Use Apples To
Replace Vegetables

Apples may be used occasionally in
place of green vegetables served
with meat, food specialists of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture suggest. Many of the usual
spring vegetables are late and scarce
because of the spring freeze in the
Southern States. While waiting for

There are plenty of apples of good
quality in storage now to supply
everybody for the rest of the season,
according to Wells A. Sherman, of

les. His information is supplement

"In the light and power business,
the subject of farm eleetrification is
at the very foremost of Importance"
said Floyd L Carlisle, chairman of
the Board of the Niagara Hudson
Power Corporation, recently.
He pointed out that the electric
power industry is based upon the
soundest of economics and that thru
the recent business depression it has
demonstrated more than any other in
dustry the stability of its earning
power BY reason of this stability, it
is able to command capital for ex-
pansion, of which it needs approx
mately $8o0,000,0O0 year.
In New York state, 36 per cent OF
the farms are connected with electric
lines, or three and one-half times the
percentage of electrified farms in the
United States as whole.
an our system" MFR. Carlisle said
"the average farm customer is nov
using 80 per cent more electricity thar
he used in 1929.
"The greatest benefit that our in
dustry can give to agriculture is t.
furnish it consistently with more elec
tricity at fair and reasonable prices
and | believe, descending prices"
| As time goes on, more and mor'
farms, in all states, will be connected

In view of the fact that number of
newspapers have edtorially question
ed the wisdom Of continuing the
George Washington Bicentennial Cele
bration until Thanksgiving Day, it is
interesting to recall an important ref
erence to this matter recently made by
Honorable Sol Bloom, associate direc-
tor of the United States George Wash
ington Bicentennial Commission.
It is assumed by some Of these writ
ers that the presidential campaign,
with its raucous outpourings of prop
uganda and the "whirling blizzard of
manifestoes, challenges, defiances and
appeals" will blanket the celebration
itself
Upon this point Congressman Bloom
said:
i at must be remembered that the
! George Washington Bicentennial Cele-
bration is the greatest undertaking Of
its kind in history. 1t is impossible
for the average person to conceive the
far-reaching nature of this activity
and the tremendous popular response
which has been given to it. Instead
of political campaign blanketing the
celebration, ] have an idea that the
celebration will more nearly blanket
the campaign itself, because of this
tremendous response among the peo-
pie and because of the magnificent
scale of the celebration, which could
net possibly have been encompassed
within the space of a few months, OF
even six months.
"The opening of the celebration on
Feb. 22 last, was indeed marvellous
, demonstration, but it was only the be-
: ginning. While thousands upon thou
sands of cities, towns and communi-
/ ties observed the opening day of this
great celebration period, in practical
Ily all cases those were merely the in
i, itial activities.
To-day throughout the nation there
are more local celebrations being held

: mentioned. This commission is receiv.

nearly 100000 such committees al
