and of the imperative need for doing 

 something. 



Every vrinter's coal famine finds us 

 beseeching someone to do something 

 about it. The railroads should b > re- 

 buked, mines should be corrected, coal 

 dealers should be investigated; we run 

 around in circles investigating, examin- 

 ing, full of chills and ague and flu and 

 metisles and pneumonia. 



Spring comes, the pleasant dells are 

 lush and bosky, the boulevards are be- 

 decked with flowers and diaphanous lin- 

 gerie taunts departing Boreas. Do some- 

 thing about it f Of course not, it 's sum- 

 mer now and we snap our fingers at the 

 trail of pneumonia and tuberculosis and 

 ilia of the heckled soul. "We forget our 

 inquisitions and demands for correc- 

 tion. 



But there is another winter coming. 

 And it will be as full of plague as any 

 other winter. It will be as cold and as 

 miserable and as fraught with ills if 

 we are without the means of balking 

 them. The wise virgins filled their 

 lamps. The wise florist will fill his coal 

 bin. 



There is always present the fear that 

 one may find coal cheaper next winter. 

 The times when it h -s happened can be 

 easily numbered. By the simplest laws 

 of supply and demand coal will not be 

 cheapest when it is most desired. We 

 Ao not have positive information, but 

 -experience teach s us that coal famines 

 Argue higher prices; wherefore winter 

 seems hardly the time to expect cheap- 

 ness. 



The coal mines should be kept at full 

 prdduction. The product must be kept 

 moving. The people should store fuel. 

 After the lesson of the last two years we 

 should for once take time by the fore- 

 lock. 



PIPINO SIX CONNECTED HOUSES. 



We are building six connected green- 

 houses, each 20x100, except the first one, 

 which is 26x100. Thus the entire area 

 covered will be 100x126 feet. I wish to 

 heat the range to 50 degrees in zero 

 weather. The outside walls will be six 

 feet high, with four feet of glass. The 

 roofs will havd a 35-degTee pitch. The 

 boiler is a good-sized one, with a capac- 

 ity of ninety horsepower. It has two 

 outlets, 4-inch and 5-inch. Will these 

 supply enough radiation? The pipe to 

 be used for the coils is IVo-inch. Sow 

 many feet of such piping will be pe^di 

 edf How should the coils be arranged? 

 The houses will run east and west. We 

 have thought of placing the boiler at
