. Garden cities in theory and practice; being an amplification of a paper on the potentialities of applied science in a garden city, read before Section F of the British Association . zone,the necessary sewerage and supplies of water, gas,and electricity, that the difficulties of the housingquestion not only at once disappear, but that themanufacturers are put into a position to obtaintheir works at less capital expenditure, not only inregard to buildings, but also to the installation ofmuch of their plant, notably their motive-powerplant. In addition, the annual cost of runningtheir works would experience a most remarkablediminution. There are many reasons for this, alltoo technical and intricate to be here touched need only cite the well-known fact that the costof motive power varies in a most surprising degreein inverse ratio with the size of the plant will be again exemplified in regard to the firstGarden City, in which, from the commencement, itis proposed to employ cheap gas for motive powerby that system in which a valuable by-product isobtained. More concerning this and other technicaldetails, however, will be found in Chapter IX. 390 B. Exterior of a Worknmns Dwelling1, Van Marken Garden Village.
