Gasoline to Help grower Food Prices “Of all gasoline manufactured in the United * States, 67.6% is used by automotive vehicles." (OU News, 7-5-1920, P. 42.) “Of all, the motor vehicles in use in the Middle | West, 65% of the total registration are farnierowned” (Arthur Capper Address, 1920). Gasoline is taking the place-of vanishing man-power 2 oh the firms; and not only does it reduce the > ) - man-hours required to produce a given amount • of food, but it also reduces the actual cost of* . < production, and this despite the advancing" price J of gasoline. (H. W. Quaintance “Influence of « Farm Machinery on Production” Power Wagon Reference Book, 1920, page 56L) Authorities agree that gasoline is a most important fictor in the production and distribution of ’ food products. • ; When gasoline is employed universally to increase the efficiency of man-power on the form, - we may look for vastly increased production , ; . and a consequent decrease in the cost of pro- ’ ducingfood. In the eleven Middle West states served by the Standard t)il Campany (Indiana) more than 100,000 tractors are in use, and the number ia increasing rapidly. In the states served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) the number of farmer-owned motor trucks is as follows: Kansas .... 1.732 , lowa . . .* • 2,773 Illinois . . • 2,261 Indiana ...» 1,548 , North Dakota . . . 501 South Dakota . . . 1,708 Michigan.... 1,636 Minnesota . . . 1,255 Missouri . . . • 2,065 Wisconsin . . . 1,465 Oklahoma . . . 723 Total . . . 17,667 (U.

The distribution service of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) brings petroleum products quickly and cheaply to- the farm when they are most needed. A Bis the plan of this Company,to make its distribution facilities the most perfect system of its kind in the world. To do this, largely Increased equipment is being installed. To supply this vast network of stations, trucks, tank wagons, etc., the Manufacturing Department is bending, its energies to devise means for producing an ever increasing percentage of gasoline from the crude oil obtainable, and at the fame time to keep users of other products of petroleum supplied with their needs.

Tying the Knot.

The performance of the marriage ceremony is often spoken of as “tying the knot" The expression may be of comparatively recent origin, a figurative phrase referring to the fact, that the contracting parties are united dr bound together in wedlock. Quite a* reasonable a supposition is that it has come down from the ancient Babylonians. At any rate it was the custom in old Babylonia for the priest who officiated at the wedding to fake a thread from the garment of the bride and one from a, garment of the groom. He wbuld then knot the two together and present them to the bride, a symbol of the matrimonial tie joining her and her husband.

Weighing a Perfume.

It was the Italian physicist Balvioni who devised a microbalance of such eartreme delicacy that it clearly demonstrates the loss of weight of musk by volatilisation. Thus the invisible perfume floating off in the air is ~tndlrectly weighed. The essential part of the apparatus is a very thin thread of glass fixed at one end and .extended herlsontally. The microscopic objects to be weighed are placed upon the glass thread near Its free end and the amount of iexure produced Is observed with a mlscroscOpe magnifying 100 diameters. A mote weighing onethousandth of a milligram perceptibly bends the thread. Isinglass. Wteglan Is the dried swimming bladders of several varieties of fish. The amount of gelatin In isinglass Is 86 to 98 per cent and evengnore. It is prepared by tearing die air bladder or sound from die back of the fish, from which it has been loosened by striking several blows with a wooden ’dub, then washing In cold water. The black outer skin Is removed with a fcnlffe, again washed and spread on a board to dry In the open air, with the white shiny skin turned outward. TO prevent shriveling or shrinking the Madders must be fastened to a drying board. The best quality of isinglass comes from sounds that are dried in the sun. .After drying the sound Is again moistened with warm water and, the interior shiny skin Is removed by hammering or rubbing. Finally it is rolled between two polished iron rollWR ■ । i;,- ~ - 1 ' “

Aertoal Expedient.

The English preacher, Stephen Jenkbm, was not a highly educated man, but he had a native wit which often helped him out of difficulties. One Sunday while reading as the Scripture feMon the third chanter of Daniel, he came to a batch at words that gave Mm trouble. “At what -time ye hear th* sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut. psaltery, dulcimer,” etc. Now this Itet of instruments 1* repeated several times in the chapter, and the second time he stumbled through it with even greater difficulty than the first Before he reached It again, however, discovered a way of escape. So the third time he relieved both himself and bls listeners by reading with th* utmost gravity, “And the band Maaad a* TTgfeKrfet I ■*" X •
