OZONE FOR SKYSCRAPERS.
How Fresh Air II Supplied In The
MOdern Tall Buildings.

Hundreds of men and women are
boxed up all day long in little cages
on every ioor of the modern Office
building. Yet this mass Of huddlcd
humanity never suffers from any lack
Of fresh air. The ventilation is per
feet. a fact which often surprises for
eign architects.
The delivery of fresh air into a sky
scraper is as big a busiess as the de
livery of water or electricity. 1t is not
left to chance. Cold, fresh air is forced
into the building by a blowing engine
and passes through large ducts and
controlling registers to the different
rooms. In winter this air is heated
by passing through coils Of steam
pipes.
Often the blower is arranged to de-
liver both no and cold air, and the
ducts are provided with mixing valves
which can be set to combine the two
blasts in any required proportion.
Thus one can have fresh air of exact.
~ the temperature called for by the
weather.
Bad air is got rid OF by wall regis
tiers near the fioor through which the
vitiated air escapes into ducts which
lead to a large common outlet above
the roof. These ducts may be of sheet
iron or they may Ike Of tile built in
the wall like chimney flues. Some
times they are large spaces inclosed in
the upper parts Of the corridors by
false ceilings.
In other cases the bad air is taken
to the basement and discharged by an
exhaust fan into a tall outside shaft
used for that purpose Only.-New York

AMEND. BUT NOT REPEAL.
Senator Hansbrough Opposes the Pro-
posed Repeal Of Land Laws and
Points out Where irrigation Would

Although Senator Hansbrough,
chairman of the senate committee on
public lands. whose name is closely as
ISOLATED with the framing and passage
of the national irrigation act, cannot
be present at the state irrigation con-
vention which convened at Bismarck
today. his views were expressed to
the convention Of delegates assembled.
and they were received with marked
interest. as coming from the chairman
OF the senate committee on public
lands and n to whom the state will
look for assistance in it's obtaining of
recognition from the government irri-
gators. Senator HansbrOugh, in let
tc7s to the state committe and other
prominent citizens of the state, op-
poses the project set afloat by some
enthusiastic irrigation exponents for
the repeal of the desert land law, the
timber and stone act and the commu
tatiOn clause Of the homestead law,
and he believes the convention should
put itself on record on those matters.
if they desire the furtherance Of
government aid in irrigation in the
future. Senator Hansbrough calls at
tention to the fact that the govern
ment funds to be devoted to irriga-
tinr npico 1oruy frnnn LAND fabian
under these laws, and that if they are
repealed absolutely it will cut OF the
source from which aid to irrigation
will come. He believes also that
amendments can be passed which will
overcome the objection to the laws
based on frauds which have been com
mitted under them. These amend
ments will prevent disposal Of suct
claims until final proof under then
has been made. Such an amendment
to the laws in question is now II
course Of preparation by the senator
and will be presented mt the cmOihl
session Of congress.
There is now in the irrigation fund
to be devoted to the reclamation o
arid and semi-arid lands. some SIG,
OOO.O0N. The anti-irrigatiOnists. &C
cording to the senator, are claiming
that no more money is needed ant
that the evenue producing land law
can be repealed without damage to tn
project OF irrigation. This argument
the senator thinks, will be quite 20
tent with those unfamiliar with tn
extent Of irrigation possibilities. Blu
Senator Hansbrough thinks that Il
the course Of the next twenty-fiv
years 800. 100000 a be spent profit

