pipes are taken off. The main returns 

 should be of the same size. 



For each house I should use three 2%- 

 inch overhead flow pipes, running one 

 below each purlin and the other below 

 the ridge. If possible they should run 

 downhill, with a slope of one foot in 

 twenty feet. There should be at least 

 seven 2-inch returns in each house; one 

 more return in each house would be de- 

 sirable if they are much exposed. While 

 I do not like to use 1%-inch pipe for 

 houses over 100 feet in length, three 

 114-inch returns may be substituted for 

 three 2-inch ones. It will be possible to 

 carry two of the returns in each house 

 on the sides of the beds or on the purlin 

 posts. 



It is a mistake to carry the return 

 pipes on a level with the return inlets. 

 It is preferable to sink the boiler so 

 that it will be below the level of the 

 returns, although when the flows are 

 overhead and the returns are carried 

 well up on the walls and purlin posts, a 

 fairly good circulation can be secured. 



The two small boilers are amply large 

 enough to heat the houses to 50 degrees. 

 These require a chimney fifteen inches 

 in diameter and thirty-five feet high.
