CHOATE ACCLA|MS
VICTORY ON BEER
Illinois Decision UpholdS
U. S. Right to Regulate In
dustry, Says Official.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The first completed court verdict on
the Governments right to control the
liquor industry under codes was de-
scribed today by Joseph H. Choate,
jr., director of the Alcohol Control
Administration, as far-reachin VIC
tory.
He said the Federal court for North
ern Illinois, in ordering the Joseph
Schlitz Brewing Co. to dismantie
costly signs furnished Chicago retail
ers, had served notice that evils which
attended the liquor traffic in pre-pro-
hibition days could be prevented.
'One of the important purposes of
the codes covering the liquor indus
try" Choate explained in formal
statement, "is the protection of each
member of the industry from the
competition caused by rebates and
gratuitous services and equipment
rendered to retail establishments.
1.-THE furnishing of expensive signs
prior to prohibition had been one per-
nicious form of this competition.
"A further evil, likewise attacked by
the same provision of the codes, Is the
control and domination of retail out
lets through such forms of unfair
competition by the distributors of al
coholic beverages, particularly prod
ucts of the brewing industry.
THE decree just rendered serves
notice that such evils can be pre-
vented.
THE result is particularly gratify-
ing, in view of the fact that the code
authority. an agency of the industry
itself, developed the facts and assisted
in bringing the matter to successful
conclusion"

WILL RAISE VEGETABLE
PLANTS BY ELECTRICITY
Kenneth A. Lewis Installs an
Electric Heating Element
in His .Hotbed.

Kenneth A. Lewis, who for a
number of years has raised gar
den plants for sale, recently in
stalled at his home on South
Crawford avenue a, General Elec-
trio soil heating element in a hot
bed five feet by 80 feet in size.
The element consists of a special
lead-covered cable about the size
of a lead pencil and a thermo-
static control which has a. range
of $3.50 to 1000 F.
The cable, laid back and forth
in the bed, seven inches apart
and six inches under the soil sur
ACE, furnishes the heat for the
growing of the plants instead of
the use of manure. Many advan-
tages are gained by this method,
as the temperature is always uni
formly maintained, which assures
a harder plant and a plant
which has fifty per cent more
rootage than those produced by
the old method.
This soil-heating element has
been under research by the Cen
eral Electric company for four or
five years and has proven a great
benefit in hot beds, cold frames
and hot house benches. John Red
mon, an electrician in the employ
of the Hardin Office of the Mon
tana Power Co., assisted Mr.. Lewis
in the installation Of this element.
