This Is Fine

No gas pressure, no gas bill, will be
the rule in Kansas hereafter.
Under provisions of law passed by
the last Kansas legislature it becomes
the duty of the Kansas public utilities
commission to fix a standard pressure
for gas service and to compel the in
stallation of pressure gauges. regula-
tors and the like for determining and
recording the pressure. The consumer
then is to be billed according to pres
sure as well as according to quantity,
so that when the pressure is poor the
gas bill will be lower.
The Indiana public service eommmis-
sion is working out similar plan
based on heat units in gas.

Insects Do Much Good.

Although insects damage the crops,
stored products and domestic animals
in the United States to the enormous
amount of $1,2O0,OO0,0O0 every year,
nevertheless this damage is almost
compensated by the good they do.

insects as cross-fertilizers of plants,

friend, Jack Pershing. With much
detail he told me of those days on
the Mexican border when he and
Jack Pershing chased Indians. and
where years later, Jack Pershing
was to chase the Mexican outlaw,
Villa. He told me of those days in
1890 and 1891 when the bloody war
with the Sioux Indians was fought
in the Dakotas. He told me of
those days when, a first lieutenant
of the Tenth Cavalry-the famous
colored cavalry, part of which Jack
Pershing led up San Juan Hill-Jack
Pershing organized command of
Sioux scouts and rounded up the
Cree Indians, a feat which won
