complete in the west, but because we have clone this we are not compelled to
charge an exorbitant price for our work, as we have spent this money putting1 in
the latest labor saving machines We do not use the hard city water, but have
wells of our own from which we pump the
Purest Soft Water
for the entire plant. We are not on a meter system, s,o are not compelled to be
careful of water, but on the contrary we change the rinse water several times,
probably twice more than we would or could if we were paving for water by the
