OXSIDEIUNQ the Importance of
the kitchen to the rest of tln
home. It seems strange that it
should very often be the least
attractive room from every point of
view in the house. We find it tucked
off in some dark corner with little or
no ventilation, its wall and floor cov
ering dark uud dingy and Its equip
ment so meager It would be Impossible
to find any pleasure in working with
them.
The kitchen is the workroom of the
home. Its arrangement, pleasant or
otherwise, very often give the key
note of conditions in the home. My
Idea of a real kitchen Is this: It
should be as bright and cheery as any
room in the house. I would much pre
fer a gloomy parlor than n dark, un
pleasant kitchen. If possible 1 should
have a north and cast exposure. This
would insure sunlight In the morning
and a cool breeze on hot summer after
noons. Then 1 should be careful to
have a good view from the kitchen
window, something beautiful to look
out upon, like a stately tree, a bit of
green lawn or a trim vegetable garden.
The outlook from kitchens In towns
and cities is too often brick walla of
adjoining buildings, untidy backyards
or high board fences. From kitchens
In the country we often look out upon
an unsightly woodpile or barnyard
filled with a clutter of old farm imple
ments. With such daily views it la no
wonder If the women, who must spend
three-fourths of their time in the
kitchen, have very little love for house
work.
Tbere should be at least two win
dows and. If Ksslble. un outside door
opposite one window in order to have
good ventilation at all times. The
kitchen should not be unnecessarily,
large, but Its size will depend on the
number of persons In, the family and
the amount of work that Is to be done

In 1l Too much space between the
different pieces of furniture necessi
tates too many unnecessary 6teps. A
suitable moderate sized kitchen is
about 12 by 14 feet.
The kitchen should be convenient to
the dining room, either opening direct
ly into It or, stilt better, having the
pantry between the rooms. In the lat
ter case there should be a cupboard
with sliding doors opening into both
kitchen and pantry for convenience
lu setting the table and removing
dishes to the kitchen. The cut gives
a plan of a convenient kitchen, show
ing position of windows and doors,
also the larger pieces of furniture.
In this plan uoto the position of the
refrigerator, which can be reached
from tho outside bo that ice may be
put Into It without coming into tho
kitchen. There la also a window In
the cool room to which a window cup
board can be attached. This room
with Its cupboard will tako the place
of the refrigerator In winter and may
be used as a baking room in hot
weather.
Tho sink, with draining board, la lo
cated on the side next the pantry.
Sliding doors are arranged at tbo back
so that dishes washed in tbo sink may
be placed on the pantry shelves with
out going Into the pantry Itself. An
other convenient feature In the ar
rangement of this kitchen is the posi
tion of windows between range and
work table, giving good light and' ven
tilation. If possible avoid having a
door leading upstairs opening in the
kitchen, because in such cases It is al
most Impossible to keep the odors of
cooking from penetrating to the up
stairs rooms.
Wall and Floor Covering.
Tho kitchen to be sanitary In every
particular should be finished in some
way that will permit of frequent wash
ing. The best wall covering Is the sim
plest and roost easily cared for mate
rial that can be purchased. Tbere is
nothing better for this purpose than
sunitas, a material similar to oilcloth.
The first cost Is a little more than

J Wall paper Is not u desirable covering ,
I for a kitchen wall because It absorbs j
I mulsture aud odors and cnunut bo
cleaned satisfactorily,
i For the lltnir the best covering Is In
; laid linoleum. This to my mind Is j
better tluui the polished tloor, which Is ,
' always slippery and Is hard on the ;
feet. Then there Is the painted tloor. j
which has both advantages and dis
advantages, chief aiming the latter be- j
! lug not very durable qualities. The
kitchen tloor should not be covered I
with carpet, because thnt Is tusanl- ;
tnry, uelther should It be devoid of
any covering and so require scrubbing.
This is one of the Items of work which
should le eliminated from the house-1
keeper's schedule. The white sanded !
floors, tables, etc.. are attractive to
the eye and a Joy to n certain type of j
housekeeper, but they represont too
much euergy and labor to be Included
In modern methods. Floors should be
covered with some material easily
cleaned, und tables, sinks, shelves, etc., t
should be painted or covered with zinc,
tile or oilcloth. The zinc table and the
tile sink are a lasting pleasure and
lessen work to such an extent that
they soon more than pay for the Initial
cost.
