Fluorescent lights give off more lumens per watts (units of light) and use less electricity than incandescent bulbs used for the same purpose. The efficiency of incandescent light bulbs increases as the wattage increases. This means you receive more lumens per watt from higher wattage bulbs. For example, one 100 watt bulb produces approxi mately the same amount of light as two 60 watt bulbs. KEEPING COOL IN THE SUMMER Closing drapes, blinds and cur tains or installing awnings on windows facing the sun can cut the amount of heat coming into your house. Using a kitchen exhaust fan will carry away cooking odors, as well as the heat and moisture. When buying a new air condi tioner. check its efficiency by determining the energy efficiency ratio (EER). The EER is the amount of cooling you get for the amount of electricity used. To find the EER for a particular model, divide the model's capacity (BTU's) by the energy it uses (Watts). The higher the EER, the more cooling you get for the energy used. Ohio Britt Faces Opposition For State Senate Incumbent Luther Britt Jr. is opposed in the Aug. 17 Democratic primary by Harold G.

Accent On Agriculture It took the average taxpayer from January 1 until May 1 to earn enough money to fulfill his tax obligations for the year, according to figures from the Tax Founda tion. In other words, you had to work four months a day to pay for all your governmental services for 1976. For those who like to take things one day at a time, here's another way to look at your taxes. The bite amounts to 2 hours and 39 minutes out of your earnings for every eight-hour work day. five days a week, 50 weeks a year. That's four minutes more per day than it took in 1975. Your typical taxpayer in 1976 must work one hour and 41 minutes a day for Washington, and 58 minutes a day for state and local government. Taxes comprise the largest single item in the average family's budget. By contrast, about one hour and five minutes of your work day earned the money to buy groceries and beverages. It takes about 1 hour and 32 minutes to take care of all housing costs. Total expenses for transpor tation takes around 39 minutes of the paycheck. Medical care takes 25 minutes. ffatu*?tn y ?flt. 3 a/?A* VAuwA of Gojoft W. #un* 6 .%*We# W/a/ 7.'if &.*A(. ij is MW /? o//wm/ iilKKIIIIRNNXMMXMMKMKKKHttXXKNIUIKllKXMKUKKXMiitKKKUXi'.XKKKUXX Edison recommends a minimum EER of 8. When starting you air condition er, do not set the thermostat lower than normal for you. Doing so will not cool your house any faster. Adjust the thermostat to a setting at which your family feels comfort able and leave it there. If you have central air condition ing with an outside condenser, make sure leaves, grass and other objects are kept clean of the unit ? otherwise the unit's operation will be hampered. Properly insulating sidewalls and ceiling area, as well as weatherstripping doors and caulking windows, will help keep cool air in and hot air out. Periodically dust or vacuum the grill and condenser front on your air conditioner. Turn on exhaust fan or open bathroom window when bathing ? this will keep the added heat and humidity from the other parts of your home. Frequently check air condition filter for dirt. Clean and replace as recommended by manufacturer. Magistrates Court The following cases were heard by the magistrates: John W.
