In this Study, equal distances of paved, gravel and earth roads Were travelled. Fo«ir elements of cost were considered--gasoline, oil, tires and maintenance. "In Mississippi, a typical state, the cost of gasoline in driving ,12,OCO miles over paved roads was $146. or 1.22 cents a mile," Upham said. "Over gravel roads, the gas cost was $168. or 1.4 cents a mile, while over earth, it was $162. or 1.35 cents a mile. Oil consumption was .11 cents a mile over paved roads, .15 cents a mile over gravel and .21 cent? a mile over dirt. Gravel roads took the greatest toll in tirejs with .44 cents a mile, against .27 cents a mile on pavement and .33 cents on earth.

While these" drugs, chloroquin and oxychloroquin, made it relatively easy for the United States army to suppresf the j* disease in the Held, the Germans: relied throughout the war upon the much less effective atabrine to ftght the ravages of malaria among their forces in Russia, Italy and Africa,! Professor Elderfleld said. A third drug which American! chemists developed by improving' upon a German discovery has' recently been found to have greater^ curative powers than any other.' known antimalarial, according to Professor Elderfleld, who said the:' new agent, called pentaquin, has successfully cured more than 90 per cent of the relapsing malaria infections on which it has been tried. Pentaquin not only is more potent than its German predecessor, plas-| mochin, or pamaquin. Professor Elderfleld declared, but it is less toxic. Although plasmochin, when administered in conjunction with> quinine, can permanently cure about 80 per cent of relapsing vivax malaria infections it is excessively^ toxic and is of little use in treating members of non-Caucasian races/ among whom it tends to cause a| form of anemia. Only three cqrses of anemia have been recorded among the more than 200 malaria victimf treated with pentaquin so far.

While fall ift the ideal time to make new lawns, they can be made successfully ih the spring, provided seeding is ddttfe early--just as soon at the soil is fil workable condition. There is a Way to save on seed and still have the lovely lawn ytft desire. The answer is complete plant food. Supplying the full nourishment grass needs for ideal growth, complete plant food encourages greater stooling (the sending out of new shoots). You can ufe less seed and still have a thick, velvety lawn. In the northern states, Kentucky Kuegrass is by far the best grass r lawns. Since bhiegrass makes m relatively slow start, it is best to mix jt with a fast growing gran such as redtop. A mixture of 75 per cent bluegrass and 25 per cent redtop will give a good lawn in a very short time, due to the quick growth of the redtop. The slow growing bluegrass will soon crowd -out the redtop and make a relatively pure stand of bluegrass. In the South, most of the summer lawns are planted with Bermuda grass, which is admirably adapted to withstand the extreme heat of that section. Carpet grass is also Making Peanuts Lighter Blanching is a treatment given to peanuts to give a whiter and more homogenous appearance to products made from them. These products include peanut butter, peanut candies, salted peanuts, bakery products and peanut flour. This whitening is accomplished by removing the skin of peanuts, and may or may not include removing the hearts or germs. BUPTUBED?
