 Do you think this is large enough? 



R. G. S.— O. 



The sketch shows three even-span 

 houses with a length of fifty feet, and 

 occupying a space sixty feet wide. If 

 the houses are drawn to scale, we judge 

 the widths to be approximately fifteen, 

 twenty and twenty-five feet. The outer 

 walls are seven feet eleven inches in 

 height, but we cannot determine the 

 amount of glass they contain, if any. 

 Neither is the temperature desired in 

 the houses stated, or any way of dis- 

 tinguishing them. 



If an average tem2)crature of 60 de- 

 grees will answer for the three houses, 

 the boiler described above should be 

 amply large. We should run a 3-inch 

 flow ]jipe under eacli of the plates, or 

 gutters, except on the outer wall of the 

 narrow house, where a flow jiipe with a 

 diameter of two and a half inches will 

 .'inswer. Four 2-inch return pipes will 

 answer for this wall, and seven may be 

 used on the other outside wall. Twelve 

 returns will be required on the posts 

 between the 25-foot and 20-foot houses, 

 and nine returns between the 20-foot 

 and 15-foot houses. Tliese estimates are 

 for a night temperature of 60 degrees 

 when the mercury is 10 degrees below 

 zero outside. If 50 degrees will answer 

 in the houses, the number of the returns 

 should be respectively three, five, nine 

 and seven. The above estimates are for 

 walls without glass below the level of 

 the plates. When there is glass below 

 the level of the pl.ntes, there should be 

 an addition;il 2-inch return on the outer 

 walls for every two feet of glass. 



To connect the flow pipes with the 

 boiler, use two 3%-ineh leads. When 

 the flow pipe for the first house has been 

 taken off, the main leading to the other 

 flow main may be reduced to three
