otlicr house. In any case, the flows, as 

 well as the returns, should liavc a down- 

 ward slope. The circulation will be 

 much better with tlic flows arranjjed as 

 suggested, tlian in a system in whicli 

 the flows are under tlie benches. 



There is no objection to having the 

 warmer liouse nearer the boiU'r, al- 

 thougli it will make little difference so 

 far as the circulation is concerned, ])ro- 

 vided tlie main flows and returns are of 

 ample size. 



If there are two coils in the middle of 

 the house, botli may be supjilied by one 

 21/^-inch flow under the ridge, but if 2- 

 inch flow pipes are used, it will be 

 desirable to run a flow ]iipe for each of 

 the coils, especially in the warmer 

 house. 



TO HEAT LEAN-TO. 



I have a small house, 8x70 feet, with 

 a 4-foot side wall. It is attached to a 

 building. I should like to heat it with 

 hot water, using just enough lieat to 

 keep out tlie dampness. This house is 

 used only during S('])tomber and Octo- 

 ber. I could use cither gas or oil for 

 fuel and shoiild like t<i kiiow the size 

 and .-iniount of ]iipe, and how to install. 



J. J. II. -O. 



Although it is not stated definitely, 

 we infer that the house above men- 

 tioned is built as a lean-to, with one 

 side wall exposed. 



.Tust what temperature is desired is 

 not made clear, but wo judge that 

 so f.ar as keejiing out th<> dampness is 

 concerned, one L'-incli flow jiipe, five or 

 six feet from llic tloor, connected with 

 one 2-inch return carried around the 

 end of the house and back on the side 

 wall, is all that would be nee(l(>d. It 

 might be well t" arrange .a system as 

 ])reviously stated, with two 2-incli re- 

 turns on the exjiosed wall. Such a 

 house would often lie handy, as it would 

 be ])Ossil)le to maintain ;i tenijierat urc 

 of 40 degrees in zero we.ather.
