ONE CENT A DOSE u „ §
Reasons for Failure of Healing Systems
By J. D. HOFFMAN
(From Paper Presented at the Meeting of the American Society of Heating
and Ventilating Engineers, in Buffalo, New Yoflt)
The time has come for a campaign of education for more Manufactory
heating and ventilation In the home* of our country. Some means should be
found through which to educate the public to tleinand and see that they got
more satisfactory heat In their homes.
Heretofore heating engineers have pacifically endeavored to fit their
heating and ventilating system Into 111-conceived und poorly constructed
houses and have trusted to their ability as engineers to overcome the handi
cap Imposed upon the systems by architects or constructors who knew little
and cared less about the requirements of homo comfort. Now thut the stress
of severe winter la approaching we may ask ourselves: What and how may
the heating and ventilntlng engineers do to assist In laying the foundation
of a more effective economy in the years just ahead?
I have especially In mind somo of those conditions (principally resldfcn
tlal) that not only work against economic heating, but absolutely prevent It 1
In a large number of cases. Some of these conditions are due to the mistakes
of the architect with knowledge nforethought or otherwise, somo of them to
those of the heating man (or hardware man) who Installs the system, and
some to those of the householder who, practicing false economy, Is not willing
to pay the prlco of good work.
In most of the ordinary bnlloon-frained houses tho sheathing Is very
Inferior In grade and loosely butted at the edges, when there should be solid
boards and lap Joints. Some of the houses have no building pnper or lis
equivalent, aome have one course of the building paper and a few huve two,
but very few courses are laid with care to serve as an Insulation. Two
courses of paper In fnco contact are, It should be stilted, Inferior to one
course with the sheathing and one courso woven In and out over the studding;
or, to one course with the sheathing and one course on the Inside of the stud
ding, with atrlpplngs under the laths to bring the plaster free from the paper
surface. Again, suppose tho wall Is well protected against Inleakage, but the
tipper and lower ends of the spaces between tho studs nre open; In this ense
there Is freer convection of air upward between the Inner and outer layers of
the wall and tho heat that should be kept within the room Is dissipated to
this air current and lost to tho attic, and the conditions are worse than tho
open wall In that tho heat Is lost and there Is no corresponding physical bene
fit from Inleakage.
Another feature of house design that la frequently fatal to tho plans of
tbe beating engineer lr the overhanging room with only one thickness of
•eren-elghth-lnch flooring on the room nnd light celling over the porch. This
always gives a cold floor that Is not only uncomfortable to the occupants, but
eliminates heating possibilities on cold days. These remarks do not apply, of
course, to sleeping porches with no heat. If an overhanging room Is desired,
be aure to provide for a well-Insulated floor.
One feature of house construction that reflects against tho builder rather
than the architect Is the looso construction around tho windows. The owner
wishes free moving sash and the workmen glvo him everything he could
desire In thla regard. Hut how about tho person who Is expected to Inhabit
tbe room on a aero dny when the wind Is blowing n 20-mlle velocity? I have
caught anow In my hnnd at a distance of two feet from a tightly locked win
dow In a house supposed to have better than ordinary construction. Window
strips, metal weather strips nnd storin windows may be urged. Storm win- |
dows, top hung, give satisfactory Insulation during thy cold days ami nt tho
■Sine time provide ventilating possibilities on moderate days. An nverage nine
room bouse can bo supplied with good storm windows, west, north and east,
for an expenditure of from $75 to SIOO, and tho conl snvlng will pay for tho
flrat coat In two years' time. Such storm windows are no hindrance to open
window ventilation when desired.
Next, let ua look at the chimney. Seyernl points In common practice
among archltecta tend townrd Inefficiency. Tbe outside chimney. In spllo of
Its possibilities townrd exterior ornamentation, Is not a good draft producer
because of tho chilling effect of the outside air.
Another point, chargeable principally to the owner. Is the low basement
celling that reduces the pitch of tho steam mains or warm-air lenders to a
minimum. If the nverage householder realised the Importance of extra pltrh
to the plpea In the basement, he would let loose of enough additional capital
to guarantee • celling height of eight feet Instead of six feet, as Is so often
found.
la It not possible to develop a campaign of education In such a way that
the average man who may be contemplating building himself n little homo
may become more Informed on these vital polnta tliat nre so necessary to
co-ordinating the heating and ventilating features with tho building- -con
atructlon, and In that way develop an Independent thinker who will not bo
wholly at the mercy of the unscrupulous promoter or the uninformed Individual
who frequently postyi as an architect or engineer?
May the time soon come when wo will build our houses to serve as homes
and not aa private cantonmenta.

