YOUR
KITCHEN
Design And Remodeling Ideas
YOUR OWN SPACE
When you’re renovating
your kitchen, it is almost as
important to have adequate
space between the work areas
as in the work areas them
selves.
Work centers--such as
those for cooking, refriger
ation, storage--should be
planned so that movement
between them is as efficient
and direct as possible. A rule
of thumb for measurement
of this total work area is be
tween 13 feet and 22 feet (if
you have an average kitchen
between 100 and 160 cubic
feet of floor space). No single
arm of the work area triangle
should measure less than 4‘A
feet. If possible, plan the
center so that traffic through
the room does not pass
through the working triangle.
Plan adequate aisles be
tween activity centers, sug
gest home economists at the
Whirlpool Corporation. Two
people should be able to bend
down, back-to-back, without
touching. Between opposite
work counters allow at least
48 inches; if two or more
people are likely to be sharing
the kitchen, allow 54 to 64
inches.
What everybody needs--in
the kitchen as in life-is his
own space. Remodeling with
forethought can provide this

where 90 percent of the
riders on public transit are
over 65 years old. If it
weren’t for our programs, a
lot of them wouldn’t have
any way to go to the grocery
store or to their doctors.
“We’re also working on a
housing program for rural
areas, because that’s where
most of our substandard
housing is. All you ever hear
about are the slums in
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh,
but we’ve got more people
living in shacks in rural
Pennsylvania. We’re trying
to get a self-help program
started. We want to help
people buy building
materials in bulk, so they
can build their own homes.
This kind of thing could be a
tremendous help to the
people who need homes, and
it wouldn’t require a huge
amount of state funds. And I
think it’s the kind of program
that legitimately belongs in
the Department of
Agriculture.”
Mrs. Alexander said
they’re trying to keep costs
down with the rural tran
sportation program, too.
Programs are currently
operating mostly in the
western part of the state.
“Every county has a lot of
different government and
social agencies, and a lot of
these agencies already have
vans that they use for
transporting people. We
found cases of overlapping
routes, where two or three'
vans would go to one area to
pick up one or two people
each. This is wasteful. We’ve
set up dispatching systems
to coordinate all the vans so
we 'can eliminate the
duplication.”
Although she is busy with a
myriad of duties that seem
far removed from produc
tion agriculture, Mrs.
Alexander said that one of
her goals was to do what she
could to help preserve the
institution of family far
ming. “I think we need to
keep the small, diversified
family farm operation.
That’s why 80 percent of this
department’s research
money goes into production
agriculture, mostly through
supplemental payments to
Penn State and the
University of Pennsylvania.

EVERY WEEK—AND HAVE A CLEANER BULK TANK!
If you need a new, larger bulk milk tank investigate the new
Model "Seventies" ZERO! For it’s the only farm bulk milk tank on
the market today that has a completely-automated, built-in, “push
button” self-cleaning and sanitizing system. Other bulk milk tank
manufacturers have copied ZERO’S round design and vacuum. But
there’s still no bulk tank cleaning system that cleans as thoroughly
as ZERO’S patented, built-in SPATTER-SPRAY Automatic Washer.
See above how the Spatter-Spray’s propellers hurl a cross-fire of
detergent solution —with "tornado” force —against the tank’s
entire, stainless steel interior for thorough cleaning that’s necessary
for high-quality milk Official records show bacteria averages have
been greatly reduced. Standard capacities, 100 through 6000 gallons.
Has dust-tight, insect-tight lids And many more advantages.
FEATURING:
No Wash Pump to hook up
No electrical cord to fray
Prevents shock or electncution
No spray nozzles to clog
Hot water stays in tank, not cooled pumping
through hoses - results better wash
