RADIO ON THE FARM The rodio, while generally regaidcd as belonging more to urban than to rural, life, has Income pcpular in the country. The department of agriculture recently completed a survey showing that 145.000 farm famines are now equipped with radio receiving sets. Rtv'-I upon an estimate of five persons tn a family, this would mean that there are now 750,000 rural radio fans canable of tuning in and hearing the various programs put on at broadcasting stations. The radio may work as a greater influence than the telenhone. food roads, electricity or the motor car in keeping people on the farm, for these conveniences, in many cases, only increased the hunger for things urban.

I HOUSEHOLD HINTS | Cold tea is excellent for house plants. Use gelatin immediately after dissolving for ice cream. Novel shp covers are of Turkish toweling, calico and linen. Dull files are sharpened when laid in dilute sulphuric acid. When fresh meat begins to i sour place it outdoors overnight. Rubber fingerstalls are excellent to wear when slicing vegeI tables. To remove mildew, soak in a ' weak solution of chloride of lime rand rinse in cold water. The round centerpiece should be ironed from the center to the edges to avoid puckering. Dip fine ginghams and percales in sweet milk instead of starch. This preserves the new gloss. The best quality enamelware | \is the cheapest in the long run, as it is the only grade that does ; not chip easily. If the milk strainer gets clog- ; ged up, rub table salt through it land it will instantly be cleaned ’ and be as bright as new. Soak ink stains in pure sour | milk. If a trace is still left rinse the spotted garment in a weak i solution of chloride of lime. If there is too much salt in ; soup it can be made palatable by ' putting a piece of raw potato in | the pan for a few minutes. School children's rubbers, umIbrellas and wraps should be marked plainly with the owners names to prevent loss or theft. Potatoes will bake in a much shorter time if, after washing, they are allowed to stand in boiling water ten or fifteen minutes. Choose a cool day for airing the pillows. A hot day will make them hard and heavy, as the heat draws the goodness from the feathers. When making filling for lemon pie throw the w’hole lemon rind into the filling for a few minutes just before thickening. Then remove and finish as usual. The labor of stirring milk may be obviated by putting a large, clean marble in the pan. The marble will automatically do the stirring while the liquid cooks, and there will be no burning. i o ——■— MORE FORESTS BURNED THAN ARE CUT DOWN Government figures show that in agencies depleting our forests, the ratio of burning to cutting is nearly two to one. During 1923, there were 51,891 forest fires in United States, burning an aggregate area of .11,500.000 acres with a financial I Toss in excess of $16,500,000. Some idea of the extent of this ravaged area mav be gathered from the fact that it is eight times the acreage of French forests destroyed or damaged throughout the World -War—and this, too, in one year. Only 26 states are making definite efforts to protect their for- ' est lands, aggregating 16.000,000 acres, from fire. From July 1, 1922. to June 30. 1923. they expended *1,826,430 for this purnose. This is only a little more than a cent an acre and not enough to weigh heavily on ahy taxpayer. o Advertise in the Journal

In 1918 our Chemical Warfare Service was by Congress allotted 48,000 men, and $100,000,000 was the appropriation for its use. Sixty-three poison gases with impossible names, but twenty-six being deadly, were actually used in the late World War. Now comes GrindeTl Matthews, an English scientist who has discovered a “certain invisible ray” less or any other electric apparatus tP cease to function. It will take films which, thrown on a screen simultaneously make audible the voices of the actors. Matthews gave a demonstration, stopping motor engines, causing nowdor to explode and to lio-ht lamps. When engines of battleships and battlen!an o s can be stopped hv radio-aot’vitv, when nnwder can he exnloded, on ’■■nd nr at sea, hv fhig supreme force, the era of militarism will be necessarily one of the nightmares of the past. ' —o MEETING GASOLINE DEMAND Outlining his views on the petroleum industry. Pres. W. C. Teagle of Standard Oil Co. (N. J.) says: "As cost of raw material, i.e., crude oil, determines prices of nished products, the recent increase in crude oil costs resulted in advance in gasoline. “The public need have no alarm as to the sufficiency of gasoline supply, despite reduced crude oil production. Through adoption of improved refinery practices, and by further installation of cracking facilities and casing-head gasoline plants, the industry will be able to meet the increased demand. “Perhaps the public does not realize the revolutionary changes in refinery operations required in recent years tp meet gasoline demand. Only six or seven years ago gasoline recovery from cracking stills and casing-head gas plants was little known; neither was then developed to any general commercial extent. "The importance of these two new forms of gasoline recovery may be appreciated hv the fact that without them the gasoline supply of 1923 would have fallen ’nr short of demand.. “Cracking stills will be greatly expanded in use and in number when prices warrant the additional investment required by this means, and by further development of the casing-head gasoline recovery a further increase of possibly 75,000,000 barrels of gasoline could be added to our supply." ALL ARE DEAD Four children were bom to Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Boggs, residing between Plymouth and Argos last week. All died. The mother is 28 years of age. o ; General Isaac R. Sherwood, of Toledo, is the oldest member of Congress, to which body he has been elected as a Democrat, as a Greenbacker, as a Republican.

INDIANA FLOUR FOR INDIANA PEOPLE The value and importance of [ Indiana flour will be stressed in > a large and worth while exhibit to be placed in the new Purdue ‘ Building at the Indiana State fair. The Indiana Millers Associa- ■ tion, Indiana Bakers Association, Home Economics Association, and other organizations will cooperate with the Agricultural Extension Department in placing the exhibit and in the conducting of demonstrations on the value and use of Indiana flour. The Crops Department will also place an exhibit on wheat and will emphasize the slogan “Grow wheat you can eat.” The purnose of this is to emphasize the importance of farmers growing varieties of wheat which will nroduce a desirable quality of flour. “Thousands of farmers sell their wheat at the elevator or the mill and then purchase flovr from the north-western or southwestern states. If Indiana farmers and Indiana people in general, will not use flour from wheat grown in the they can expect this wheat to sell at a discount, for by their owm acts, they have lowered the value of Indiana wheat,” said Director G. I. Christie of the Agricultural Experiment Station of Purdus University. “Indiana women and Indiana Bakers find and have clearly demonstrated that Indiana flour makes excellent bread and other products. If Indiana people use Indiana flour and “cut out” transportation charges on wheat, and additional transportation charges on flour shipped in from other states, a great saving will result, to the people of the state and higher .prices can be gained for Indiana farmers.” The best way to improve wheat production and agricultural conditions is to support home indus-t--y and to use home products. The aim and object, of the campaign. exhibit and demonstrations will be to enlist Indiana people in the regular use of Indiana flour. , o— Canada is considering the Question of discontinuing legalized betting on the race tracks. Records show that about $60,000,000 is wagered during the few racing months of the year. Os this amount, $36,000,000 is contributed on race tracks in Ontario. While most of the money lost on Quebec race tracks comes from English-speaking contributors including visitors from theAJhited States, business men contend it is detrimental.

RAILROADS AND RADIO Practical utilization of the radio in railroad operation is under serious consideration by many of the nation’s largest raili roads. Study of the question is pro-: coeding along four lines: the us? ■ of receiving sets to obtain newsand entertainment c.n through nassenger trains: the use of radio to form a closer contact between officers and men; the use e sending and receiving apparatus on'both freight and passenger trains, and the development i

of a method of train dispatching in emergencies when wires are down. The most important of these probably, is broadcasting ty handle traffic. The plan would include one superpower broadI casting station to cover the entire line, and a number of smaiI lor stations, caring for a single division, with receiving sets at each station. —: o X-Ray for Swiss Cheese.
