degrees below zero. I wish to place the 

 pipes so as to dispose of the necessity 

 of running them the full length of the 

 houses, to avoid the shading which will 

 occur and the extra expense of the cost 

 of the pipe. 



The plan I have is to run a main flow 

 through the center of the houses north 

 and south, branching off and putting 

 the flow pipes under the benches and 

 returning to the center, where it will 

 flow into a large return pipe. What 

 size of pipes would be required to Hike 

 care of the heating? I will use 2-ineh 

 pipe for the coils under the benches. 

 How much lower should the boiler be 

 set than the lowest point of the return 

 pipes! Would a No. 4 Kroeschell boiler 

 be large enough to heat this range? 



E. B.— Mich. 



The sketch shows one house 33x100 

 feet, running east and west; one house 

 15x50 feet, on the north side of the 

 large house, and one house, 15x35 feet, 

 on the north side of the 15x50-foot 

 house. At the west end of the 15x35- 

 foot house there is a 15xl5-foot dwell- 

 ing. 



The arrangement suggested above 

 would carry the mains across the cast 

 end of houses No. 2 and No. 3 and 

 across house No. 1, at the center, with 

 coils running both ways to the ends of 

 this house. 



To heat house No. 1 to 65 degrees 

 will require about 1,560 square feet 

 of radiation, or 780 square feet in 

 each end of the house. It is not clear 

 just how tlie radiation is to be arranged, 

 but if it is all to be with 2-inch pipes, 

 about 1,250 linear feet will be needed 

 in each end of the liouse. This may be 

 arranged as nine flows and eighteen re- 

 turns. The other luinses will need 300 

 square feet of radiation each. This will 

 require three flows and seven returns in 

 each house. 



Much better results could be secured 

 from five 2i^-inch overhead flows and 

 eighteen 2-incli returns in the wide 

 house and tliree flows and six returns in 

 each of the other two houses. 



The main flow and return for the large 

 house should be of 6-inch pipe. One 

 4-inch flow would answer for both of 

 the smaller houses, or a 3-inch flow may 

 be carried to each house. The main re- 

 turns should be of the same size as the 

 flow pipes. 



A No. 4 Kroeschell boiler will be of 

 ample size for the three hpuses. It will 

 be advisable to have the top of the 

 boiler at least as low as the lowest part 

 of the returns, and if it can be two or
