Dustoff Electric Fan Employeed in New Role
Electric fans have varied uses says Mrs. Ethel W. Self Kansas State College extension home management specialist in Manhattan. A fan can boost heating efficiency speed clothes drying and carry off cooking odors. Used at slow speed it distributes heat evenly saving fuel while a fan near a radiator helps warm rooms with poor insulation. It can dry laundry indoors during wash day and aid with damp outerwear. A portable fan facing a window can vent cooking odors during boiling cabbage and frying onions.