' BIT OF FARM MANURE DURING WINTER
RBw - \f \ ■
ri
* ~^' t '
PROPER WAY TO APPLY MANURE TO LAND.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Late fall—any time before the
ground freezes—on most farms Is the
easiest time to provide for making the
most out of the home supply of manure.
And this year, when commercial fertil
izers are high In price or Impossible to
obtain, It Is doubly essential that we
save every bit of the farm manure.
"Apply as fast as made" Is the best
rule before the ground freezes, and
even later than that on level ground.
But In hilly sections the farmers ]
doubtless are right In thinking there
Is too much loss from the munure
washing down the hillsides after the
ground freezes, or on the snow. Then,
too, In the North the snow is some
times too deep for hauling to be prac
ticable. I
Pit for Storing.
Most literature on the subject of pit
building for manure storage Is based j
on using concrete for material. While ,
this will usually pay If capital is avail- j
able, many formers feel they do not j
have the money to put Into it. Fortu- t
nately there are other ways that will
help greatly with little or no cash ex- |
pense. If a roof Is already available
under which to store the manure, the
ground should be leveled, or, better,
made to slope toward the center. Then,
If the soil Is sandy or lonmy, the sur
face should be ftmoved to a depth of
six Inches or so and the heaviest clay
procurable put In. After spreading a
SHEEP ON SMALL SCALE PAY
European War Has Developed Very
Important Enterprise for the
New England Farmer.
(Prepared by the United States Depart- !
ment of Agriculture.)
Conditions created by the European
war have made sheep raising on a
■mall scale n very important enter
prise for the New England farmer,
so situated as to take advantage of
tho economic conditions. I'rlor to the
recent remnrkabie advance In prices
of wool and mutton, sheep raising in
New England wag comparatively un- I
profitable, but now, under certain con- |
dltlons, a revival of the Industry !
seems desirable.
In a study made of sheep raising
In tho New England states by special- 1
Ift s of the U. 8. department of agri
culture It was found that this Indus- i
try when conducted on n small scale !
was more profitable than dairying. .
They therefore recommend that sheep !
replace the unprofitable cows and that
the Industry bo given more attention
In sections unfavorable for dairying. |
Kept In smnll numbers, sheep do not I
replace other kluds of live stock but 1
ure kept In addition to the regular 1
quota of other stock on such farms,
as have available pasture.
It was found that regardless of
whether sheep were kept In conjunc
tion with dulry or with beef cattle,
farms with sheep have practically the
Good Type for Any Farm.
same kinds and numbers of other live
stock as did farms without sheep.
Moreover, farms with the sheep had
an average of 15 more acres of pas
ture than did farms without the sheep, i
warranting the conclusion made by the
specialists that sheep In New Englund
have not been kept to the exclusion
of other livestock but have been kept
on farms with large pasture areas to
utilize the extra pasture available. j
Though sheep raising us now con
ducted on the farms studied Is a profit
able business at present prices, there
is much room and great need for the
Improvement of the Industry, nnd the
specialists say that the average grower
could, with better care, muke the busl- >
ness a much more profitable ono even
under normal conditions und without
the artificial stimulus to prices given
by the war. By proper care In breed
ing and feeding, the lambing rate
should be Increased one-third and the
wool clip IS per cent, which at present
prices would mean an Increase In re
ceipts of nearly $3 per sheep.
SMALL OR BIG SHEEP FLOCK
Many More Animals Can Be Kept With

The economical disadvantage of I

the hours of labor are practically th«

couple of inches of clay it should be
wetted and thoroughly tamped down.
This process should be repeated until
the desired height is obtained. The
outside rim may well be a foot or mow
higher than the center, this depending
on the size of the pit and the ease of
access for hauling away the mannre.
While such a bottom will hold much
of the liquid, it Is better to cover it
with some absorbent „ material—dry
loam is good if bedding Is scarce. Do
not use wood ashes, but coal ashes are
harmless if screened. Continue to use
enough loam to prevent any liquid
from oozing from the pile, which
should be kept level, moist and well
tamped. Horse manure, unless mixed
with that from cows or hogs, should
be wetted thoroughly—but not enough
to drain out—ln order to keep it from
heating, as heating causes a heavy
loss.
Keep Under Roof.
If there is no roof under which to
keep the manure, a cheap one should
be ,bullt. Tills may be a one-slope
"lean-to" along the outside of the
barn, a cheap shed with sides, or sim
ply four heavy, high posts on which
a roof slides up or down according to
the height of the manure —such as Is
used In some sections for outdoor hay
stacks. ,

