A Nichols' Worth of
Comment On This and That
By HARMAN
Washington, June 21 U.PJ
One of these days the farm
folks may be all glassed in
mom, dad, tne
kids, the hired
man, plus the
sow and the
cow and bid
die, the hen.
They'll be
cooler in the
summer and
warmer in the
winter, same as
the city slick
ers. All of this is
pos s i b 1 e be
cause of a new
device that can
depict the angle at which the sun
will shine on a building in any
part of the country at any time
of day. It was demonstrated at
the annual meeting of the Ameri
can Society of Agricultural
Engineers.
The instrument is known as
a aolarometer and was perfected
by engineers of Libby-Owens-Ford
Glass company. It was used
to show how the width of a roof
overhang or shade can be de
termined to give a building the
right shade to make it warmer
in December and cooler in July.
Buildings Studied

fMtur Wrttw
David C. Sprague, an agricul
tural engineer ing consultant
from Pennsylvania State college,
has spent 5V4 month! looking
over buildings where the ma'
chine has been used to put the
right kind of glass in the right
places.
You don't use the machine on
the farm just the glass usu
ally of picture-w i n d o w size
instead of the French-window
type generally found in old-
fashioned cow-barns, hog houses,
and homes. In a solar-designed
building, the large glass must be
self-insulating shaded in the
summer and open to the sun in
the winter.
Instrument Complicated
The instrument itself is com
plicated, at least for guys like
me. It must be set to demonstrate
the angle the sun will shine on
a building in any community.
Then the gimmick sends a mech
anical "sun" in an arc from dawn
to dusk in the proper path for
that latitude .All of that was part
of the demonstration.
According to Sprague, such
glass of the modern double-pane
kind used in ranch-type homes
already has been put to practical
use on farms.
The scientist says that's all a
matter of humidity. If you can

Dust Collects
'"When smaller panes are used
in barns," he said, "dust and dirt
collects and such windows won't
last very long. I've seen timothy
hay growing out of the sills, it
was so damp. It's better, too, if
you can air-condition a barn."
The Pennsylvania agricultur
ist said that isn't as silly as it
sounds. A farmer worth a fork
of hay can install the equipment
himself and the whole works,
blower and all, won't cost more
than $150. If he has electricity,
he can run the business for a
few cents a day and can have
more contented cows and louder-

Standard develops peacetime use for atomic energy
p
Salt Lake Pipe Line Company (a Stand
ard Oil Company of California sub
sidiary) is completing a 566-mile pipe
line between Salt Lake City and Pasco,
Wash. The line will serve many points
with s variety of petroleum products.
How could these products be kept sep
arated. ..products ranging from diesct
fuel to high-octane gasoline. ..as they i
follow each other through this com
mon carrier line? Atomic energy has
efficiently solved this problem.
Each rime a change to a new product
is made, very minute amounts of radio,
active tracer material are put into the
fine . . . tracer material prepared espe
cially for this tne hi the Government
atomic pile at Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Using a Geiger Counter, operators at the destination tell
exactly when the radioactive tracer arrives in the pipe...
and they can switch the new product into the proper tank.
The tracer is so diluted in each batch that only the record
ing of a Geiger Counter can tell you it's there. Its radio
activity will be tar less than that of a luminous watch dial
This is one of the first commercial uses of atomic energy
in American industry. But it won't b the last.
Our scientists. ..and those of other companies... are fast
learning how to make this great development work for
peaceful purposes. YooU see die results of this knowledge
soon . . . not only in improved methods of transportation
but in new products.
