124 Of the Management of Fire 



on purpose to serve as models for private families ; and 

 I have had the pleasure to know that they have often 

 been imitated. 



The Kitchen in the Farm-House in the English 

 Garden. 



This kitchen is well contrived for the use for which 

 it was designed, and I can recommend it as a very 

 good model for the kitchens of farm-houses, for fam- 

 ilies consisting of eighteen or twenty persons. One of 

 the boilers, which is destined for warming water for the 

 use of the kitchen and the stables, is in winter heated 

 by the smoke of a German stove, which is situated in 

 an adjoining roorn, that inhabited by the overseer 

 of the farm. 



The great Kitchen of the Inn in the Garden. 



This kitchen, which is adjoining to the farm-house, 

 is contrived almost for the sole purpose of roasting 

 chickens before an open fire, a kind of food of which 

 the Bavarians are extravagantly fond. It has three 

 open fire-places, constructed on the principles recom- 

 mended in my Essay on Chimney Fire-places, fronting 

 different sides of the kitchen, and all opening into the 

 same chimney, which chimney is built nearly in the 

 middle of the room. This kitchen was built before my 

 roasters were come into use. 



The small Kitchen belonging to the Inn. 



This kitchen has nothing belonging to it which 

 deserves attention, or which I would recommend for 

 imitation. It was originally designed merely for mak- 

 ing coffee, chocolate, etc.
