SUMMIT TRUST COMPANY Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ESTABLISHED 1891 Your living room, the center of so many family activities, deserves carefully planned lighting, declares Mrs. Doris Anderson, extension home management speialist, Rutgers University. Proper lighting must be arranged for television, for a study desk, the easy chair where father reads his newspaper, the rocker where mother does the mending— in fact, wherever the family epende evenings and entertains friends. The right lighting improves the appearance of the room and gives greater comfort with less eye strain. * Are you getting full benefit from your present living room lighting?, asks Mrs. Anderts Often you can get more light where needed simply by rearranging grouping of lights and furniture. Often the amount of light can be tripled by moving a lamp, or so nearer the furniture. Shades lined with white or off white gove two or three times as much light as a dark-lined shade. A white paper lining, a coat of white paint or even white shoe polish on the inside of a shade Increases the amount of light given by a dark shade. A shade with wide flaring sides gives off more light than a narrow shade with straight sides. The gize of the bulb counts considerably in arranging for proper light. Use as high wittage as is recommended for your lamp. The popular pin-to-wall type of lamp gives good light if equip-ped with proper bowls and ehades. Abolite globe or a diffusing bowl and shade spreads' the light over a hard-to-light areaeuch as the end of a davenport. Use at least a 100-watt bulb in this fixture, hanging it low enough on the wall so that light shines on a book or sewing instead of the person's head. Place wall lamps so the bottom of the ehade is not more than 55 inches from the floor, r if the chair or davenport is low, you may want the lights as low as 48 inches from the floor. Portable table lamps have two usea; decoration and light. If for light the bottom of the lamp shad' should be about 40 inches from the floor. Sometimes this means raising the baee f the lamp. If there is a handy man in the house, the "riser" can be made of a wooden block finished to hormonize with the lamp furnishings. A shade 14" to lfi" across the lower edge for a small end table lamp, or 16" or 19" for a, large table lamp, will throw out the light instead of hugging it to the lamp itself. You might like one of the new bulbs called "bolite" bulbs, which give a soft light without a diffusing bowl. With those lights you will need a new "harp"—the fitandard on which Member Federal Reserve) System The Millburn & Short Rills ITEM the shade rests. These new bulb* give generous amounts of light downward plus indirect light" reflected to the walls and ceiling. Not all light has to be obtained from portable fixtures. Ceiling lights end wall fixtures are important for good general distribution of light throughout the room, even though they are not suitable for close worgk. Open top shades on lamps help spread light. Shade all bare bare lamp bulbs, including fluerescent, the full length of the* tube. Unshaded bulbs can produce harmful glare. You may be interested in architectural lighting—the type featuring receseed direct lights, window Valence or cornice lighting. No general direction can be given for r' the- location, treatment and installation of this type of illumination, as it is controlled by the room itself and the furniture in it Good lighting does not come wrapped up in a neat ready-touse package. It is a result of studying your own living room and improving or changing light where needed. It is worth study and some expense to add the magic touch of good lighting to your living room. • Helium at ordinary temperatures is a colorless, odorless tasteless, and pratically weightless gas.

The costs for operating a bus are way np — just like all other costs have gone up during the last ten years. But the Public Service bus fare is . only a nickel—the same fare we charged in 1940! You know how prices have skyrocketed—for food ... for clothing for fuel—since 1940. The costs of operating a bus have risen, too —for bus parts ... for oil and tires ... for everything that goes into a bus ride. But the Public Service bus fare is only 5 cents! It costs more to give you adequate and comfortable transportation. For example, wages have been on a steady increase. Since July 1, 1948, they have risen by about $4,750,000 on an annual basis —and over $13,500,000 on an annual basis since 1940. It just isn't possible to charge a nickel fare-and still pay our bills! Public Service filed a petition on July 12, 1950, with the Board of Public Utility Commissioners for relief from the five cent fare until such time as permanent rates shall have been established by the Board. The company feels that you can readily understand that efficient and adequate transportation service is in jeopardy when we face the loss of nearly $4,000,000 a year. A-351-S0
[AUSUST24, 19501 Garden Topics Essex County Extension Service . It is well to start ridding the lswn cf crab grass prior to September • seeding and fesding. At this season manj? home owners aJre confronted with erabgrass trouble emd ar^ perplexed as to what measures to take to combat it. If the 'P C£7t ^ allowed to go to s^ed, the plant population keeps mounting ry-ear after year. Growing conditions have been favorable - this year for er&bgrass with more rainfall than in 1949 arid many other summer months. In many lawns this weed has taken over with little opposition from the permanent grasses. Crabgraas yrowtlr after going to seed slows down in growth and turns brown. Frost finishes it off. Permanent grasses tak$ on new energy starting- in. mid-September , as the nights "ekd weather bttcome a little, cooler. Spring and Fall lawn repairing is the best insurance against heavy infestatieu of crabirrass. On areas not too badly damaged by crab&rass, the Jawn may . be raked with a crabgrass rake first, before moving to lift the sprawling plants up so they will be cut off with the mower.

In some cases th-s soil -may be L unsuited for growth of permanent 'k gTasaes in which case it is advisable to turn under the present growth, and start anew with an improved szed bed. Sufficient amounts of lime, fertilizer and organic matter are needed for the soil improvement. Such work ought to be started now BO that planting the grass seed can be done in early September.

At this time one should examine them for insects. Before it is timeto bring the plants indoora in early September for' the winter the pots should be cleaned and soil -gotten ready for transplanting. Some house plants can be kept,on the dry side during their resting period but ferns and some of the foliage plants require more moisture. New house plants can be started this month from many of the old ones set outdoors in early summer. Plants like Begonia, which have -gone through one • year of blooming become straggly and spindly. To brighten tke dull winter days indoors, make cuttings of the old house plants during August so they become rooted before frost arrives. Many gardeners have the urge to propagate plants from cuttings to replace the old held-oyer plants. Cuttings from many of "the popular type house plants can now be rooted in sand, water, vermiculite or some other type of rooting media. If done outdoors the cutting's will need protection against heavy rains and hot sun by placing them in a cold frame with lath slats, cheesecloth or under glass jars in a eemi-ahady place. To successfully root cuttings in summer, one should prevent them, from drying -out too much as well as -avoid getting the rooting media too wet. For cuttings to root quickly moisture and a moderate amouint of heat are necessary. Too high a temperature is to be avoided. If cuttings ere started in a cold frame adequate ventilation must be given on hot days. If the rooting media used for cuttings is sand, "be sure it 16 free from organic matter. The sand should first be compacted firmly and well watered before setting the cuttings after which the media should be kept moist but not wet. After roots reach one inch length the rooted cutting may be transferred to soil in small pots. To obtain a bushy and well shaped plant, some pinching beck will be necessary to encourage aide branching. Most gardeners lack the facilities and petience necessary for" rooting cuttings of house plants and prefer to get new plaaita from their florist. * Union Girls Defeat Millburn Last week en All Star team from the Union Recreation Department Softball leagues defeated the Millburn Recreation Department girls in a Softball game at the high school stadium.
