that the 5000 degree Fahrenheit
temperature OF the loren might lie
brought into- play.
The problem was finally solved by
adding third tank, containing com

surrounding the torch head with q
larger metal tube In use under wa.
ter the blast of air passed through
the large tule and forced the water
back, making way for the fame.

POTATOES PEELED AND
MASHED ELECTRICALLY

Diners in cafes have probably
wondered how many hands are re-
quired in peeling and preparing
the vegetables eaten by the hun
dreds of people served in each
large establishment. 1t would sur
prise many of these to walk
through those kitchens which are
modernized by complete electric
equipment and to see the deft cleo
trio peeler, which performs this te-
dious task like magic. Not only is
there a vast saving in time and
weight over the practice of pre-
pairing those vegetables by hand,
but the process. is much cleaner,
as it is customary to connect the
machines with the water supply
so that a stream of water is con-
stantly running over the vegetables
being prepared.
Another interesting appliance is
the electric potato masher, which
CRATES and then forces
through fine sleeves two pecks OF
potatoes in less than one-haf min
ute.
In both these machines the metal
coming in contact with the food is
either of aluminium or is coated
with a heavy glass-like enamel, so
that flavors are not impaired.

Questions
And Answers

Electrical Editor: Wiring for
three additional lights is being
put in my home. The fixtures
have not yet been installed, and
the wires are left loose on the
wall. feel sure that I. must be
losing current through these
wires. Is 1t not true that my
meter is registering for them?
G.. G.. F.
No, electricity can be registered
upon the meter only when the cir
cult is closed. In other words, the
two wire ends which stick out from
the wall would have to touch each
other or make a circuit through "A
lamp or appliance before any .elec-
tricity would be used. In no man
ner can current be lost" as you
suggest.
As a matter of fact, the wires
during the process of installation
are not connected to the electric
meter at all. When the fixtures
are finally in place and tested out,
the last thing the electrician does
is to connect them to the main cir
cult, and they then become exactly
like any other outlets in the home.
Electrical Editor: I am having
my garage wired this week and
would like to have few sugges-
tions as to what electrical ga
rage appliances and lights would
be suitable for it. The dimen-
sions are ten feet by sixteen.
There is but one window. Thank
you for any assistance you can
give me. JAMES HI. l..
Paint the ceiling of your garage
a light color and install a good
unit which will give
you ample general illumination.
Over your work bench have several
outlets for attaching vulcanizer,
pump and utility motor, soldering
iron, battery charger, radiator
heater for cold nights, and any
other tools or appliances you may
decide to buy. A stout iron pipe
lighting fixture with an adjustable
feature and equipped with Areflector
and lamp guard will be very useful.
An extension cord which will. per-
NIT any device or appliance to be
used in any part of the room Is q
great convenience. Also have a
trouble lamp on a stout reinforced
cord long enough to reach under
and around the car.
