Now no streams of smoke is pouring

that they must all be members OF

visitor is from Illinois and is John
Worker. He went down the street

here is the way he was greeted:
Hello. BILL"
"Howdy. Bill" and other such sal
utations, and had he not been wise
to why it was. naturally he would
have believed that all were Elks and
that they were friendly bunch. It
is this way: John is a brother of
Bill Worker. and the two look al
mcst as much alike as two peas in a
pod. and everyone who met John
thought 1t was Bill and knowing Bill
as they do they spoke without the
knowledge that they were speaking
to a stranger from a far-away state
who had never been here before. and
that's partly why they were so friend
ly and spoke by using the first name.

Water Supply for
The Farm Homes
BY MARIAN M. HAYNES
Colorado Agricultural College

One of the most common methods
of obtaining running water is by
means of the elevated tank. This
system may be used with shallow
or deep well. A force pump or gaso-
line engine is necessary. The tank is
usually galvanized iron (Which is
better than WOODY is located on an
elevated tower outside. in the attic
of the house, or in the barn loft. A.
disadvantage of the elevated tank is
that the water becomes warm and
stale in summer All pipes above
ground should be wrapped with bur-
lep rags or tar paper, then surround
cd by box at least 6 inches square
so the space between the pipe and
box may be filled with shavings, saw
dust, excelsior, straw.
The packing should be kept dry
and should not be packed solid be-
cause dead air spaces are necessary
to prevent the pipe from freezing
Some of the towers which support
water storage tanks are enclosed
giving some room for storage below
