The story of how it got there has taken on aspects of myth and legend.

Le nouveau procédé se faisait à l'aide d'un sasseur et de cylindres en fer plutôt que de pierres pour moudre le blé. Dans les années 1880, l'expansion des chemins de fer et l'attrait des profits réalisés en semant le blé Red Fife ont encouragé les gens à s'installer dans les Prairies.

Why Floor Insulation Works. Heat doesn’t rise. The myth that heat rises was used for many years to justify not insulating floors at all. That led to some very cold feet. It's hot air that rises. An air mass that is warmer than the air around it will rise in relation to that cooler air. The process of hot air rising is called convection. It's only one way that heat can escape a building. Two others are conduction and radiation. Floor insulation limits all three modes of heat loss. A warmer floor reduces the temperature difference that drives convection. Floor insulation also directly impedes conduction and radiation to the colder air below the floor.  1, record 18, English, - floor%20insulation
