CENTRAL HEAT
IS DESCRIBED
BY J. |. HUGHES OF THIS CITY
Advantages of System Which Is to be
Installed i'm North Yakima as Seen
BY Careful Student.

The Yakima Central Heating COM
pany which has recently entered into
a contract with the Schott Engineer
ing company of Chicago to build a
central heating plant, according to j.
L. Hughes who has given three years
investigating modern central station
heating plant for North Yakima,
is showing marked activity among the
citizens of North Yakima. Repre-
sentatives of The Schott Engineering
company are now here assisting in
the presentation of the many advan-
tages of this method of heating.
Purely Mutual Company.
The originators of the central heat
ing idea in North Yakima had in mind
the organization of a purely mutual
company, composed entirely of North
Yakima people and this plan has been
fully carried out, the thought being
that it would fully warrant an invest
ment to centralize all of the heating
plants and by so doing all of those in
terested in the proposition would be
able to secure their heat at cost of
production and that cost of production
would be less than it could possibly
be with the many individual plants
now in operation.
Contract With Ice Company
The board of directors of the Cen
trail Heating company have entered
into a contract with the Artificial Ice
& Cold Storage company to take the
waste heat which ordinarily results in

YAKIMA VALLEY
DAY SEPT. e
SUPP. RAASZt WANTS ACTION
Think Better Showing Should be
Made Than on County Day at
A.-Y.-P.-E.

Yakima valley day at the A.-Y.-P.
exposition has been set for September
%, and f. j. Haasze in charge of the
Yakima county building at the fair is
anxious that steps be taken at once
to make it a big success. He has
written to Secretary w. b. Newcomb
of the county committee suggesting
that the committee outline plan Of
some kind. Inasmuch as Yakima
county day in June was not a howl
ing success, Mr.. Haasze thinks that it
is up to the people of the valley TO
make good this time. He writes as
follows to Secretary Newcomb:
Arouse Entire Valley.
I'm talking with the commissioners
from Kittitas and Benton counties in
regard to Yakima Valley day Septem-
Der %, don't you think that your
committee had better appoint some
NIT of the Cascades to the Columbia
river and get their different commit
tees appointed. Find out what they
want to do, how they want to do it,
whether they want a reception and
speakers and all these different things
that come up.
There will be more or less trouble
and the sooner we get at this and get
organized, the better it will be for we
must make that day success. We
have had a number of talks with Mr..
Buckley in regard to this and they
are ready to work hand in hand with
us. We can either have the natural
ampitheater or the auditorium, just as
the weather permits. They must
know just what we intend to do so
that they can get it in their daily pro-
grams and the more times the name Of
Yakima valley appears on the pro-
gram the more advertising we will
get.
Let us hear the opinions of the
various committees so we can confer
with the com missioners here in regard
to the matter"

APPORT|ONMENT
KEPT SECRET.
CONFERENCE IS CONCLUDED
Secretary of Interior Refuses to Make
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS on
October 1.

PORTLAND. Aug. 3.-Secretary of
Interior Ballinger left for Seattle at
midnight tonight after concluding the
conference with the heads of the rec
lamation service held in this city. Be-
fore departing for the train Secretary
Ballinger was urged to state what
amounts had been appropriated for the
various projects, but he declined,
saying: THE announcement of the
appropriations are made by my depart
ment quarterly. The next one will be
october l." In an Interview tonight
Director Newell stated that an effort
will be made during the coming year
to complete all the larger projects I'M
der way. Among those he mentioned
were: The Teton system, North
Yakima, Washs the Boise system in
Idaho and the Minidokan system in
Idaho.
The estimates made at today's con-
ference are emily rough estimates and
will require considerable revision.
When Secretary Ballinger determines
the exact amount that the different
projects will be allotted the figures
will be given out. Secretary Ballinger
inferred that this statement will not
be given out before October l.
He was asked whether the depart
ment would initiate any new projects
within the coming year and although
he declined to discuss this subject he
said it was the plan of the depart
ment to complete and get onto a pay
ing basis the projects now under way,
so that they would bring some suitable
remuneration for the sums of money
which the government has already
spent on them.
He also said that few of these prof.
ects are completed From this and
the previous announcement by the de-
partment that there is a scarcity of
funds it is inferred that the govern
ment intends to use every bit of avail
able money to complete projects now
under way, and the hope that there
will be any projects initiated for 1910
is slight

We. FIGHT
DEMON RUM
YAKIMA COUNTY BATTLE GROUND
FOrmulative Steps for Bceinning of
Local Option Campaign to be Con-
sidered at Meeting.

Breakers lie ahead for demon rum in
Yakima county Between the activi-
ty of the sheriff's office in wiping out
illegal traffic in liquor in the lower
Yakima valley, and anti-saloon sup
porters agitating the testing of the
local option law passed by the last
legislature, John Barleycorn and his
cohorts are expected to have a siren
us time. The hope of the anti
saloon league of the state is pinned
to eastern Washington counties land
ing a knockout blow on the evil, and
Yakima county has been chosen as
one of the battle grounds were the
fur will fly the thickest.
Meeting Sunday.
AntiSaloon people have issued a
call for meeting sunday at which
fOrmulative steps for the beginning of
the battle will be taken. Papers will
be read by prominent local opponents
of thirstiness, and other matters per-
tanning to civic purity will be dis
cussed. Just at present the movement
lacks a leader as no one cares to be
the hub of the prohibition wheel, but
packer of the banner is expected
to crop out at the Sunday session.
Chelan and other counties east of the
Cascades have begun a local option
campaign and Yakima county is slat-
ed to fall into line before many weeks.
After Reservation Offenders.
Warrants were issued by the pros
ecuting attorneys office Tuesday
morning for the arrest of eight men
in Wapato and Toppenish charged
with the crime of selling whiskey TO
Indians. Five of the warrants call
for the arrest of Toppenish men and
three are for Wapato citizens. Viola
ton of the liquor laws of the state
by men on the reservation has flour
ished for years and they are some in
that section who look upon the inva-
sion of the law as a personal affront
to their personal liberty and financial
well being. In some instances it is
stated that more money is made by
the violation of the law than by the
conducting of a legitimate business
in booze" 1t is this phase of the
liquor problem that is worrying the
authorities.

