of less importance, since the coils are 

 but twenty feet in length, we should 

 use a similar arrangement of supply 

 pipes for the west end of these houses. 

 If a lean-to is added on the other side 

 of the house, about 650 square feet of 

 radiation will be required in each 20- 

 foot house and 400 square feet in each 

 lean-to. To heat them, using soft coal, 

 a boiler with a rating of 3,000 square 

 feet will be desirable. 



rORT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Market conditions have been about 

 the same as reported last week, with 

 the exception of an increased demand 

 on account of St. Valentine's day. 

 Bulbous stock helped out wonderfully. 

 Carnations are in good supply and are 

 of good quality. The weather was mild 

 until the latter part of the week, when 

 the mercury began to drop. Imme- 

 diately following St. Valentine's day 

 prices dropped and there was a general 

 let-up in business. 



Various Notes. 



A fine piece of decorative work was 

 that for the wedding of Miss Helen 

 Lane and Gary Knight, both prominent 

 young people. The Blossom Floral Co. 

 handled it in its usual artistic man- 

 ner. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Blossom 

 have purchased a new Chalmers car. 



The St. Valentine's day business 

 was above the ordinary. The Doswell 

 Floral Co. reported it to be the best 

 ever experienced. This is true of practi- 

 cally all the florists. 



Miss Georgia Alice Flick, who has 

 been quite ill, is recovering. The Flick 

 Floral Co. reports that the St. Valen- 

 tine's day business was so heavy that 

 extra help had to be secured. 



W. J. & M. S. Vesey are cutting some 

 fine Laddie carnations, which arc 

 bringing good prices on the market. 



Charles Treflfenger, of the Treffenger 

 Greenhouses, Van Wert, 0., was visiting 

 the trade recently. S. N.

What Is Your "Outgo" Tax? 



Have you reckoned the cost in coal wasted, 

 heat lost, due to leaky boiler settings? Apply 



and end this expense. Sealrite is the 

 perfect covering for boiler walls— no heat 

 can escape, no air infiltrate. It is a 

 plastic material that dries hard on the 

 out. ide but remains elastic within. Thus 

 it allows for e.xpansion and contraction, 



keeping the setting tight and preserving 

 the boiler walls. 



Sealrite is easily applied; no skilled la- 

 bor needed. Used on brick, cement, or 

 around windows. Order a barrel today. 



Write for information concerning the three money- savers— 

 SEALRITE, COATRITE, SCALINE.
