The advantage ofthe method of taking fresh air represented in Fig. 48 is. Fig. 48.—Veutiiiition of school room which must contain the heater. that when there is little or no fire in the heater to force adraft, the combined effect of wind pressure and wind suc-tion may be utilized. A damper in the ventilating flue atC permits the amount of air moving to be controlled at anytime. Ventilation of Stables. 107 Ventilation of Dairy Stables. In the details of stable ventilation there must be almostendless variation to meet individual conditions. Notwith-standing this, the principles governing construction are fewand have already been stated in general terms. Because themotive power usually available in stable ventilation is bothsmall and variable in intensity it is of the highest impor-tance that strict attention be given to all essential details ofconstruction necessary to adequate efficiency. The one detail of paramount importance in every systemof stable ventilation is the outtake flue. It is, in function
