Attended by members of the Mill-
ers .-National euerauon represent-
ing five-sixths of the capacity of the
industry, a mass meeting was neiu
in Chicago, April 1st. The follow-
ing resolution was offered and adopt
ed unanimously:
"The milling industry of the Unit

in Chicago on April 1st. 1932. does
hereby express its appreciation 10

given to the welfare of the mining
industry throughout the negotiations
between industry and the Red Cross
on milling arrangements for relief
flour. This patient consideration and
thoughtful co-operation is being eon-
inued through the operations of the
Central Wheat Distribution Office of
tne American icea cross.
"Without the fine spirit of under-
standing which the Red Cross has
displayed toward the problems ere-
ated for the milling industry in this
new undertaking this project would
have been disastrous to the industry.
"It is our feeling that the Red
Cross has dealt and is dealing equit
ably and fairly with the mills in
thi3. large responsibility.

MOTH DAMAGE WIDESPREAD
"Injury caused by the infestation
of upholstered furniture by moths is
widespread. No section cf the coun-
try seems free flora such Infestations,
Most of the ..losses sustained are. due
to neglect or lack of information
concerning the life history and hab

"Injury by moth3 is confined al- of the schools, decided to eliminate

as wool tapestries and mohairs. The to decide who of the present force

because of their beauty and dura-
bility, need not be lessened because
f the moth problem."
The above remarks made by Mr.
F. I. Rea of the Iowa-Nebr. Light &
Power company, in connection with '
tne startling statement that every
year moth damage in homes through
out the I nited States amounts to
?10,800,000, were taken from Farm
ers Bulletin No. 1655 issued recent
ly by the U. S. Department of Agri
culture at Washington, D. C.
"Frequent use of a good electric
vacuum cleaner and a chemical
known as Paradichlorobenzene (sold
by druggists under the name Dich-
loriclde) are highly recommended by i
the Department of Agriculture," con
tinued Mr. Rea, "to effectively com
bat moth damage."
"The best equipment yet devised,
employing the use of Dichloricide
and providing a highly efficient and
very inexpensive electric vacuum
cleaner for upholstered furniture,
mattresses, pillows, furs, clothings
and the like, is known as ths Pre
mier Spic-Span.
"With its newly developed equip
ment, thia handy little cleaner serves
the dual purpose of vacuum cleaner
and moth-killer. There are no end
to its uses and it costn so little that j
every home should have one."