ECONOMY IN GOOD HIGHWAYS
Good Demonstration Made by Motor
truck Firm in Practical Test
Quite Recently.
At Its meeting In Chicago the
United States Chamber of Commerce
adopted a resolution that the govern
went, through the president and the j
director general of railroads, be peti
tioned, among other things, to "com
plete trunk highways for heavy traffic
where they can be used In relieving
railroad congestion." Note the phrase
"heavy traffic" —which calls, not mere
ly for graded highway rights of way,
but for hard surface, cement, asphalt
or brick roadbeds capable of sustain
ing the heaviest trucks and dependable
'ln all sorts of weather.
The day Is coming—In fact, It is
here —when such highways are almost
rn absolute necessity. In some sec
tions of the country, due to railroad
Inadequacy to meet the traffic de
mands, paved cross-country highways
nre indispensnble to commerce and
community prosperity.
So, while we nre building roads let
us build them, not for today, but for
the days to come, says Atlanta Con
stitution. It will be cheaper In the
long run, nnd vastly more satisfac
tory from the "word 'go."'
The dollars-and-cents saving, nnd
the time ..economy, in hard surface
roads were clearly demonstrated by
q Northern motortruck firm In a
practical test completed some time ago
when a consignment of heavy mer
chandise was moved overland from
Detroit, Mich., to Toledo, O.
"The total pay load carried by a
four-ton tractor truck and two trail
erg was 12 tons," says Automobile
Topics in discussing the trip. "The
load was distributed as follows: Two
tons on the truck, six tons on a five
ton trailer nnd four tons on a three
ton trailer. The trip was made In
eight and a half hours over 48 miles
of cement and asphalt and 12 miles of
dirt road. Almost exactly as much
t.me was required to travel over the
dirt road as over the cement, because

there was no foundation to the road
nnd Im>ili the trailer and trucks
sank. Three fourths of a gallon of
oil and 22 gallons of gusoline were
used on the trip"
The real pith of the "argument lies
In the fact that almost as much time
—and, of course, more oil und gas—
was consumed in traveling 12 miles of
dirt road as was required to make
the 48 miles over the hard-su r face
highway.
And again: Consider the differ
ence in value of the respective types
of road to the abutting property and
to the co. 'ty ead the state containing
tliem.
LOADS AT END OF GOOD ROAD
Double Amount of Team Power Re
quired to Haul Wagons Over Un
improved Country Highway.
To see whnt happens at the end of
the good road, a public road specialist
of the department of agriculture re
cently had observations made In differ
ent sections of the country. Observers
■it
who drove two loaded wagons, hitched
one behind the other, to the end of the
good road/ where they left one wagon
by the roadside to be returned for
later all the power of their teams
was devoted to hauling a single wagon
prer the unimproved highway.
Farmers bound for market frequent
ly were seen to haul wood and similar
product* to the beginning of the good
road, there dumping them and return
ing for a second load. When this ar
rived, the two loads were consolidated
and easily hauled by a single team the
remaining distance to market over the
Improved road.
MAKE SOFT CHEESE AT-HOME
Only Bimple Equipment Needed to
Manufacture Neufchatel and Cream
In Bmall Quantities.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Neufchatel and cream cheese, two
of the group known as soft cheese now
made almost exclusively In factories
with extensive equipment, can be made
at home. The method is simple and
does not require elaborate equipment.
It offers an excellent opportunity for
the disposal of surplus milk on the
farm and enables farm housewives to
make n fresh, wholesome and attrac
tive food at home.
Neufchatel cheese should be made
from whole milk that tests about 4
per cent,.and cream cheese from milk
testing 6 per cent butterfat. Both are
made In this way: To a quantity of
80 pounds, or 8% gallons of milk, add
a pint of good starter or clean-flavored
sour milk and stir well. Warm the
milk to between 80 to 88, degrees F.
Then add about eight drops of rennet
which has previously been dissolved
In a cupful of cold water. Stir in
thoroughly and set the milk aside to
curdle. Powdered pepsin (one-half
the size of a pea) or one-third of li
junket tablet may be used In place of
the rennet. The cheese may be made '
without a starter. In which case the
milk should be ripened (allowed to |
stand at 70 degrees F.) for six or
seven hours before adding the rennet
After 10 to 18 hours, the time usual
ly necessary for proper curdling, pour
the milk Into a drain cloth and allow
to drain from two to four hours or
until practically no whey drips from
the cloth. Then place the bag of curd
between two clean boards, put a '6O
- weight upon It and let it stand
tor six or eight hours. Remove the
curd from the cloth to a pall. Sprinkle
two level teaspoonfuls of fine salt over
it, and thoroughly mix with a potato
masher until It has a smooth buttery
consistency. Running the cheese
through a food chopper or working It
with a butter worker produces the
same result.
The cheese should then be placed In
a crock or enamel dish until ready for
use and kept nt a temperature of (50
degrees F. or below. If it is to be
sold, it should be molded Into email
packages and wrapped in tinfoil, or
packed In glass jars.
In nutritive value these cheeses
compare favorably with other staple
foods, especially meat. They are rich
