ton with a substantial body of hot
flu l. Common salt, thoroughly
dried, is then thrown or sprinkled
onto the incandescent fuel bed in
a quantity. depending entirely on
the size of the furnace. In the
case of a house heating furnace,
one pound at a time is ample. In
the case of large power plant
boiler, four or FIVE scoops full NAV
be required The hampers are
kept open so as to maintain the
furnace temperature and the salt
is allowed to remain until the fumes
have entirely disappeared.
Immediately upon charging the
salt, the furnace becomes filled with
dense white fumes which may re-
quire as much as half an hour to
entirely disappear. If results are,
not secured on the first application,
it should be repeated as many times
as necessary.
Once the heating surface is thor
oughly cleaned small applica-
ton every few days is usually
sufficient to keep it so.
Everyone using soft coal is urged
by the administration to use this
simple and cheap pro-
cess of getting rid of the SCOT,

boilers, thus saving large amounts
Of coal, preventing fires from Chin

at the close of the last fiscal year
Land, buildings and personal
property of the fair are valued at
$2,561, 543.38, an increase in valu-
alton of $75,938.57 over that of
1921. The increase is due to the
re-investment of profits in perman-
ent improvements, and additions to
the fair grounds plant. -,
at outside gates, grandstand and
horse show were $292.559.5O. a de-
crease of $19,258.50 froal 1921.
The attendance at the outside gates
was 393,444, a decrease of 37,461
under that of the preceding year.
The attendance in the grandstand
showed an increase of 4,7O3 over
the previous year, the total being
1926.
A new record for exhibitors was
made, 4,720 participating, which
was 314 more than a year ago.
This increase was partly accounted
for by the greater number of boys
and girls who participated in the
contests in the new Boys and Girls
Club Work building, more than
500 children being present.
But for the excessive heat the
early part of the fair, especially
Labor day, the attendance record
of 1921 would have. been exceeded,
Mr.. Garfield pointed out. Despite
the adverse weather and other con-
ditions that initiated against it's
success, the fair shows greater
profit for the year than any other
fair held in the United States,
thereby retaining it's title of "The
Worlds Greatest State Fair"

ELY TEAM WINS
GAME SATURDAY.
AURORA BASKETBALL SHOOT
ERS BADLY DEFEATED IN
WELL-PLAYED GAME.

On a score of 81 to 13, the Ely
boys slipped one over on Aurora
Saturday evening in fast game
of basketball on the local floor.
The visitors did not readily recOv-
er from their surprise as in years
past the Aurora team has always
been the jinx for the Ely boys and
invariably went home with the
bacon. Jack Gianotti refereed the
game in his usual efficient manner.
Ely scored the first basket,
Aurora following soon after with a
basket. Joe Dunclovich made five
out of six free throws for Aurora
in the first half while Ely missed
their one free throw. The first
half ended II to 10 in favor of
Aurora.
While the first half was fast,
the second period was faster with
Ely's defense almost perfect Aurora
getting only one field basket this
period. The local boys acquitted
themselves with honor. Murn
seemed to be everywhere and was
in on the scoring with three long
shots to his credit. Harold Chinn
played his first game at the for
Wdiu pOSltlOh anu SoluC thlOuSA
with four field baskets. Lindbeck
maintained the pace he set in the
first game being in on every play
and scoring three field baskets
Dinsmore took care of the center
position and saw to it that Ely had
the ball right off the jump. Skala
played his best game and it was
largely due to his defense that
Aurora was held to but four field
baskets during the entire game.
Ely's team work was good and their
passing showed up above that of
Aurora, who had to resort to long
shots the larger part of the time.
The Aurora team was composed of
the following:
