HONEY HoNEYl \

It has come to my attention that
some dealers are shipping in light
weight comb honey. This is all right
IL 1t In sold for a reasonable price.
Dealers N asking $50 per pound for
my fancy comb which 1 guarantee to
weight not LESS than 10 ozs. per
section n many sections weigh as
much as is ozs- n over Not less
than 12h OF. sections is No. i II
all capped and fastened to four sides
Of section No. 1 ia really worth the
price asked. but 10 to IL OF. sections
are dear at 25c. for they are more
or less broken and ieaky. 1 offered
one dealer. and will offer them nil
this light and broken honey for 81
pei case less than they have paid
so far. When o buy a comb of my
honey ask your dealer to weigh It
and see to 1t that you get your mon
ny's worth. VIM. MosTELLER.

BIOLOGISTS OF 3
STATES TO CONFER
Ohio and Illinois Officials to
Meet DIR. Logan Here.

The American Association Of Petroleum
Biologists cooperating with biologists OF
various States which offer promise of oil
deposits. is preparing to make survey
Of the United States in an effort to locate
new fields or to discover process where
oil in considerable quantity may be OBJ
tanned from distillation of shale.
To this end a series of meetings Is
being held in various States, Indiana is
cooperating in the movement and tomor-
row, F. W. De Wolf, State geologist Of
Illinois, and Professor Brownocker, State
geoIogist of Ohio, will hold conference
in the office of DIR. ". n. Logan, geolo-
gist under the State department of CON
servation. DR.. Logan has agreed to head
the survey In Indiana. and the present
plan is for biologists of Ohio, Illinois
and Indiana to cooperate in the submits
sion of data to the United States Geo
logical Survey.
The division Of geology Of the Indiana
conservation department has expert
mented with shales for the production of
oil, and an experimental plant located at
New Albany is dlstilling at the rate OF
thirty to fifty-f gallons of oil per ton
of shale
DR. Logan's latest survey Of the Hoosier
shale districts shows we possess almost an
illimitable supply Of deposits in seven
counties. This is in addition to an
abundance Of shale in thirteen counties
where coal is mined. Because the indus
trial world is clamoring for more oil,
practically every State in the Union where
this natural resource il found and where
potential shale fields exists, is encourag-
ing this work.

and through them we serve shout 10000
people. Thew have rinht to know what
the situation is. We dislike to ask for
increased rates, but we are forced to
do so. If we I'm through another year
at the present rates, we will be about
$140,0 short of paying bare operating
expenses Operating costs are a little
lower than they were when at the peak,
during the war, but they are not enough
lower to enable US to continue business
at the present rates.
This company will need S2,071, eco in
additional revenue for the fiscal year to
end March 81, 1922, in order to pay the
interest on our debts and pay Z per
cent dividend on the $15,000,000 in stock.
This is to say nothing of the surplus
we should be permitted in order to ex-
tend and improve service. We have to
borrow money to put up poles ana
wires, and we have to pay interest on
the loans. The investors have a right
to expect per cent, at least, on their
stock In the company. This is only fair.
Any borrower Of money knows he is
lucky to get funds even at per
cent"
Mr.. wampler said he was unable
to say now in which cities increases Will
be asked, but that he felt sure, with
the facts in mind. the public would be
willing to pay rates that will let the
company maintain service.
There is no fair reason why we should
be required to operate at loss" he de-
clared.
purely from the standpoint of the
public's interest, the danger is not that
rates are too high. The real danger Is
rates that are too low. The public

INDIANA BELL
COMPANY TO ASK
BOOST IN RATES
Telephone Manager Says More
Revenue Needed to Main
tain Service.

Increased telephone rates throughout
the State will be asked by the Indiana
Bell Telephone Company, in the near
future, it was learned today.
1.-THE reason why we have to ask for
higher rates In several Of the cities in
which we operate is simply that we are
running behind every day. We cannot
keep up our system or our service I'M
less our customers pay a fair price for
their telephones" said Frank Wampler,
vice president and general manager of
the telephone company, when asked
whether petitions similar to the plea for
higher rates in Muncie would be fled
with the public service commission affect
ing other cities.
Il am glad to answer the question,
but sorry to say that our petitions are
unavoidable" Wampler said. I'VE have,
roughly, 10000 subscribers in Indiana.

Securities Dealers
Cite Improvement

Bond and securities dealers and In
vestment brokers Of the city stated to-
day that they are Of the opinion that
local financial conditions are much bet
ter than they were two weeks ago and
that they are further of the opinion that
conditions will continue to get better.
One of the most promising things about
the local situat ton, they say, is the class
Of securities in which the people are
placing their money.
Both small and large investors nave
turned from the speculative stocks and
bonds to municipal bonds add other con-
servative investments. This, securities
dealers state, is placing money at the
disposal of the legitimate enterprises and
crushing the speculative and mushroom
enterprises that sooner or later will have
to perish.

first among those who are not. And that
Just about means everybody.
"a man may be one of your best Gus
toners, he may do a profitable checking
business, buy bonds, rent a safe deposit
box, leave his rental property in your
hands, patronize your collection, real es-
tate, foreign exchange and other de-
partments, but he is not 100 per cent
customer unless his wife and all his chill
dren have savings accounts. And through
him, or some other way, we want TO
get their accounts"
Miss Busbee advocated going after new
business. of course, but said that many
banks are overlooking the opportunity to
do a greater business with present Gus
toners. She held that the lack OF In
tensive methods on the part of Legitimate
financial institutions was one of the rea-
sons for the success Of blue sky pro-
motors. People need to be educated as
to investments of the safe kind, she said

law prevents a utility from making a
'proft' and only permits them to earn
such a retu n on the capital invested as
will attract additional capital into the
business In other words, profteertng
is absolutely prohibited by law.
IF at any time the rates should be
too high the service would not suffer
and tie regulatory body would readjust
them, but if the rates are too low the
public suffers at the expense of the serv-
ice and there is no remedy that can COM
pensate for the injustice and loss during
such a period"
