Union and Garden Prairie, approximately 10 milesapart. The three buildings are practically alike in construc-tion and equipment except that the substation at Gilberts switches, switchboards, and the other necessary apparatus. Ineach station provision is made for the installation of an addi-tional rotary at some future time. Instead of employing the usual type of strain towerthe high-tension wires enter the substation from two 45-footpoles located opposite the front of the building. The polesare securely guyed to each other and to the ground. Insula-.
