GLASS SURFACE. 



Ed. Florists' Review: I notice your 

 explanation of method of figuring the 

 glass surface of a greenhouse in your 

 issue of March 12th, and while heartily 

 endorsing the suggestion contained in 

 the last paragraph, viz.: that "square 

 feet covered by glass" be the expression 

 used where it is desired to indicate the 

 approximate producing capacity of a 

 house or range of houses, I would ad- 

 vise that where size of the house or 

 houses is stated in glass surface, with 

 a view to figuring the required heating 

 capacity or the structural costs, the 

 actual total measurement of all glazed 

 surfaces in roof, sides and end be quoted. 

 This is secured by adding together the 

 length of each slope of the roof, also the 

 height of glazed portions of the vertical 

 sides and multiplying by the length of 

 the house and adding the result to the 

 area of the glazed portions of the ends, 

 and in such cases "square feet of glass" 

 should be the expression used. I would 

 be glad to read opinions of others on 

 this subject. Henry W. Gibbons.

 the florists, have made an assignment to
