Useful for guru.*pd Smelt Town Fleusas, Not an Ideal 19yatete: flowever- Sowething Better Later On -The Making, Installing and iM)Btrag, of the Tack Described. (Coptrlbutea by Ontario Department or • Agriculture, .Toronto.) My last article described how the farm pump on shallow wells may be located Inside the house or stable, thua doing away with the carrying of water. Thte arrangement, of course, will not provide for , water under pressure, and. therefore, a complete plumbing system is not poste Bible, nor is hot water made avail- able To secure these great advan- tages, it is necessary to either ele- vate the water to some form of tank at least a few feet higher than the highest fixture in the house, or pump the water into a strong metal high pressure tauk against the enclosed air which when compressed la to about one-half to uneathird the vol- ume of the tank will create suffi- cient power to force tke water out when the faucets are opened. The first arrangement or Hystern is us- ually called the Attic Tank water system, the second, the Compressed' Water System. Why Called ••Attic Tank System." This systeut is popularly known as the Attic 'l'lutk System because the water supply tan k which suppl h's water timer pressure is usually lo- cated in the attic of the house. To get enough pressure to force the 1..iter through the hot water boiler and the culla in the furnace or kitch- en range and supply any fixture ag sink or bath tub with water at a reasonable rate of flow, It is neces- sary to get the water tank a con. sulerable distance above the highest fixture. To secure. say 36 lbs. pres- sure at the kitchen faucets the tank would steed to be at least 80 feet higher than the kitchen, so you see that in order to get any pressure worth while the tank must be lo- cated at the highest Possible Level lnside the house; hence the attic lo- cution. More pressure and hence faatrr flow 'at fixtures may be had by locating the tank outside the house un the top of a high tower, for example, just above the wind mill, but outside tanks are not popu- lar for evident reasons. The System 15 Not an Ideal One. The Attie Tank System has gi pretty fair satisfaction where p p, rly put In and cared for, and the fore has been really worth while, Is doubtful, however, if many m of this type of water system will installed, as the more modern on which f will describe in subsequ articles, are very much superior. T chief objections to this system a first, the water tank la liable freeze unless well protected, the to may spring a leak and seriously da age the interior of the home and t furnishings, the supply is not hi enough to give good pressure, y have to wait a long time to get pail of water, and as the tank mu of necessity be pretty small, pum ing must be resorted to very fr net q rtl in r Y order to Ree enou ou water on hand; and lastly, the wat has to be pumped up to the tan by hand pump and few people en: pumping even if the pumping Is do indoors. How to Make the Tank. The tank itself is usually co structed of pine or spruce plank, to gued and grooved, well held togethe by iron rods and the inside line with Al quality galvanized iron. tight top should be used in order t keep dust and dirt out of it On on aide near the top there should b Installed an overflow pipe leading t the outside or to a sink or some fix Lure below, preferably in the kitchen so that the one who is pumping ma know by flow from pipe when til tank is full. The large enough to hold aat least shouldnk thre or els of housesrit isrPossible toor. arrange0fo running part of the rain water fro, the roof into this tank, in whirl case considerable pumping is ellm inated.. The tank should be located preferably over a partition so that the weight of water would not cause a sag in the Boor of the attic. A tt ntetal tank about hire feet long and Iwo two feet in diameter strapped to the ceiling -above the bathroom might be used instead of the wooden one; in the attic. The Pilling of the Tank. As stated, the tank is usually filled by .i hand pump located in the kitch- en or cellar. The pump used for this purpose moat be a force -pump in order to lift the water to the required level. If electricity or small gas engine were available either might be used to pump up the water. Sometimes the tank is filled by wind- mill and sometimes by an hydraulic ram operating at the spring a COn- siderable distance from the house. Write the Department of Physics, O. A.

In Canada, such in- stincts for gambling as exist are severely regulated, bookmakers in the eyes of the law being on a .par with bootleggers, the parimutueis controlling betting at races and even church rales being frowned on, so that it is with something like shock that one learns that in no part of the world does gambling hold such un- bridled sway as in Canada's sister - Dominion, Australia. Nowhere is it more common or vicious, says Chas. Franklin Thwing, president emeritus of Western Reserve university, who gees on: In Australia perhaps its most usual form is found in horse racing. The Melbourne Cup is .its peak. The semi- legaliged corporation known es Tatts" represents its more insid- ious and its more public methods. The sums of money which are risked in_ horse racing or in the constant "drawings" aggregate millions of dol- lars. The commonness of the pas- sion is one of its wonders. Leaving out the clergy, it can be said, with a nearer approach be the truth than is common in most statements touching social phenomena, that nearly every one in the two great island contin- ents of Australia and New Zealand bets and in some form gambles. The causes of this universal do- minance are both general and partic- ular. Among the causes for gambl- ing in all times and places is the instinct or the will for taking a abo chance, or the willingness to get a reward larger than the expenditure, trier to gain something for nothing. But, besides these general origins to of the current passion, there are tors certain cauiisk which specially belong , ald to and work in bhe great Southland, 1 These causes are even mere interest- ing and more significant than the factitself. tae f. One cause of the ppwer of the passion lies in that omnipresent con- dition known as the weather, The Australian lives in an atmosphere of makes The weatherThdroughteBor un - unmakes, the rain makes. If the skies become brass, the grass dies or is dead ere it has sprouted, the spring -thou and brooks become dry sands, the wheat fields are dust, the cattle and the sheep perish. There is no corn in the granary and no money in the bank. If the rain falls, prosperity blesses the land. The farmer or herdsman can indeed afford to lose one harvest in four, and yet prosper. Yet, whe- ther a forthcoming season shall spell bard times or prosperity he knows The instinct of luck is thus created. The transfer of the interest to the racing stables is easy, some would say natural, even inevitable. The same instinct is nourished by the historic, as well as by the na- tural condition.