Mr.. HILLS

Those who heard Mr.. Hills address
at the Atheneum before the state irri-
cation congress could not fail to be
impressed with Mr.. Hills earnestness
and knowledge Of the subject with
which he dealt. Those who did not
hear the address should not fail to
read it. as the full text Of his speech
appears in the Tribune this afternoon.
Not the least interesting portion of it
was his showing of the remarkable
growth of the state in the past few
years, proven by figures from the
different stations along the Great
Northern line. Doubtless figures from
other roads would show a similar con-
dition for other paris of the state.
But the main fact is that North Dako-
ia is growing as never before, ana
growing solidly and for all times.
Mr.. Hill also demonstrated his
knowledge OF the requirements for
Successful farming, by showing the
difference between loose and careless
agriculture and close cultivation OF
the soil. 1t is in this regard that he
considers irrigation for North Dakota
Il method of 1ertilizing and enriching
the soil, until one acre shall be made
10 do what three or four or even ten
acres can do now. This is the secret
Of success. To take advantage of all
the opportunities and make the most
of them.
His irrigation talk is worthy Of care
full attention. but not the less interest
ing and absorbing are his observations
on general business and growth. He
have more markets and bigger markets
and, more than all, to have cOmpeti-
tive markets. This is possible in the
development of the Oriental traffic in
which he is thoroughly interested and
in which he is far ahead of his times.
His references to Chamberlain's pro-
posed fiscal policy and its effect upon
the grain growers of this country, and
the means by which they can protect
then selves makes his address of ma
tional interest and takes in the domain
CT national economics. 1t will be
widely read and it will furnish in
spiration for discussion and should
lead to a broad consideration of the
subjects he discussed.
Bismarck's reception of Mr.. Hill was
cordial, and the delegates from all
parts of the state united to do him
honor, as a big man. a broad man, a
builder, and easily the most con
spicuous character in the development
of the great Northwest. His reception
was no doubt pleasing to him, as the
fact Of his presence was pleasing tt
the people of this locality and of tbs
whole state.
His interest in any state means
much of benefit in the way Of settle.
ment. ana that his interest in NORTH
Dakota was sincere he declared yester
day. when he offered his aid to what
ever might be of benefit to the state.

direct appropriation sfor irrigation.
and the repeating of these laws will
be killing the goose that lays the
golden egg for those interested in
irrigation works.
The senator also thinks that a re
peal of the present land laws, IN
stead of benefiting the country, would
turn the tide of homeseekers to the
Canadian northwest, to the diSad-
vantage of the northwestern states.
The amounts covered into the
treasury of the United States from
the sales Of public lands in h north
west and available for irrigation work
under the national act are given ny
the department approximately as
follows.

Speaking of the irrigation congress
held in Ogden last month Opportunity
says: The irrigation congress in
Ogden last month was IA great s,scess.
There were so many delegates that it
was with difficulty that they were
gotten into the convention hall. \
large number of newspaper cores
po"ientS were in attendance. and a
trainload of Washington correspon-
dents were taken out not only to the
convention. but for a roundup OF the
irrigated regions of Colorado. Utah
and Montana. What they saw amazed
them. and they have endeavOred to
pass their surprise on to the country
at large. II took years of hard work
to get irrigation the attention it de-
serves from the nation. but now there
viii be no backward steps. Each year,
for perhaps fifty years to come. some
new region of the arid west will be
opened to settlement through the
money spent by Uncle Sam. Homes
will be rooted in the desert.

United States Senator Redfeld Proc

Application Of Moisture.
Major A. w. Thomas of Fort Ber-

of irrigation and says:
while the question of irrigation is

to briefly call attention to thebenefts

ing on the reservation.
There are a few small streams run
ming through these lands, the waters
of which may be used by building
dams and creating reservoirs in irri-
eating a limited amount of these lands.
Then. there are on either side of the
river. first bottom lands, which may
and will before many years, be irrl-
gated by water pumped from the Mis-
souri, river. This is a work which
will call for a large outlay of money
in the installation of the pumping sta
tions. construction of bitches, water
gates etc, to begin with with the many
thousands of acres which may be made
productive by this method alone,

were installed. but would soon

The question of fuel for the proposed

dams, but today twenty five per cent
of the allottees are deceased, and the
lands they owned may be sold to the
highest bidder. and the purchaser OBJ
