you draw out some of the air already in 
the room. But when you allow the cold 
air to settle into the heater there will be 
no difficulty in getting the warm air to 
rise through the pipes into the rooms. 
A hot-water supply for the bathroom can 
be obtained from this same source if a 
heavy brass pipe of $ 4 ~inch iron size 
proportion is bent around the inside of 
the stove and connected to a storage 
tank in the regular way. This will pro¬ 
vide all the hot water required by an 
average family. It is assumed, of course, 
that there is a supply of running water 
already piped to the house. 
One very effective kitchen designed by 
the author was at the angle of a sum¬ 
mer cottage, as shown in the sketch. The 
entire cottage except on the south side 
was surrounded by a porch twelve feet 
wide, with only a small enclosed room 
in the center. The kitchen was built of 
lattice walls on three sides, with copper 
screening back of them. Window and 
door openings were built in the lattice, 
and rambler roses and honeysuckle cov¬ 
ered the lattice outside. The cooking ap¬ 
paratus was placed in an alcove where 
the walls were solid, in order that the

wind might not reach the flames or cool 
the oven. And sliding sash were arranged 
around the kitchen walls in such a man¬ 
ner that they dropped down into grooves 
as the sash do in “convertible” street 
cars. This room was kitchen and laun¬ 
dry combined. The temperature could be 
controlled easily. If the wind came up 
from the east and there was danger of 
taking cold, the sash on one side could 
be lifted. If the sun poured down on the 
housetops, the sash were dropped down 
into their pockets. But, whatever the 
conditions of the weather, this kitchen 
was shady and comfortable, and the pea- 
green paint matched the tendrils of the 
honeysuckle on the lattice. The sink, gas 
stove and refrigerator were white enamel, 
and the curtains at the windows were

Autumn-sown seed. 
Of course you cannot sow 
every kind of seed late in the 
year, but there are certain va¬ 
rieties that bear flowers even 
more profusely, and on far stur¬ 
dier plants, when started from 
July to September. 
The Aquilegias, for instance 
—the Campanulas, the Forget- 
me-nots—the Foxgloves—the 
Poppies. Numerousothers,too. 
Our Autumn Bulb Catalog, 
issued in August , contains 
all these and many others.
