1. Frigidarium
in Conservatory
2. Cooling them
by artificial cold
3 Ante-cooling Room
by the natural
cold of the evening
The Ante-cooling
room aught to be
as away as possible
& thatched open
shed- the thatch
reaching down very
low
A Windmill on
the top of the Frigidarium?
- But
would not this require
it to be stronger than
would otherwise be
necessary?
Could the Windmill
be used for winding
up weights during
high winds for
raising things when
the wind failed.
The WindMill combined
with Bramah's
engine for
treasuring of force.
Required as
to be com with
the Windmill, an
Anemomter for
keeping a constant
Register of the force
of the Wind.
It should have
either that, or
Water or some other
constant burthen
to spend itself
upon whe not
employd upon the
occasional Burthen.

L parts of the
Frigidarium &c as
are not used for
Preservation, may
be employd as
Warehouses for
articles that are
periodically cheap
and dear - Caals - Corn &c
Pod Current
would shew the
differences, and
Hence the gain to
be made.
Could not Wind
in this way and
with this elevation
be used for supplying
the Houses round
about with water?
At least for Cascades
& other Water Works
for the Panopticon
Grounds.

2. Corn
3. Hay
Here a tract of
land down the River
in the Essex Side
clos by the River
side (no matter how
low down) converting
it into Water Meadow
by Wind Mills:
or Ass Mills, drwaing
the Water occasionally
from the River.

The Graduated - Temperature House might serve for experiments in the preservation of feeds in agravity state The seeds being kept in air of the ordinary density - in rarified or exhausted air - and in condensed air. The ground keeps seeds ina porous state - why?- by uniformity of temperature and the absence of the quantity of air necessary for germinating. Encycl. Brit. tit. Gadus Fisherman are well acquainted with the use of the Air bladder or SOund of the Cod; and are very dextrous in perforating this part of the live fish with a needle, in order to disengage the inclosed air: for without this operation it could not be kept under water in the Well-boats and brought fresh to market.... The glutinous parts about the head lose their delicate flavour after it has been 24 hour ???? out of the water even in winter, in which these and other fish of this genus are in highest season.
18 Aug 1798 Frigidarium Immersion in water appears to be a preservative against m???alchiness: probably because atmospheric air is necessary to that species of vegetation- Extract from Encyclop Britannica article Flowering of Bulbous ?orts Plants Sometimes the roots will become mouldy in several parts while they stand above the Water, and the cleaning of them is to no purpose for it will eat aand spread the further, and frequently eat through two or three of their coats. In this case they must immediately covered with Water: when the mould will be stopped, and the roots become souns, and flower as well as those which never had any such distemper. If the roots are suffered to remain in Water all the year, they will not decay; but will flower again at their proper season, and that as vigorously as those which have been taken out and dried. To preserve Currant or Gooseberries ripe instead of water fill up the vessel with expressed juice of the same. SO Cherries or Raspberries with Currant juice boiled & clarified SO with HArtshorn Jelly using fruit juice instead of water - and being put into a conical pot, the mixture may be drawn outentire as out of a mould. Even Strawberries & Mulberries might perhaps be thus preserved. If necessary, extract the Air previously by and Air Pump.
