TREES FOR PARKS AND BOULEVARDS * ' WILLBEPLANTED Beautifying of Public Land Is Sought by City of Indianapolis. Hundreds of trees from the city nursery near Riverside Park will be set out In parks and boulevards next month, according to city forestry tdepartment plans. The trees include sugar maple, Norway maple, elm, Ash, tulip tree, sycamore, chestnut and various kinds of oak trees. By regulating the distance trees must be planted apart, usually thirty feet, and restricting cutting and trimming to certain type and time of year, officials are making Indianapolis known over the country as a city of trees. City Urges Tree Care Activity of the forestry department this year has been centered on fighting scale and caterpillars which threaten the life of many trees. Caterpillars are very numerous. San Jose and oyster shell scale have been checked. City officials urge property owners to have trees trimmed and treated immediately in order to check the scale and to preserve the beauty and life of trees. . Increasing amount of falling limbs ft and lifeless trees* is due chiefly to ” inattention of property owners causing more rapid decay when limbs are broken. Summer storms have damaged hundreds of trees this year. Rules for Trimming City officials are not responsible for care of trees along city streets, although they regulate this by ordering trees trimmed or removed. Permits are necessary in every case, involves closing of streets and public safety. Ordinances regulate the trimming or planting of trees. A clearance of ten feet is required for limbs hanging over sidewalks. Another provision of the ordinance empowers the park board to order planting of trees or shrubbery if it deems advisable. Tree-trim,ners and cutters must be licensed by the city. The park board keeps a record of all licensed cutters. Building Permits Will Backmeyer, shed. 1246 Sheffield. $220.

WEEKLY Business Industrial PAGE ,

NEW POWER PLANT WILL SERVE 112 INDIANA CITIES Super-Power Plant Wabash Contemplates Widespread Service in State, Recognition of the heavily increasing demands for electric light and power service has caused, public utilities to adopt the plan of constructting great superpower plants to supplement and replace, in a measure, local or individual power units. This policy is not only nation-wide but international and, keeping abreast of most modern developments and leading the way in Indiana, the Central Indiana Power Company, through the Indiana Electric Corporation, is carrying out this idea by building a huge plant at Dresser, near Terre Haute. The electric light and power business, as the world now knows it, is only a few decades old—being in its infancy—yet this very essential industry is making such strides in its growth and purposes that the highest experts and most comprehensive minds in the business are taxed to their utmost to visualize the present and future and meet the demands. The rapidly growing cities and the calls for service from the rural districts compelled the electric light and power corporations to seek the, best ' methods of meeting conditions. Local j power plants ore being overtaxed and i outgrown and there is but one so-1 lutlon —build super-power plants where the best natural resources are afforded and transmit the electricity thus generated over great transmission lines to the centers and units of distribution. In a nutshell, this describes the purposes Os the subsidiaries of the Central Indiana Power Company serving 112 cities and towns in twentyeight counties in Indiana. The Company’s properties now have a number of modern individual power units !n this territory but the ever enlarg- | Ing demands require bigger facilities | and Indiana offers the most abundant natural resources in the way of cheap j fuel and water In the western part of the State. Knowing this, these interests acquired 3,800 acres of proven coal lands cn the banks of the Wabash river, six and one half miles south of Terre Haute, where an enormous power plant is now under construction to cost approximately $7,000,000, includihg the connecting transmission lines. The entire system of the subsidiaries of the Central Indiana Power j Company, compx-ising 112 cities and towns, will be unified at the eaiHlest I possible date and adequate service furnished for every need in this great I Industrial and agricultural section. The consu*uction of Super-Power S plants Is onfe of several big problems before men in the electrical inj dustry today. Other conceptions may | be enumerated as follows: 1. They anticipate the eventual complete utilization of the water ! power of the country. 2. They predict complete mo/torization of all industries so that whereever a wheel turns in a mill or on a railway its power will be electric. 3. Tiie complete electrification : through the use of electrical appliances is but a,matter of natural dej velopment ana the use of electrical ! conveniences in store and office will ; Increase proportionately. 4. They are confident that soon | every customer will own a share of | this business through the purchase of securities and that thereby the vision for the best development of the ownderful industry that effects every community and individual every day I and night of the year will be successfully carried out.

