university, irom a meeting of the recently at Cedar Rapids, Towa. Prominent growers, agronomists, processors and producers in the soybean industry, from Indiana and all parts of the United States, attended the meeting. J. B. Edmondson of Clayton was continued as treasurer of the organization, and 'Erse] Wal--ley of Ft. Wayne as Indiana director. wd An announcement by the war food administration reveals that more than 12 times the quantity of soybean products available last year has been allocated to civilians for a 12-month period ending next June 30. The bulk of the supply will be used for meeting the critical nutritional needs of countries liberated or expected to be liberated by the allies, However, says Beeson, the amount allocated to this country represents a decided increase over the estimated 30 million pounds used domestically last year. Soybean products will be included in breads, soup powders, macaroni, breakfast food cereals and in pancake and similar mixes. They also will be available to the housewife in the form of flour and grits for use not as a substitute for wheat flour, but as fortifiers in breads, cakes, pastries, pancakes, waffles, meat loaves and other home baked dishes. It was brought out that the big Job before manufacturers of soy products ‘is in: improving these prodyets. An estimated 75° million Americans ate some foods containing soybean protein last year. It has ‘been established thatthe - use of soybefin protein results in less fatigue of the human body and an ability to work longer periods between meals.

LEBANON BUYS PUBLIC UTILITY

Six Years of Court Fights Ended; City Pays $352,000.

Sale of the electric distribution facilities at Lebanon to the city of Lebanon was announced today by President R. A. Gallagher of the Public Service Co. of Indiana Inc. His announcement following approval of a 10-year contract for the purchase of power wholesale by the city from the company, closes six years of litigation and negotiation. Lebanon voters in 1937 favored the acquisition of the electric utility by

courts- fixed the price in condemnation proceedings later, at $210,000. During long-drawn out legal entanglements, improvements were made and” the ultimate cost to the city was slightly in excess of $352,000, including the cost of power used by the city in the last months of litigation. - Public Service Co. retains its city substation, from which it alse supplies the Boone county REMC, other rural customers and the town of Ulen.

plying natural gas to domestic and industrial users of Lebanon,” said Mr. Gallagher, “and we hope Lebanon’s industrial development will continue as it has been going the last few years.” Lebanon's city council has set up a utility service board to manage the affairs of the waterworks, sewage disposal system and the newlyacquired electric utility. This move was made according to its sponsors, to keep the utilities out of politics and protect them against the changes incident to changing city administrations following elections.
