BETTER ROADS ASSURED.
RESIDENTS OF LAKE COUNTY
AWAIT WITH INTEREST Ell
FECTS OF NEW LAW.

Even If the full mileage of grading
and graveling of roads outlined here
is not completed during the coming
spring and summer, residents of the
county have the assurance that rural
highways, such as they are. will be
kept in better condition than ever
before.
Thanks to a state law passed last
year, all main roads, including mail
roads, must be dragged and put into
shape following every rain storm or
when dragging for any reason may be
necessary for the Improvement of the
thoroughfares.
1t is provided that the trustees of
all townships must, at their March
meetings, let contracts for dragging
their roads within the respective
townships. In the letting of the con
tracts, preference is to be given TO
persons occupying land i'm close prox-
unity TO the roads to be maintained.
The act st%ipulates that the dragging,
which may be done with any road or
split-log drag. must be started when
the earth is in condition to accom-
plish the best results.
In case township trustees fail to
let the contract for the dragging OF
roads. any owner or occupant of land
abutting on the roads may serve writ
ten notice on the chairman of the
board that he has the right. under
the law, to drag the highways and
receive pay. lie shall then have the
right to drag the roads and to con
tinue to drag them throughout the
year. Should more than n tenant
serve notice on the chairman of tho
board, the one whose notice is first
received shall be given the prefer
ence.
The person dragging the roads is
entitled to be paid a reasonable value
for his work, not to exceed 40 pei
cent of the road tax levy.
AS next summer will be the first
time it has been necessary in South
Dakota to drag rural roads. the ef.
fects of the new law will be watched
with considerable interest by all driv.
ers of motors and horse drawn We.
hicles, it is believed by the better
road advocates.

FURNACE EXPLOSIONS
SIOUX FALLS PLUMBING IN
SPECTOR SMITH INNESTI-
GATES CAUSE OF VAN
DEMARkfS DEATH.

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader. After
a thorough investigation of the Van
Denmark house at Alexandria, which
was wrecked at the time Of the fur
mace ~range-boiler explosion there re-
Gently that resulted in the death OF
the late Senator VanDemark, city
Plumbing Inspector Clifford +. Smith
today, in response TO many inquiries
he has received, gave out the follow
ing statement regarding the element
of danger in water-heating systems
and methods to be adopted 10 avoid
accident:
In previous newspaper reports, >
says Inspector Smith. lit has been
stated that the explosion at AleXan-
dria was the result of a hot water
furnace blowing up; but upon in
vestigation it was found that it was
an ordinary 30-gallon range boiler in
the basement, connected with a hot
air furnace and heated by means OF q
one-inch coil and supplied Aith els
tern water by a water lift connected
to another 30-gallon compression
tank, ordinarily known as a pres
sure system 1t was installed the
same as nearly every other compress
sion system job is installed, without
a relief valve. The plumbing there
was supposedly according to plumb
ing rules, not at fault, but was con
nected in the same way that nearly
every job here in Sioux Falls Is con-
neeted. There are probably more
than 1000 range boilers connected
that way in the city.
"All plumbers know that a range
boiler connected to a pressure sys-
tenn is dangerous and should lave a
relief valve. But such range boilers
are tested to 200 pounds, and very
seldom ever do explode, because the
coil generally breaks first or the gas
kets blow out and in that way relieve
the steam pressure on the tank. Aft
er looking at the results of the ex
plosion at Alexandria and other min
or explosions from the same cause, ]
am satisfied that every compression
job should have a relief valve; then,
in case the furnace fire is forgotten
or it was not noticed that the water
In the tank was boiling, the valve

would automatically relieve the pres
sure.
Although the Alexandria case had
tragic results. it really should not
brighten people, as there is usually
very little danger. In the first place,
very few boilers v e get hot enough
to boil. even with a heavy fire and
the expansion is relieved by the com
preston tank. In the second place,
the boiler will always make a lot of
noise when the water is boiling. So
the expansion can be relieved by
opening a hot water faucet and leap-
ing it open until the steam has stop
ped coming. Third, about 999 times
out of 1000, ONE gasket will blow
out or the coil will break before a
serious explosion occurs.
There is no danger at all from
range boilers connected with the city
waterworks system, unless the sup
ply pipe happens to freeze or is
choked in some way, because the
heavy pressure in the boiler expands
back into the city water main. But,
ven in doing that. it is likely tC
burn out or spoil the water meter
So with city water, too, it is a better
plan to draw the hot water off. Even
if a whole boilerful of water is drawn
off to get the water in the tank cooled
il would cost less than l cent, while
a repair bill on the meter would be
an expense of not less than SO TO 81

LOCAL TEAMS LOSE
LARGE CROWD SEES TWO FAST.
CLEAN BASKET BALL GAMES
AT NORMAL GYM.

Both the Madison Normal and the
Madison high school basket ball
teams lost their games, played last
night in the gymnasium of the State
Normal school. Springfield won over
the Normal by a score of 23 TO Is,
and the Sioux Falls high school toss
ers plucked a 40 to 8 victory from
the local high school.
Both contests We're clean through
out, and the coaches Of the local
teams freely admitted hat the best
squads won. The Springfield players
we're exceedingly lucky in their long
shots. The Normal players seemed to
outpass their opponents, but were un-
able to penetrate the defense for the
winning scores.
As 10 the high school game, the re
suit was never in doubt. 1t was the
first game in which the local team
has engaged this year, and il was the
very first regular basket ball contest
OF any kind i'm which one of the locals
had ever played. The visitors were
not only good players, but were well
seasoned, having engaged in six
league contests this winter.
Coach Dyer said that despite the
one-sided score, the result was. i'm a
measure. encouraging. As his players
have been without the use of a gym
nasium, il was next to impossible for
them TO get into any kind of eondi-
ton early i'm the season. Previous to
the game, they had had only three
regular practices. As sixteen league
games remain 10 be played by the
high school. Coach Dyer believes
there is ample time for his boys TO
make a creditable showing before the
close of the season.
The lineup Of the local teams was
as follows: High School-O. Tom
