Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ventilation: For Dwellings, Rural Schools and Stables In the preparation of this brief treatise the aim has been to reach parents, teachers and school officers of rural and other elementary schools, and the owners and caretakers of all classes of live stock, and lay before them the foundation facts and principles underlying the growing and imperative demand for a more nearly adequate supply of pure air than is being continuously maintained in the vast majority of homes, offices and stables today. In presenting the subject the effort has been to make the treatment suggestive to teachers, introducing lines of simple experimentation and arithmetical calculations, so that they may more surely enlist the attention and cooperation of their community in the immediately practical aspects of the subject. It is hoped, too, that all owners and caretakers of live stock will find the treatment of stable ventilation sufficiently explicit and illustrative to enable them to readily and effectively solve their own problems. In applying the principles used in stable ventilation to dwelling, offices and school-houses, where mechanical appliances or hot air furnaces are not used, we are convinced that there are no practical difficulties in the way and that when such a system of ventilation is combined with the warming as suggested it will be found thoroughly efficient. In the effort to be brief, and yet have the presentation sufficiently fundamental and explicit so as not to mislead, it has been necessary, in the treatment of dwellings and schools, to omit details, yet it is hoped enough has been given so that with the aid of builders and local architects installations may be readily made.
