All buildings of the better class are heated with Bern
hard boilers.
The peculiar construction of the boiler takes all the heat
out of the smoke, which means that every heat unit in the
coal is absorbed by the water.
The fact that these boilers stand very low adds another
distinct feature of convenience.

The process used in the construc

the outbreak of the groat Civil War.
From time to time, of course, this

ELECTRICAL WORK
IMPORTANT ITEM
Dauphin Electrical Supplies |
Company Which Did It Has I
Many Big Contracts
In the completion of the massive
home of the Standard Baking Com
pany, no contractor played a more
prominent part in finishing the build
ing than did the Dauphin Electrical
Supplies Company, of which John S. |
Musser is president. The company |
did all of the wiring in the building
and installed the motors and various \
other necessary electrical equipment, j
The Dauphin Electrical Supplies
Company, located at 434 Market I
street, is one of the largest concerns j
of its kind in the East and not only j
caters to trade in Harrieburg, but also j
does business all over Pennsylvania. |
in selecting a contractor to do the
electrical work in the new bakery, it j
was necessary that those familiar with !
electrical construction in big build-!
ings be considered and from this
group Mr. Musser's company was se
lected. The Dauphin concern also
did the work in the Emerson-Brant
ingham building, the Colonial Theater,
the Dives, Pomeroy & Stewart store,
I lie Y. W. C. A. building, the Harris- i
burg Storage Company, Schmidt's I
bakery, the Boyd Memorial building,
the Harris burg Academy, Bowman &
<"o.'s store and in practically all of
the big buildings In the city. The
company also caters to the lesser trade
II nd the thirty skilled electricians em
ployed are kept busy wiring the big
buildings and residences.
The company's store is one of the
best stocked in the? eastern part of
the United States and any kind of
fixtures, appliances or supplies are to
be found there. In the store a dozen j
clerks are employed. During the past l
few years the electrical business has I
| made rapid strides and the Dauphin
company has been going the pace, too. !
In 1898 the Arrowsmith Electrical;
Company opened a store in Market]
Square and in 1901 Mr. Musser became I
; its manager. In 1901 the business was
: moved to -134 Market street and three
| years later the company was reor
ganized as the Dauphin Electrical Suo
j lilies Company. Mr. Musser was made
j its president. The business at that
time was comparatively small but it
s grew steadily until it compares fa-
I vorably with any concern of its kind
in the country.
No Accidents During
Process of Building
Standard's New Plant
The Fidelity and Deposit Com- I
pany's more than twelve million dol
lars of assets and an underwriting ex- I
, perience of 2(» years were back I
of the public and employer's liability!
i policies held by the Standard Baking j
Company during its building opera-'
tions and speaks well for the man- 1
i'.gement of the latter that not a single 1
i accident occurred.
The Fidelity Company, represented
in Harrisburg and throughout a large
Pennsylvania territory by G. h. Cull-1
merry, as general agent, has likewise
grown to be a landmark and one of
the leading institutions not only of
its home city—Baltimore—but of the
whole country, with agencies in every
Stale, in every important city and
town, in Canada, Great Britain,
France, Germany, Austria and Rus
: sia.
The company writes, as surety, every
class of fidelity, judicial, contract, of
ficial, government and miscellaneous
bonds; and also accident, health, au
tomobile, burglary, plate glass, liabil
ity and workmen's compensation in
surance.
It is frequently spoken of as the
largest and strongest surety and cas
ualty company in the world.
Mr. Cullmerry has represented the
concern in Harrisburg for upwards to i
ten years.
Bogar Lumber Co. Plays
a Part in Standard Baking
Company's New Plant
Into the construction of the Stand
ard Baking Company's new building
has been incorporated a vast amount
of rough lumber and mill work, a great
portion of which was supplied by the
Bogar Lumber Company, of this city.
The Bogar Lumber Company, one
of the largest lumber concerns in Cen
tral Pennsylvania, was organized about
seven years ago and from its early
stages of inconsequental size it has
been developed to Its present huge
proportions, through the persistent ef
forts of its founder and present man
ager, Thomas H. Bogar.
A great number of Harrisburg's
most prominent business buildings and
private dwellings have had all of the
lumber in their construction supplied
by this concern, among (hem being the
immense Harrisburg Storage Ware
houses, the Vernon street school build
ing, Highspire school building, and the
handsome Slavonic Home at Jednota.
STANDARD'S SEVEN
GIGANTIC OVENS
Equipment Includes Modern
Ovens of 40,000 Loaves
Daily Capacity
Undoubtedly one of the most im- | 5
portant factors of the modern bakery g
such as the Standard Bakery, is the 5
ovens in which the bread is baked. 5
The equipment of the Standard Baking ' o
Company's new plant includes seven 2
monster ovens, furnished by the 5
Standard Oven Company, of Pitts- 5
burgh, Pa., one of the largest con- 5
cerns of its kind in the country. These i {■
ovens are finished on the extenlor in 2
a highly glazed Ule and presents an I v
altogether handsome appearance. | 5
These ovens have a capacity for bak- | 5
lng 40,000 loaves daily. ?
A. F. Ilartzell, genoral manager of i c
the Standard Oven Company, while in j £
Harrisburg the other day to personal- I S
ly inspect the new ovens. In discussing ] 5
the product of his concern, said to a ?
Telegraph representative: "Aside j £
from those used by the Standard Bak- ?
lng Company, upward to a thousand I J
of our ovens are in use in the East- | 5
ern section of the country alone. These [ ?
were not selected because of their! i
moderate price, but rather, because \ <
of their daily performances for some i J
of the larger bakeries. Standard ovens £
are of the arch-top (continuous) type,!?
of massive construction, the very best c
grade of special tirebrlck being used <H
