Economic Arrangement of Machinery. — In the arrangement 

 and connection of the machinery, economy of manufacture and 

 sanitation of the product should receive serious consideration. The 

 machinery should be so arranged as to reduce to the minimum the 

 space, pumps, pipes and conveyors needed. Pumps, conveyors, 

 pipes and fittings are expensive, and the space saved by judicious 

 arrangement of the stationary machinery may be used to advantage 

 for other purposes. 



Human muscle is the most expensive form of motive power. 

 Wherever muscle can be replaced by machinery and where, by in- 

 telligent arrangement of the machinery, unnecessary steps and hand- 

 ling can be avoided, the cost of manufacture is reduced.
