The Florists' Review

I It Lets the Florist Sleep

 Boiler 



W. D. Snell, Florist. 

 Herkimer, N. Y., is a 

 hard man to lieep 

 down. His activity 

 exerted itself about 

 twenty years ago In 

 Newville, Herkimer 

 County, New York, 

 where he started in 

 the Florist business in 

 a small way. 



He now owns or has 

 an interest in four 

 Florist Establish- 

 ments, located in Ilion, 

 Mohawk, Herkimer, 

 and Little Falls. He 

 says much of his pros- 

 perity is due to his 

 first selecting- Giblin 

 boilers for his green- 

 houses and this pros- 

 perity has continued 

 so vigorously that he 

 has used six of them 

 within the past twenty 

 years. 



Here is the letter he 

 writes:

 Giblin & Co., Utica. N. Y. 



Gentlemen: Within twenty-one (21) 

 1 have bouRht six boilers from you, 

 bought boilers from no one else. 



My purchases were as follows: 



Newville, N. Y., Dec. IHOO, 

 Boiler for Greenhouses. 



Mohawk, N. Y., Dec. 1906, 1 No. 407 Boiler for 

 Greenhouses. 



Herkimer, N. Y., Dec. 11, 1911, 1 No. 407 

 Steam Boiler for Greenhouses. 



Herkimer, N. Y., Jan. 1910, 1 No. 70 Steam 

 Boiler for Residence. 



Ilion, N. Y., Sept. 1916, 1 No. 406 SU>am Boiler 

 for Greenhouses. 



Little Falls, N. Y., Jan. 1921, 1 No. 407 Steam 

 Boiler for Greenhouses. 



I bousht the first boiler because I was anxious 

 to see If it was all you claimed for it. I found 

 it was, and I have bought the other boilers bo- 

 cause I felt I could buy no other boilers that 

 would give as much for the money invested. 



I have found your boilers economical in fuel, in 

 some Instances doing the work for one-half it cost 

 with other boilers. 



I have maintained an even temperature for nine- 

 teen hours without attention. 



If florists would disregard the first eust, wliicjh 

 Is ONCE ONLY, and pay more attention to tlie 

 maintenance cost, tliey would get more profit out 

 of their business. 



I have paid a higher price for your boilers than 

 I was offered for other boilers, but I thought the 

 price I paid you none too high for wiiat I got In 

 return. Yours truly, 



W. D. SNKLL.

Wilks Self-Feeding Hot Water Boiler 



For Economy, Durability, Dependability 



Install a WILKS and Forget Your Troubles 



No night fireman required — as the magazine or coal chamber holds 

 sufficient fuel to keep fire 10 to 12 hours without attention. Best made for a 

 small greenhouse.

Dear Sirs: Received your boiler 0. K. As for the bo ler, it is all .vou 

 claim for it and more. Would not trade it for six like the cast iron one I 

 had before it. When it comes to keeping heat over night, it's tight on the 

 job. During our coldest weather here this winter (7 below) it kept the 

 house at 55 degrees, and did it easy on slack and nut mixed. 



Thanking j'ou again for past favors, I remain. 



Yours truly, 



(Signed) .] \UES McCRAY.
