HEATING. 



I contemplate building a carnation 

 house 24x100 ft., equal span, 14 ft. to 

 ridge. Please state what sized boiler 

 would heat it to about 60 degrees at 

 uight. Also whether steam or hot water 

 would be preferable. In either case 

 kindly state size and number of flows and 

 returns necessary. 



Which is more expensive to run — hot 

 water or steam? Do you prefer house 

 to run cast and west or north and south? 



F. E. C. 



For the heating of one house 100x24, 

 as described, hot water would be prefer- 

 able. The size of the boiler required 

 would depend somewhat upon the pat- 

 tern or make of boiler used. It should 

 have, however, not less than from 3\-> to 

 4 sq. ft. of grate surface and about 100 

 sq. ft. of heating surface. This house 

 would require 17 lines of 2-inch pipe, 

 arranged as heating coils beneath the 

 benches to maintain a temperature of 55 

 to 60 degrees on coldest nights. The cost 

 of maintenance for the heating ])lant for 

 the house of these proportions would be 

 practically the same, either for steam or 

 water. As to the location of the house, 

 I should prefer to run it north and 

 south, in order to get the greatest dura- 

 tion of effective sunlight on the plants, 

 possible. IIexkv W. Gibboxs.

[Most of the large carnation growers 

 now build their new houses running east 

 and west, even when equal span. Ed.] 



A French botanist has advanced the 

 idea of vaccination for plants. He pro- 

 poses to raise suitable cultures of para- 

 sitic fungi and inoculate plants to render 

 them proof against tlie attacks of the 

 parasites.
