respectively, 10x40 and 10x28, to 70 

 degrees when the outside temperature 

 is 20 degrees below zero, we would place 

 a 214-inch flow pipe upon each plate, 

 and would use upon each side either 

 three 2-inch or four l^^-inch returns. 

 "With the top of the boiler above the 

 level of the ground, it will be necessary 

 to keep the return pipes as high as 

 possible upon the wall; hence we would 

 not give the flows or returns a fall 

 greater than one inch in twenty feet. 

 We would use the downhill system for 

 the flow pipes and connect the expan- 

 sion tank to the highest part of the 

 system. A boiler with a rating for 500 

 square feet will be needjed. 



PEOVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Cooler weather last week improved 

 the market here to an appreciable ex- 

 tent and the downtown florists showed 

 renewed activity. Light frosts have 

 practically ruined the outdoor flowers 

 and the greenhousemen now are coming 

 into their own. Funeral work is unusu- 

 ally heavy, but well distributed. 



Asters and gladioli, which have 

 proved good sellers this summer, are 

 gone, but they are being replaced by 

 the new-crop roses, carnations, snap- 

 dragons and chrysanthemums, which 

 are putting in an appearance in good 

 quantity and quality.
