fornia and was shipped through; by OK

lIhe Dickinson school board has form
ally accepted the steam heating and
ventilating plant installed in the high
school building by the Fargo Plumbing
Co. during the month of September.
The board is highly pleased with the
plant, as are all who have examined it.
1t is believed that the district will re-
quire one-half less fuel by the use of
this plant in the place of hot air furnaces
and a most satisfactory heat. for mild or
cold weather, is obtained. The plant
cost s2,o47 and is as fine a heating and
ventilating arrangement as can be found
in the Northwest. The first cost seems
like a large sum of money, which it is,
but in the end it will prove n of the
best investments the district has ever
made.
