The old historic Raycraft hotel in
Genoa is undergoing repairs and
among them is the rebuilding of
the porch in front of the building,
says the Carson News. The turning
over of the planks and the mingling
OF modern lumber with the planks
which we're hewed in the early days
OF the territory has caused the old
timers OF the section to grumble at
the revolution of time and many are
the stories told of the old hotel and
the men who were its visitors in the
days when the state was being formed
from a territory and the territory
had been carved from the wilderness.

within the confines of the state were
destroyed by fire several years ago

PRESENT WELL Will
NOT Be ABANDONED

Some persons are fearful that II
the LIGHT and water plant is moved
to the new site the present well may
be lost to the city. This is a mis-
take. 1t is positively provided that
this well will always be retained by
the city, and it can be operated more
conveniently and economically from
the new site than from the present
one
AS a matter of fact, while the
present water supply is excellent, the
bond trustees believe, in the light of
past experience, that even better wa
ter may be had from the new well
At depth of 500 feet the water
showed lesser proportion of objec-
tionable elements than when the
present depth of 6i9 feet was
reached. If this condition should
develop again, as is very probable.
the water from the new well will be
used. but the old well will always
be ready for use, two wells being
very desirable lin any event, and in
deed almost absolutely necessary.

BIG Saving IN

To explain the statement that
great saving in operating expenses
will be gained by putting the light
and water plant on the proposed new
site, it should be understood that
condensing plant will be part OF
the new equipment, thus adding to
it's efficiency and economical opera
ton. Heretofore condensation has
not entered into the operations oil
the plant.
Each hour the new plant is in OPP
Grafton will involve the lifting OF
200 900 pounds of water for cooling
purposes. If the old site were to be
used, this immense volume of water
would have to be lifted seventeen
feet higher than If the plant is
placed on the new site. When it is
figured that throughout the years a
saving of a lift of 100000 pounds of
water seventeen feet may be effected
every hour, it would seem that no
other argument in favor of the new
site is necessary.
