City to Honor Jonny Lind
A full-length statue of Jenny Lind is
Boon to be erected by the Jenny Lind
association In Battery park, near the
Aquarium, formerly Castle Garden,
acene of the first American appearance
of the famous Swedish singer. The
monument, according to present plans
of the association, will be dedicated
on October 6. 1925. which date will be
the one hundred and fifth birthday of
the singer, and will fall less than a
month after the seventy-fifth anniver-
sary of her first appearance In Amer-
ica, on September 11. 1880.
Jenny Lind Is the second woman to
be honored by a public statue in the
city of New York, and the sixth musi-
cian to be thus commemorated in the
^American metropolis. The only other
public monument to a woman, except-
ing the busts In the Hall of Fame, Is
the equestrian statue of Joan of Arc
on Riverside drive. The other musi-
cfans to whom statues have been erect-
ed In the city are Beethoven, who la
honored by two pedestaled busts—one
on the Mall tn Central park and the
other tn Prospect park tn Brooklyn;
Moaart. von Weber and Grieg, each
with a bust tn the flower garden of
Prospect park, and Verdi, with a heroic
monument tn a square of upper Broad-
way-

Natural gas not only keeps down the cost
of cooking and heating—it also holds down
the cost of cleanliness. Striking examples of
the value of this to the housekeeper are
found in the dingy appearance of the outside
of coal heated dwellings in cities where gas
is not available.
One writer in one of the publications de-
voted to household affairs estimates that the
use of natural gas saves one-third the paint-
ing bill. If it is remembered that the soot
and grime are in the air, and despite the best
efforts find their way into the house as well
as defile the exterior, the saving will be seen
to be much greater.
Wall paper cannot well be cleaned of soft
me, nor can rugs and draperies be
their freshness where other fuel is

SWAT THE GRASSHOPPER
IS SLOGAN FOR TEXAS
College Station, Texas, May 21.—
Swat the grasshopper with poison
bran mixture by broadcasting it in
the fields among the young cotton.
That is the most valuable advice
that the A. & M. College can give
at this moment to the cotton farmer
of Texas. Don’t forget the ingredi-
ents for the poison:
Wheat bran 25 lb., white arsenic
1 lb., 6 oranges or lemons or 3-4
ounces of banana oil or amyl acetate,
2 quarts low grade cane or sorgum
molasses and 2 gallons water.
It is best to put it out about sun-
rise as the hoppers feed in the morn-
ing. In some places it is being .ad-
cised to substitute half sawdust
for half the amount of bran but
the A. & M. entomologists do not
advise .this hi case where the bran
is available.
Value meant what you get for the price you pay!
With the Chevrolet you get chaaaia design typical
of the highest priced cars; an improved dry disc
clutch providing astonishing ease of gear shifting;
a rear axle construction of the finest type with one-
piece pressed steel housing; durable Duco finish in
beautiful colors; long semi-elliptic springs providing
wonderful roadability and comfort in riding.
This combination of quality, comfort, utility and
economy provides the greatest automobile value

Probably natural gas saving can well be
estimated in the following oraer:
First—-JThe saving in fuel cost—about half.
Second—The enormous saving in time.
Third—The great saving in cleanliness.
Those communities we serve in Texas are

enjoy. ’
