the nowest Idcus In food merchandising in the spurkllng new stores opening this weekend, one at South Sixth and Shasta Way, and one at 211 North Eighth.

The stores are new from front to back, even a complete hew slock of merchandise is on tho shelves and display stands for the opening tomorrow. Naw Ideas The produce department which is located In the left front corner presents many new mer chandising Ideas. Only a small quantity of each fruit or veg etable Is displayed on the new produce racks. The large stock of fruits and vegetables is kept "garden fresh" in a largo steel produce cooler located in tho slock room, from which the front display will be constantly re plenished. The prlco tags are on the stands and not sticking in tho produce Itself. The newest ideas in refrlgcra' tion are Incorporated In the meat department. There Is not one ploce of wood In the walk-In meat storage room. It is alt stainless steel and as clean and spotless as a home kitchen. In direct soft white fluorescent lighting illuminates the triple glass meat display cases. There are four refrigeration machines in the meat department, one for each case, which makes it pos sibla to keep perfect rcfrlgora tlon In any kind of weather, There are also special wall fans in the meat department. A feature that will appeal to summer shoppers is tho air con ditioning unit which cools the whole store. One feature, which Is something new for food stores and which will not benefit the customer, is tiled shower and rest rooms for men and women employes. There are also pri vate lockers for employees. Floor Covering.. Tho floor covering of the new Safeway stores, which was de signed to relieve fuligue of em ployees and customers, Is a rub berized spongo effect. In tho rear corner of tho stock room all trush will be disposed of in a built-in incinerator. There is spuco for 44 cars on the large concrete purking lot which will be floodlighted at night. Exterior The exterior of the building is cream with red and black tile under the front windows. There is a permanent marquee over the front sidewalk and heavy screen doors at tho entrance. The in terior walls arc light green and the ceiling is soft cream. Tho new Safeway store at South Sixth and Shasta Way, is of the same plan as the store at North Eighth, which many vis itors have already inspected. Tho merchandise In these new markets is in the same place in every storo of its type. Tho South Sixth and Shasta Way stores will replace the old storo at 2424 South Sixth, or South Sixth and Washburn. T. C. Griggs bus been a store man ager with Safeway for 13 years.

Private Gifts To Britain to Be Slowed Down LONDON, July 17 (Pi Prime Minister Churchill asked Presi dent Roosevelt in a letter pub lished Thursday that shipping space for vital war materials be saved by slowing the flow of private gifts and supplies from the United States to Britain. To enforce such economy, the foreign office announced that cargo space would be allocated hereafter only to shipments di rectly through the American Red Cross to the British Red Cross and women's voluntary services and through the British War Re lief society to the Personal Serv ice league. The principal effect in re stricting what Churchill called "the brotherly flow of materials" will be to cut Britons off from the tobacco, clothing and delica cies from America which added a luxurious touch to the rigid ra tion allowances in many homes.

MAY FLOAT OUT Because potato tubers from hills attacked by various virus diseases the previous year are lighter than tubers from healthy hills, they may be floated out in a salt solution, leaving seed virtually free of such virus dis eases, reports A. E. Gross, in charge of the O. S. C. experi ment station work in Klamath Falls. While use of certified seed is recommended as the best and safest procedure, the fact re mains that many growers do not or cannot use such seed, hence the value of a method of picking reasonably good seed from table stock. In experiments conducted with Klamath Netted Gem: Gross found that floating out about 65 per cent of a test batch of potatoes eliminated 92 per cent of the disease and brought increased yields of 30 to 40 bushels per acre. The tubers floated off were still just as usable as table stock as before, though both those and the seed stock require prompt rinsing in clear water to prevent damage, Strength of salt solution to use and other details of the method are explained in a cir cular of information No. 272, The idea is believed to have originated in Canada.