Kitchen Furniture.
This should be simple, durable aud
adequate for the needs of tho house
keeper. The kind and number of
pieces will largely depend on the char-
acter of the home. But in every kltch-
en there should be a good ranee, at
least one work table and a convenient '
sink supplied with running water and
modern plumbing. These three articles
should be near neighbors because they
are so frequently used at the same
time.
Whatever the fuel coal, wood, gas j
or gasoline it should be burned In a
good range, one that Is perfect In all
Its parts and equipped with a good ,
baking oven. No part of the housefur-
nlshlng Is more Important than the 1
kitchen stove and no piece of farm ma
chinery, however necessary, should be
bought by sacrificing the new stove.
Since the preparation of food for the '
table Is an absolute necessity In every
home, the stove, whatever Its style.
should be as good as any part of the
equipment of the entire establishment.
The work table should be high
enough that the worker need not stand '
In an ucoomforMble pexkluH tWiftV
Ironing or baking. Kitchen tables are
made thirty inches high, which Is not
enough for a woman five feet six Inch-,
es In height, and to bend over It. as ,
she always must, results In an unnec- I
essary weariness or backache. Either
the low table should be set upon sup
ports or a higher one should be order
ed. The high stool is a simple piece i
of furniture which should be in every
kitchen. It can be sunned under the
work table wllcn not In use and Is a '
convenient scat while preparing vege
tables. Ironing and doing the number-
less other tasks which can lie per-1
formed sitting Just as well as stand-1
ing.
A clock Is necessary In the kitchen. '
also a pair of strong scissors, a pin- '
cushion with pins and some coarse nee- i
dies and thread, both white and black, j
These are constantly needed, and It
makes unnecessary steps to be obliged !
to go to the living room for them. It .
Is hardly possible to have too many
drawers, shelves and cupboards, and
yet these ought not to be used to en-'
courage dlsorderllness. Tbere Is some-'
times a temptation to hideaway things i
In cupboards or drawers that would
better be destroyed at once tbap have
them add to the task of straightening
up later on.
The modern kitchen may have other
useful pieces of furniture In addition
to the-above. If there Is money enough
to provide them. Among these may
be mentioned a water or electric motor
or even a small one horsepower gaso
line engine, any one of which will run
the washing machine mangle, churn,
cream separator and can be attached
to the sewing machine. This little
contrivance is not so expensive that. It
need be excluded from even moderate
homes, considering the amount of
work It will accomplish and tho
strength It will save. When a woman
Is obliged to do all ber housework it
ought certainly to be counted as one of ,
the necessities. The kitchen cabinet
with separate compartments for all i
kinds of groceries and supplies la 1
sometimes preferred to the pantry. It
la entirely a matter of personal prcf-
erence wnicn should be chosen, ror
both are most convenient. Itcason
able care must, however, be taken not
to leave groceries lying about loosely
In the cabinet, for theso will attract
Insects as well as mice, nut tho
housekeeper endowed with even the j
most ordinary degreo of order may
easily avoid such a misfortune. '
xne eicctnc or gasouno iron is a
handy little appliance for making
kitchen work lighter and Is Inexpen
sive when usefulness and labor sav
ing qualities are balanced with dol
lars and cents. In the country, of
course, the gasoline Iron Is generally
the only one possible, but these bavo
uow been brought to a degree of per
fection thut makes them satisfactory.
The Use of the Kitchen.
Ono last Important point to remem
ber in furnishing a kitchen is that Its
real purpose Is u workroom, not a liv
ing or dining room. A workroom
should have Its tools conveniently ar
ranged within easy reach of the work
man. All utensils and evidences of
kitchen work should not bo kept In
other parts of the house or stowed
away In obscure places In order that
tho room may be presentable whan
strangers come. The tnodera kKtncn
Is not intended to fill tho place of a
reception room, and only In exception-
al cases should It bo used as a dining
room,
