IN RECYCLING CIRCLES The Steel Company of • Canada is into the pop -rock music busi-. ness indirectly as a result of its. pollution control program: 'Stelco's emission controls picked out sulphuric acid, which was difficult, to dispose of safely and .not profitably saleable. Researchers, working on the problem, found they could turn it into hydrochloric acid which can be're-used. And there was a bonus—the process produced iron oxide which was almost !absolutely pure. 'This is used to provide the soundtrack on recording tape. - I wonder if it's used strictly. for acid rock music. In Boston, an, organic chemist came up with a process that uses worms to turn garbage into high- quality compost. Estimating that . a community of 75,000 people would produce 100 tons of garbage a day, he decided that 100 tons of worms could deal with that handily.

His scheme involved placing the garbage and the worms in a tube daily. So far no municipalities have taken him up on, the plan.p,You see, he doesn't say where you get 100 tons of worms in the first place. And he has no suggestions on how to separate the worms from the finished compost. I guess you could say there's still a few bugs in it. The old five -gallon milk pail has to be one of the ultimate re- usable containers. They were put, out for collection at the farm gate, sterilized and returned. And they lasted for years. Cans aren't used as much in these days of bulk milk transport. But the interior decorators took to them. I've seen them in bouti es with painted -on daisies a in- flated prices; for a as conver- sation pieces. And one motel I'vestayed in used them as bases for most of their dining and drinking 'tables. It gds with the Canadiana theme. Now if the decorators could only get a fad rolling for plastic jugs, metal cans and used bottles.
