50 Barclay Street, NEW YORK. 



JAMESTOWN, N. Y. 



Christmas has come and gone and 

 the demand for flowers of all kinds 

 never better. Holly and other greenerj- 

 went well at very good prices. The Lake 

 View Rose Gardens were taxed to the 

 utmost and whilst they handled im- 

 mense quantities of roses and carna- 

 tions, there was a shortage in several 

 lines. Taking into consideration the 

 long absence of sunlight stock was of 

 excellent quality. Hea\y orders for 

 New Year's kept Supt. Roney on the 

 anxious seat, and .»r. A. N. Broad- 

 head realizes there is not yet sufficient 

 glass to produce enough stock to lill 

 orders at such times as these, ^\^lat 

 was most needed was a wizard to change 

 dull weather into bright. 



Plants sold well. Palms and Boston 

 ferns, with azaleas, were in strong force. 

 The Garden's retail store made a hand- 

 some appearance under the skillful 

 hand of Artist Heclas, who did himself 

 proudly. 



The" Walter Mott Seed & Bulb Co. 

 made quite a showing with seasonable 

 goods. One show window was occupied 

 by an Indian basket weaver during the 

 holiday week and created quite an at- 

 traction, at the same time proving a 

 paying advertisement. A department for 

 grain and feed has been added. Tliis 

 will assist in promoting local trade. 

 Walter is much encouraged with the first 

 year's business for the new house. 



E.M. 



TROUBLE WITH BOILER. 



Replying to H. M. 51., in view of the 

 fact tliat two or three hours' firing is 

 necessary and assuming that the boiler 

 in question is as stated, a 10 horse-power 

 of usual proportions, the trouble is 

 caused, undoubtedly, by defective com- 

 bustion, which may be due to several 

 causes, for instance, improper firing and 

 manipulation of the dampers, poor fuel, 

 or some high building, trees or other ob- 

 struction causing a down draft on the 

 chimney. We would suggest that all the 

 flues be thoroughly cleaned out and an 

 inspection be made to see that no cold 

 air leaks in at the chimney connection 

 or at any point other than through the 

 ash pit, then try it with a thin fire. If 

 this does not give the desired results, a 

 higher stack will be necessary. 



Your correspondent does not state 

 Tiow much radiation he is operating from 

 the boiler. In any case it should not 

 -exceed 900 square feet, measuring all 

 mains; 800 feet we consider a reasonable 

 amount in greenhou.se heating to put on 

 a standard 10-horse-power boiler.

The Denver & Rio Grande Railway 

 ■has announced its intention of beautify- 

 ing the stations along its system by eon- 

 verting them into small parks. The 

 ■company has a nursery at Provo, where 

 there are Go.OOO catalpas about ready 

 •for planting.
