In your home. BY means OF elab-

Society Of Heating and ventilating
Engineers have learned that. Their
findings are shown. with scientific

"Comfort Chart" which has been
adopted as standard by air-condi-
tioning experts.
Shows Ideal Condition.
The Holland Institute Of Their
mology has simplifled this chart SO
that It can be used easily by any
family In its own home. The sim
plifled chart Is published here for
the first time. BY its use, every.
family can determine whether the
air in each room Is warm enough
or, rather. cool enough-and moist
enough for perfect comfort and
health.
There are three sets Of lines in
this chart. Those that 20 straight
up and down represent the temper
AZURE, as shown by the ordinary
thermometer. The curving diago-
nails show the relative humidities.
The heavy straight diagonal IS
known as the Comfort Line. It has
been established. by many physio.
logical tests, as the ideal to work
toward.
Economy in Humidity.
Let's see how you can use this
chart In your home. Suppose your
thermometer shows that the tenn.
perature In your living-room is 20
degrees. You run your finger up
the chart to where the Comfort
Line crosses the 7O-degree tempera-
ture line. This falls midway be-
tween 40 and 30 per cent relative
humidity. So you know the rela-
tive humidity In the room should
be about 45 per cent.
But suppose our temperature IS
63 degrees instead of ~. The Com
fort Line crosses 20 degrees exact
~ on the line representing DO per
cent relative humidity. So II we
want to be as comfortable with the
thermometer down ut 65 rs we
were when It was up Mt 20. We
must have a relative humidity OF
80 pAr cent.

Detectives Sent to Principal
Cities to Prevent Fraud

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 3.-(AP)
Russell Ryan, head of the legal de-
partment Of the Democratic state
committee, announced here today
that approximately $50 detectives
from the Burns Agency will be as
signed to the principal cities in In
diana election day to guard against
possible fraud. The assignment of
detectives was arranged by the
Democratic National committee,
Ryan said.
Several detectives already have
been ct work in Lake county (Cal-
umet region) and in Marion county
(Indianapolis), Ryan said. Shcr-
man Burns, son Of the late William
]. Burns, was scheduled to arrive in
Indianapolis from Chicago tonight
to take personal charge Of the In
diana situation.

most comfortable and healthful-
heat. Forcing the heating plant
runs the cost up. 1t also results,
sooner or later, in burning out tho
CRATES and flrepot, and this neces-
states costly repairs.
So the Comfort Chart shows ex-
actly what relative humidities
should prevail. Tie question now
Is. How can you tell what the rela-
tive humidity Is In your home? Or,
putting It another way, How much
water.vapor must there be In the
air inside your home and how can
you put and keep 1t there?
There's only one way Of pro-
ducing humidity, and that IS to
evaporate water into vapor and
circulate It in the air. So the sim
pie practical question you must
have answered is, How much wa
ter must be eyaporated In my home
each day to produce and maintain
q relative humidity that Is both
healthful and comfortable? The
Holland Institute Of TECHNOLOGY
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1928-11-03

has worked this out for you and
presents the results here for the
first time in form which the av-
erage householder can use. This IL
done In the Evaporation Table at
the bottom of these columns.
In the preparation OF this table.
1t was taken for granted that half
the necessary evaporation comes
from incidental sources. That IL,
the total evaporation required for
your home Is two times the flguro
given. But your cookstove. laun-
dry and bathroom are giving on
steam constantly a. long as they
are used. Water from running
faucets enters the surrounding at
mosphere. There is appreciable
evaporation from the bodies Of the
persons living III the house. And
there are many other incidental
sources Of evaporation in the
household routine. Air condition
ing experts assume that half the
total moisture required will come
from such sources while the other
half must be supplied by tho hui
modifying equipment.
Air Must Be In Motion.
Secondly, It Is assumed that there

the house. This Is based on tests

llnois which have shown repeated
~ that, with q modern warm air
heating system, the air in the home
is completely turned over on an
average Of one and a half times
an hour. If you haven't this type
Of heating plant-if you have one,
for instance, which leaves the air
practically static except when
doors and windows are open-the
amount of water required for hui
Modification will be considerably
less. But you pay for this advan-
tage by the great disadvantage Of
having the air in your home less

The third assumption Is that the
infiltration Of outside air into your
home Is no greater in your home
than In the average. Despite these
three assumptions, the Holland In

These facts have created the
necessity for an automatic humid<
fer, which Is met by the latest typ.
Of "vapor--air" warm air circulat-
ing heating plant. AS part of this
equipment, there Is an automatic
devic.. attached to the plumbing
pipes. 1t IL turned on Mt the be-
ginning of the heating season and
introduces constant flow Of wa

ant vapor IS carried up to the
rooms by the circulating air-cur-

matte humidifler have shown 1t ca
pable OF evaporating from three to
more than 20 gallons of water

In representative home-installa-
tons, 1t has maintained relative
humidities ranging from 40 to 81
per cent in the various rooms.

steam which aids in combustion.
Just as live steam is injected
into the boilers Of modern passen-
ger locomotives to make the burn

the steam rising from the ash
pit into the flrepot Of the heating
plant assures the owner Of getting
