GREENHOUSES IN L-SHAFE. 



How would you pipe my two houses, 

 10x28 and 10x40, so as to heat them 

 to a temperature of 70 degrees with 

 hot water, when the outside tempera- 

 ture is 20 degrees below zerof How 

 large a boiler will be needed! The 

 shorter house runs east and west. It 

 is built on the surface of the ground 

 and contains solid beds, with the path 

 between them sunk below the ground 

 level. The sides are boarded and are 

 two feet high. The height from the 

 bottom of the alley or path to the ridge 

 is six and one-half feet. At the east end 

 of this house is the boiler pit, 10x10, 

 which is excavated to a depth of three 

 feet. 



Extending south from the boiler shed 

 is the longer house, 10x40. Thus the 

 two houses are at right angles, or in the 

 form of an L. The floor of the longer 

 house is three feet below the level of 

 the ground. The side walls are of con- 

 crete to the top of the ground, with 

 twenty-one inches of boards above the 

 concrete. The height from floor to 

 ndge is six feet five inches. There is
