 the side bench, if benches are used.

 ing returns may be either on the center 

 posts or in the walks. 



The boiler for a house of this size 

 should have a grate at least twenty 

 inches in diameter. For heating with 

 steam, use one 2-inch flow and twelve 

 1%-inch returns. 



NEWARK, N. J. 



The Market. 



Frosts have killed most of the out- 

 door flowers, thereby increasing the de- 

 mand for greenhouse blooms. While 

 there is a fair deinaiid for flowers now, 

 the winter season for florists has not yet 

 begun. 



The scarcity of coal, plus the diffi- 

 culty of securing it, has a tendency to 

 reduce the amount of cultivation under 

 glass. The decrease for this reason, 

 however, will not be large. 



Various Notes. 



Cluirles hutiiy, 36."? Springfield ave-

Thousands of jiersous have visited tlie 

 annual fiill exhibition of chrysantlie-

 stately William Turner to the tiny 

 golden pompons. There were 1,500 be- 

 goftias on exhibition. R. B. M.
