The actual movement OF trade IS
helped by the tendency TO declining
prices. which is manifest, but this Is
a movement which is susceptible Of a
twofold Interpretation. The great basic
industries. the iron and steel and the

PLANT is NOT CARRIED OUT.

Consumers of city water and the
public in general are wondering why
the movement for softening the city
water has been shelved or abamdo0ed.
There is 10 question of the FEAST
bliity CT the plan, as the same thing
is being done in both public and pri-
vate water plants all over the coun-
try. Further, there can be NO doubt
that softenllg the water will increase
It's consumption by those now using
IL and that many others will be in
duced thereby to take the water.
The cost of installing the water
softening apparatus is placed at
$1,000, or not to exceed $4,000 and
this is comparatively small, sum
wnen the benefits to be derived are
considered, for the water could then
l)e used for a variety of purposes
10 which it Is not at present suit
able and would also be improved for
thinking purposes. Lime and soda,
which are used in the softening pro-
cess, are both cheap chemicals and
alter the installation of the plant the
cost OF softening the water will
amount to only one and a half cents
per 1000 gallons.
Water thus softened is said to be
superior even to rain water and
could he used for all purposes for
which rain water is considered pre-
ferable to hard water.
1t is very probable that, with the
water softened, the F. E. G. Ry.
would make use OF it for their en-
sines and this large consumption
would 80 far to supporting the change
and paying off the cost of installing
the plant.
| T. A. Snider, of Cincinnati, Ohio,
| who owns the beautiful group of
/ bungalows in the southern part of
the city, is greatly interested in
this que: ton, as are also a number
| is strong talk of calling a meeting
of Daytona's citizens to urge that
this Improvement, which lis really a
necessity, be carried through to com,
i pletion a., soon as possible. Some
| means can certainly be devised to
obtain the funds necessary for the
work.
| Another matter that appeals to the
average citizen is the proposed
change Of rules, whereby the water
rate would be based on the mainte-
nance charge with additional charge
for the water actually used, which
would be more equitable than the
plan now used, permitting small con
sumers to put in city water, who now
feel unable to do So
1t is figured that a maintenance
charge of $500 with a rate of ten
cents per 1000 gallons would return
about the same revenue as the rate
row prevailing.
The adoption of both these feat
ures would seem good policy, as
both are inducements to the large
consumption of city water George

GAS STOVE ECONOMY

The gas stove need not cause alarm
ing bills if carefully managed. All de-
pends upon the watchfulness of the
cook.
Burners should not be lighted until
lust ready for use. and should be
turned down as soon as the article
cooking is at boiling point
Eliminate the giant burner as far as
possible. and keep things hot on the
simmerer rather than with the large
burners turned low.
Have composite utensils that fit on
one burner \ small oven over one
burner saves gas. and if a sheet iron
is made to fit over the top of the gas
stove it can be heated enough to cook
a whole dinner by lighting one gas
