THE o QUESTION

Editor News
Last week the question as to whether
adobe should be permitted as a building
material in the business portion Of our
city was brought to the attention of
our citizens, by way of petition, which
received a good many signatures, though
/ doubt IL most of those who signed the
petition against their use realized what
they were doing. We talk of building
fire proof buildings. Don't they know
that adobe resists the heat better than
any other building material yet dis
coveredf II is far ahead of burnt
brick, which Is again better than stone
or cement, aa3 as resisting as even
fire clay. AS n proof of this let me
point to the old Spanish and Mexican
shelters, for the reduction Of gold
silver, lead and copper ores. No Other
substance, except IRE clay and the watel
jacket could Withstand such heat. Ever
today balls of adobe mud are used Il
plug the outlets Of the most modern
