Combination Laundry Tub and Dishwashing Sink
A saving of space and time was effected in a home kitchen by the use of a sink developed in a large kitchen. Two ordinary laundry tubs were installed with the faucets raised above the tubs, as shown. A sink of sheet zinc was fitted in the upper part of one tub; it has handles, and a strainer set in the bottom. The strainer is closed by a rubber stopper, and the sink becomes a dishpan. The sink is easily lifted out for cleaning, or for washing clothes. Another use for the sink, between meals, is for washing and preparing vegetables and fruits. The second tub has a wire dish-draining rack, in which the china is rinsed and sterilized by hot water from the faucet.—Mrs. Avis Gordon Vestal, Chicago, Ill.
