More and Better Light F)R more than 30 years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been a big refiner of kerosene oil. During all this time there has been a steady improvement in the quality of its product. This improvement has been more marked in the nast ten or fifteen years during which time the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has developed methods of manufacturing to eliminate the danger of lamp explosions. While the kerosene has been improved the devices for using it have remained unchanged. Recognizing the fact that the users of Perfection Kerosene were unable to get a maximum service from the oil they burned, and realizing that the failure was due not to the oil but to the devices, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) set its experts to work to find a better burner and a more efficient chimney. These men, working with the manufacturers of burners and chimneys, have succeeded in developing devices which increased largely the efficiency of the oil. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) does not sell lamps. But it believes that the users of lamps should be informed as to how to get the best results from the kerosene they use. To accomplish this result this Company is distributing sixty thousand of the new burners and chimneys to dealers handling kerosene that they may demonstrate to their patrons how to get the most light from Perfection Kerosene by using appliances correctly designed. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has arranged with leading chimney manufacturers to stamp chimneys made in accordance with the design and specifications with the following trade mark: ) This is but one of the many ways in which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) seeks to increase the efficiency of the service it is rendering the people of the territory it serves.

POINTS ON GARDEN PLANNING A garden laid out according to plan usually gives twice as many returns besides saving a lot of time in figuring cm where to plant and what to plant next. Take a tape or yard stick and measure off the garden. Draw it to scale on paper and figure out where everything is to go and what crops are to succeed others. If the garden space is small say as

small as 10 by 10 feet, it is a question of which vegetable will yield the most returns. A surprisingly large amount of vegetables can be grown in even this small space. It is well to decide upon two main crops which may be grown at the same time as as a succession. Tomatoes and string beans offer a good solution with radishes, lettuce and young onions as the first crop the tomatoes and beans to foliow. The beans taking compara-

lively little nourishment from the soil compared with othor vegetables may be grown In rows between the tomatoes, which shond be placed three feet apart each way ami trained to single stems tied to stout stakes at least five toot high. When the string beans have jbeen harvested there will ho opportunity to follow with crops of turnips of carrots for full. A dozen tomato plants can bo grown In this space, leaving pj< nty of room for the other crops between the rows. Prom a dozen well grown tomato vines a lot of fruit maybe harvested during the season. It' the string beans are not desired, carrots, beets or turnips might be put in. Tn planning the garden, particularly a small one, it Is bent to run the rows north and south to get. a better distribution of sunight and so that one row doos not cut off the supply of sunshine from another, which often happens when the rows are run east and west, and taller vegetables-are placed to the south end. NATIONAL PRESIDENT COMING TO INDIANA In addition to the two political speakers, tho woman’s point of view will be presented at the mass meeting of the third annual convention of the Indiana League of Women Voters, which is to be held in Lafayette, Tuesday evening, May 9. by Mrs. Maud Wood Park., president of the National League of Womeen Voters, who through her two years’ activities as president of the two million members of the National league of Women voters is closely in touch with the attitude of the women of the United States toward questions civic and political. During her presidency. Mrs. Park has spoken before many state League conventions, great mass meetings, and natoinal conventions of educational societies. She is greatly in demand as a forceful and convincing speaker and Indiana’s women are delighted to know that she is to come to Indiana for the state convention. In January 1917, Mrs. Park was chosen Congressional Chairman for the national American woman suffrag Association. In this capacity she directed in Washington, the final and successful two years' campaign for the passage of the federal suffrage amendment through congress. During these years Mrs. Parks set a new standard for lobbyists, education and converaasion of Congressmen rather than threats, intimidation, or offers of trades or deals. - - SEED COMBINATION FOR BEST PERMANENT PASTURES Native pastures are becoming less abundant with the increase of cultivated land. Those native pastures frequently do not have heavy stands of plants and consequently not a stiff , sod. Red clover and timothy are the L seeds usually sowed by farmers for . pasture, because of the cheapness of I the seed and certainty of a stand. t However, such a seeding is not very . permanent and timothy is not a par- , ticularly good pasture plant, says Prof. M. L. Fisher of the soils and crops department of the Purdue School of Agriculture. A better combination for ordinary soils is as follows per acre: Timothy 4 lbs. Red clover 5 lbs Alsike clover 4 lbs. Kentucky blue grass 15 lbs Red top 4 lbs. Sow the clovers in the spring; the timothy, blue grass, and red top in either spring or autumn, preferably autumn. Sowings can be made on oats, but preferably with wheat or rye, or alone. Pastures should be dressed annually with 200 pounds per acre of a fertilizer carrying two to four percent nitrogen, 12 to 14 percent phosphosic, acid, and two to four percent potash. Liming once in five years and a covering of manure once in three years will greatly aid success.
