PROTECT YOUNG APPLE TREES
Keep Mice and Rabbits Away by Fly
Screen or CIossIy-Woven GAL
vanized Wire.

If there Is particularly gOOi
young apple tree or two in some part
Of the garden, do not fail to clean the
grass or weeds away from its base
and protect the trunk from mice and
rabbits with fly screen or closely
woven galvanized wire. Thousands of
young apple trees are lost every winter,
In certain sections, from being gnawed
by field mice and rabbits. AS rule,
the mice work just at the surface of
the ground, especially where grass
and rubbish is left around the roots
Of the trees. Rabbits are more likely
to gnaw the bark from the trunk above
the ground, especially while there Is
a deep snow and they are prevented
from getting green food on the ground
For this reason the protectors should
extend at least 2 feet above ground
and 2 inches under ground.

SAM SENDAK ON
BUSINESS CONDITION
East Chicago Man Sees
Steady and Wholesome
Improvement.

East Chicago business men are
looking toward the next few months
with optimism. especially with the
practical adjustment OF industrial
disturbances. and are inclined to
agree with certain business authorl-
ties who are pointing to increased
manufacturing and merchandising as
q sure sign OF steady and wholesome
improvement Many good reasons
are given, and Sam sendak of the
Indiana Electric Service Company,
who has recently returned from a
tour over Europe. offers some inter
esting comments.
The influence of our home folks
affects every branch of business and
society" said Mr.. Sendak, and the
steady increase in the manufacture
and sale of electrical appliances dur
ing the past year is explained by
the best authorities as the result of
the more general use Of home de-
vices and equipment and the tre-
mendous popularity and demands of
the radio. This adoption of the home
appliances means better under
standing OF the housekeepers and
their menfolk of the simplicity and
economy Of such things and such a
tendency would naturally mean bet
ter merchandising in every direction.
There are more Thor electrical wash
ing machines and similar home la
Dor saving devices being sold to
families in East Chicago and vicinity
than ever before. and whenever this
IS being done the merchants in all
lines are feeling the effects of bet
ter living standard

Mr.. Sendak, Ito observe the changes

effected communication with the
American shore either by it's own

unloading liquor cargoes for Amer

would render a vessel liable to ssiz-
