Indiana Is as far advanced tn the development of superpower as any state tn the Union, accenting to claims of the Indiana Public Utility Association. The accompanying map shows that the state is a veritable network of high tension transmission Hues. But much remains to be done, according to electrical men. to give Indiana a com ploted superpower system. Superpower, acCbrding to the definition of .Herbert Hoover, simply means Interconnection of electrical facilities. •When all systems of current carriers are Joined, either by working cr emergency connections, each system "ill have available for tise all the power facilities in the territory, interruptiotis in service, or Insufficient supply of elertricity. In any given locality will then be unknown. Such a condi tlon will place' the state in the most enviable position industrially, ftluob depends, as any manufacturer knows on power that is both plentiful auJ

INDIANA GAINS IN SMALL GRAIN VALIES Indiana farmers realized more on .small grains this year than in according to the Agricultural Foundation which that the national increase in grain values, amount to $550,- j 000.000. Oats alone were respon-, sible fer a gain of 13 millions? while wheat brought farmers of i this state an added 12 millions last year, the report states. This compensates in a measure for the 33’ million corn loss suffered by Indiana farmers this year. The 3 million bushel increase in the wheat crop in Indiana this year brought the value up to $44,000,000 as compared with $32.000,000 of 1923. The oat crop of this state this year is up to 65| million bushels as compared to 48| million bushels the year before with the result that farmers will have taken in 30 million dolors on this crop as comoared with 17 millions the year before. , ' • The yield per acre on com in Indiana, the report states, dropped to 23 bushel per acre as a result of unfavorable weather. The wet days on the other hand, were a great help to the wheat nnd oats production, the former raising to 179 bushels per acre xs compared with 16.5 the year before, and the latter to 37.9 troiri *- in * . vUL ♦vSo Ui VitV •

cheap. At the same time this will mean improved living conditions and modern facilities for the people generally. "Interconnection,” says Charles L. Henry. President of the Indiana Public Utility Association, “means the same thing with regard to power it means with regard to transportation b> raiirdod. We can only conceive of the immense advantage that we derive from interconnection of all steam railroads. or electric railways, otie with another, witli uniform gauge and uniform equipment, through trains and through rates, by picturing to ourselves the situation if each of the originci short roads had remained independent and unconnected. "interconnection of power systems does not mean consolidated ownership any more than it has that meaning in the case of railroads. It simply means, that power would flow from the transmission line of one company to that of another just as-cars pass from one railroad to another. Herbert Hoover

has said that we have In the United States about 6,000 separate power systems, less than 10 per cent of wbieh are interconnected Each maintains a large reserve capacity to insure supply and reliability. If all were connected, each could abandon a large proportion of this reserve and could pour the remainder into one central reservoir, much as reserve funds of banks* are poured into the federal reserve banks. Isolated plants in the nation as a whole are used only per cent of their capacity on the average. Interconnection would use them to 59 per cent and would give us cheaper production, greater reliability, larger volume of production, better utilization, and conservation of coal." Electric utilities of Indiana are steadily carrying forward the work of interconnecting lines. The time is not far distant, elect, leal leaders say, when it will be difficult to find an isolated community or an isolated factory, electrically speaking, in the stat* of Indiana.

Davis had 29 per cent and Mr. LaFollette 16.6 per cent. In 1920 Mr. Harding had 61.6 per cent, and Mr. Cox 34.9 per cent of all votes cast. In 1912 Mr. Taft had 25.1 per ,cent. Wilson 45.2 and Roosevelt 29.6 per cent. Mr. Coolidge lost Oklahoma.

HISTORY MAOE IN FACTORY i French Revolution Said to Have Had I Its Inception in Institution of j the Reveillons. — Included among the first wall paper makers In America was Joseph Bumstead, of Boston. He traveled in France in 1824, and also ten years later. He left an Interesting diary of the industry. Buinstead visited the Zuber works In Alsace and in his diary wrote that Zuber had succeeded in 1829. In making the first paper in continuous rolls at his paper factory in Ropperswiller, and had sold the English rights for $5,000. In 1850 Zuber took back from Manchester, England, the first wail paper printing machine used in France. A few years later near-, ly all wall papers were machine printed In designs that were mostly bad. / History records that it was dt a w all paper factory, the famous Royal Manufactory of Reveillon, that the French revolution broke out/on April 18. 1789. Reveillon employejFmore than 300 workmen. A rumor fiad been circulated that the workmen were to be taxed 15 sous a day, and that “bread was too good .for Jhem." A mob assembled and proceeded to pillage the factory. The furniture and fixtures were thrown out Into the street. The troops were called out Reveillon fledA to London where he passed the remainder of his life. x CASTE PREJUDICE IN INDIA Not a Bar to Any Occupation, Though the Observance Is Most Rigidly Enforced. There are four main castes In India —the Brahmans, Kshatriyas, Vaisyas and Sudras, corresponding traditionally to the occupations of priest, warrior, trader and artisan. But though this would suggest that caaje was at one time a class distinction, yet at the present day a caste may Include all classes save that of priest, which is reserved to the Brahmans. Caste is no bar to any occupation. A rajah may be a Sudra. His cook may be a Brahman. The rajah is of a higher class than his cook, though of a very much lower caste. And though the Brahman will cook the rajah’s dinner, he will not eat it with him, or permit fils daughter to marry the rajah. Though it is not looked upon with approval, marriage Is possible between castes which are not widely separated. In particular, a legal marriage can take place* between two contiguous castes. But in all such mixed marriages the children belong entirely to the lower caste. Music of American Indians. “ "The music of the American Indians is solely and simply vocal. It seems to be generally agreed by mukical authorities that the Indians’ songs have in them nothing borrowed from instruments, nothing of artificial instigation.- An Indian melody never serves two sets of words. There Is no instance, it appears, where the i people have sung the different stanzas lof s ballad to the saibe air. A largs proportion of Indian songs'are entirely without words at all, syllables bet Ing employed to carry the tones, i Perhaps the most striking peculiarity of Indian music is the lack of definite pitch. The Indian begins his song where the natural quality of his voice and his mood at the time render it easiest for him to sing It. The pitch of the song depends upon the individual—Washington Stan No Doubt About It. Mr. Newlywed was on his honeymoon, and as he had married a very pretty young wife, he lost no chance of telling everybody with whom he came In contact that he was a married man. “I went rooms,” he announced, as heZapproached the hotel reception clerk, trying to appear as nonchalant as possible. “Certainly.jdr,” said the clerk. “For how manyT* “For myself and my wife,” replied Newlywed. “Yes.” said, th® clerk. “Suite, strF “Sweetr cried Mr. Newlywed. “Os course she is!” Doer On® of th® Family.
