Food purveyors are frequently con-
fronted with the business fact that total
consumption of their products in a
country like the United States is sus-
ceptible only Of a limited degree OF
stimulation, whereas curtailment of con-
sumption of given product can al
ways become sharp. Experience of
California peach packers during the last
crop year and ensuing marketing season,
as it was brought out before the con-
vention of the National Gamers Asso-
citation recently, is case in point.
1t seems that the 1929 crop of Cali
fornia canning peaches was cut in half,
making the pack run to 100000 cases,
against perhaps $4,000, 900 cases in a
normal year. This had the effect of
running up average retail prices for the
canned product about 20 per cent.
With the increase, the movement of
canned peaches into consumption
slowed down almost to a stop. It may
pick up, but for some weeks this Winter
the American people seemed entirely
willing to dispense with the use of what
had beer a standard food product.
Episodes of this type rather tend to keep
executives of the food industries mind
full of the danger of excessive expansion
of operations. During 1929 about eight
billion cans of food products were put
up in the United States, which about
me- the consumptive demand, and there
Is definite sign that the canning in
dustry considers that similar produc-
ton in 1880 will meet requirements.
That seems to be the best judgment ex-
fact that while human beings may de-
biles and houses to satisfy desires, their
stomach requirements remain stable.
Cigarette smoking habits among the
| feminine portion of American popula-
ton, widely spread as they now are. are
still on the increase. This is the con-
clusion Treasury officials read into pro-
sale paragraphs of monthly tax collec-
tons entering into Government ac-
counting. Returns now show that the
Government in January collected $751;
Asa 900 in internal revenue, against $48,-
727 900 received from the same source
in the same month last year, and it is
pretty we'll understood that tobacco
makes up nearly all the internal reve-
nue. tax.

A large part OF the first half OF
the major league baseball season
has been spent In strenuous efforts
on the part OF managers TO build
UP their teams FOR the latter part
OF the year and the success OF
their efforts Is quite evident in the
current standing Of the clubs.
Washington'S big deals with the
st. Louis Browns and Chicago White
Sox turned out TO be an important
factor IN making the American
league campaign O duel between the
Senators and Philadelphia Athletics.
Acquisition OF Heinie Manush gave
them some batting punch where it
was needed while Al Crowder has
turned out to be an effective pitcher
IN Washington. Art Shires and
Dave Harris, formerly Of Chicago,
also have helped improve the Sena-
tors batting average.
The result Is that the Senators
and the Athletics today are tied for
the league lead although the dead
lock may not last long In the quick
shifts OF the standing brought about
by the fact that Philadelphia has
played more games. II was Shires
who brought about the tie, coming
through with a pinch single with
the bases full in the tenth inning
Sunday TO beat the New York Yam
KEGS, 3 TO ?. Washington now has
won Is out OF l6 games. showing the
Yanks 5 1-2 games into third place
by sweeping the series.
The Athletics kept their place In
the sun by winning the third close
decision in a row from the Boston
Red Sox, 4 TO 8. George EarnshaW
scored his eleventh victory of the
year. gaining a slight edge over Dan
MacFayden.

second division during their recent

BOLTS COAxED
FROM BLUE TO
AID EXPERIMENT
Lightning Damage viii Be
Learned in Tests by
Scientists.
Tinted Pres

BIZ United Press
SCHENECTADY, N. Y, June 80.
While thousands of tourists dodge
thunder storms this summer, two
parties Of outing enthusiasts in the
middle west will be watching and
waiting for them.
In fact when nature does not pro-
vide lightning, they will make bolts
themselves and dart them at objects
to study their effects.
One of these groups already is
ION location" in Michigan at spot
where they believe lightning is most
likely to strike. They will cover a
flfty-mile stretch CT high voltage
feed wire.
Another party soon will be out on
a similar mission between Phllo
and Canton, Ohio, on another feed
wire where lightning seems to have
an affinity for playing.
The groups have been sent out
from the lightning research depart
ment of General Electric Company,
Pittsfeld, Mass. E. j. Wade, who
worked with DR.. w. D. Coolidge,
"the modern Thor" who first Gre
ated artificial lightning, heads the
Michigan group, and H. L. Rorden,
a student in the high voltage lab
oratory, is in temporary charge OF
the Ohio party.
Each of the parties is equipped
with an impulse generator which
will produce from 100000 to 1900
600 volts in one flash of lightning.
All winter these bolts were darted at
miniature villages and their actions
recorded on a delicate instrument
with the high sounding name OF
cathode ray oscillograph.
Reason for these experiments, it is
explained, is to study the relative
damage by lightning to property
protected by lightning arresters, and
property which is not, and also to
develop the old-fashioned lightning
rod into a sure protection, if posi-
BILE. from the bolts from the skies.
