The Simplest Way of Getting Running Water Into the Kitchen. [Prepared by United States department of agriculture.] The convenience and comfort of having running water at least in the kitchen and in the bathroom if pos- sible are so well recognized that engi- neering specialists of the United States department of agriculture have been giving attention to the simplest as well as to the more ex- pensive methods of saving the farm housewife the carrying of water in buckets from the well or spring up the porch steps and through doors into the house. Almost any system of obtaining running water in the kitchen is bet- ter than none at all. If the well or cistern is located within'a short dis- tance of the house about the simplest and perhaps the cheapest method is GOOD TYPE OF ELEVATED TANR. to place a pitcher or other pump over a sink in the kitchen and extend the suction pipe to the well. The suc- tion lift should not exceed twenty feet or the pump will not operate satisfactorily, if at all. It should also be remembered that water flowing through a pipe meets with consider- able resistance due to friction, which increases as the velocity of the water and the length of the pipe increase and as the diameter of the pipe di- minishes. Elbows and bends in the pipe greatly increase the friction. Pump manufacturers give informa- tion in regard to this frictional loss, which should always be considered in arranging a pumping system in the kitchen or elsewhere. An elevated water supply tank may be placed in the attic, on the roof, on the windmill tower, on a special tower or on the silo.. It must be high enough to give the desired pressure at points where the water is used. The tank may be of wood or galvanized metal. Its size will depend on the amount of water used daily in the house. A 250 to 500 gallon tank is sufficient for the average family, although some have a much larger tank, so that a supply suf- ficient to last several days may be maintained. A larger tank is also nec- essary where water is supplied to the house and barns. The simplest system of this kind is one with the tank in the attic or on the roof, supplying water to the kitchen only. When the expense can be af- forded a hot water tank connected with the range may be placed in the kitchen and the water plumbing be ex- tended to a bathroom. The pump for this system must be a force pump, which not only raises wa- ter to its own level by suction, but forces it to greater heights, according to the power applied. The pump may be placed over the well or in any other convenient spot as long as the suction lift does not exceed twenty feet. A three way valve on such a pump per- mits the operator to direct the water to the tank or through the pump spout, ag desired. The pump may be operated by hand, but where much water is to be pumped to a considerable height a windmill, a small gas engine or an electric motor will save much time and exertion. If the location of the pump, which should be convenient to the en- gine, necessitates a long suction line the size of the pipe should be increased and all unnecessary bends or fittings avolded in order to lessen the friction. The great objection to an elevated tank system is that in the colder cli- mates there is danger of the water in the tank freezing. This is particularly . Hogan/ objectionable when the tank is located in the attic, where considerable dam- age may be caused if it should burst. It is also necessary to provide an es- pecially strong support for the tank. Another objection is that if located in the attic the tank is likely to catch considerable filth. It should in such cases be easily accessible for more or less frequent cleaning. It is well also to cover the tank to prevent, as far as possible, the -entrance of dirt and vermin, and when placed on a tower outside it should be covered to pre- vent the breeding of mosquitoes. The great advantages of this sys- tem are its cheapness and simplicity. All that is needed are a force pump, a storage tank, a pipe from the pump to the tank, a pipe from the tank to the point at which water is used and ac- companying fixtures. The tank should have an overfiow pipe, particularly if located in the attic. Dr. and Mrs. G. M.
