PRESERVING NEWSPRINT
Yellow and crumbling newspaper clippings can be preserved using this technique suggested by the National Archives and reported in an edition of "Tree Climber". Mix 2 teaspoons of magnesium carbonate and a quartof club soda in a large plastic dish. Sandwich the clippings between 2 pieces of screen or Pellon (sold in fabric stores) and soak for 30 minutes. Mop excess water with blotting paper and allow to dry overnight on more blotting paper. Then store clippings in a well-sealed flat plastic bag. They should last forever.
