—THE—WEEKLY MARKETGRAM I 1 Week ended May fi, 1921: Grain. — Prices advanced considerably during the week due mainly to good demand, light offerings, strength in cash mui<et und small wheat stocks at Chicago. Mar wheat showed most strength and on the third advanced eight cents.

DO NOT LET GARDEN PLANTS GET TOO THICK Do not allow your plants to grow too large before thinning them. Is the advice of Purdue University horticulturists. Nearly all home gardeners plant mure seed than necessary, in order to get a full stand Os plants. As soon as these are large enough to handle easily, all excess plants should be pulled out, leaving enough space between each plant remaining for the vegetables to develop properly. If this practice is not followed, not only do the crowded conditions cause tall, sprindly, unhealthy growth, but the excess pldnts act as weeds, using up the plant food and moisture that should be available for the crop.

The distances that plants should stand in the row in order to have enough room for proper growth varies with the different crops and with the different varieties of each vegetable. In general, plants of Rush beans should be 3 or 4 inches apart. Beets, carrots and salsify, 3 to 4 inches, Endive 8 to 12 inches, kale 18 to 20 inches. Kohl Rabi. 4 to 6 inches, leaf lettuce 6 to 8 inches, parsley, 3 to 6 inches, parsnips 3 to 4 inches, radish. 1 inch, spinach, 3 to 4 inches, and turnips 3 to 4 inches. Leaf lettuce is generally thinned several times. The first thinning is not done until the plants are of such size that a few removed here and there may be used as salad and will give room for those remaining to grow larger. Later a second and third thinning takes place again giving room for those remaining to grow larger. Later a second and third thinning takes place, again giving room for further growth. By this method a great deal larger crop may be obtained from a limited space than if the small plants were given maximum distance at the first thinning. Radishes and carrots are ordinarily not thinned until some are large enough to use —unless of course the seed has been sown exceptionally thick. Thinning of spinach too is delayed until the small plants removed are large enough to use as ‘'greens". s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s CUT THIS OUT—IT IS WORTH MONEY Cut out this slip, enclose with 5c and mail it to Foley & Co., 2835 Sheffield Ave., Chicago, 111., writing your name and address clearly.

I The Significance of Maintained Quality OF highest significance to the motorist is the fact that during those times when the demands for gasoline have been so great as to threaten positive famines, Red Crown, the high grade motor gasoline manufactured by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), maintained its standard of quality in the face of every difficulty. Impartial tests made on authority of the Government proved Red Crcwn surpassed the specifications set by the Government for its requirements of motor gasoline. These facts indicate the ideals of service which animate the activities of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) m every department of its business. To maintain the quality of a product when the demand is normal is a general practice. It is when demand is pressing and the supply is low that insistence upon maintained quality is a true measure of a manufacturer’s integrity. To maintain the quality of each product at the point set by the technical staff is an outstanding characteristic of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Red Crown is a good example. Another is Fortoite long-time burner oil This product is used in railway signal lamps. These signals are often located at points remote from human habitation. For public safety their uninterrupted service is of the utmost importance. It is essential that the oil shall bum with a clear, bright flame for days at a time without attention. During the blizzard of January, 1918, lamps filled with Fortnite, located high up in the Rocky Mountains, burned night and day during the ten days that traffic was tied up, and at the end ot that period they were giving perfect service. It is only by multiplying such records of quality and integrity of manufacture over a long period of years that the reader can grasp the degree of public confidence enjoyed by Standard Oil Company (Indiana). i Standard Oil Company (Indiana) L9lO So.
