PUNCTUATION A comma is such a meek and unobstrusive little mark that readers are apt to ignore it as useless and insignificant. Yet the insertion of a comma once cost our government $2,000,000. In the revenue act of the For-ty-second Congress, more than 50 vears ago. appeared a clause intended to encourage fruit culture by providing for “fruit plants” to be admitted free of duty. Instead cf a hyphen between the two words, however, the engrossing clerk put in a comma, so the bill, as it became a law. read: "Fruit, plants, tropical and semi-tropical, for the purpose of propagation or cultivation." As a result, for a year, oranges grapes. I lemons, bananas, etc., came into this country without tariff, and the loss of revenue through the error was estimated at $2,000,000. The incident serves to. illustrate the importance of correct punctuation in the writing and printing of the business world, ■ — o TO PURCHASE “LIMBERIAIST* The Indiana division of the 1 Izaak Walton League at its annual meeting at Muncie Saturday passed a resolution urging the state to purchase the “Umberloat" Home of the late Mrs. Gene Stratton Porter and convert it into a state park.

REPORTS NOVEMBER ’ AS A RECORD MONTH

George N. Mannfeld, chief of the fish and game division of the state conservation department reports November as a record month in the number of arrests and convictions for violation of fish and game la>ws. In a report just filed with the conservation commission he shows arrests totalled 517 and convictions numbered 489. Fines and costs amounted to $9,068.30. the bulk of which goes to the school fund. Twenty-one cases remain to be Med and seven were dismissed. The four leading offenses during the month were: hunting or fishing without license, 242; taking or possession cf fur animals in closed season, 107; hunting on Sunday, 67; and hunting without consent of the fendowner, 52. November a year ago was considered the high, month according to deoartment records, but it was eclipsed this year by 49. Mr. Mannfeld in a letter to more than 200 fish and game protective associations of the state working in cooperation with his division to protect yet augment wild game and aquatic life, points out that the division is ielf supporting, and that in 4,3 years it has only received an appropriation of tax money amounting to $108,264. Such appropriations were received prior to the enactment of the conservation department. During the past fiscal year this division, according to Richard Lieber, conservation director took in receipts, chiefly from the pile of resident hunting and fishing licenses amounting to $l9O- - Such licenses sell for $1 and county clerks who issue them receive ten cents per license for their work, with ninety cents going to the division. During the past year the division from its funds completed a new fish hatchery at Avoca in Lawrence county, and negotiated the purchase of 8000 acres of land in Brown county where a game preserve and reforestation will be conducted simultaneously.

SOIL FERTILITY INCREASED

Kosciusko county is richer yearly by $200,000 because of the soil fertility produced as a byproduct of dairying, according to the Blue Valley Creamery Institute. The figure is based on data resulting from carefully kept records on a considerable number of farms.

The average quantity of manure recovered for use on crop lands in the area studied was 7.4 tons per cow. and since the fertilizing value of a ton of manure is $2.60 the by-product value of each cow is approximately twenty dollars. The /application of this figure to the 10.000 dairy cattle in this county brings the total added value to the soil fertility here to the almost unbelievable figure given above. In keeping with its better feeding program the Institute estimates that from 25% to 50% greater profit from each ton of feed can be made by local farmers who milk cows through irhorovfed feeding methods, alone. This was demonstrated, it states, by the experiment recently concluded by the University of Minnesota. The school’s dairy division about ax year ago purchased four average cows with available records but without a scientific feeding ration and by merely placing them on a homegrown ration suitable to their needs, increased each cow's production almost forty percent. o “CHAMELEON LAKES” It is well known that the water of many lakes exhibits characteristic colors. Lake Geneva, at the western end of Switzer, land, is blue, while Lake Constance, at the eastern end of that country, is green. Blueness implies purity, since the natural color pf water is blue. A green lake has its water slightly clouded with impurities. It is said that green lakes sometimes become absolutely colorless for a time, and it has been found that this sudden change of hue is due to the washing into the lakes of mud colored red by oxide of iron. Red is complementary to green, and the result of the mixture is that the green color of the water becomes for the time being neutralized. The fuel of the ancient Romans was almost exclusively charcoal. This was burned in open pans, without grate or flue, and gave economical heat for living rooms and baths.

WET WEATHER DRIVING A little care in driving an automobile on a slippery roadway may prevent damage to cars and serious injury to persons, an experienced driver writes. The car should be driven at reduced speed on wet streets. Block pavements are exceptionally treacherous. The car should at all times be kept under control. Acceleration should be gradual, as a sudden application of pwer to the rear wheels is likely to cause skidding. Inexperienced drivers should remember that the way to stop a skid is to turn the car in the direction of the skid. That is, if the rear wheels start to the right, turn the front wheels in the same direction. Turning them in the opposite direction only increases the skid. It is not well to throw the clutch out and apply the brakes. The safe way is to leave the clutch alone and not cut off the gas entirely, but keep the car under power and apply the brakes gradually, if at all. All of which sounds difficult, but it should be mechanical with the experienced driver. In applying the brakes on a wet street, even though not skidding, it is well to apply them easily. Should the car not respond, but continue with momentum unretarded, due oftentimes to the rear wheel.< being locked by the brakes, release Hie brakes for an instant, then apply them again gradually. It is an easy matter to lock the rear wheels vrith the brakes on a wet street, since the wheels then have so little tracion or gripping power. Itds well to remember that in the fall end winter, streets are wet oftener than dry. 'An automobile docs not always respond to steering, no matter how skill- i ful the driver, si those who j would avoid accidents should be! sure that the car is under control! at all times. o Eye Trouble?
