The prope- ??Ht*ing of show wi.idows has been a
great problem with most merchants, i. e., lighting them
in a way which viii display the MERCHANDISE and not
his LIGHTING FiXTLUES. While the lighting fixtures
are absolutely necessary for the proper lighting of the
display they should be designed to place the light on the
goods and not in the e .es of persons looking in the win
dows.
National X-Ray re lectors are designed exclusively
for window lighting, a id the merchant will have no dif
ficulty in selecting one which will correctly and economi
cally illuminate Ins windows.

Many Banks Wish
To Get Into Line
Washington. Jan. 21.-Misunder
standings among many bankers as to
that part of the currency act which
provides when banks shall enter the
reserve systom, led treasury officials
to issue a statement tonlsht design- 1
ed to clean up the situation and pre
vent needless inquiries. The state
ment says In part:
"A number of banks appear to be
under the impression that only banks
located In resorvo cities are required
aa a matter of law to signify their ac
ceptance cf tile Federal reserve net
within sixty v days from HB passage.
All national banks are re au lr ed to
their acceptance or non-acceptance
of the terms of tho act within sixty
days, Irrespective of their location.
"It is not compulsory, that 8tate
banks and trust companies shall _sjg~
nify within e!-ty days from the pas
sage of the act their intention In tho
matter."
Legal applications for membership
in the new system has been made by
4,620 banks. If applicants continue
to reach the treasury at the present!
rate, there will bo close to 6,000 by
the end of the week. There are only
7,roo national bankB in the United!
StatCB, ana since by far the greater!
portion of the applicants are nat- j
j ional banks, indications point to but
* few renewing without the system.
The limit of applications <ia February
22.
I According to treasury officials the
total capital of the national banks
which have formally appled reprc
; sent? about 70 per cont of the total
capital of all the nation's national
banks. Eighty-two state banks and
membership and since t haepproval
of tho reserve act. .December 23, sixty
four such institutions have expressed
their . dealre to become national
banks. _'_

HARD FACTS ABOUT GOOD ROADS
We've all heard that bad roads are
taking money out ot the farmers' poc
kets. Well, here's ? some red-hot
proof from a recent bulletin issued
by the Office of Public Roads of the
United Sutes Department of Agricul
ture. It shows that where roads are
bad, farmers are* forced to market
their product, notwhen the Toads
are good, but when the roads hap
pen to be passable;
Two formers living in different
counties, but an equal distance from
the cotton market, discovered by
telephone that cotton had gone up Si
?. bale. The farmer living on a bad
road immediately hauled to market
one baie of cotton, which waa ali he
could get over the unimproved road
The other, living on a good road
rj able to haul four balea. Road
conditions gave oue fanner a profit
ot ft and the other a profit ot $4.
$3 out of Ute pockets of ene vic
