: {BUY SC All was ready this afternoon for fair; Temperature AS IT SEEMS TO ME DANA SLEETH CORRESPONDENT writes ~ in to challenge my recent statement that if modern business would apply the Giscoveries of science the tent ‘of Living would be cut in half. The correspondent doubts if the colleges produce much that would be of business value. TI know little of what science in its wider reaches has discovered, but offhand I know of two minor discoveries that would save this state millions of dollars a year. One of them is an improved car- buretor that would handle low. grade distillates, and that would double the present mileage. Another is the discovery of the department of industrial chemistry of the University of Washington that enables the low-grade slack coal to he coveted into high- | grade hard coal, with a fuel value equal to the Pennsylvcnia anthra- cite. » Levy's Orpheum at 9:15 o'clock tonight, in which Seattle salesgiris en- listed in the Ziegfeld national stage beauty contest are to participate.
