Not long ago popcorn that exploded ex-ploded into 24 times its original size was considered good. Now good popcorn expands 28 to 30 times in volume. Some varieties developed by Dr. J. C Eldredge and associates at the agricultural experiment station of Iowa State college have expanded 34 times in tests. This big an explosion ex-plosion doesn't always occur, and size 34 popcorn isn't available for popcorn growers. But it may come along in time. The bigger the explosion, the bigger, big-ger, fluffier and tenderer the pieces of popped corn, Or. Eldredge said. People like It better, even though they get less popcorn to a bag. Popcorn venders like it better, too, because it takes less corn to draw as much money in sales. Emphasise Explosions For years the emphasis in plant breeding has been to get the bigger explosions. The Job Is difficult, because be-cause the corn also must give high yields, stand up well and be suitable suit-able for machine harvesting. Only certain kinds of corn pop welL Moisture in the kernel turns to steam, and the kernel explodes. Tht steam pressure has to be gen erated quickly enough to produce a sudden expansion. It has been thought that the hull acted like a bomb cover, holding m the steam for a time. But this doesn't seem to be the answer. The bulls can be damaged and the corn ' will still pop. The popping may be due to the structure of the millions of starch grains in the kernel. Dr. Eldredge said. Research since 1928 here in the biggest popcorn-growing state shows 'some of the essentials for good popping. pop-ping. The temperature of the popper pop-per should be between 450 and 800 degrees. One part of oil should bs used for every five parts of corn. Most important, the moisture content con-tent of the corn should be about 13 to 14 per cent. ' Popcorn Production The United States produces about 150 million pounds of popcorn a year on the average and Iowa grows about one-third of it About half of the crop is sold to motion-picture theater chains and finds its way into vending machines. Wholesale grocery firms take 25 per cent, selling to grocery stores and popcorn stands. Many of the stands buy directly from local growers. grow-ers. The other 25 per cent is used by makers of popcorn confections eoated with molasses, syrup or cheese. This year the Iowa station is testing test-ing nearly 1,200 different crosses or trial combinations of different lines of popcorn. Each year samples are popped and measured for volume, taste and tenderness. The tests sup-plys sup-plys snowy mountains of popcorn which are sold on the Iowa State campus for the benefit of the Agronomy Ag-ronomy club, the student section of the American Society of Agronomy, 1 mm ward Beth Moon 0581-H1 Miss Neva Booth of Nephi has been a guest at the L.

The ww between the city of Colorado Colo-rado Springs and Sacketf Harbor, n. Y., over the remains of Zebuloo Pike is still going strong The latest development was scornful rejection by Colorado Sprigs of a Sackets Harbor peace offer. The Upper New Tork state town has suggested that Colorado Springs accept a small box of earth from Pike's grave and forget about its plan to install the general's remains re-mains under a monument on Pike's Peak- Mayor J'. N-. McCullough of Colorado Colo-rado Springs made the rejection official when' he said: . "Pike's peak l a God given monument mon-ument for the general and it's the nioca where he oucht to be buried. Doug Crouchi president of the. chamber of commerce, was a uiue-more uiue-more emphatic. It's Pike Bast "We want tc bring the general home and we don't' wan any dirt, he said. "The boys- set out to get Pike and that's what we're going to do." v- The Colorado campaign to remove re-move Pike's remain front the military mil-itary cemetery at Sackets Harbor where he Is buriedt and give the famed general a final' resting place atop the peak he discovered, gathered new momentum with receipt re-ceipt of the Sackets Harbor offer. The offer of Sackets-Harbor earth was made in a letter to the Denver Post from E. W. Dennison, assistant postmaster of the upper New York state town. Dennison sent under separate cover a three-inch, square box containing a sample of etrth he was talking about A reporter who lookeoMnside said it appeared that General' Pike now was buried under somewhat rocky soil The sample was full' of pebbles. peb-bles. Secretary Expresses Thanks-Howard Thanks-Howard N. Yatei, secretary of the Colorado Springs chamber of commerce, com-merce, was the only man in town who even suggested the box of earth might be welcome. 'Tell the man thanks," he askedt "We can plant that as seed and orient the ground so the general will feel right at home when he get here." Yates said he was sure the Pike monument plan would proceed and predicted the army soon would okay the move. Crouch regarded the Sackets Harbor Har-bor letter as an insult however, "That guy is trying to be funny," he said. "It's silly to think we'd take dirt instead of bones." But it wasn't funny to Asst. Post- master Dennison of Sackets Harbor, who wrote the letter and sent the box. "Anything we can do to help Colorado Colo-rado we are willing to do except to surrender the remains of Gen. Pike," he said. "We are a little hamlet, but we hold to our his torical past and we wtnt ttse gen eral here, because he sailed from here to his death at the battle of York." Dennison added a P. S, to his let ter. "I was in Denver 40 years ago," it said. "The only activity 1 saw was Market street." mm "f- V s. f .
