has been established in that place for
number OF years "a city about the
size of Brookings) and which is a great
success. The Touring mill is run by
an electric motor at a saving or
expense to the miller. This gives the
electric dynamos a day run and not
only furnishes power for the mill, but
also for grain elevators, feed mills,
machine shops, butcher shops, mer-
chants, dentists, printing offices and
in fact practically all the power in the
city Is furnished from the one central
plant. This day run of the electrical
machinery furnishes vast amount or
exhaust steam which is used TO heat
almost every business house in the
city and we understand the school
house also is to be heated in the same
manner The manner in which this
system was established, was that a
certain number of business men agreed
and did pay to the electric lighting
plant sum of money equal to the
amount of money expended the year
previous for the fuel used in the stoves.
With this money the managers OF the
electric lighting station put pipes along
the street and connected those pipes
! to the heating systems which the
business men had at their own expense
placed IN their building The next
| year The system Of heating was extend
! ed in like manner. Thus the
merchants received their heat at no
greater expense than they would have
| been to if they had heated with stoves
and there was no coal TO handle, no
/ smoke or ashes, and their buildings
are always warm In the morning.
| Win the merchants Of Brookings for
moment consider the saving OF time
and the lessening of damage to their
goods by using steam heat furnished
| in this manner over the present way
of heating their establishments?
This is not all to the question under
consideration. 1t is estimated by
those who are conversant with the
problem that only small amount (25
per cent? of the heat units in coal is
utilized in heating water In a steam
| boiler The remaining go per cent
goes up the chimney. If this be true,
some morning take a look at the cloud
of black smoke which is emitted from
the large chimney at the public school
! building and see if YOU need any more
convincing argument that there is a
/ terrible waste of energy going at that
point which ought to be prevented and
could be if the heating energy was
transferred to the central power
station. This was why the REGISTER
and many others who had been study
ing the question wanted the electric
lighting plant located where it is, hop

ing that very soon the school board
would grasp the sitHStion and not
only cheaper the cost OF heating the
building, but also remove the hazard
of having steam boilers under the
building, where 600 little folks are
daily in danger OF being killed by
boiler explosion Now we do not want
the reader TO think that there is any
immediate danger of such a catas-
trophe, but the removal of the boilers
would prevent even the possibility OF
such an occurrence. The piping from
the power house TO the school building
would cost a very small sum and the
work might be done this fall II the
board so desired. At least one-third
Of the expense Of heating the school
building might be saved IL this were
done Can we afford TO let this matter
rest and employ such wasteful meth
ods when we have il in our own hands
to remedy the evil? Here is chance
to save coal and at the same time
make an experiment in central heat
! ing which the REGISTER is certain
will prove highly satisfactory TO every
| one interested.
| But. saws someone, how will we get
day run FOR the electric system? II
Mr.. Sexauer can be convinced that he
| can run his mill as cheaply with a
motor as he can with an engine will he
not gladly procure his power from the
city? We believe Mr.. SeXauer is too
prudent a business man to let an
opportunity of such nature escape
him, especially when it will remove
practically all the hazard from his
establishment. When once we can
get the day run OF electric energy every
piece OF machinery which is now being
! driven by steam or gasoline will be
attached to the electric system.
The merchants are all aware that II
requires no little time and expense to
run one or two stoves in their stores,
to say nothing of the dust, SCOT and
smoke which during the winter dam
ages considerable amount or their
goods and makes their entire estah-
ment look dingy and time worn, try as
they may to prevent the loss and
shabby looks. Ask any merchant
using steam or hot water heat whathe
thinks about the proposition.
| We cannot, even in this extended
article, go into every detail relating to
| the best methods OF transmitting the
heat or all the benefits TO be derived
from such system, but trust what we
have written may be made plain to
the reader and that every person inter
ested in the city and its welfare will
look into the matter as we have and,
If they do we are satisfied what the
result will be.

The local union at Brookfield, Mis-
souri,, recently took advanced ground
in its supervision OF the department
Of Scientific Temperance Instruction
by presenting TO the High School OF
that place an Anatomical Aid, at a
cost OF 800 This chart or series of charts,
is used to demonstrate the effects
Of alcohol and tobacco on the human
system. The presentation address
was made by Mrs. Ida Is. Cole, OF Chi
cago, lecturer for the Anti Narcotic
department, and the "Aid" was for
mally excepted by Mr.. Chas. Green
editor OF local paper and member OF
the school board. Pictures OF Miss
Willard and Mrs Mary III. Hunt were
also presented to the school and &C.
cepted by the principal.
A recent article in the Birmingham,
(Eng.) Post, and widely copied by Eng.
lish newspapers, is of special interest
to American white ribboners. IL en-
phasizes the need OF temperance
instruction in schools. Whatever may
be thought, IL says, OF the desirability
Of imparting TO youth the principles
Of various creeds pertaining TO future
life, there can be no doubt OF the
necessity for more thorough educa-
tlon in matters pertaining to the life
that now is If England is TO hold its
own In the competition OF the near
future" The United States is cited
as worthy example. In that country,
the writer points out, the Importance
OF scientific temperance instruction is
fully recognized. 1t is there no longer
fad" but zone Of the indispensable
elements Of knowledge" The most
important result OF this teaching, look
ing at 1t from national standpoint,
is in his opinion, its bearing upon the
commercial status OF this nation To
scientific temperance instruction in
its public schools and in schools under
federal control, is TO be attributed,
this Englishman declares, the growing
commercial power OF the United
States, power which threatens to
swamp all competitors"

CENTRAL HEATING STATION.
Can BrOokinSs Afford to Go Without
One,

Never ia the history of the United
States has there been SO much discus
sion regarding the fuel question as
exists at the present time, Laying
aside the merits or dement's of the
struggle between the mine operators
and the miners, the REGISTER desires
To bring TO the attention OF the resi-
dents and property owners of this city
something which cannot fail at this
time to be of interest, and we trust
every reader will make personal
investigation, so far as possible, of the
problem which is here presented.
We have in these columns recently
suggested the esta blishment of CEN
tral heating system and propose now
TO shed little more light on the sub
ject in order to convince our citizens
that the plan is practical and must be
introduced if we are to receive full
benefit from the resources at hand
First, let US consider the enormous
loss Of heat which, after passing
through the engine, goes out through
the exhaust pipe into the open air.
1t is estimated by practical engineers
with whom we have talked that not
more than twenty per cent of the heat
units are used in passing through the
engine, the remaining eighty per cent
Of heat units are then absolutely lost.
The steam pressure on the city power
house boilers averages about l20
pounds, Steam passes from tn e
boilers through siX-inch pipe to the
engines at pressure Of 130 pounds,
maximum. Ifthe engines only utilize
twenty pounds of this steam the
reader can readily see that beyond the
engine there must be at least eighty
per cent of the heat that goes to waste,
which if properly handled would fur
nish heat for vast number OF build
ings
The REGISTER first became con-
vinced of the benefits of exhaust steam
heating by using the exhaust steam
from its own engine less than five
horse power) finding that after using
the steam to run the presses there
was much more going out the exhaust
pipe than was required to heat the
entire building two stories high.
The steam from this engine alone
would heat three times the radiating
surface of the REGISTER office If the
buildings were properly fitted with
pipes or radiators
