Government to Aid

WASHINGTON. juno 14.-Seeking TO
improve the service of retail meat dealers
to consumers. the Department Of Agricul-
ture has devised a plan which will make
available to retail meat dealers daily in-
formation concerning livestock and meat
supplies and prices.
The department has trained market re-
porters ut leading livestock markets md
consuming Centers IN the East and Mid
die West. These offices are connected
with each other by a system Of telegraph
wires which enables tbem to know by
noon each day the condition Of the ma
tionaI livestock and meat industry.
II Is proposed 10 make this data avail
able to retail meat dealers, which, Depart
ment OF Agriculture officials assert, win
reflect better service to consumers.
a uniform system OF classifying and
grading livestock also has been worked
out by the department. with n view 10
eliminating the confusion arising from
The Numerous classlfications. Under this
plan all meat is graded strictly On It's
merits regardless of it's origin.

not TO accept statements regarding the
value sf alrmixing or wind blowing de-
vices for protection against frosts or low

Recent tests made by thu department
proved some Of these devices to be utterly
worthless in so far as raising the tenn

One device, consisting Of an airplane
propeller mounted horizontally on a
twenty five foot tower, was thoroughly
tested In an orchard in southern Cali

air heated at the base through the funnel
over the tops of trees also received a
trial and was found TO be Of even less

BY that time the only remedy is an
entirely new coat Of paint and varntsh.
not merely by dabbing the new paint
on the old, but by scraping off every
thing down to the body before the new
covering is put on.
Which entails quite an expense. And
a long wait while the car Is laid up.
An easy way to Obviate this Is to cor
rect the wrong at the start. When the
luster shows signs Of dulling.
Then a new coat Of finishing varnish
Is all that would be needed to make the
car look like new.
II cracks begin to develop in the outer
coat they should be caught Immediately,
II only in the varnish the cracks do lit
tie harm and little sandpapering, with
new coat Of varnish, would correct that.

NEW YORK, June 14-Is 1t possible

consumption capacity whose very size
should guarantee the efficacy OF the
Quantity production" theory Of economy,
possesses the most antique method in
America Of Of producing common nlu-
minatinE Gas7
This is the charge made By the city
parliament OF community councils, in
asking Governor Miller to fire the chair
man and the other four members Of the
public service commission"
The irate consumers declare that IN
spite Of the fact that gas is manufactured
on q larger scale, materials are 7ur-
chased In larger quantities and all other
conditions are at least equal to those
OF other cities, the price Of gas In New
York is far in excess Of that charged
in most other municipalities IN the
United States-in some cases being al
most twice as much.
The community council members allege
that the basic discrepancy in the New
York process Is the employment Of the
22-candle power unit, which, they aver,
was adopted primarily for the purpose
of furnishing gas for lighting purposes.
With the advent OF electricity. they ar
que. and the Development Of the gas
mantle In such pldces where gas Is still
used for lighting, the use OF gas for
heating and cooking purposes has be-
come paramount. Because OF this they
urge the adoption of the British thermal
unit-the basis employed in thirty Eve
States OF the Union.
Statistlcians have figured out that not
more than 10. per cent Of the gas con-
Sumed In this city is for Illuminating
purposes.

strongly at partiality by the commits
sion members to the interests of large
oil concerns, from whom basic supplies
are purchased by the gas companies.

Lack Of luster, cracks, rust spots may

the authority. He has only two re-
