HOW ABOUT THAT NEW BOILER? 



VOUR heating troubles are over for a short time, but that is no 

 reason to forg^et about the worry, expense and loss of sleep you 

 suffered durins^ the winter. Summer is the time to prepare for cold 

 weather. Now is the time to order a WILKS SELF-FEEDING HOT 

 WATER BOILER. It will stand betW€^ you and future worry and 

 unnecessary expense.

WILKS HOT WATER BOILERS 



are made of the best quality of steel, strongly riveted 



" and calked, with no cast-iron sections to crack. Our 



Catalogue is yours for tho asking. It tells all 



about our heaters, shows their economy and gives a 



' '". plan for heating a model greenhouse.

Another feature of the present situation 

 is an unusual demand from some parts 

 (if the middle west for low volatile Som- 

 erset county coals, as a substitute for 

 West V^irginia smokeless. In most 

 <'ases thi.s is entirely new business for 

 Somerset county producers and is tak- 

 ing coal that would otherwise be avail- 

 able for tile tide-water markets. 



"There i.s little prospect of supply 

 overtaking demand in the near future, 

 since labor is no more plentiful than it 

 has been and car nhortage is sure to 

 become more of a factor in the course 

 of a few weeks. ' ' 



PIPINQ IN WASHINOTON STATE. 



Will you kindly inform me whether 

 an.. Ideal boiler rated at 1,500 feet will 

 heal two greenhouses, each 22x100, five 

 feet high to the gutters and eleven 

 feet high at the gables, to a night tem- 

 perature of 55 degrees when the out- 

 side temperature is 15 degrees above 

 zerof Soft coal will be used. How 

 should the piping be arranged to get 

 the best results? W. E. C. 



The letter does not state how much 

 ^lass, if any, is in the side walls, but 

 if the amount in each wall is not more 

 than thirty inches the boiler mentioned 

 should heat the two houses. 



In order to heat these houses to 55

^RETURN 



Save condensation 

 and it's heat. 



Automatically return 

 both to boiler with 

 out pumping. 



Let US show you what "Detroit" Traps would save in your 

 coal bills— what they will do for your Heating System.
