the family present. The Humphries
were born in 1852, and were married
in st. Louis in January, 1874. Twelve
years later they came to Washington
and were among the first settlers in
what is now the city of Bellingham.
Travelling from Seattle in a side
wheel Sound steamer, they were un-
loaded into a flat-bottomed rowboat
in Bellingham Bay, but stuck on a
mud-flat many rods from shore. The
husband and wife discarded their
shoes and stockings and waded
ashore, where they staked out claim
on the shore of Lake Samish, and
homesteaded. Mr.. Humphries was

THE MEASLES EPIDEMIC

Not since 1920 have measles been
so prevalent in Washington as at the
present time The old fallacy that
child might just as we'll have meas
les "first as last" and "get it over
with" is fast disappearing. What was
once believed a harmless disease is
now known to have killed more chill
dren in the State of Washington dur
ing the last ten years than has
diphtheria and more than twice as
many as scarlet fever. 1t is no more
necessary for child to have meas
les than to have smallpox and to de-
liberately expose children to measles
is little short of crime.
Measles is one of the most con-
tagious diseases Of childhood; and it
is unfortunate that its most contag-
ious stage is before the eruption ap-
pears Usually about IA days after
exposure, and several days of cold
in -the-head symptoms, the eruption
is noticed on the inside of the mouth
and on the skin The skin rash then
appears, in small dark red spots, and
spreads rapidly all over the skin
and the mucous membranes as well.
The rash fades within week, but
leaves fine scaling not always no.
ticed. The patient should remain in
bed and be kept warm for at least
week Good ventilation is import
ant. Children who have symptoms
of cold, running nose, watery eyes,
sneezing, should not be permitted to
mingle with other children until the
nature of the ailment is determined.
All disch; rges from the eyes, nose,
throat and mouth should be received
on pieces of soft cloth and immedi-
ately burned.
A large number of deaths result
indirectly from measles, that is,
deaths attributed to after-effects Of
measles, such as broncho-pneumonia
eye and middle-ear infections, dis
eases of the kidneys, etc. An at
tack of measles so lowers childs
resistance that he is rendered more
susceptible to other diseases.
Measles is serious and frequently
fatal disease.

MAKING LIQUID AIR

Radio and liquid air at first glance
would seem to bear no relation one
to the other. Very few, If any, Of
those who sit 80 placidly before their
radio receiving sets in the evenings
realize what an important part liquid
air plays in radio. In its manufac-
ture OF vacuum tubes, the Bell Sys-
tenn Laboratories of the Western
Electric Company use $50 quarts Of
liquid air daily, which makes neces-
sary the largest liquefying plant in
New York City.
To make good vacuum tube it is
necessary to draw out as much of the
gas as possible-the more that is
pumped out the better the tube. Re-
moving all but very small amount Of
gas prevents the electrons released
from the fllament from coming in
contact with particles of gas, thereby
upsetting the neat calculations of the
radio engineers and wrecking the dis
position of the user.
The pumping of vacuum tube is
very delicate process and employs
what might seem to the untutored OBJ
server a labyrinth of glass tubing.
But every inch and every crook has
its purpose. A part of this system is
composed of a type of glass pump
using mercury vapor as pumping
agent 1t is also provided with a mer-
curry trap inserted in the system be-
tween the mercury pump and the
tubes being exhausted. This trap is
surrounded by liquid air which con-
denses the mercury vapor, freezing it
to the walls of the trap as moisture
is frozen on our window panes in
winter time.
Liquid air is one of the coolest
things known. 1t never gets warmer
than -312 degrees Fahrenheit below
zeoo. If you put beaker full on a
cake of ice, the liquid air would boil
briskly, because the ice, being at say
80 degrees, is quite hot as compared
with the liquid air at 312 degrees. On
the other hand, a piece of steel wool,
saturated with liquid air, will burn
briskly If lighted with a match. A
piece of carbon if heated to red
heat and placed in vessel containing
liquid air will become white hot about
5000 degrees Fahrenheit, while the
outside of the vessel will be too cold
to hold in the hand. If wool were to
be saturated with liquid air and con-
fined it would prove more powerful
explosive than dynamite.
In their liquid air plant the air is
first compressed to 5000 pounds pres
sure per square inch by four-stage air
compressors. The pressure of the
successive stages is so, 175, 910 and
Coulee City dispatch. [volume] (Coulee City, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-01-25

