living sheep.
The bales of wool ore sent to the
wooden mills and are opened in the

on table before the "sorter." who
quickly decides its quality and grade,
and lays it in its proper basket. The

thoroughly the sheep is scrubbed, its

pronged stats revolve, picking up and

The wool is next secured in hot

the soap is washed out in clean water.
The machine which does this delivers
the wool between ro ,lers which squeeze

new house, planned with this in
view. Hot.water heating is estimated
to require one-fourth more radiating
surface than steam, and of necessity
there must be more and larger radia-
tors these can be placed where they
will not be obtrusive They can be
adjusted beneath the windows and en-
cased, and arrangements can be made
for the passage of current OF fresh
DIR over the radiators, thus contribut-
ing admirable toward the ventilators
of the house. The very latest appli-
cation of hot water to heating Is in
combination with hot air, and in many
ways this is the most perfect system OF
all. Both sources of heat are in the
same furnace, which need be no larger
than il either system was used by it.
self. The furnace is like the ordinary
hot-air furnace, except that hot
water drum occupies the central part
of the dome.
Those rooms that can easily be
reached by direct current of hot air,
are heated by registers, while those
further away from the furnace are
equipped with radiators. This system
Is particularly well adapted for large
and rambling country houses, which,
from the very nature of their con-
struction, can never be thoroughly
heated by hot air alcne. In 30 far as
the consumption of fuel is concerned,
the combination system is as economi.
cnl as any other; perhaps, indeed, q
greater amount of heat can be obtained
from fire of the same size. With prop.
er care on the part of architects in ar
ranging inlet ducts for fresh dir to
accelerate the draught, any desir-
able degree of ventilation may be
secured. Such arrangements should,
however, be studied in advance, from
principal elements in the design OF q
building instead OF being wholly sub
ordinated las is commonly the custom)
to less important architectural feat
ures. The design presented with this
is arranged for the use of the combin-
alton system (hot air and hot water).

Colors: All clapboards and sashes,

corner boards castings, bands, rain
conductors, also front and rear out

Accommodations: The principal
rooms and their sizes, closets, etc.,
are shown by the floor plans. Cellar

and outside entrances and concrete
floor. Laundry under kitchen. Fur
mace cellar under library and dining
room. Vegetable cellar under parlor

space for three rooms and storage.
Sliding doors connect parlor, library
and d;ning-room. Open fireplaces in
parlor, library, dining-room and two
bedrooms. Hat and coat closet off

Three thousand four hundred and
fifty dollars is the actual cost to build
this house, not including heating ap-
paratus, and fair estimate for a sys-
TEN of hot-water heating giving in
direct radiation downstairs and direct
radiation in the second story would be
about $3.50. Radiators should be
placed as near the windows rs pos
sible in parlor, dining-room, library
and hall down stairs, and in the three
larger bedrooms and bathroom in the
second story. The estimate is based
on New York prices for materials aud
labor. In many sections of the coun-
try the cost should be less.