SULPHUR BATHS ' AID 10 HEALTH \ Nervous Disorders Are Particularity Benifited. No matter what season of the year is at hand It is usually imperative for the average person to pay particular attention to the condition of his health and to take some precautions to keep himself physically fit. During the summer months, when people are out In the fresh air and sunshine, there is less danger of ill health than in the winter months, when, of necessity, people must remain in the house a great deal of the time. Virginia Toens, 17% W. Ohio St., is specializing in baths for women only. The beneficial effects of a sulphur bath, when expertly administered, cannot be minimized. Especially is this treatment effective in nervous disorders and rheumatism. In other words, when the system cannot eliminate the poisons that are manufactured in it, it is then time to use some means of helping it rid itself of these poisons, and the sulphur bath has been found to be very effective means. The baths are all separate, with well-fitted dressing rooms and all are electrically equipped. A special study is made of the condition of each patient and baths are given wdth these conditions in mind. Many women visit the shop for obesity and the baths have proved a help to them. In addition to the baths, all kinds of beauty work is taken care of in this shop. The shop Is open in the eve-

well as during the cb-y to give thostT who are unable to visit the shop during the day a chance to take the baths at night. BUSINESSDECLINE NEARS END, SAYS PROFESSOR HANEY T I Turning Point in Economic Affairs Is at Hand, Business Expert Declares, OUTLOOK IS IMPROVED Present Indications Point to Resumption of Forward Movement, (Writent for United Financial by Dr. Lewis H, Haney, Director of the Bureau of Business Research, New York University.) NEW YORK, Sept. 3—The signs of the trend of business continue to be mixed and subject to optimistic or pessimistic interpretation, according to the feelings of the observer. My Judgment is that this mixed condition indicates that the bottom of the recent downswing Is near, that a turning poin is a hand. There is, however, no ldication yet of a very strong or pronounced upswing. To begin with the price level, the stock market and the Interest rate all Indicate improvement, or at least a checking of the downswing. The number of commodities showing advances of stability has further Increased and the Fisher index of prices registered the first decided gain in a long while. After standing at the low of 153 for several weeks it advanced to 155 last week.

This is of great importance for when prices cease declining, buying will pick up. Buyers usually hang back as long as further declines are in prospect. Now it begins to look as though most goods can be bought more cheaply than will be the case during the rest of 1923. The new mall order catalogue of a large Chicago maii order house shows advances of from 10 to 15 per cent in most lines compared to spring prices, though shoes are lower. Cotton goods are up. Iron and steel continue firm and wheat, while not able to hold the j recent sharp upturn, will probably not j fall to the low level of a few weeks j ago. Bradstreets index of 31 food articles rose last week. • While the stook market continues to be a professional affair with little participation by the public and a small volume of trading, it has been moving slowly upward since Aug. 4. On that date the average of fifty stocks was 7i..> while on Aug. 28 the average: touched 82, a gain -of nearly five points. The action of the market suggests that this sensitive barometer indicates a favorite outlook at present and, unless unforeseen developments occur, we may see a good recovery in ! security values beginning after Labor Day. The Interest rate on commercial paper has lately shown greater firmness, and a larger volume of-business 5 is at per cent, which leads to the! conclusion that the tide of business is ceasing to fall. Easy money tends/to encourage business. Ilatest returns from the railways are fairly satisfactory. While they show a probable decline in July net as compared to j(me, there will be a gain of at least 20 per cent over July 1922. The large expenditures by v northwestern railroads for mainten-anco-of-way and equipment are largely responsible for the failure to make a better showing. Car loadings continue to hold the very high level of recent weeks. All these things are evidence of an improved outlook for the future. On the other hand, one should not overlook the uncertainties, or the existence of the relatively low ..level of business. The Ruhr situation will not be settled for months, but the outlook is better than at any time since it became apparent last April, that there would be a long drawn-out struggle. The oil Industry faces great difficulties on account of the tremendous overproduction of crude oil and gasoline. Copper exports are low and the price of copper weak. The large recession in the cotton textile business and in building activity are ample evidences of the decline. In July the value of building permits declined and was only about 60 per cent of the March peak figure. Dullness Is reflected in last Week’s report from the Federal Reserve banks, with its decrease in bills discounted and in note circulation. The 1 increase in the reserve ratio indicates j no great activity in business. The same story is told by the bank clear- ] ings and bank debits. The average j dally bank clearings in August will probably he smaller than those of a year ago, with decided decrease at such centers as New York and Detroit, offsetting sains at Chicago and Dallas. Average daily bank debits during the week of Aug. 22 declined from the preceding week and was only 6 per cent over the same week last year. To sum up: It seems that signs of increasing stability indicate that we are near the bottom of a business decline which has carried us back a business lev,el only 5 per cent over last year at this time. .Present indications are for good gains this fall, which probably will carry over into early 19.24. It is still too early for any one to say how long the recovery will last or how far It will go.
