A BATH ROOM FOR THE FARM


IN no wav is electricity serving the
farm family better than in making
possible modern up-to-date bath
room.
When water had to be pumped ard
carried by hand, when it had to be
heated on the kitchen stove, and when
tubs had to be gotten out especially

bath menat lot of disturbance and
muss. But electricity has done away
with all this. The small electric light
and power plants no win use on sc
many farms all over the country fur
nish plenty of power for the operation
of electric pumping systems. These
systems have been developed to such
great extent in the last few years,
that they are now almost entirely au-
tomato. Once installed, the pump,
driven by an electric motor and CON
trolled by pressure switch, keeps
water under pressure at faucets all
over the house. The water service thus
obtained is in reslt the same as that
enjoyed in the city. There are very
efficient heaters, too, which will heat
plenty of water for 4 bath in a half
hour or less. or which will keen tho

this means that any member Of the

a real tub at the mere turn of the

State health departments have for
many years urged the adoptiCl on the

thoroughly convinced of the value OF

After each application of the benzine
the stains should be brushed with a

Purposes May Result

hlbition enforcement appeared posi-
bility Friday night with the announce
ment by prohibition commissioner kram-
er that the issue of wholesale permits
in the future would be ''rigidly restrict
ed
Mr.. Kramer declared that the whole
sale traffic presented the greatest prob
lem with which enforcement officials
were confronted Wholesale dealers,
he asserted resorted to subterfuges
which perplexed government agents and
which made the dry law difficult to en-
force. This phase Of prohibition en-
forccment was said to have developed
consideration by officials Of the internal
revenue bureau Of a plan by which the
quantity dealer would be driven out of
business entirely and the liquor transfer
made direct from bonded warehouse to
retailer or consumer.
Although no decision has been reach
ga and none probably will be immediate
ly the approaching period when wholesale
licenses are re-issued for the next cal
cndar year is expected to bring the
question to head. Applications for
wholesale licenses must be in the hands
Of federal officials by October /, giving
