The base jjien jbad no means of ventilation ejxcepf through windows, until the installation of this machine. There ft'reijfcl good many persons who jviork iin the basement every day, find ;he former condition was cer tAtnlyl not conducive to good ealth; or efficiency, fr jl How It Works ' )'l Ozone is one of the natural con stituents of; the air, and its sources (e, tpe electric storm, me action ii sunlight on snow, and on large pdlejjjt water, and vegetation, the ozonizer works on very much the sabie principle that nature does. Uh the case of a thunder iUrmt Lightening is spontaneous combustion of great accumulation tf ihich ! potential electric energy. This energy! when released by com bustion is absorbed by the oxygen of the air, jand the chemical con stituents of the air are then changed from two parts of oxygen to. three parts of' oxygen in each molecule. iThe addition of this third j atorri in each V molecule breaks up the stability of the mol ecules, and J makes the transition from the normal molecule to at omic oxygen; a simpler process. It is in this atomic state that oxygen is especially active in destroying decayed substances. j Every day many decaying substances ; ;; are thrown into the air from our lungs, jand jskin, and other life activities. In the open air these decaying substances are taken care of satisfactorily through the natural workings of bature. In a crowded rom. 'however, this is Impossible, land some artificial method must be secured. I4kr a Thunder Storm ; The ventilating ozonizer draws the air into a small cabinet where an electrical charge is shot through it,' thus securing the same action that takes place in the case of a thunder storm. The air of the room is by this process thoroughly purified of all of its impurities and blown out Into the room again by an elec trical fan. The air in the room Is- purified by this ozonizer once every twenty minutes. Installed on Trial " The ozonizer now in use at the state house has been installed on trial, and if it works properly it will be purchased. ; Some of , the employees in the room where the machine , is located like it very much, and others doubt its effi ciency. It is interesting to note, however, that when the machine was not used for a few day, the girls began to complain of bead flcb'-s. i nm I i iiii mmu mm run POIK COUfJTY Fill i V' i I 'i. fct Tft amous McArthur Farm 0 Grants Pass Man;- Rdalty Business Good payarc Pafc FIndley from Grants P&ii bought , the McArthur j farm Ideated ion the. main Dallas roaq 1 JOSL, east oi ; uerry niaiiuu.

Salem j SALE1TE INVENTS Tl NEWS 1 PULLER High Cost of Clearing Land Develops Inventive Gen ius of Resident It has been well said that ne cessity is the mother of invention, and C. H. Ringwald of this city believes in making theory Into practice. Some time agtf he de sired to hare some land cleared of stumps, and so began inquiries as to the cost of the work. He found that the cost was more than he cared to pay, and accordingly came' to the conclusion thatVhe would have to do the work him self. ' The first problem that con fronted him was the securing of a machine to pull the stumps, and so out of the necessity for such a machine grew the invention of what has proven to be a very eco nomical and efficient stump puller. A Studehaker engine, equipped with an old second-hand Auburn transmission furnishes power for the puller. A single drum for the cable is used, and on it Is wound 115 feet of 5-8 cable. The en gine is put In reverse when pull ing a load, and in high to un wind the cable. A single block is attached to a stump some dis tance from the machine, and the cable run through this block and back to the stump to be pulled. If the stump to be pulled is es pecially large, a set of two blocks can be used. Mr. Ringwald states that the machine will when idling break a 5-8 inch cable. And up to date he has never found any thing that will strain the engine. This machine has really been more of an experiment than anything else, and were he to build another one. Mr. Ringwald says that he would use a lighter engine and a -inch cable. . The machine is fastened on a platform which can easily pulled tip onto skids when moving is necessary; The whole machine is so fastened ; on the platform that it will automatically swing to face the direction from which the pull is coming, thus making it possible to Pall a three-quarter acre tract without moving the ma chine. 1 The machine pulls with apparent ease oak stumps ranging from S to 18 inches in diameter. In pulling fir stumps it would be necessary to use a heavier cable, and the stumps would have to be first broken with dynamite. Mr. Ringwald is very well pleas ed with his machine and esti mates that I be will get his land cleared and; pay for the machine too at a third of the price asked by those who bid on the job. The total cost of the stump puller was $188. Mr. IRingwald is the own er and operator of the sand and' gravel trucks employed by the Sa lem. Sand & Gravel company. II Hi 1ST S T KRIVE IN SftLEM C. A. Roberts Produces Popular Furnace Along I : Original Lines . 1 MULTIPLE BIEAII iS ME LIST Sales of City and jFarm Prop erty During January Reach ; Sum Over $13,000 I During the month of January, 1925, the Multiple Listing bureau of the Marion-Polk County Real tors association reports total list ings of properties value at $258. 700. Property transfers and sales total $13,400 during the same per iod, with, however, several deals for farm and city properties pend ing. Doubtless thfey will be con summated within the coming week. ; Most of the sales recorded have been made in Salem 'and vconcern city properties. Inquiries for farm property, however, have steadily increased and it is stated that some of the realtors are re ceiving on an average of one a day, with sometimes two and three letters. This Is a result of the direct advertising which the mul tiple listing bureau is doing with their "List" which carries the re cord of all properties listed with the bureau. j ' The Great Northern Railroad BUILDING PROBLEMS ARE DECLARED EASILY SOLVED Cottage of Five Rooms Suitable for SmaH Family The rapidly multiplying number, company has been using the Sa of small independent industrial concerns In Salem are a most fa vorable indication of the numer ous opportunities Here for the man ' or organization of small means to enter the field of pro ductive industry and make a win ning of the effort. A conspicuous example of this is found - in the shop of C. A. Roberts at 1011 South Commercial street. Mr. Rob erts is a sheet metal- worker who has lived in Salem many years and is a well known citizen of high standing as well as a workman of original ideas. A year ago he op ened his . independent shop witn the idea of placing on the market a furnace embodying principles which ; appealed to him as being fundamental in the conservation of fuel. His idea was to produce the maximum of actual heat units delivered to the rooms of a home with the minimum of fuel. The year has demonstrated that the public ; approved of his ideas, for he has installed many of them in the homes of Salem and surround ing territory and every one of them has resulted in performing to the highest standard of service claimed for it by Mr. Roberts, j i This is another infant industry for Salem which gives all indica tions of growing into a profitable institution of large dimensions v.here large payrolls will add to the prosperity of the city as well as to the owners of the business. Salem make a strong appeal to many a man with a head full of good ideas who wishes to start manufacturing a product which he believes will meet with public approval and enable him to de velop an independent business from small capital. The elements of success are found here, and the knowledge of that fact isr the ba sis of the strong appeal. Shade Street Property ! Is Sold By Local Man Mr. and Mrs. D. E.
