Is what George Schunetnan, the Long Island florist, 

 who grows twelve-foot Sweet Peas, says about the 

 heating that Hitchings & Co. have given him. 

 He is now using two of our largest Sectional Boilers 

 connected in battery. He coals up once in twenty- 

 four hours ; uses only half draft and regulates them 

 solely by smoke box damper. 



You know that an unvarying temperature is absolutely 

 necessary for sweet peas, or the buds drop off — the 

 Hitchings Boilers have never gone back on him.

This time it is one of our every way practical. Curved Eave houses, 

 about 33 feet long and i8 feet wide. Small, but just what the owner 

 wanted for his practical needs and location. 



The work room is entered through the garage. The entire combin- 

 ation is heated by the one boiler. It is an up-to-date greenhouse, 

 up-to-dately located. 



Although this greenhouse might be classed in the "runabout" size 

 — we have turned out some "big six cylinder, loo horse power" 

 ones, like J. B. Duke's Curved Eave range for instance, with its 

 twenty-five compartments. ""Z."* !- 



Now that we are talking about Cuived Eave houses, what do you 

 know about our way of building them? 



If you think of building, it is rather important that you should 

 know. Write us.
