WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS
 GUARD SUPPLY
R. F. Lewis Reports to City Authorities on Work
 Being Done

For both ordinary and emer- gency needs, Juneau is assured of an adequate water supply at all times, according to formal re- port that was submitted to the city authorities by R. F. Lewis President of the Juneau Water Company, just before his depart ure late last week for his home in California. He warns residents however, against waste of water during cold periods in the winter when natural supply is curtailed by weather conditions.
 MT. Lewis report follows:
 When in Juneau last March l stated that certain improvements and changes would be made ill the water system of the Juneau Water Company, to Insure better service during periods of low wa ter. The work as proposed has, at this date, progressed as fol- lows:
 Fire Reserve Tank
 q. Fire reserve tank thoroughly repaired by G. E. Krause, who did an excellent piece of work. Since completion two tests have been made. One by MT. Krause. The second test lasted eight days from August 5 to August 13. Water in the service tank, was kept at a lower level than in the fire tank. In eight days the water in the fire tank fell between A and F inch. No leakage August 13 the fire tank connected with an electrically driven pump, taking its supply di- rect from the supply line coming from springs on Gold Creek. The pump was tested. It raised water in the tank one inch in about } minutes, or at the rate of one foot per hour. This NSl insure the tank being kept full at all times suggest that the Fire Chief ex- anime the fire tank at frequent intervals during cold weather.
 "2. I have made examination to locate leaks. Several small leaks in service pipes have been stopped An August II I made a personal examination of conditions under the store of the Juneau-Young Hardware Company. There was no water coming out of the ground Our men are now engaged in re- placing lines along the water front, and looking for additional leaks. This work will be con | tinued. New Mains Laid
 "3. New mains have been laio as follows.
 "(a) Six inch iron, Third and Seward to Fourth, and thence, East on Fourth to Franklin, and ur Franklin 125 feet to low pressure reservoir. This line replaces the old wooden pipe. "(b) Eight inch iron 50 feet at Second and Seward to replace old line not renewed when new pipe was laid on balance of the block to Front Street.
 "(c) Ten inch cast iron from Second and Seward to Gold, anc up Gold to Fourth about 1000 feet with all new service pipes. This renewal has done away with con. siderable leakage.
 "(d) Four inch iron west or Eighth Street 325 feet from Cal. houn Avenue. This line is a by pass, to supply Casey-Shattucl Addition independently from Dis tin and Calhoun Avenue neigh borhood.

Uncle Sam FroWns on
Misleading Labels

1--WE see advertised quite commonly
these days different types Of bread,
and we see what seem to me to be
some rather exaggerated claims made
for them," says DR.. P. B. Dunbar, as
sistant chief of the Federal Food and
Drug Administration.
Bread, in common with scores of
other foods, has value in maintaining
persons health, but officials who en-
force the pure food law have always
commended that to label a food with
the word health, implying that the
food has a special health merit is
not in keeping with our Interpretation
of the Federal food and drugs act.
The housewife who goes to the store
for a loaf of bread should not expect
to get a food of special health quail
ities."
Doctor Dunbar, however, does not
believe that he purchaser should ne
glect to read what is printed on the
wrapper. For one thing, there will
be declaration giving the weight Of
the loaf, and there may also be state
ments which indicate the type or quail
ity of the bread contained therein.
The housewife, he says, who CUSTOM
arily asks merely for large or small
loaf, may find it more economical, price
considered, to ask for a certain weight

Mrs. A. E. Lemka Writes
About Home on Coast

1--WE had snow here all last week.
says Mrs. A. E. Lenlka of Orting, in
a nice letter to the Spokesman We'd

it will be rain all the way through.
1t has rained almost continuously since
Sunday morning.
II don't mind the rain much except
for drying clothes. It really is not
much Of success for that. We had
only one real cold spell, and that was
the first part Of December.
Ernie, our second boy, was In the
Orthopaedic hospital for about two
months, with tuberculosis of the spine.
He was taken suddenly sick about a
week before the Fourth Of July. The
doctor thought 1t was infantile par
alysis. When he got well his back
was crooked and he couldn't hold his
head up. So finally we took him to
Seattle and they took x-rays and
found 1t to be r. B. Of the spine.
when I brought him home, the
doctor said the T. B. was cured and
that he would straighten out more as
he got stronger. He sure looks lot
better than he did when he went
there. We have to take him back
again in couple of months for an
other examination, to see if he is get
ting along like the doctor thinks he
should.
Eddie and Donnie are just as lively
as they always have been.
Please say hello to all of my friends