the manufacture of ice. Pure ice re-
quires that the water must first be dis
titled, that is, 1t must be converted in
to steam and in the transformation
from steam to ice a great deal of heat
must be given up and this heat the
Central Heating company proposes to
save by the installation of proper APP
tenn of distribution.
Will Give Continual Service
The entire system has been designed
with special reference to continual
service and a shut down can only
come through causes beyond the con-
troll of man.
There are many advantages in this
method of heating which, taken from
a purely business point of view are
as follows:
1t will enhance property values 1t
will eliminate treacherous fires re-
sulting from old furnaces and over
heated flues. 1t will save mainten-
ance, repairs and operation of fur
naces and radiators. 1t will give a
store heated in every nook and corner
every minute of the twenty-four
hours. The constant and even heat Is
cheerful and inviting and commands
customers 1t will give the space
otherwise used for furnaces and coal
bins for other purposes.
Coal Dirt Is Eliminated.
The absence of dirt from coal, a sfes
and SCOT eliminates the usual damage
to goods. The temperature of every
room is entirely under control by the
use of regulating valves placed on each
and every radiator. One only pays for
the amount of heat one uses as the
service is metered the same as water,
light or gas. Outside of it being d
business proposition, there are many
advantages which should appeal t. ali
public spirited citizens of North Yak
ina. A few of the more important
ones are: 1t will take off the streets
the hauling of coal and ashes. 1t will
shut down all of the chimneys
throughout the city which are noy
belching smoke and SCOT. It will give
North Yakima a public utility plant
which only the most modern and up
to date cities are today enjoying.

NEED PERMIT
TO BURY BODY
DP. FRANK tNFORCtS LAW
County Health Officer Will Insist That
People Obey Law and Will Punish
All Violations.

Burials at Tahoma cemetery with
out proper permit will not be toler-
ated by DR.. Philip Frank, county
health officer A case was discovered
Monday of a funeral taking place
from the Cowiche valley without a
permit, and DR.. Frank Immediately
began an investigation. The sexton I'm
charge of the cemetery explained that
he thought the permit would be pro-
cured later and so did not interfere
with the burial. DIR. Frank was very
much incensed and declared that a
repetition of the occurrence would be
severely dealt with.
THE law is very strict on this
point" said DIR. Frank Tuesday. 'If
it were not there would be no way of
stopping promiscuous burials without
chance of investigation by the au-
thoritieS as to the cause of death. Be
fore burial takes place a represen-
tative of the family is expected to
present certificate of death at my
Office and l issue IA burial permit il
| am satisfied that everything is all
right. Where ii is impossible for the
family to come to my office, | have
deputies appointed to act in my stead.
There are several in the county, and
there is no excuse for not commune
eating with one"
Dr. Frank said that people are neg
ligent also in reporting births and
deaths. The physicians, he said as a
rule are prompt in this, but where
there is not a physician called in the
case the reports are not made. There
is a severe penalty for this, and DR..
Elmer II. Heg, state health commits
sioner, recently sent out warning
that violations of the law in this mat
ter would be punished.

PAINT EVERY YEAR.
RIO One Wants to Do It, But Some
Paint Will Wear No Longer.

When you have a job of painting
done you don't expect to have it done
over again very soon. But to make
lasting job, several things must be
taken into consideration--the proper
Time to paint-the condition of the sur
lace-the kind of materials to use. etc.
All these matters are fully covered in
the specifications which can be had free
by writing National Lead Company,
1912 Trinity Building, New York.
and asking for Houseowner's Paint
Ing Outfit No. 40. The outfit also in
Guides book of color schemes for
both interior and exterior painting,
and a simple instrument for detecting
adulteration in the paint materials.
The outfit will solve many painting
problems for every houseowner.
Meantime while buying paint see that
every white lead key bears the famous
Dutch Boy Painter trademark, which
IS an absolute guarantee of purity and
quality. If your paint dealer cannot
supply you National Lead Company
will see that some one else will.

the following: One morning she re-

THE TWO SIDES OF HISTORY.
Some Pertinent Observations Made by
Writer Evidently Not Fond of
Subject.

History is running account of how
King Somebody-or-other either did or
did not get to certain place, which
nobody ever heard Of, before King
Somebody-else got there, from which
We are usually supposed to conclude
that Il would have made quite a differ
ence whether he did not not
Like nearly everything else, history
has two sides. The history Of the
Garden of Eden depends upon wheth-
er it is related by man or a wom-
an. The history of the American rev
olution reads quite different in Eng
lish books from the way it reads in
our own books. The history of the
civil war depends upon which side of
the Mason and Dixon line you happen
to be sitting when you write it.
History is bore, not only because
you are unacquainted with the people
who figure in it, but because it repeats
ttself-Life.
