Central Heating
May Be Installed
r. F. Wherland Receives EncOur-
agement for New Scheme of
Community Heating
LOCO DOLLARS PLEDGED
Redwood Falls May Have Sys-
TEN of Heating Which Is
Popular Elsewhere

If the public is wiling to give
its support a new enterprise in
the form of central heating
plant may be operating before
another winter. r. F. Wherland,
the promoter Of the plan, has
circulated petition among a few
of the business houses and in
three hours had signatures guar
anteed a thousand dollars in pat
ronage should the plant be in
stalled. These signatures and
amounts are used as a basis up
on which it shall be determined
whether sufficient patronage can
be obtained to warrant operat-
ing central heating plant. The
subscriber is asked to place OPP
posite his name the amount that
it is costing him to operate his
own heating plant.
Many cities smaller than Red
wood Falls are being heated in
this way and the results are both
satisfactory and economical.
Springfield has recently turned
on heat furnished by such a
plant and it has proven very sat-
isfactory SO far.
The steam necessary to heat
the buildings will be measured
by meters and each patron will
pay for just what he uses. When
proper rates can be secured it is
less expensive than operating an
individual plant, besides saving
all the work of attending to in
diyidual plants. All that is nee
essary with the proposed sys-
tenn is to open a valve and the
heat is there. Those who al
ready have steam plants in oper-
alton will have the steam piped
to their buildings and attached
to their plants.
Mr.. Wherland has secured an
option on a centrally located lot
and if the project meets with
sufficient encouragement the
plant will be installed during the
summer of 1916.

the road near the August Ha-

WOMEN OF DIXIE LAND

Louise Closer Hale in Harpers Maya
zine.
There is no muzzle to spontaneity in
the south. l think they are more like
the French than any other people.
And the women are like French
women One doubts if they have the
executive ability of the Gallo woman,
but then no other race possesses that. I
can remember the impoverished southern
ladies who came up north to visit us
when I was a little GIRL and that oft re-
peated phrase, "Befo, the wah I nevah
buttoned nah shoes" They probably
didn't, but 1.-The thing is as friend of
mine says, they did button them when
they had to.
With the self-denial which the "frivol-
OTIS French woman is showing now, the
frivolous southerner did without serv-
ants to button shoes-and shoes-and, as
time went on, buttons. In the terrible
days of reconstruction when a Lincoln
was so needed, they continued to per-
NIT themselves no luxuries beyond the
luxury of talking of the past. Even to
their own undoing they held to fierce
partisanship, which, in some heroic way
rendered a meal a mere fashion to be
done away with, like an extra flounce
on a gown.

THE SHORTAGE OF PAPER

and here it would seem that publishers
out of the desire to run into bankruptcy
are expected, regardless of the price Of
the raw materials, not to advance tbs
price of their papers nor their advertising
rates In any other line of business tbs
man who follows this policy would 60
into well-deserved bankruptcy, and the
business world would say that he justly
deserved his fate for his lack of business
sense. Possibly the newspapers of the
country will soon recognize the situation
and meet it in exactly the same way
that other producing interests have to
meet the advanced cost of labor ano
materials, and if business men of good
sound, common sense will study the situa'
ton, they will recognize the NJ eessity
of meeting this problem as other manu-
facturers meet advancing costs of raw
materials
The Importance of the publishing In
dustry is shown in the fact that the value
of the products of the newspaper and pc
riodical, book and job printing INDUSTRY
of the country for 1914. according to thu
census reports, amounted to $50, Ill, Z
gain of 22.3 per cent over the output fol
1909.
The amount of money expended fol

was $255 ,954,062. AS large as these adver1
Using figures are, they are smaller thar
they should be. The country is only
beginning to appreciate the creative value
of advertising. Manufacturers, meri
chants, railroads, towns and cities are al
beginning to wake up to the fact tina
the mightiest power available for thu
development of business is advertising
The more thoroughly this is appreciated
the larger will be the prosperity OF the
country.
