requires q small sink which should
be placed where there is plenty Of
light.
The combined ice house and dairy
shown in the accompanying perspective
and floor plan is well-designed build
ing of very neat appearance. The walls
of the building are of structural tile,
built upon a concrete foundation. The
ice is intended to be covered with saw
dust or straw that has been put
through the cutting box. Continuous
doors for easy filling extend from the
concrete wall almost to the peak Of
the building.
The dairy is big enough to handle
the milk from gOod-siZed dairy herd
when the milk is run through the sep
arator and the skinned milk fed to
well-bred young stock as quickly as
possible after being separated. One
of the easiest and best ways of start
ing a farm dairy business Is to handle
the milk in this way. The cream should
be sent either to the city or to the
creamery. Skinned milk when fed to
pure-bred calves and pigs has a spe-
cial value that brings better returns
than selling the milk. There is very
little fertility carried away from the
farm in cream cans. Farmers who do
a careful dairy business have valuable
stock and get high prices for the ami
mails fed in this way. The value Of
the dairy house can only be measured
by taking into account all of the vari-
Gus features Of the business such as
this method of feeding suggests.

connecting areaWayS or passages, the
result Of the combination is the same,
If the selection of the parts of the
combination is carefully made.
The ice house and the milk house
must, of necessity, be definitely sepa-
rated by wall well insulated against
variations in temperature, yet good
proportion of the contents of the ice
house will eventually be used in the
milk room and the combination of
these buildings results in a saving of
time in filling the bunker or in obtain
Ing ice for other purposes in the milk
house part of the building. Good dairy
men will not keep milk near the
stables, even though the law in their
state does not force them to observe
this precaution. The milk house is
then a necessity and it will ordinarily
be obtained in one Of three ways: In
case the dairy business is large, a sep
arate building, fitted with all of the
modern equipment necessary to the
conduct of a paying dairy business,
will be needed. In case the amount of

LOCOMOTIVE BUILT ON COAST
Liberty Engine of Pacific Type, Just
Completed, Is First in Twenty
Five Years.

The first locomotive constructed on
the Pacific coast in a quarter of a CEN
fury has just had its maiden trip over
the Southern Pacific lines, having
hauled part of the draft contingent
from Sacramento to Oakland and
thence to Roseburg, Ore. In it's first "
hours services the new engine covered
1040 passenger miles, which is consid-
cred an exceptionally fine showing.
The locomotive was constructed in the
Southern Pacific shops in Sacramento
and is of the Pacific type. Six CONSOLE
dation engines for freight service and
three ten-wheelers are also being built
in Sacramento, the ten costing $780,
600, and constituting part of the South
ern Pacific's order for 65 new engines.
The Liberty engine" as 1t has been
nicknamed, has a traction pull of 49,
40 pounds.

Floor Plan.

milk handled is not great enough to
warrant the use of separate building,
the milk house must be combined with
either the farmhouse or the ice house.
Under certain conditions, the farmer
might desire an extension to his house
which would include both the ice
house and the milk house. A farm
house designed in this way is among
others in a group Of designs recently
prepared by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. If such scheme
Is not used, the combined building
should ut least, be placed as near the
farmhouse as possible.
There are certain conditions which
must be taken into account in building
he ice house. The first is that its 10.
alton must be such that good drain
&c Is possible. There Is always a loss
y melting and the water must be car
led well away from the building and
Isposed of either in the soil, through
drainage system already in place OF
connection with a stream. The de
On will account for the other condl
Ons, which are related to the proper
obstruction of the walls and roof OF
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1917-12-28

