turns. The expansion tank will be 

 about fifteen feet above the top of 

 the boiler. 



I have on hand enough 2-inch, ly^- 

 inch and 1^4 -inch pipe, which I wish 

 to install, using the 2-inch for flows, 

 the li/^-inch for returns in Nos. 1 and 



2 and the 1^-inch for returns in Nos. 



3 and 4. Should I use a generator 

 with this small pipe, or can the same 

 purpose be accomplished by placing 

 the expansion tank higher f .

It is not quite clear just how many 

 exposed walls there are in the houses. 

 The following suggestions are based 

 upon there being one exposed wall in 

 houses 1 and 4, and none in houses 

 2 and 3. If there is more exposure 

 than this, an additional return should 

 be used for each exposed wall. Es- 

 pecially because the returns are below 

 the top of the boiler, as well as be- 

 cause small pipes are used, I would 

 use a generator. In houses No. 1 and 

 2 I would use four 2-inch flow pipes 

 and eleven 1%-inch returns. In house 

 No. 3 I would put in four flows and 

 thirteen IVi-inch returns; in house No. 

 4, two flows and six returns. 



Geneva, N. Y.— John P. Welsh, who 

 does both a wholesale and retail busi- 

 ness, says everybody in the trade in 

 this section is doing well. 



Albany, Ga.— O. J. Neundorfer, pro- 

 prietor of the Owl Drug & Seed Co., has 

 found the horticultural department so 

 increasingly important that he will 

 divide the business, enlarging the deal- 

 ings in seeds, bulbs, plants and cut 

 flowers, giving his personal attention 

 to that branch.

The conservatories of the President of the United States are located opposite 

 the Washington monument, at Washington, D. C. Over 40 greenhouses are devoted 

 to the growing of cut flowers, orchids, stove plants, tropical and decorative stock. 



A No. 11 KROESCHELL BOILER was installed in 1906 for the high tem- 

 perature houses. This boiler made a wonderful record for economy. 



The new iron frame range erected in 1910 is heated by KROESCHELL 

 BOILERS. 



The Plant Introduction Garden of the United States Department of Agricul- 

 ture at Chico, California, is heated by No. 2 Kroeschell boiler and generator system. 



In 1912 two No. 5 KROESCHELL BOILERS were installed for the new range 

 of the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, at Garret Park. Md. 



In 1913 the U. S. Government's new establishment, the Northern Great Plains 

 Field Station, at Mandan. N. Dakota, ordered a No. 7 KROESCHELL BOILER for 

 the new greenhouse range erected in 1913. 



August, 1914, two more No. 11 KROESCHELL BOILERS were ordered for
