First Big House of the New Sinclair Rang^e 

 at Smith's Ferry, Mass. 



IN a recent issue of Horticulture, 

 I ran across a little write-up 

 of the big house of Sinclair's, 

 that handlfs^ the subject so well 

 that I am just going to reprint it 

 here. 



"The house is of the most up-to- 

 date construction in every particu- 

 lar. It is t)0 feet wide and 400 feet 

 lony. On one side it is connected to 

 the service building by a 10 feet by 

 25 feet passage. 



"The house is of Hat- rafter iron- 

 frame construction, having only two 

 supports across it, giving an un- 

 broken space 34 feet wide between 

 the columns. The central span is 

 supported by a compression truss 

 composed of double angles. The 

 columns are of double angles riveted 

 togetlier, and all of the different 

 members are connected to each 

 other by steel gusset plates. The 

 side posts and rafters are in one 

 piece from the ground line to the 

 column: the roof pitch being ob- 

 tained by bending the rafters while 

 at white heat. The side posts are 

 bolted to heavy cast iron Hanged 

 bases.

"The galvanized 'Z' shaped eave 

 plates are 7 feet high, and the sides 

 are arranged for a continuous side 

 ventilating sash directly below the 

 eaves, solid glass below the sash 

 and 5-in. thick concrete wall to the 

 ground. An important feature of 

 the ventilating apparatus is the 

 Tell Tale Device which is attached 

 to each machine directly above the 

 hand wheel, showing accurately in 

 inches the amount of roof sash open- 

 ings. 



' 'The heat is gravity steam. One- 

 half of the house is benched for 

 carnations, and in this end the heat- 

 ing pipes are placed under each 

 bench and along the sides. The 

 other end of the house was left open 

 for sweet peas, and the heating 

 coils are carried on the side walls 

 and columns; the returns being 

 placed in a trench which runs both 

 lengthwise and across the house. 



"With the exception of the ser- 

 vice building and chimney, which 

 were built by a local contractor, 

 Mitchings & Company had the con- 

 tract for the entire jolt."
