TO KEEP LAMPS
FROM SMOKING

Nearly every family uses lamps even
in this day OF new inventions. for after
all neither gas nor electricity can
equal the soft. steady glow OF lamp
light for reading and sewing. But un-
less a person has been educated in their
proper care the result is bound to be
simpler, and here is absolutely no
reason for a lamp smoking or seeming
the room with the unbearable odor
of kerosene If a few rules are adhered
to-
Daily cleansing of every lamp in use
should be as much a part of the house
wife's duties as making the beds, and
the boiling of the burners at least once
in a fortnight is as important as the
weekly sweeping. 'Vicks should not be
trimmed with shears, but wiped of with
a soft cloth. for in the former case there
are always Jagged or uneven portions
left, which cause the flame 10 fare
and the lamp to smoke. BY carefully
wlping of the charred portions OF the
wick each day a steady, symmetrical
light viii be obtained.
Another precautiOn to take TO prevent
wicks from smoking is 70 boil them.

Drain out the Wicks. drain thoroughly
and keep away from dust. Wicks thus
soaked almost never smoke.
IL chimneys are bought in quantity
and boiled, they also may be prevented
in Il great measure from breaking.

Never leave the Wicks Turned up

creating not only an unpleasant OdOr,
but being disagTeeable To handle. In
carrying a lamp from one room 10 an

but never allow the wick to remain

At a meeting of the stock holders
in the Pierce. Cunningham, Ballard
Ditch Company, held yesterday after
noon at three O'Clock in the Office of
the American National Bank, it was
unanimously decided to tile the irri-
cation ditch of this company, known
as the Center ditch, through the city
of Roswell This was the formal ac-
ceptance of the contract entered into
several months ago, whereby the ci-
ty agreed to bear half the expense of
tiling.
The ditch is to be tiled from the
place where the water is taken out
of North Spring river to the right-of-
way of the Pecos Valley and North
eastern Railway, on East Fifth
street. The tiling, it is estimated,
will be 4,2OO feet in length and will
cost more than dollar per foot,
when all expense is paid. The work
is to be done this fall, or as soon
thereafter as practicable.
The action of the stockholders was
to appoint committee and instruct
that committee to make contract for
the work This committee is compos-
ed of George M. Slaughter, James
Garrard, Arthur ]. Stevens. They will
consult with w. A. Wilson, the COM
pany's engineer, who will advise them
as to the size of tiling, etc. 1t is pro-
bable that the tiling will be SO inches
in diameter, the same size as the til
ing being made for the ditch in the
south part of town.
The tiling of bitches will be ben
eft as a sanitary measure and will
save water now lost by seepage and
evaporation. The southern ditcn will
be tiled as soon as the irrigation sea-
son ends The Hondo Stone Mfg. Co.
has the contract and is now making
the tiling for this job
The meeting yesterday afternoon
was the biggest in the history of the
p. c. B. Company. fully 80 per cent
of the stock being represented. Sen
timent was all one way.

Roswell is to have a large ice
plant next year. This announcement
is made upon the assurance of some
of the best business men of the city
who are back of the enterprise. 1t is
the Roswell Gas Company that is to
build the plant, and this company is
composed of some of the most relia-
BILE men in the city. A Pruit is presi-
dent and L. K. McGaffey secretary.
The directors of the gas company
met late yesterday afternoon in the
L. K McGaffey's office, and voted to
build an ice plant to be run in con
nection with their gas plant now un
der construction. 1t will be a thirty
ton plant, capable of supplying Ros
well, the farmers of the vicinity and
of shipping to towns up and down
the valley. The Diamond Ice Compa-
ny's plant made about twelve to fif-
teen tons per day and supplied the
town fairly well. The new plant will
cost $4,000. To have plenty of mon
ey to carry on the business, the gas
and ice company will probably put a
few shares on the market, saleable
only to Roswell people.
President Pruit stated today that
his company would make plenty of
ice. early next summer, and sell it
at a reasonable price.
The gas plant is nearing compile
tion at the grounds of the company
near the Spring river crossing OF
the railroad. 1t will be ready for gas
making by the middle of September
The work of laying mains will be
commenced next week. When. this
plant is completed the ice plant will
be started.
