lvered by Governor Ernest Lister,
who took for his subject, Good Cit

and effective plea for higher stand
ards and ideals among the citizenship
If tbe state. He asserted that these
standards and ideals must be ac-
ouired in the home and dwelt upon
the duty of parents to inculcate in
their children an appreciation of
their privileges and responsibilities

ECONOMY IN GAS AND COAL

How do you light the gas? There
is a right way and a wrong. Most
housekeepers turn on the gas full
force and then apply the match. The
result is slight explosion which
starts the meter checking up a few
extra turns. 1t means only few
cents each month, but you can save
them by holding the match to the
burner before turning on the gas and
then turning it on very slowly.
The gas range is often greatly
abused because of the ignorance of the
housewife. The gas should burn with
a blue flame. If the flame is red you
have too much air, and the mixer must
be adjusted The mixer, or air cham
Der, is found in the end of each pipe
next to the gas cocks. A pale yellow
flame means lack of air for proper
combustion. If you do not know how
to manipulate these mixers drop a
postal to your gas company. They will
usually be very glad to send man to
Imperial Valley press., 1914-01-17

instruct you regarding these things.
Keep the burners clean. If they are
clogged with grease you cannot have
good results. To clean the burners
remove them from the range and
place in boiling water, to which has
been added two tablespoons of wash
ing soda.
Do you know how to start fire in
the furnace or range and then main
tain it economically? Most housekeep
ers do not, says the Pictorial Review.
To start a fire, quantity of light
material or chips, etc, must be burn
ed until the chimney is heated. If the
drafts are right and smoke comes into
the room, brief wood fire must be
kept up until better draft is secured.
A good draft is necessary to save fuel.
/ When the wood is burning briskly,
add the coal little at time. Keep
it level and below the top of the fire
box of the range. When blue flame
appears close the direct draft, or
damper. Close the lower drafts and
open the lower draft. If necessary
open the lip at the front of the stove
above the frebox. The fire is now
checked off for the day at the least
possible expense of fuel. When need
ed for baking, etc, close the lip and
few moments until the desired heat is
obtained. Then close it again.
When more coal is needed, put on
only little at a time. Small size
chestnut is the most economical coal
for the range. Never allow the top Of
the range to get red hot. You can
neither cook nor bake as well, and
most of the fuel is going to sending
heat up the flue. More than that, a
red hot stove means a wearlng-out
stove.
Did you know that you can burn
ashes, either sifted or unsifted, and
burn them again and again until not a
particle of carbon remains? To do
this, remove all clinkers from the
ashes and sprinkle with water until
thoroughly moistened. After good
coal fire has been started these ashes
may be spread over the hot bed of
Imperial Valley press., 1914-01-17

Goals. They will hold the fire a long
time, giving out sufficiently steady
yhite heat.
In mild weather it is not necessary
to "shake down" the furnace fire. You
can economize on fuel and still have a
fire ready to start full blast should
the north wind begin to blow. With
the furnace poker rake down only
part of the ashes, forming a sort of
crater by poking out the ashes thor
oughly from the bottom and the top.
Into this "crater" put the fresh coal.
This is really a sort of furnace within
the larger one and holds the fire with
out using coal to heat the whole fur
mace.

short time. The small fire running

would require an addition to the pres
ent force allowed by Congress Of
about $4,000 men. Meanwhile, the
problem is becoming more difficult as
time goes on, because of the vessels
under construction which must short
ly be provided with crews. For in
stance, during the coming year two
battleships, the Oklahoma and Nevada,
will take their places with the feet
Each of these vessels will require a
complement of nearly a thousand men
each.
In regard to the material of the
navy-that is to say. ships and their
equipment, including guns, engines,
range finders, etc. matters are on the
whole in excellent shape. In a few
particulars, such as the lack of suffi-
cient torpedoes, there is room for
great improvement
THE department has received number
less inquiries in regard to its attitude on
the relative merits of battleships and sub
marines There can be, of course no fair
or exact comparison between the two
types of vessels, each of which has its
own sphere of usefulness. From the
purely technical point OF view of national
defense, submarines can probably be re-
lied upon to ward of an attack by a hos
tile feet upon the principal harbors Of
the continental coast line of the United
States, provided the submarines are at
the point of attack.
1T would be foolish to attempt to
prophesy what the future will bring
forth, but it is at the present time clear
that submarines have an undoubted
sphere Of Usefulness in harbor work and
within short distances Of the coast, and
that battleships are still the controlling
factor in any war in which the belliger-
ents are separated by great distances Of
water"

In regard TO the numbers OF the ofi-

one second-class cruiser, two third-class

three fuel ships, and two vessels Of spe-
cial type are in commission in reverse;
that is to say, they have on board only
from 3 per cent to 80 per cent of the
crews necessary to man them in case Of
war.
There also are six second-line battle
ships, one armored cruiser, one second
class cruiser, and fourteen torpedo boats
which are in the condition technically
called in ordinary These vessels are
manned by from 10 per cent to 20 per
cent OF their regular compliments, just
enough to prevent them from rusting to
