National Advertising Representatives SCHEERRE, INC. 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago <ls Lexington Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana league of Home Dallies GO AFTER BUSINESS: R. H. Ballard, president of the Southern California Edison company, Los Angeles, said: ".More new business is what we need and not so much talk of depression. Spend the money for new business campaigns and new advertising, and the results will be I surprising. The people have the I money and will buy goods. I believe, if somebody has the courage to sell them the buying idea." He pointed to increases in saving deposits, gains in new life insurance in force and increased buying of bonds as evidence of the ability of consumers to buy goods if they so desire. Affected, however, by the pessimistic drift of national comment, the public is reluctant to buy and consequently is building up a tremendous backlog of purchasing power. This backlog should and can be tapped, declared .Mr. Ballard, if American business men snap out of an apathetic state of mind and employ redoubled efforts to produce new business. This is not the time, in his opinion, to lay off salesmen and cut advertising appropriations. Ind Tana will have a corn shortage of 12.000.000 bushels this year according to Purdue estimates, whose survey is always as near correct as is possible. The drought ruined the crop in the western and southern parts of the state and it is said that only in a group of a

Miss Grace | Rowlands, 85. an d Charles Blanchford, 87, were married i | here recently. half dozen counties in this section is the crop any where near normal. Adams county it seems will harvest one of the best crops, both In size and quality, in several years and with the price at eight-five centa at present, we begin to see the rays of sunshine through the clouds which have hovered over the rural sections for a few years. Senator Strey, of Wabash, declares ho will insist on an Investigation of the funds used by the highway commission. He even goes so far as to say he will offer a bill in the next general assembly to abolish the commission in its present form. We know of no good reason why there should not be a report on any part of the state's government which handles twenty million dollars and would think the members themselves would wish to make It in detail and to submit to an examination. Recently President Hoover issued a statement that export trade in I August of this year ( had shown a decided gain. Naturally we supposed he mean it was a gain over the same month of 1929. but Congressman Byrns of Tennessee says there was a loss of $80,000,000 in comparison witli last year and accuses the president of assisting in putting out some propaganda for election purposes. Its hard to tell just what to believe these days, we get so many different stories. Indiana is one of five states which does not have a bonded indebtedness. The reason is that they can't have it under the present constitution which is just another reason why we should let the old basic law stand, instead of trying to make it possible for various expenses and costs to be add cd to what we already have. There are six men living in Indiana who carry more than a million dollars of life insurance. Those dependent upon these men, by the way. haven't much worry about their meal tickets for the future. All of them reside in Indianapolis, excepting one who resides at New Castle. The state tax rate will remain at

twenty-nine cents for next year, that Iming the same as this year. It required some close figuring but Ihe coming election argument no doubt saved the day for the tax payers. Whatever brought it about me people are grateful that no increase was made. Booth Tarkington. Indiana novelist. a patient in Johns Hopkins hospital at Baltimore, can see. He is blind in one eye and recently a successful operation was performed on the other. His Hoosier friends are hoping the improvement will continue steadily. Well, well, they are acting as though they didn't want Capone and his crowd in Chicago. He will probably drop out of sight a few weeks and then bob up again with business going right on in the meantime. Business which has been just around the corner the past year or two seems to have a half notion to emerge. Hope it gets so active that the corners are knocked off so they can't sneak back and hide.

AMERICANS EAT MORE FOOD IN 1930 THAN 1900 Survey Shows Increase of 150 Pounds in Annual Consumption Chicago Sept. 19 (UP)—The average American In 1930 win consume 150 pounds more food this '.'ear titan his predecessor of 1900. according to tho American Research Foundation. "Mote sugar, fruits, fats and oils and milk products are being eaten I by the people of the United States." jsays tile foundation. "The per capita consumption of .--.egar is estimated at about 105 IMtiinds this year, compared with til pounds per capita in 1900. Fats and oil wHI average about 44 pounds per capita ’his year, cone 1 pared with 34 pounds a generation ago. "Milk products consumption has increased from 840 pounds to 1.040 and fresh fruits ftotn 109 to 192 pounds per capita. “Meat consumption has shown little variation, ranging from 142 to 145 pounds a year per person. "Figuring the increases with the declines, the average per capita food consumption shows a gain of 150 pounds annually in the last 30 years. “An increasing preference .for energy anil lieat producing foods is evident in the modern American dietary. Sugar largely supplies energy, while fats are necessary in generating heat and power for the body. ".Meat, milk, and cream, and dozens of otliei items on tho daily menu have a high fat content. Tho exceptional value of fats is that in addition to supplying energy, they aid digestion by enhancing ’he palatahility of foods consumed in the average meal.” ♦ — —♦ Lessons In English » ♦ Words often 'misused: I) onot say "Do it like | tell you."