Sanitary Quarters For
Feeder Pigs Recommended

1.-THE most important thing the buyer
has to consider when purchasing feed
er pigs Is their previous environmental
condition" declares Carlton w. Corbia,
instructor In animal husbandry at the
State College.
Heredity or breeding at one time
played the most important role, but
has given way to environment. No
pig, however well-bred, can turn out
profitably if he has been raised in
filth and on degenerating rations.
The ideal feeder pig is one that is
clean and free from parasites and
diseases The most common parasite
in Washington is the round worm,
and it thrives in old hog lots and
filthy quarters The symptoms are an
unthrifty appearance, coughing, or APP
pearing of long white worms in the
feces.
The feeder who purchases raw ma
terial from time to time will make no
mistake in selecting the healthy look
ing pigs, regardless of what age or
weight he desires. Hogs that have
been shipped from other territory
are always doubtful quantity and
should be treated as such.
After the pigs health is determined,
the next step in selection is to obtain
the breeding, or the desired inherited
qualities. A greater percentage of pigs
are "well-born" now than few years
ago, but it still behooves the buyer to
be constantly on guard against in
ferior stock.
Healthy pigs usually give about so
per cent better returns in daily gain
than unhealthy pigs, according to an
experiment just closed at the State
College. The division of animal hus-
bandry will furnish information on
round worm to interested persons who
write the department. The State Col
lege division of veterinary medicine
will also answer queries concerning the
round worm.

THE THRILLING RIDES
BY Eliza Hart Harvey
The cars are filled with girls and
boys;
I see them far and near.
They race along with joyous hearts
Ignoring care and fear.
The driveways are so wonderful;
The streets so wide and bright
They seem to think of nothing now
But joyous rides at night.
I feel they are no happier
Than youths of long ago
Who rode through wide and narrow
On horseback fast and slow.
Or when the ground was white
With clear, hard, sparkling snow
They raced over it's surface bright
With sleigh-bells jingling so.
That all the hills resounded to
The tinkling, tinkling bells
While they laughed in happy glee
At the music that swelled.
And floated in clear, mellow sounds
That dipped and rose and fell
And echoed from the snow clad hills
Those joyous tinkling bells.

Dear Niece:

A|SSSA 4NASSSs
So your mother has started on the
journey that has been put off so long.
She has earned this pleasure and
do hope she will come back in good
health and with much to tell.
My Dear, her last letter to me rather
took my breath when she asked me
to help you plan your meals while
she is away. I realize that she has
always had supply of food stuff in
the house for you, and that your cook
ing has been under her supervision.
Now, while she is away, know you
will look to yourself and get thrill
each time you go to the store or mar
ket to buy the supplies. If you will
Just put your mind to this, as you
used to do with your music lessons
do you remember how you dreaded
criticism or correction from your
teacher?-and so with family meals
I will tell you about the meals that
we have and give you the recipes that
I think will help you most.
Remember, my dear, that we are not
city folks, and we have cellar OF
canned fruits and vegetables, and also
that we are hearty eaters, so if my
suggestions seem large to you, you
must cut them down or learn to USE
your left-oyers in savory new dishes.
We enjoyed this one:
Meat Loaf
Buttered Peas Cabbage Salad
Dreamed Potatoes
Baking Powder Biscuits
Canned Strawberries
Coffee and Milk for the school age
For the meat loaf, take
2 lbs. ground beef
Suet
cup bread crumbs
egg
/ cup tomato pulp
Salt and pepper
Ask the butcher for a piece of suet
when you get your meat, cut it in
pieces and put across the loaf when
you put in into the oven. Bake about
an hour in a good oven.
If you will bake your potatoes early
in the day and at meal time peel and
cut into generous chunks, cover with
white sauce in baking dish and
put into the oven for twenty minutes,
you won't be sorry. will gladly an
swer your queries.
Lovingly.
