Natural Gas Most Useful Servant Of Modem Housewife The use of natural gas for all oper ations requiring heat is rapidly in vading all fields in both domestic and industrial branches. Particular ly is this true during the past few years. Research, conducted by rep utable agencies, has discovered a great many uses for natural ga* that have her % of ore been consid ered as not adaptable to the burn ing of natural gas. This increased use Is due largely to better and more certain methods of controll ing heat, especially In large indus trial jobs. Recent research by the engineer ing department of a large eastern college shows that gas heat can be controlled to within ten degrees of any desired point, while other fueds and heating methods have been found to vary as much as fifty de grees over or under the necessary heat. This adsolute control of heat is just as valuable to the housewife in baking cakes, pastries or meats. as it is to the large industrial plant that must be sure of a certain heat in their processes In either case the fluctuation of the heat may mean the difference between suc cess and failure. In the case of the housewife It means failure of the particular baking in progress, with perhaps guests arriving for dinner, and no time left for another trv, while with the Industrial plant it means the lass of money and time, a* well as sub-standard products. The dependability of natural gss • a large factor in it's wide spread use. The fact that more than ample supply of fuel is always available for the smallest or the mightiest operation, without thought or pro vision on the part of the user in well worth considering. For heat ing uses in the home of course, the problem of storage space for the fuel supply is not serious. But in the case of large users of fuel the question of storage is an Important one. The miles of pipe line lead ing from the gas fields to the users appliance constitute a vast stor age system, well underground away from disturbing elements, that is being constantly re-filled as the fuel is used. Then, too, depend ability means that the fuel Is there when It is wanted. When emergen cies arise and fuel is needed, it is a comforting thought to know that plenty of fuel is ready for use. With a constant supply of fuel heating operations can continue indefinite ly. such as water heat mg when an automatic water heater is used, keeping a tank of hot water always GRISHAM’S MILK Says Mrs. Yates Again this year Mrs Yates select* Grishams Milk for use during the •Happy Kitchen1’ School this week And she selects Grisham s because she wants - Safe — Dependable Pasteurized Milk Because of the full butter-fat content and the smooth, fine cream, high in food val ues and health giving qualities. Pasteurized, Sanitary, SAFE for babies and grown-ups alike. GRISHAM ICE CREAM CO. 440 W. Elizabeth Phone 1S2 ready for use. Industrial users find gas to be an ideal fuel for long heating uses such as burning bricks, title and the like in kilns, or hold* ing steam in boilers over a period fl-hen other fuels might necessitate the drawing of fire under the boil ers Tlie Rio Grande Valley is fortun ate not only in having an ample sup ply of natural gas available, but also in the fact that the gas In use here Is of high heat content. The unit of heat as applied to any fuel, la the British Thermal Unit, which is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit, at or near it's point of maximum density. The gas used in the Valley contains more than 1000 B T. U. per foot, as compared with gas served in some parts of Texas which has a heat content of about 600 B T. U. per foot This means that users of gas in the Valley are able to get more heat from a given amount of gas than are many consumers in Texas. This combination of adaptability, dependability and heat content, to gether with the ease of use tend to make natural ga« the ideal fuel for domestic and industrial purposes. 'GRANT STORE AIDS SCHOOL ' Economy in the nome means more than just economy in the kit chen. Mrs. Beulah Mackey Yates, cooking expert in charge of The | Brownsville Herald's Happy Kitchen cooking school, points out. The modem housewife not only I budgets her kitchen needs, but also budgets her clothing, the children s { clothing, and the countless odds and ends which are necessary in every house if it is to become a uome. In this respect the Brownsville W. t T. Grant store, of which R. K. Ayres is manager, will play an im ' poriant part in this year's cooking school. Just as the modern, thnftj housewife selects the foods that are! better for her family, and selects ,ne era pies for the kitchen that will give the greatest results for the money, so does she select her house dresses, the children’s school dress es and the hundreds of other necessities that go to make up the i home with great care. The modern housewife knows that a housedrea*. a party dress, an apron, a pair of h06e. or the thousand and other I .lungs she needs can be purchased at a reasonable prices, and at the same time can be purchased at that price 1 without sacrificing quality, or style, o: satisfaction. The modern house wife knows further that such pur chases can be made quickly, easily and in shopping comfort at any W. T- Grant store. She knows further that the W. T Grant store Is likely to have most of the things that she needs either In the kitchen, or to add to the comfort of some room, or to bright en some nook or comer. She knows that If she need* cooking utensils, silver ware, pictures, polishes, or in tact almost anything that she needs for her home, she will find it at the W. T. Grant store. There is no prob lem of endless searching for the rj?ht article, and when It 1* pur-j chased at Grant's she knows that, .•she Is buy mg a quality product at the lowest price possible. Throughout the cooking school. I the W. T Grant store will prove through displays and demonstra tions that housewives can obtain the ; necessities and luxuries they poa ! sibly have been putting off because 1 of a small budget, and because thev thought that small budget mace the things they wanted beyond their I reach.
