CITY MAY HAVE
THE FIRE ALARMS

Tomorrow night the city council
may decide that Grand Junction
shall have an up-to-date and splen-
did general fire alarm system-some-
thing that Grand Junction has al
ways badly needed.
A. f. Loomis, representing the
Electrical Automatic Appliance Com
pany of Denver. which is putting out
a new electrical fire alarm system
that is attracting attention through
out the west and which is proving to
be a great success, has been in the
city for several days comforting with
J Fire Chief Rogers and members of
the city council. and all who have
| had the system demonstrated TO them
have been highly pleased and most
favorably impressed with its virtues
and merits.
Mr.. Loomis proposes to furnish the
city with 40 street alarm boxes, con-
nected with the fire station and oper
ating a remarkable automatic fire
alarm whistle which gives forth g
blast that may be heard a mile. The
construction and arrangements of tho
alarm boxes, zoe whistle, the system
of quickly notifying the department
from which alarm box the report is
sent in. and the many other splendid
features and devices that make up
the system, indicate that the system
has been carefully worked out and
that it is a success there can be no
doubt.
The company does not sell sys-
TEN, but ii rents the alarm boxes,
etc, to the city. and the company
itself makes monthly tests of the
alarms and keeps everything in tip
top shape. The system that would
afford Grand Junction far better fire
protection than it has ever had. can
be installed at very reasonable fig
ure. The 40 alarm boxes and other
parts of the system can be secured
at monthly rental of $3.50, and,
in view of the large number of boxes
taken and the prospects for the need
of more as the city grows, a small
reduction will be made from these
figures. At the end of five years the
city will have the privilege of buy
ing the system, If it so desires. and
half of the rental paid out will be
applied on the purchase price.
There are many other commenda-
BILE features about the system.
The company is also prepared to
install. on the monthly rental basis.
automatic thermostatic alarms in pri-
vate residences and business houses,
and these remarkable appliances are
so arranged that they turn in an
alarm the moment room reaches an
abnormally heated state of tempera-
ture.
This system of general fire alarms
has just been installed in Telluride
and Louisville, Colo, and in portions
of Denver. and is commended by all
who know of its workings.
Mr.. Loomis will go before the
council with his proposition tomor-
row evening.

Abundant support to meet all of
their requirements is being supplied

boilermakers, machinists and black

An appeal for strike funds sent out
by the American Federation of Labor

local men are receiving remittances
constantly from the secretary of the
federation. When the strike was call
ed last March 1000 men were in

land not now included in the present
systems. The preliminary plans are
now under construction by the
| board of consulting engineers and as
soon as finally adopted actual con-
| struction will begin Immediately.
1t requires no particular gift of
| acument to predict that when the
WORKS are completed this valley will
become one of the nations show
places. The farms will be small in
| area, making compact settlement. In
tensive agriculture will be extended,
bringing larger acreage in orchards
| Of high priced fruits and insuring
nigh order of intelligence among the
land owners. With cheap water
power right at hand the trolley lines
will be extended to all parts of the
ALLEY, affording facilities for cheap
and ready marketing of all products.
There is no reason why farm life here
will not ultimately become more
nearly suburban than rural in char
acter The opportunity which exists
here for making the farmers life at
tractive will not be overlooked. We
may confidently look for a citified
country. Trolley lines will bring the
city and the country together. Con-
stant contact and association with his
neighbors will bring about co-opera-
tion among the farmers both in pro-
ducing and marketing of farm pro-
ducts. The individualism which char
acterizes the average farmer and
which is in no samll degree respon-
sible for his narrow and monotonous
life will have no place here.
This is not a picture of fancy. 1t
is not "A dream of Utopia. Rather it
is the inevitable result of extensive
and scientific cultivation of small
farms. each occupied by it's owner
and family. That these conditions are
not ovedrawn is easily made manifest
by the growth of communities in
southern California long lines which
are comparable with those which
must necessarily follow in the future
development of Grand valley.
