ELECTRIC FANS PROVE
GOOD FLY CHASERS

To secure the benefit of ventilation
without draught is one of the hot
weather problems The electric fan
ofrers an easy method of renewing
the air and dirfusing breezes through
the rooms. Portable. and easy to
handle, the fan can be used upon a
desk or a shelf to freshen the air; II
quickly removes smoke and dust and
fans out flies.
The common housefly is the cost
Hest insect in America. The fan Is
OF great assistance in lighting flies.
Especially is this true where food is

EVEN HEN COOPS NOW

why should electricity limit itself TO
tightening the task of the housewife
and forget the faithful fowl that sup
plies one OF the principal items on
the breakfast table?
The answer is-it doesn't.
No longer need the d&eller OF the
chicken yard devote three weeks OF
time that might more profitably be
employed in laying eggs to the work
of Matching out an uncertain number
OF chickens. Electricity. in the form
of an electrically heated incubator,
will do IT.
Nor need she spend hours OF fussy
cluCking trying to shelter an uneasy
wriggling lot of feathered youngsters
under two small wings. An electric
brooder will take care OF them.
1t is claimed that by the use of cleo
trically heated incubators much
larger percentage of eggs are Matched
than by the use OF ordinary incubators,
and that the chicks are much larger
and stronger
Electricity is also used to light
chicken coops to increase the number
Of eggs laid. 1t Is claimed this gives
excellent results.

Only Exclusively Wholesale
Electrical Co. Established
Here 20 Years Ago.

The Doubleday Electric Com
pany. 715 Twelfth street northwest,
celebrated "Twenty-eight Years of
Reliable Electrical Service" last
week. Established in Washington
in May, 1898, this firm is one Of
the oldest and best known. 1t
marked its birthday by lowering
prices.
The officers of the company are
c. Phillips Hill, president; @. Brown
Hill, vice president and treasurer;
q. Frank Slocum, secretary, and j.
w. Reese. manager.
This Is known as "Washington's
only exclusive wholesale electrical
supply house." and in inviting Gus
toners to participate in the birth
day anniversary benefits. Manager
Reese said
I'VE believe that our policy of
Wholesale only meets with the
general approval OF the electrical
contractor-dea and that this as
on either retail sales of appliances
or construction work is big ad-
vantage to our patrons. This policy,
which we believe has done great
deal toward achieving closer coop
Grafton between us and our patrons,
will be continued
A large number of friends of tho
members of the firm called during
twenty eighth anniversary week to
felicitate them on their success.

INFANT INDUSTRY

FOR TRADE GUAGE
Sales Of Electrical Goods Now
Best Indication of Pulse
of Prosperity.

The pulse OF the nations pros
perity has for years been gagged
with considerable accuracy by the
business situation In the iron and
steel industry but now that the
electrical industry so far outrivals
Il and all other lines OF Industrial
endeavor, both in money invested
and in value of output, the business
thermometer should be electrical. for
financial statistics of leaders in the
electrical industry are better indica-
lions of the condition of affairs a,
large.
Last year, three great electrical
manufacturing concerns consum-
mated sales to an aggregate valua-
ton of nearly two-thirds OF billion
dollars. a gain of nearly 20 per
cent over the record for 1919. This
ts Indicative of dominant Industrial
conditions last year. but In itself
would give little promise for the
current year IL IL were not for the
fact that these same concerns had
unified orders on their books at
the commencement of the year
amounting in value TO 43h per cent
OF all business contaminated last
year and 81 per cent of that of the
year before.
The value OF exports are also
generally accepted as an indication
OF national prosperity and in this
branch OF commerce the electrical
industry shines. The value OF cleo
trical products shipped during the
first month of the current year ex-
ceeded that of the corresponding
month OF last year by 1o7 per cent
and the value of electrical exports
for the first two months bettered
the mark set In 1920 by 124 per cent.