5000 pounds per square inch. AS the
temperature of the air is increased
considerably in compression 1t is then
passed through two cooling tanks in
which the air passes through small
copper coils which are water-cooled.
The air must be purified before it
passes through the liquifier, as i'm
purities would CONCEAL in that proc
ess at much higher temperatures than
the liquid air, thereby stopping up
the passages. The air is accordingly
passed through a series of purifying
bottles. The first contains filter
which removes any oil OF other for
eign matter which may be suspended
in the air. 1t then flows through two
bottles containing caustic soda, which
eliminates carbon dioxide. The next
Coulee City dispatch. [volume] (Coulee City, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-01-25

bottle contains water-free granular
calcium chloride and this removes
moisture from the air. Having
reached the proper state Of purifca-
tion it then passes into the liquefier
which is contained In tank packed
with sheeps-wool as an insulator to
keep the heat of the room. The air
then passes through number OF
coils Of copper tubing and finally is
let out into the tank where it is di-
rected against the coils through which
it has just come. This reduces the
temperature of the incoming air until
it finally gets down to liquefying tenn
perature.

PACKING BUSINESS is
SOUND, SAYS WILSON

The packing business, says Thomas
E. Wilson, the packer, is in funda-
mentally sound position and the COM
panies should end 1923 with fair earn
ings. There are some problems in the
packing business today just as in
other industries, but they are being
solved in satisfactory manner. The
fundamental condition of the packing
companies is stable, and that is the
main thing to be considered.
Raw material costs are much lower
and selling price levels which show
| declines from peak prices ranging
from 20 to more than 10 per cent,
has resulted III an increased con-
sumptive demand, especially because
of the full employment of labor in all
Industrial centers. Labor shortage
is not serious factor in the packing
industry
Meat production during the year
was the greatest in the history of the
nation and will exceed the year 1922
probably by one and one-half billion
pounds, owing largely to the increase
of pork production through the buy
ing and handling of nearly ten million
more hogs than last year. There has
been a little overproduction of hogs
and cattle but the demand for meat
products has been we'll maintained
despite the vast numbers of livestock
that have come to market and the
production is moving rapidly into
trade and consumptive channels both
here and in Europe.
Foreign trade has been good. Eu
rope will have bought this year from
80 to SO per cent more meats and fats
than in 1922. Germany has been a
heavy buyer of lard, fats and other
pork products and England has been
pretty fair buyer both for lard and
meats. Considerable activity has
been shown on the Continent, so that
despite unsettled and unfavorable
conditions export trade has been
showing improvement and we look for
it to be sustained during 1924.
| The meat industry is a fair barom-
eter of general business conditions.
When wages are good and labor well
employed the effect is very noticeable
in the sale Of our products. The in
creasing demand today, therefore, in
dicates that the prosperity of the
country will be maintained during the
coming year.
The wealth of this country enipha-
sizes that America herself can enjoy
exceptional prosperity, notwithstand-
ing the unsettled conditions in Eu-
rope, which affairs, I think, will work
out ultimately Not only is labor
more efficient, but modernized meth
DDS of manufacture and agriculture
tell of business strides this country
enjoys. Agriculture, transportation
and industry can prosper together but
not at each others expense. We all
realize today more than ever before
that good prices, good wages and
profitable business can only exist
where there is square deal for all,
The wholesomeness Of general con-
ditions throughout the country was
never better and in my opinion, war
rants a continued steady and orderly
activity in all industrial pursuits for
the coming year.