the building to secure sufficient in
sulatiOn to prevent undue loss. Struc-
tural tile has been found an excellent
material for the construction of farm
Ice houses. It's ordinary use provides
a series of dead air spaces which are
very effective as an insulation against
temperature variation. 1t is, of course,
necessary to use care in the cOnstruc-
ton of the walls so that no leaks are
present to admit warm air TO the in
terror of the house. The inside of the
house must be lined with some water
PROCEED insulation so that moisture
does not have an opportunity TO work
into the mortar joints and body Of the
tile.
Within the main walls of the ice
house there may be a partition placed
near one end to form a milk room and
ice bunker. Such an arrangement is
more economical Of ice than TO build
the milk room in some part of the milk
house remote from the ice house. The
door into the milk room should be
constructed in the same manner as the
continuous doors placed IN the outside
wall Of the ice house.
The milk house size and arrange
ment will depend upon the method of
handling the milk. If special equip
ment Is used, provision must be made
for it in the house. There is more to
be considered than simply the size.
For instance, the farmer who wishes
gasoline engine In his milk house, to
turn the separator, churn, ice cream
freezer or whatever other equipment
is used requiring power, must have
provision for the placing of concrete
base, at the time of pouring the foun-
dation and floor, and an outlet must be
| provided in the wall or roof for the ex-
haust pipe of the engine. If a boiler
is required, it may be necessary to pro-
vide special floor construction for it.
In any event. the milk house should be
provided with chimney and a cooling
! tank should be conveniently placed,
in the design. Unless a supply of pure
water is near at hand and can be con-
veniently piped to the milk house, it Is
| advisable to place pump in the milk
house. Some farmers place the equip
ment of their water supply system for
the farm in their dairy house. The

Some Of the buildings on the aver
age farm, as a matter Of economy in
original investment and also in labor
cost Of doing certain parts of the farm
work, may be designed to serve null
tiple purpose. OF the possible combi-
nation buildings, perhaps the most log
ical is the combined ice house and
milk house. The appearance of the
farm is very much benefited by having
smaller number Of high-grade build
ings of somewhat larger size. A large
number Of scattered outbuildings not
only result in the appearance of dis
organization, but this arrangement
very often actually results in the waste
of miles of walking between buildings,
when the matter is considered on a
basis of a years time. Even though

EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING OF WOMEN
FOR VARIOUS BRANCHES OF RAILWAYS

Women have made a splendid start
I'm various branches of railroad work to
make up wartime deficiencies of men,
according to reports of the New York
Central railroad, where President AL
fred II. Smith has ordered the en-
ployment and training of feminine
workers wherever possible in all de-
partments.
A gang of 80 women, under direction
of woman bookkeeper, is employed
by the New York Central at Collin
wood, o., in sorting 1900 tons of scrap,
nuts, steel plates, spikes, bolts, brake
Bhoes-practically every part of SUI
perannuated engine or a broken-down
car. These women examine and sort
every piece of scrap; they do the work
as well as men and appear to like it.
A. T. Hardin, senior vice president
in charge of operation of the New
York Central, who promulgated an or
der to all officers to "begin the en-
ployment and training of women for
fhe various branches of the service
which they can perform, beginning at
first with the least laborious work." is
quoted by the Railway Employe as
saying, concerning progress of the
movement:
Receive Same Pay.
1.-THE first rule we laid down about
the increased employment of women
made necessary by the war was this
The woman who does the same work
as man will get the same pay as a
man. Those women who are sorting
scrap get an average of $3.50 day
Just what a man would receive for
similar work.
ave have increased greatly the num-
Der of women employed in our audit
ing department. We have women in our
car department to keep track of the
movements of 100000 cars. They keep
a record where each car goes and what
1T does every day. We have put women
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1917-12-28

to work in our purchasing departments.
We are training women to sell tickets,
to act as watchmen at railroad cross
ings. In our shops women are learning
to run lathes, drills and other small
tools, and we expect to employ women
as assistants in stations.
Heavy Work Barred.
'There is no work done on railroads
which a woman cannot do, except the
heaviest manual labor requiring phys
ical strength. Women could not lay
railway ties. They should not be called
upon to do work which would Overtax
their strength. We are not used to
the idea of the performance of manual
labor by women in this country. We
don't like to see women do hard work
But there Is nothing about railroad
work requiring skill or accuracy which
women cannot do. We have had one
woman watcher at railroad crossing
up the state for the last ten years.
War Gives Opportunity.
sour present work is centered large
ly in the organization and training of
women for employment by the rail-
roads. We cannot tell how long the
war will last or how many men eve
may lose by the draft. We want to be
ready. The women we are training are
in many instances relatives of our en-
plOyees. They have taken up railroad
work eagerly and theoretically. Their
contribution to the industrial welfare
Of the country will be of tremendous
benefit to women. Many women have
extraordinary energy and power for
constructive work which has never
been put to practical use. The war
gives them an opportunity to serve
their country and themselves.
an Europe women have proved their
capacity to DO the work of men and
American women are demonstrating
equal efficiency in every field they have
entered"
