GAS PRICE ADVANCES
 TO NEW HIGH MARK

Wholesale prices of gasoline were advanced here today to 30 cents per gallon, the highest mark ever reached since the gasoline went on the mark ct. Dealers obtain a two-cent per gallon discount from the wholesale price. As they have been selling at three cents gallon profit, this will probably mean retail price of 31 cents per gallon. The advance, which is the second within two weeks, is said to be due to increased prices of crude oil.

Famous Norwegian Actress
 Coming

Madame Borgny Hammer, a dis tinguished Norwegian actress, former ly connected with the Bergen anC Christlania National Theatres. vii make her appearance in Conway March 1G and Is at the high schoo auditorium, in English productions ot Henrik Isben's Hedda Gabler and A Dolls House.
 Madame Hammer is particularly noted for her great dramatic power her keen intelligence, and her com polling personality So great art these assets that foreign critics have compared her acting with that of Bernhardt and the famous Italian ac tress, Eleanora Duse, while the Amer ican critics have unhesitatingly rank ed her work with the best work of Mrs. Fiske and Nazmova.
 Madame Hammer has just com. pleted a very successful tour, and she will appear in one of the New York theatres early in the fall. Prior tc this opening, and beginning February 16, she is making another tour, play ing almost exclusively under the aus pices of the large schools and colleges of the country It is for this reason that the people of Conway will hay, the very rare opportunity of seeing this distinguished actress and her tal ented company in two of the plays o the greatest dramatist of modcr

tric motor comes into competition with animal power and other sources of me- chanical power. Ensilage cutters, corn shelters, corn grinder, root cutter, oat crushers, horse groomers and hay hoists, are examples of machines that are supplanting man power in doing heavy work. In one instance the cost of rigging a hay hoist was $105; ten horsepower motor, $163; fixed charges (interest and depreciation) at 16 per cent, $42.90 per year. A load of 2,450 pounds of hay was hoisted and placed in 13 minutes, at cost of 2@ cents fer power G0 cents per kwh.), and 10 cents for labor in addi- ton to fixed charges or overhead ex- penses. In another instance the load is reported to have been completely handled in less than five minutes.

BREAD MAKING
 S|MPL|F|ED BY

(The Edison Monthly

CThe Edison Monthly
 A large, clean, airy room
 white-the .appetizing odor of
 freshly baked bread-Iots of
 bright sunlight streaming through
 great highly polished windows.
 Two or three large machines
 standing on the white tiled floor.
 Along one wall rows of white
 lockers, and then, most impor-
 full of Ioaves of bread, golden
 brown and giving forth an odor
 of such rickness as to make one's
 mouth water. Such is the set
 ting for "The Electrical Loaf"
 as exempIified in the chain of
 New York City.
 I've do everything by cleo
 trieity," explains the manager.
 "Even our signs are electrical.
 The dough is kneaded and baked
 electrically and the entire process
 is carried out to completion right
 hero in the store."
 Here at the start is something inter esting: You instinctively recall the many times you have passed other bak- cries and caught fleeting glimpses down dark cellar stairs of men knead- ing great masses of dough with their bare hands. To many. the behind llle- scenes OI d TetdI Dake-SDOp re- mained a matter of conjecture until the new type store used it's ovens as part of the plan to attract trade.
 The bread is compounded and put into the mixer, electrical of course, capable of holding enough to make 200 1oaves. In this machine the dough is kneaded and mixed until it is in exactly the right condition to be turned into covered troughs and al- lowed to stand. From the dough troughs the mixture is packed into regular baking pans, clamped together five in a group to make them easier to handle, and slid into the dough closets to rise.
 we know just how long to leave it to have it reach uniform height be- fore we put it in the oven." In 40 minutes the bread is baked and placed on the racks for sale.
 Guess work and chance, two eIe- ments which enter so materially into the old methods of baking are not factors in the modern electrical bak-- cry. Every loaf is of uniform size, taste and color. And then most inn portant of all, absolute cleanliness prevails throughout the entire process.

ELECTRICITY |S FUR
 USE ON RANCHES.

Electricity for power purposes is nearly always economical. Man power is very expensive; wage of 15 cents per hour for a man is about for electricity of equal power ability. A price of 12 cents per kwh. is there fore only about one-sixteenth as ex- penSiye as man power, which, even after adding for the interest and de- preciation in the machinery will not exceed about one-tenth even one eighth as much as man power.
 The farmer is a large user of ma chinery, and all machinery needs oc casional repairs. He is often far from town where such repairs can be made. The result is that the modern farmer must be equipped to do much of his own repair work.
 Farm Shop Small Tools
 The farm shop should contain sew eral small repair utensils such as grindstone, emery wheel, hack saw, drill press and forge blower, all of belt from a line shaft driven by one motor None of these require more than about one-fourth horsepower each. Wood saws, lathes and planers require some more power and could be operated by individual motors or from a line shaft driven by a large motor than in the former cases Why should not the farmer saw up his cordwood by electricity instead of by hand, into sbove lengths for his own use, and likewise that which he hauls to town for sale?
 Electricity in the Barn and the Field
 Large power using machinery on the farm is to be found in the barn and the field. It is here that the cleo

UP TO DATE FARMER USES ELECTRICITY
 ALL OVER HIS PLACE

Andrew Dixon's farm out at Rock ford, Wright county, Minnesota, is not as big as some farms go, hut it has electric lights and power. Now, while Mir. yixon's place lays no claim to being pretentious, it is just the sort Of farm that a thrifty hard working farmer would have, farmer who hasn't time for a lot of fixin's, but strong conviction that electric light and power are necessities on the modern farm where every bit of work counts.
 The Farmer, a weekly agricultural journal published in Minnesota, printed the following letter written for it by Mir. Dixon:
 With our electric plant we have two motors. One is a one-ha1f horse power; it runs the cream separator and the milking machines. The other is one- sixth of a horsepower; it is attached to a mtor pump which pumps water from the cistern and also runs the washing machine and churn. We also have a sewing machine motor and an electric iron which are a great saving to strength and wood. We use the grindstone. ice cream freezer and everything that is possible. We have light in nearly all the buildings COW barn, horse barn, steer barn, hog barn, granary, corn crib, buggy shed, milk house, pump house, wood shed, two silos, also 19 lights in house and two yard lights. As you see, we have a pretty good sized plant for farm"
 There you have evidence aplenty that "be it ever so humble" there's no place whefe electric. power and light cannot find home to brighten up.
