PIPING. 



Wlould it be practicable to heat a house 

 22 ft. wide, 100 ft. long, side walls 5 

 ft. high, with six runs of 1-inch steam 

 pipe on each wall, using three runs for 

 Hows and three for returns on each side, 

 so that all the valves would be at the 

 shed end of the house? This it seems to 

 us would be quite a saving of time if 

 practicable. If not. why not? Espe- 

 cially if pipes have a good fall to drain 

 all condensation. L. S. 



Replying to L. S., as far as the heat- 

 ing of the greenhouse is concerned, there 

 is no objection to placing the pipes as 

 he describes them, but as the direct ra- 

 diation from six lines of 1-inch pipe 

 reaches a considerable distance, the 

 plants nearest the coils would be warm- 

 er and drier than those in the center 

 of the house, and will consequently re- 

 quire more attention in the matter of 

 watering, and if the plants in the green- 

 house are at all subject to the attacks 

 of red spider they would be liable to 

 suffer, as the intense heat in the spaces 

 behind the coils of six 1-inch pipes 

 placed vertically on the side wall fur- 

 nishes splendid "breeding places for such 

 pests, which it would be difficult to 

 reach under ordinary conditions with a 

 hose. 



In the house 100 ft. long, where the 

 benches have 18 inches of clear space 

 underneath and the boiler cellar is suffi- 

 ciently deep to let the steam main enter 

 the greenhouse below the floor line, it 

 is possible to make complete circulation 

 spread out below the benches and so 

 keep valves all at one end, as L. S. de- 

 scribes. For this system, however, the 

 house should stand level.
