On account of the ascent of heated fluids, let bodies be placed
at greater elevation in proportion to their temperatures: The
coldest beingin the lowest situation & the rest in strata forming a gradualsufficiently
extensive range of temperature, in successive gradation.
N.B. Water must not be used in temper.res between 32o& 40o
as it contracts instead of expanding by heat. Blagden.

2. Interposition of NonSlow Conductors of heat.
i. Materials
ex. gr. Wool or Cotton (raw.) hair -straw, hay, (chopped?)
(qu. proper degree of compression of wool are?)
Ashes, Charcoal, Wood — Glass.
(N.B. In Scotland coals retained for a night almost at the heat of ignition by
being surround buried in ashes.)
ii. Disposition: In concentric shells: for lateral communication of
heat by the motion of heated air favours the communication of heat
as much as its ascent.
3. Surface diminished as much as possible.
Magazine of ice in one mass - in the centre of building
Walls of the buillding whitewashed. H
