I HEALTH FACTS FOR HOOSIER FOLK I : Q Information Service of the Sullivan County Tuberculosis Association. Jobs For TB "Cures" Not so many years ago tuberculosis was commonly called consumption,' the "wasting" disease. Novels, plays and even operas were 'written about lovely heroines whose lives were slowly

.ebbing away as a' result of this

disease. Today we know a great deal more about tuberculosis than we did at the beginning of the century.. We know that it can be cured, particularly if it is discovered early, and we know it can be discovered before outward symptoms appear by means of chest X-rays.

of the disease, we know that its victim is not necessarily doomed. The person who has had tuberculosis can return to useful, satisfying occupation when treatment has been completed. The only safe treatment is rest, complete bed rest, which is best obtained in a hospital for ihe tuberculous. When the patient receives his medical discharge from the hospital as "cured" or, as the doctors prefer to say, "an arrested case" : there is no reason why he should not seek employ

A QUIZ BASED ON THE ANNUAL REPORT JUST ISSUED

BY THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY (INDIANA) Messt of yaa may know little about us except that nearly everywhere you crddaa&FjEy drive your car you can roll up to a Standard Oil pump and say Til "& up!" But, because what we do affects your life in so many other ways, wed like to take you behind the scenes to see some of the things we've lean doing of late. We think it might prove more interesting to do it in the fcmas cff a quiz which won't be any great brain-twister, as the answers are dieitly below the questions.

1, In lev cadi of the United States &ss Vac&zii Gil (Indiana) operate ?

Like most of the rest of you, Mr. & Mrs.

Mid-America, we were "born

and raised an these north cen

tral state. From them we have spread ufc either directly or through subsidiscy companies until now we market in " -40 of the 48 fciatesi We market in 15 of tlueae states under the Standard Oil name. ( 2 Hos 6ms Standard of Indiana com$z:z a szs with other oil companies? There are larger oil companies and smaller ones, but it's generally known, sf course, that ours is one of the largest.To bring you high grade petroleum products, wherever and whenever you want them, takes almost limitless facil- . ities and equipment, and the skill and experience of many people. America needs big business as well as small, so long as competition is fair. We think curs has been fair. It must have been, for there ate many more small competing companies in our territory, doing very nicely, than there were earlier in our history. 9 V, Just how large is Standard of Indiana's business ? In terms of crude oil and refined products sold in 1945, it totaled 215,000,000 barrels. Transportation of this made ja. kit of business for pipe line men, railway men and truckers'. And it provided the stock in trade for 27,765 small businessmen, the independent operators of service stations handling cur, products. Similarly, our payments, in connection .with crude oil produced and purchased, were a source of income to thousands of land owners and independent oil producers. 4 Is Standard of Indiana active is the discovery of new oil fields ? Our search is never-end

ing. We have armed wells in 19 different states. Last year, our drilling was carried on in such varied places as West Texas, the Gfulf Coast, and Northwest Colorado. To those dis-

tant areas, we also extended our pipe lines to bring the crude oil to our refineries. Such operations are necessary if we are to continue to deliver gasoline in SaultSte. Marie, Kokomo, and thousands of other towns and cities. If we hadn't operated on a big, efficient, and economical scale, you wouldn't have been able to buy that gallon of gasoline for about the price of a pack of cigarettes.

What was the income of Standard

Oil (Indiana), and what was done with it?

In 1945, we received for crude oil, products, etc., $627,626,612. Out of each dollar, the owners of the

business the stockholders received only 3.7 cents. It took 57 cents of each Standard Oil (Indiana) dollar to pay for materials, transportation, and operating costs; 19.2 cents were paid to em- , ployees (including employee benefits); 15.5 cents went for taxes, depreciation and other costs; and 4.4 cents were retained for development of the business.

How many people are in the employ

of Standard Oil (Indiana) and how do they get along together? There are 36,332 men and women employed in the various departments and subsidiaries of the company. Longestablished plans for vacations with pay, sickness and disability compensation, and old-age retirement have helped stabilize our relations with employees. We 'have striven for and believe we have achieved good relations and mutual understanding with our employees, both non-union and union. We have entered into contracts with 108 separate union organizations.

Why was more money retained In

the business than was paid out in dividends? Because we must spend about $150,000,000, this year if possible, to make improvements we couldn't make during the war and to build new equipment needed to keep pace with technological progress. Such expenditures give the public better products and service, support the jobs of employees, and make investments in our business more secure.

How many people own Standard Oil

(Indiana)?

97,166 stockholders ownour $819,659,938 ,of net assets. Noin-

f dividual among them

owns as much as 1 per cent of the stock. ' The largest stockholder is not a person, but an institu-! tion for the public

welfare, and it owns between 4 and 5 per cent. Among-the stockholders are 684 charities, ichurches, educationalinstitutions, etc. 10,296 other corporations, insurance companies, protective organizations, etc.; and 39,631 women.

What is Standard of Indiana

doing in research ?

Our research expenditures last year were $3,700, 000. New research laboratories, now under construc

tion near the refinery at Whiting, Indiana, will enable us to double our present research staff there to number some 420 scientists and 800 assistants and technicians. The primary aim of this research is to give you constantly more and better products; however, our researchers will follow up their more promising discoveries wherever they may lead. 10 And what makes Ihe wheels go 'round"? We continue in business to make money. The stockholders, who invest their savings in our tools and equipment, are entitled to a reasonable return. So are the employees, who do the work. We make money for many of you when we supply you energy-packed products for profitable use at little cost. The hope of profit has resulted in the production in America of more of the good things of life for more people than any other nation has produced at any time in history. Our hope of benefit, for all concerned, causes us to seek new ways to serve you, to build new research laboratories, to improve our.'properties in your com

munities, and to keep in mind always that we must treat you our customers the way you want to be treated.

However, many farmers are planting at rates adapted to open pollinated corn. While stands today are better due to high germinating seed, yet rarely does a Hoosier farmer plant thick enough to induce some barren plants which is evidence of planting for maximum production. Big ears harvested are not evidence of highest possible acre yields, as Purdue tests show that higher yields are reached on good soils when ears average around a half pound rather than . 10 or 12 ounces. Rate of planting is determined by soil' fertility and water holding capacity. On 40 bushel or lower fertility levels, or on very droughty soils, rate of planting

should not exceed the equivalent of two grains per hill. On fertile soils on which most county demonstration ulots are located, four grains per hill have consistently given from eight to ten percent higher . yields than three grains. Most farmers fear the effect of a dry year but even in the severe drought of 1944, the thicker planting on the fertile soils did not reduce the yield. Two grains per hill on 75 bushel corn land have usually reduced

the yield from ten to fifteen bushels per acre under three grains. Whether the corn has been checked, hill dropped, or drilled has caused little variation in yield as long as the number of corn plants peracre has been kept the same. Consequently the population of corn plants may be increased without changing the method of planting. However, most farmers step up tne population of corn plants by setting corn nlantr wheels closer together. This plan is all right as long as rows aid not made too narrow ' for cultivating or harvesting equipment. Stands, of corn rarely equal planting rates in these county demonstrations. Three grains per hill usually average about two and seven tenths mature plants, and four grains often re?ult in three and five tenths corn plants. Stepping up population in line with fertility and moisture is an important consideration in most effective corn production. Planting after May 20 to keep down
