The counter for preparing vegetables
and scraping and stacking used dishes
need not be so wide, front to back, as
a mixing counter. BY taking off 3
inches and using as much depth as pos
sible in the outside wall, four bins may
be built under the windows for vegeta-
bles and fruits.
For the serving counter Sc inches to
"A inches is sufficient.
6. There are specific requirements
for wall and base storage space. When
plenty of wall space is available, the
temptation to fill it with wall cabinets
is great, but too many can spoil eff
ficiency.
AS basis for determining the amount
of storage space necessary, the number
of bedrooms in the home has been used
as a yardstick. One person per bed
room, plus an additional person for the
master bedroom, is called normal oc-
cupancy of home. Studies proved that
six square feet of storage space in wall
cabinets is required for each person
in other words, normal occupancy times
square feet. To this add IL square
feet for entertaining and accumulation.
Base cabinet storage requirements
are measured on lineal foot basis.
Generally speaking, base cabinets
should occupy all space beneath the
wall cabinets not already occupied by
the range, sink or refrigerator. If there
is enough wall storage space, there
will usually be enough base storage.

z. Have the right clearance between
counter surfaces and wall cabinets.
There are established clearances be-
tween counter surface and bottom of
wall cabinets which it is wise to follow.
All standard base cabinets are now
Sc inches high to correspond to the
established height of standard ranges
and sinks. There should be 16 inches
of space between the counter surface
and the bottom of the wall cabinets.
This is sufficient to clear the top of
the food mixer and yet keeps the wall
cabinets as low as possible to permit
easy reaching of all shelves.
When wall cabinets are located over
the cooking surface of the, range, pro-
vide a clearance of % inches between
the surface of the range and the bottom
of the cabinets.
8. A sufficient supply of hot water
is essential to good kitchen operation.

Cooking and serving center, keyed ia
the range, also planned with sufficient
work surface for serving foods easily.
2. Work should flow in one direction.
Steps will be saved if the work centers
are so arranged that the homemaker
moves continuously in one direction in
preparing meals. The starting point is
the Food Storage and Preparation Cen
ter planned around the refrigerator.
Since most people work from right to
left, equipment should be so arranged
that the flow Of work goes from right
to left. Counter surface between work
centers should be continuous.
8. Locate sink and diShwasher center
between the other two. Water is used
both in the preparation and cooking of
foods. Therefore, for greatest con-
venience the Sink and Dishwasher Cen
ter should be located between the Food
Storage and Preparation Center planned
around the refrigerator and the Cooking
and Serving Center keyed to the range.
4. There are seven basic types OF
kitchens. Most kitchens lend themselves

ARE YOU ADDING to, remodeling,
building new or rearranging your kit
chen? If so:
1. Plan your kitchen around three
work centers. So large a portion of
the homemaker's time is spent in her
kitchen, it is highly important that this
workshop" of hers be planned to save
as much time, work and energy as
possible. However, there is no need to
sacrifice beauty and charm in the cause
of efficiency. Both can be included in
the well-planned kitchen.
Just as meal-getting involves three
major tasks-preparing food, cooking it
and cleaning up afterwards-so also
should the well-planned kitchen contain
three work centers designed to take
care of three specific jobs. All in
gradients, utensils, cutlery-everything
needed for these three different types
of work should be kept in their respec-
tive work centers, right within easy
reach, so there is no unnecessary
trudging back and forth across the
kitchen. These three work centerS are:

laundry or the kitchen is not important.
The main thing is to have an adequate
supply of hot water available.
Proper lighting is another important
requirement in well-planned kitchen.
Each work center should have its own
lighting fixture if the homemaker is to
work without strain or fatigue. There
should also be good general illumina-
ton by ceiling lights with conveniently
placed wall switches.
Adequate wiring. 1t is essential that
the well-planned kitchen have suf-
ficient number of electric circuits. The
amount of electricity one circuit can
supply is limited. Too many appliances
operating at time on single electri-
cal circuit may overload that circuit
and cause it to go out of service. How
ever, if the appliances are attached to
several circuits, all will work without
interruption. Special heavy-duty cir
cults are required for the range and the
water heater.
Ventilation. No well-planned kitchen
is complete without a ventilating fan
to clear out cooking odors.
Plans for Step-saving ''U'-shaped
kitchen-designed by the Bureau of
Home Economics are available from
the Montana State College Extension
Service. To get these plans write the
Extension Service or call on your Home
Demonstration Agent The plans are
in form that one who can follow a
blue print can use them. They are
detailed plans for each cabinet There
are z sheets in the set of plans and
the cost is $2.1O. Money should ac-
company the order.

to one of seven basic types of arrange
ments. These types may be modified
to suit the shape and size of the room,
the location of doors, windows and so
forth. The ''U"-shaped kitchen is the
most efficient. The seven basic types
of kitchens are:
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1956-02-15

S. Avoid both too little or too much
counter surface. Too little counter work
space leads to confusion and resulting
fatigue on the part of the homemaker.
Too much adds needless steps and
wasted energy. For greatest efficiency,
there are standards for maximum and
minimum length for all counter sur
faces.
Of all food-preparation jobs, making
cookies and bread require the most
counter space. Allowing for this, a
mixing counter should be at least So
inches long, with "A inches more desira-
bic.
