They should have a wind engine, as
n matter of economy. Az present,
daring the summer months, they are
compelled 10 get up steam every day
20 pump water into the tank for dis
tributlon.
This could DO done Just a well with

engineer, aud the cost of the fuel,
whlehwould In one season more than
pay the lrst cost OF q wind engine.
The institutl0n should have n green.

their refining influence upon children,
~ well worthy Of al consideration. ~
would compensate in return OF good
influence.
