improvements.

The home lighting department of
the indianapolis Power and Light
Company, % Monument circle, is
offering a free and unique service
to the housewives of the city.
The company has corps of spec
tally trained girls, who, through the
use of a sight meter, an ingenious
device for measuring the number of
light units in any given bulb, are
showing how home lighting can be
improved.
Already these girls have entered
a number of homes and have shown
that through the Encouragement of
bulbs, lamps and reading lights,
there will result a direct aid to
sight, and eyestrain, in practically
every case, will be less severe.
They also demonstrate the hidden
tricks of the trade showing that
on the house voltage of 100 watts, a
lis watt bulb will burn brighter
than one of 100 watts, while one of
125 watts will not burn as bright,
but will last longer.
Included in the demonstration
are two bulbs, both of precisely the
same material, but one assembled
by good workmanship, and the other
by poor, and perhaps selling at a
lower price. 1t is easily seen that

OFFERS AID IN
GARDEN WORK
Tulip Bulbs and Lilies Avail
able Now for Fall
Setting.

Fair weather has favored the
garden lovers and this has been a
boon for those replenishing lawns
for spring" states Jerome Bash. Of
Bash's Seed Store, 141 North Della
ware street.
Tulip bulbs reign supreme as the
spring flower, and our sales have
been the highest in years"
1t is not wise to wait too long as
stocks are rapidly being depleted,
and in all probability bad weather
will soon be encountered
Hardy lilies are continuing to in
crease in popularity as they add a
great deal of beauty to the garden.
Bash's has in stock several leading
varieties including, Regal, Cana
dense, Superbum and Madonna.
Two popular varieties Of the
japanese hardy lily, are the Auratum
and the Rubrum, both of which will
be available after Nov. Lilies need
we'll drained soil and will prove sat-
isfactory in shady location.
Otncr BUILDS Available
Other fall bulbs for spring bloom
ing are the crocuS, hyacinth, daffo-
dill, anemone and grape hyacinth.
BaSh'S has number of varieties
that bloom exceptionally early in
the spring, and are especially rec
commended for rock gardens. These
include snowdrops, aconite, fritiaria,
chinodoxia, crocus specie, and the
ever-popular Squills. Varieties of
the parrott-type tulip and double
early tulip are also popular for rock
gardens.
Besides the planting of fall bulbs,
many gardeners like to set hardy
flower plants.
Perennials Offered
Bash's stocks many popular vari-
cites of perennials and practically
any variety desired may be obtained

to transplant shrubbery, but within
the next week or ten days weather
conditions should be suitable for
this type of yard Identification.
1t is time to set evergreenS and
BaSh's has on display many fine
types at attractive prices.
No one should overlook the fact
that fall is the best time for lawn
attention. 1t is the best time to SOW
grass seed. The lawn will respond
to liberal application of BaSh's raw
bone meal, considered by many the
best type of fertilizer.
Mr.. Bash, senior, or his sons will
be glad to supply information in re-
gard to the care of the lawn, or

PREDICTS PASSING
Of PRIVATE BANKS
United Business Service De.
cIares Government viii
Take Control.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


BOSTON, September 22.-Banking
in this country, says the United Busi-
ness Service in its current report, has
entered a period of fundamental
change in which the function Of
granting credit will pass from the
hands of private banks and bankers
to governmental control.
The Government has already gone
into the banking business in big
way. The outstanding agricultural
credit extensions of the Government
agencies headed by the Federal Land
Banks now amount in all to nearly
2.9 billions, the R. F. c. loans out
standing to about 2.5 billions.
To these must be added the Home
Loan Bank advances. less repayments,
of Sc millions, and the Government
20 per cent guarantee Of home mod
erniZation loans.
Government domination of bank
ing is expected to be extended. Plans
for a central bank of issue, consolida-
ton Of the Federal Reserve Banks,
and unifcation of all banking under
Federal control are now being dis
cuSsed.
The dangers of governmental di-
rection of banking lie in the granting
of loans on a political, rather than
a business basis, and in lax manage
ment where Government bears the risk.
These dangers will have to be faced"
