I had a cast iron 8-section boiler before, 

 but was afraid it would crack to pieces. 

 The Kroeschell Boiler is certainly a 

 fuel-saver. My coal bill to heat 5000 sq. 

 ft. of glass surface with your boiler is less 

 than last winter's coal bill, when I had 

 only 2050 sq. ft. of glass, heated with the 

 8-section cast iron boiler. 



Your boiler burns any kind of fuel. I 

 would not have any other boiler than the 

 Kroeschell, and will recommend whenever 

 I get a chance. ' '

Greenhouse Heating. 



Subscribers are invited to write the 

 Editor of this Department with regard to 

 any details of greenhouse heating that 

 are not understood. But please do not 

 ask The Review to make a choice of ap- 

 paratus for you. The greenhouse heating 

 equipment advertised in this paper is, we 

 believe, the best for the trade to buy, 

 and each article the best in the special 

 field of its adaptation.

 "1 used Dixon'8 Silica-Graphite Paint 



on hot water pipes 16 years ago. The pipes 

 are still free from rust. It is by far the most
