below the bottom of the benches, and 

 with each of the three flow pipes feed 

 a coil of four 2-inch returns, placing 

 one coil under each of the side benches 

 and the other under the middle bench. 

 In case the west end of the house is 

 much exposed, the wall coils should be- 

 gin under the ends of their respective 

 flow pipes, and run on the end wall to 

 the corner of the house and then on 

 the Bide walls to the boiler. 



A OBEENHOUSE AND LEAN-TO. 



Will you please state the amount of 

 pipe necessary to heat the greenhouse 

 and lean-to shown in the sketch, using 

 hot water? What would be the right 

 size of mains, if 2-inch pipe is used for 

 the coils? How should the coils be ar- 

 ranged? The sketch shows my idea of 

 doing it. If you think best, a coil 

 could be hung on the posts instead of 

 putting them all on the walls. The 

 greenhouse is 21x50 and the walls con- 

 tain thirty inches of glass above three 

 feet of siding. The lean-to is 14x15 and 

 has no glass in gables or walls. 



Will a boiler rated at 1,000 feet be 

 large enough? It will be placed in the 

 cellar of the workroom, at the west end 

 of the houses. I wish to grow lettuce 

 in the greenhouse, and if space is 

 crowded in the spring I shall put part 

 of the bedding stock in it. The lean- 

 to will be uded as a propagating house 

 and also for bedding stock. Later I
