Hoover, Professor of Home Economics, Moscow, Idaho A YEAR ago the -writer visited four hundred farm homes in Southern Idaho. Before the home visits were made the women of each community or neighborhood were assembled at a central meeting place and were asked to consider the best labor-saving device they possessed and if possible show it to the visitor when she called at their home. Pictures were taken of many of the best devices and this dryer was one of the devices which seemed especially interesting. Judging by the results sampled the efficiency of the dryer can- not be questioned. Figure I shows the completed dryer with ventilating holes at the base and apex. To Make Two panes of glass 36 by 36 inches each are required. Figure II shows one of these glasses cut diagonally so as to form two right-angled triangles. Figure III shows the second glass cut so as to form a triangle with two equal sides. In Figure III there is a waste of the two upper corners of the glass. These three triangles are cased with wood in much the same way as a win- dow sash. For the base of the dryer build a square wooden platform of the same dimensions as the base of the cased glass. This should be placed on a table or substantial frame in the dooryard where it will have a good exposure to the sun, i. e., place the triangle ABC on the south side of the base, as shown in Figure I. On the east and west sides of the wooden base place the two tri- anges shown in Figure II, A' and A"
