Buffers Pantry
BY WILLIAM HARMON BEERS.

Buffers pantries can be Of all shapes
and sizes, depending on their location
In general they serve different pur-
poses. The first purpose is that OF
washing and storing china and glass
ware. The second purpose, place
where food can be placed Temporarily
as it arrives from the kitchen. The
third purpose, that of passage be-
tween the kitchen and the dining room
separating these two units and 1solat-
ing the kitchen.
Let us take up these several uses and
analyze them, thereby perhaps getting
some idea as to how the pantry should
be planned and arranged.
First, as a room for washing and
storing china and glass. The sink
should be placed near a window, pref
erably under it, so that no shadows
are cast, and this sink should not be
too low so that the housewife or maid
tires her back when leaning over it.
There should be two drain boards with
sufficient slope to allow the water to
run back into the sink when dripping
from undried plates. These drain
boards are better made of wood or
German silver rather than porcelain OF
vitrif1ed china. They are not as hard
and do not crack the china so easily.
Second, the dreSsers or cupboards
where the dishes are placed should not
be too high and should have glass doors
A counter shelf should run underneath
them, and they should be supported In
such way that the supports do not
reach the counter shelf. This is to keep
the shelf clean and permit the sliding
of dishes from one end to the other
Make the dressers deep and put under
meath the counter shelf cupboards with
solid wood doors. Allow a convenient
place for an ice box or refrigerator
This is often worked In with the
dreSserS.
Third, in arranging the doors, if pos
sible, place the kitchen door and the
dining room door opposite each other
and at one end of the pantry. In this
way passage may be had from the din
ing room to the kitchen without inter-
fering with any one working in the pam
try. A good plan is to have peep holes
in each of these doors about on a level
with the eye. This prevents two per-
sons attempting to pass through the
doors in opposite directions at the same
time,

SINGLE UNIT HELD
BEST LOAN LANDS
Annual Outline by Insurance
Companies Shows Prece-
dence of Dwellings.

The third annual outline of the real es-
tate loan policies of 10S leading life in
surance companies of the United States
and Canada, issued by the National
Association of Real Estate Boards
on specific types of property. the single
unit family dwelling takes precedence
over every other kind of real estate
The survey shows that 102 of the
companies are willing to loan on family
homes. OF the 10S companies answer
ing the questionnaireS, eight cover with
their loans all the usual types OF
properties,
Farm lands are listed among the loan
preferences of So companies. Six COM
panieS leaning on farm lands have, In
certain details, changed their policies
In granting farm lands loans. Two OF
the companies conf1ne their loans to
farm lands only.
Commercial Building Next.
Next to the family home in popularity
with the life insurance companies for
loans is the commercial building; 30
companies loan on commercial build
ngs. Duplex dwellings are a close
second to commercial buildings, with
81 companies favoring the duplex dwell
ing as security for a loan. Next in
favor came the two-apartment build
ing, on which 70 companies loan. Com
bination apartment and store buildings
are taken as loan securities by SO COM
panies. Large apartment buildings are
loaned on by So companies. Industrial
property is now included in the types
Of property on which Is Of the COM
panies make loans.
Certain types Of property not stand
ard for large insurance company loans
are included in various reports. Five

companies state their willingness tc
loan on churches, and the following types
of properties have a place in loan pref
erences in at least one report in the
data: Church property, ranches and
plantations, hospitals, country CLUBS,
unimproved city property and Masonic
temples and lodge property.
Length of time of loans varies greatly
with the companies. The shortest
period is 3 years, which is not I'M
common for loans on single-unit dwell
ings, while the longest periods reported
were 20-year loans, which are given
by two companies on farms and by
one company on Masonic temples.
Size Varies Greatly.

lated on the percentage Of the value
