I. P. Riley, of Fargo, Did
Plumbing and Heating Work
Fargo Firm Gets One of the Most Difficult Jobs Of
Plumbing, Heating and Wiring Ever Attempted
in State. Carloads of Material Were Used.

The contract for the plumbing, heat
Ing and wiring was let to T. p. Riley
OF this city, and 1t ID one Of the most
| difficult jobs ever contracted In the
state of North Dakota. The nature OF
the chemicals that run from the var
ious laboratory tables through the
pipes made 1t absolutely necessary that
some other substance except iron be
used for drainage purposes, and in
order to complete the building is toys
Of the best lead had to be used for
service in the waste pipe. In fact two
distinct and separate plumbing Jobs
were necessary in order to make 1t
lasting. Certain chemicals would de-
stroy the iron pipes within q few
weeks. and it was necessary to run
them through lead-pipe ducts.
The one thing that is the most up
to-date feature OF the b'lildiag is the
automatic water heater. This heater
Is Humphrey Thermal Automatic
heater. and whenever hot water is
drawn at any OF the faucets in the
building gas automatic heater heats
the same amount Of water in the heat
er. and from there 1t Is forced through
the pipes. Just at the side Of the auto
matte heater il a large tank. in which.
If necessary. can be stored 500 gallons
OF hot water which can be used at any
time.
In each laboratory table Ia hot and
cold water faucets, as well as various
other appliances. Each one OF which
required special preparation on the
part Of the plumber in order to get
them In the exact position. for their
proper manipulation by the student

In placing this job Of plumbing Mr..
Riley used . carloads OF iron pipe, II

and the specifications called for an alb

bids were opened 1t was found that
this firm was the lowest and the best
bidder, and they were awarded the
contract by the state. Some idea of
the magnitude Of his task in figuring
out the construction OF a building this
size can be gained from the fact that in
the building 1t was necessary TO use 1876
carloads Of sand and gravel; SO car
loads Of inside brick; IL carloads Of
