Nov. 22.— No only was the division of geology of the state conservation department self-supporting dur- ■ ing 1924 but its receipts were nearly $6,000 more than expenditures. proving it actually made money for the state; says a report Dr. Logan, state geologist, has just filed with Richard Lieber, conservation department director. Dr. Logan's report shows receipts for fiscal 1924 to have been $17,235.53. and this amount exceeds the division’s expenditures for the same period by $5,860.93. Durinr 1918, prior to creation of the conservation department; the geologv division spent $11,530.46 and there were no receipts to offset this amount. A large part of the receipts .of the division cotne from royalties on minerals which the division by investigations discovered to belong to the state and to which the state’s right has been estab- i lished. Already more than $16,-; 000 has been'received from thi/ source, and it anpears very like-; ly that the total receipts will be sufficient to pay the expenses of the division for many years. Conservative estimates place thej royalty-receiving period at fifty years for the more productive’ minerals. The salary list of this eonser- j vation division is unusually! small. During the last fiscal year there was one full time em- J ploye and two part time employ-, es. who drew salaries from division funds. During 1918 there were four full time employes and four part time employes. By an arrangement with Indiana University. where Dr. Logan, the state geologist, heads the department of economic geology, the state division obtains the services of a trained corps of specialists in the various phases of geology without the necessity of maintaining a long salary list at the expense of the division's funds. BEE INSPECTION C. O. Yost, state apiary inspector, is conducting many meetings amongst beekeepers of the state, giving practical demonstrations how .to fight brood diseases and to increase honey production. Yost, works under Frank N. Wallace, entomologist for the state conservation department, and conservation officials point out that by an annual expenditure of about $7,000 for bee work. Indiana now produces and markets a honey crop valved annually in excess of $2(500.000. Bee inspection has raised Indiana to a position high’among honey producing states, and has also been of invaluable new to orchardists by reason of the bees pollinating fruit \l ——-—-—d-— —-— INFLAMMABLE ROOFS Sparks cn roofs. in the sixtv months between January 1. 1918 and December 1, 1922, caused a total loss amounting to exactly $50,666,652.

............. I I” —■ I HOUSEHOLD HINTS | ‘ I Pour boiling water over lemons before using. This will double the amount of tuice they will prod ce. Scorch marks left by the iron can be quickly removed if held under the cold water faucet a few minutes. Get the labeling habit with things packed and put away. It saves much hunting and digging later when memory has played a mean trick. Before blackening your kitchen range go over it thoroughly with sandpaper. This removes roughness and a smooth, even polish will result. To prevent custard dishes or glasses from cracking when pouring boiled custard into them place the dish on a damp cloth. This plan is most effective. | Kerosene in Vann water is a j fine medium for removing smoke and dirt from enameled woodwork. as it does not injure the glossy surface of the paint as soao will do. Stand fresh eggs upon the point ends in shallow pans, just one layer in a pan. and place them in a cool dry place. They will keen perfectly until warm weather comes again. When celluloid knitting needles become bent you can straighten them by holding them over the steam from a teakettle and then plunging into cold water to harden. Never, of course, hold celluloid near an open flame. t Table linen should be hemmed by hand. Not only does it look better, and more dainty, but there is never a streak of dirt under after being laundered. as with machine sewing. A new and interesting fashion is curtains made of oilcloth in solid colors. They are the length of the windows and are made to hang even apdjiare against the side of Vie sash: They are made [in different widths. A hem is turned and a weight placed iri [the hem. They are very pretty when made in blue, orange, gray and other light shades. tO . POST OF I . S.
