wiring a small electric stove

I am putting in a small electric stove I have lots of space in my breaker panel for additional circuits. The stove is about 75 feet from the panel. It is a 220 stove. What wire type/size should I use? What breaker size? The area in unfinished so I can wire along/thru the ceiling joists. Also how many two bulb ceiling light fixtures can be put on one circuit about 75 feet long using 14-2 and a 15 amp breaker or should I up to 12-2 because of length of run? How many standard outlets on a similar run (75') 14-2 or 12-2 ? 15 amp or 20 amp breaker?

You would have to find out the AMPS on the stoves nameplate. usually they are 30A you would use 10AWG wire Two hot and a ground.
