Several times q year the average house
wife finds herself confronted with a
"stopped-up" sink Amateur EFFORTS at
opening the drain pipes are unavailing.
Trained skill must be called in and commo-
ton and plumbers bills follow.
This is one OF the many instances where
an ounce Of prevention Is worth pound OF
cure. There are kitchens to whom the
plumbers visit Is almost as rare as a blue
moon, and with a fairly modern system OF
drainage and a little care their number
might easily increase and multiply.
Sink stOppage Is usually caused by
grease, sometimes by coffee grounds, and IA
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred by
carelessness.. See that your plates are
scrsped free from grease and scraps be
fore they so into the dishpan; insist that
ooffee grounds SHAH ma their way into tn
garbage can rather than the sink. Keep a

A plumber once said to me: "If women

there would be less work for us. Some OF
them use I've, which cuts the grease, but
ruins the pipes. Soda is far better"

dustry has come to stay and the need Of
a factory nearer 20 the farms than those
located In the eastern part Of the state Is
marked The delays and Inconvenience
connected with the shipment Of the crop
could in a sense be eliminated with FAC
tory located where its supply is grown.
Storage reservoirs are needed so that water
assembled from the South Platte river
during the winter months could be used TO
irrigate the fertile tablelands to the south.
with the proper irrigation facilities for
this land the increase In population and
wealth would mean much to the prosperity
OF the town. More capital Is needed In
Sutherland and proper organization on the
part Of the business people to properly pro-
mote the prosperity OF the place.
There is always a scarcity Of available
rental properties and the population would
rapidly increase were there dwellings
equal to the demand. A mill, canning
factory for tomatoes, peas and sweet corn,
complete irrigation facilities, better train
service, FIRE protection and more people
are among the chief needs Of the town and
contiguous territory. 1t Is generally con-
ceded that the town will have a population
Of not less than 1000 within the next three
year, and this will make a need FOR more
along the line of general merchandise and
other businesses. At present Sutherland
lffers good opportunity for the homeseeker
who desires pleasant environment, health
lul ozone. good school facilities and pro-
gressiveness.

Economy in Gas Engines.

The tests Of American coal which have
been made by the United States geological
survey will serve at least two good pur-
poses. BY determining the beat generating
power and other qualities of different grades
OF fuel produced in this country they will
assist the intelligent buyer in learning how
TO get the most for his money when pro-
curing coal for a steam plant. They will
also emphasize the economy which, under
certain conditions, is attainable by using
gas engines This latter possibility Is at
present better appreciated in Europe than
in America. II is now a we'll established
fact that more power can be derived from
a ton of coal by converting II into gas and
exploding the product behind a piston than
by employing It for the development OF
steam The output in the former case 10
about two and a half times as great as
in the latter with small engines.-NeE York
