FARMERS ADOPTING

Local Dealer Claims Marked
Difference Shown in
Farm Machinery.

r. E. Hulett, Of the st. Joe Elec-
trio Co, local Delco light dealer. has
just returned from a convention OF
the dealers in his district, held al
Chicago.
Mr.. Hulett represents the DelcC
Light company OF Dayton, o., in the
sale of electric plants for farms
country stores, churches, schools
and the like. He advises that these
conventions are held very frequently
by the dealers in this and other dis
tricts. for the exchange Of thoughts
and ideas relative to the matter
which affects their common interest
that of furnishing electricity for
places that are out Of touch with
some central source.
There are several reasons, says
Mr.. Hulett, why many are adopting
electricity for lighting and other
uses, where they once used antiquat.
ed methods, such as kerosene light
ing and gas lighting. One reason Of
fered is that the educational work
that has been done by farm
papers anw other publication
has led people to realize the super
iority Of electric lighting for safety
convenience and ease Of operation
It has also led them to appreciate
the labor saving features OF electric
power. This, says. Mr.. Hulett, Il

Last year, &c fields OF wheat and
rye. representing 1864 bushels of
seed; six fields OF oats, representing

Authority on Mouth Hygiene

function for the public schools and a new
profession for women are all involved IN
the story DR.. Alfred C. Zones will have

hall Monday evening, May 10.
Five years ago DR.. Zones, an authority

for keeping the children of the Bridge.
port Comm public schools in good
health by taking care of their teeth. He
educated a corps Of women for dental
hygiene work. DR.. Zones believes that
the mouth of the average boy is a stand
ing invitation to cOntagion. He has
found also that less than 10 per cent of
the country's population uses a tooth
brush.
In bringing DR.. Zones to Indianapolis,
the local dental society and the Indiana
Dental Association hope to arouse a
strong sentiment in favor Of dental in
spection in the public schools. The com
ing meeting is really the opening of a
campaign for cleaner teeth and better
health. The indianapolis school board
is taking an active interest in the meet
ing. Hygienic enthusiasts are already
planning a dental inspection measure to
be presented to the next session of the
Legislature.
