When that is done no doubt there will be mutual congratuâ€" lations among the attorneys, the police, and the members of varâ€" ious societies organized "for the p};zvention' of erime."

This gives rise to speculation as to whether the farmer is econtent to sacrifice greater comfort and conâ€" venience made possible by ele ity and gas in favor of rapid communiâ€" cation and transportation that the telephone and auto make possible. Price is Factor ‘ â€"The big drawhack to more C use of electricity on farms in the state up to the present has been the high prices made necssary for its deâ€" livery into distant sections, and this has served to discourage many |from use of it, states the foundation. Inâ€" dependent plants for the individual farms have proven popular in some localities, and experiments now being conducted on farms in several € is expected to throw new light on this problem and electrical engineers predict as great a revolution in the use of electricity in the country in the coming ‘decade as was n in the past decade in the cities. x Mostly fer Lighting . | . While electricity on the farm is used. mostly for lighting purposes, the farmer with this power his command has been able to be relievâ€" ed of many of the tasks arount the home place, according to the foundaâ€" ticn. Electricity does not or;llz pump water for the home, drive the washâ€" ing machine, heat the electric iron, run the vacuum cleaner,â€"charge the radio. and automobile batteries, but it has <brought _efficiency with it by lighting the yard, stables, and lofts, drive the milking machine, the cream separator, the churn, the grindstone and emery wheel &nd the general utilâ€" ity motor.s Electricity has also been used to light poultry houses as a stimulant to egg production, to operâ€" ate incubator ventilation and controls and occasionally for grinding feed, sawing wood, as well as hcisting hay and grain. k2 f f The New York City Board of Transâ€" portation, created. by Mayor Hylan to get the facts about bus operation, has just reported: : : ;=@=asl!0~.00". * o tomgl SECE Survey of State Shows that No ~More than that are Equipâ€" ped for Use of Gas Either; Figures || â€" Qne hundred and nine thousand sixâ€" téen more dairy cows will be needed in Hlinois by 1930, according to the Blue Valley Creamery Institute. This number will be required to take care of the normal needs of the state‘s growing population unless Illinois farmers adopt the doubleâ€" barrelled policy. of breeding ‘only from pureâ€" bred sires and then feeding their progeny balanced ratlons,. < . > Should Illinois®: farmers adopt the advanced practices outlined above, onâ€" ly abouthalf: of the 109,016 cows would be Bjxeeded to supply the state‘s dairy products needs five years from now, says the Institate, basing its conclusions on figures from hnvm of cow test: association reports. Not only would the. smaller number . of quality cows make twice as much clear profit per cow above fedd costs, but their owners would still bhave a tenâ€"dollar gold piece per cow over for good measure. txel ‘ More than Hundred Thousand is Increase Required, Accordâ€". . ing to Report ILLINOIS NEEDS THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK, IN MORE DAIRY COWS IN ILLINOIS Inâ€" idual some ing es On# of the best horse ‘barns of any that can be found on agriâ€" cultural college farm in this | counâ€" try is among the late additions to the group. of new farmâ€" ings at the College of Agriculture, Univerâ€" sity of TMinois.
