Electric Cooling The attention of the entire electrical industry has been drawn to the Utah Power & Light company's territory during the past year by reason of the very rapid development' of electrical cooking throughout this section. Over 1400 electric range are now In use in the company's territory, together with 34,975 electric Irons and 6145 washing machines. Over 9 per cent of all residences within 300 feet of the lines of the Utah Power & Light company are using electric service. The officials of the Utah Power & Light company have made very vigorous efforts toward encouraging the use of its- service along the linea that relieves housewives from much of the drudgery of thqir work. Elbert Hub-)ar- d once remarked when Remington built-hi- s first typewriter he discovered woman, but that since that date electricity has been the greatest factor n her enfranchisement. Electric wash-n- g machines, electric ranges and various other household utensils have been placed in the homes served by the Utah Power ft light company in large numbers. Relative to the extensive service of the company an interesting comparison is found in the fact that since 1896 the cost of anthracite coal, clothing, food, rent and taxes has increased on the average over 60 per cent. During this same period the cost of electric .lighting current has decreased until at the present time 15j cents will buy the amount of electric light that 20 years ago cost $1.00. Over 800 miles of interurban electric line, together with over 300 miles of street railway lines in Utah secure all of their power from the Utah Power ft Light company. The company furnishes employment to 2424 people in the territory it serves and its annual payroll is $1,629,200, which amounts to over 46 per, cent of the total annual earnings of the December the 24th CASH PAID FOR POULTRY AND EGG3.

With hands clasped and OF MILK IN A COW 6eeretory Glands Take Raw Materials From the Blood and Manufacture Them Into Product. , In the system of the dairy cow there, are two kinds of glands: excretory glands and secretory glands. A good, example of the excretory gland Is the kidney. An excretory gland does not manufacture, but simply serves as aj vehicle for transferring waste from, the body. The secretory glands are manufacturers. They take the raw materials from the blood and manufacture them Into a special product. The mammary' gland, 'located In the upper part of the adder of the cow, is a secretory; gland. It takes the raw materials from the blood and manufactures mine. The large veins seen under the abdomen of the cow do not contain milk,, as a great many people suppose. They contain Impure blood. Tbit blood U returning to the heart.
