80, what plans shall I follow in putting 

 it in? C. A. P.— Me. 



"While we have known of houses of 

 the size mentioned being heated by 

 means of flues, it has not been satisfac- 

 tory for carrying bedding plants 

 through the winter. Where wood is 

 cheap, they answer fairly well for use 

 in the spring. 



Long runs are not desirable, and for 

 a house of the width mentioned we 

 should construct two furnaces at each 

 end of the house, from each of which 

 we should run a flue, with a width of 

 eight inches and a height of ten inches, 

 inside measurement, to the center of the 

 house. There would be two chimneys, 

 each with two flues. In mild weather 

 only two of the furnaces will be re- 

 quired. 



If wood can be obtained for fuel, the 

 furnaces should be four or five feet 

 long, and with a width and height of 

 fifteen inches, all inside measurements. 

 The grate should be about twelve by 

 eighteen inches. The ash pit should be 

 about ten inches deep, fifteen in width 

 and sixteen in length. The furnaces 

 and first ten feet of the flues should 

 be lined with fire brick. Care should 

 be taken to have no wood within six 

 inches of the flue or furnace. Hot air is 

 not feasible for heating large green- 

 houses.

The cape jasmine season just past is 

 reported by the Alvin Cape Jessamine 

 & Floral Co. to have been its most suc- 

 cessful one, shipments topping the pre- 

 vious high-water mark by more than 

 150,000 buds. "We attribute this ex- 

 tra high record," says Manager W. L. 

 Heller, "to two factors; first, good qual- 

 ity stock, as ninety-four per cent of 

 our old customers came back this sea- 

 son; second, good advertising, which ac- 

 counts for the long list of new cus- 

 tomers, a large percentage of whom 

 stated, 'We saw your ad in The Ee- 

 view. ' ' '

 We use KAMMOITD'S SI^UO 

 SHOT on Currant Bushes In 

 the Spring before the leaves are 

 started. We put It on around 

 the roots and have done it for 

 two years, and find that the 

 worms are killed before they 

 get on the bush. For potatoes 

 we put on S^ua SHOT as soon 

 as the bugs come, and we have 

 good vines, plenty of tubers 

 and no bugs. It is the best 

 thing we have ever used. Per 

 Sow Bnar* In ffreenlionseB It ii >nre dsatb. We had a lot of them before using 

 S£Ua SHOT but they got out where It Is used.
