Tree-Covered Land-Forms For Noise Control, David I. Cook, David F. Haverbeke
Tree-Covered Land-Forms For Noise Control, David I. Cook, David F. Haverbeke
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The objective of this study was to determine means for controlling intrusive noise by combining trees and shrubs with land-forms or other solid barriers. The solid barriers would provide some immediate relief, and the plant materials would increase the protection as they matured.
An Analysis Of Pressure Gasoline And Pressure Kerosene Stoves, Arnold E. Baragar
An Analysis Of Pressure Gasoline And Pressure Kerosene Stoves, Arnold E. Baragar
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
During the past few years inquiries have been received regarding the cost of operation, efficiency, and performance of pressure gasoline and pressure kerosene stoves. Because of the method of operation and the use of gasoline as fuel, safety from fire and carbon monoxide has been frequently questioned. Not only is it necessary to have technical information about this type of appliance in order to compare it with other types but it is further important to know whether one type of burner is superior to another; whether one type of oven construction will give better results than another and in general …

A Study Of Five Commercial Electric Stoves, A. E. Baragar, Edna B. Snyder
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Five commercial electric stoves having major variations in types of surface units, in the construction, lining, and insulation of the oven, and in the retail price were studied to determine (1) the efficiency and time of heating of the various surface units, and (2) the merits of differently constructed ovens.
A Study Of Washing Machines, Edna B. Snyder, Morton P. Brunig
A Study Of Washing Machines, Edna B. Snyder, Morton P. Brunig
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The purpose of this investigation was to study the performance and constructional features of various types of washing machines. The machines studied were of four types, classified on the basis of mechanical construction. The types were dolly, gyrator, cylinder, and vacuum. Eight machines were studied, four of the gyrator type, two of the dolly type, one of the cylinder type, and one of the vacuum type. The material reported in this bulletin includes the following: (1) cleansing action of various washing machines and relation of cleanness of fabric to length of washing period, temperature of water, and size of load; …
A Study Of Kerosene Cook Stoves, Edna B. Snyder
A Study Of Kerosene Cook Stoves, Edna B. Snyder
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The purpose of this study was to learn the advantages and disadvantages of various types of kerosene cook stoves used in Nebraska. Kerosene cook stoves have burners of four types. Ten stoves representing the four types were studied as follows: four stoves having long-chimney wick burners; three stoves having short-chimney wick burners; two stoves having short chimneys with asbestos kindlers or lighting rings; one stove having wickless burners. To determine comparative performance of the four types of burners, they were tested for: (1) time required to heat a known quantity of water through a known range of temperature; (2) thermal …
