have developed still more definitely and 

 the inland buyers, including those in 

 Chicago, are beginning to be uneasy. 

 Thus contracts which were delayed 

 while the retailers haggled over prices 

 are now being closed and the market 

 has developed to a point where it can 

 almost be said that, barring some un- 

 told developments, prices for this year 

 are established. Spot business has been 

 light." 



USING FOUE 4-INCH FLOWS. 



Please let us know how many 2-inch 

 returns will be needed to keep my 

 greenhouse, 35x95, at a temperature of 

 50 degrees when the outside tempera- 

 ture is as low as 20 degrees below 

 zero. The house is seven feet high to 

 the eaves and is exposed on all sides. 

 We shall use four lines of 4-inch boiler 

 tubes as flows. There are five benches. 

 Would you advise the use of any pipes 

 on the outside walls? The aisles will 

 be a little narrow for the use of piping, 

 unless we cut down the width of the 

 benches a few inches to provide more 

 room. H. E. & C. W. K.— la. 



To heat a house 35x95, with 7-foot 

 walls, to 50 degrees when the tempera- 

 ture is 20 degrees below zero outside, 

 I would use twelve 2-inch return pipes 

 in addition to the four 4-inch boiler 

 ^ues used as flows. One flow pipe

should be upon each plate and the three 

 returns joined to each of them should 

 be either on the side walls or under 

 the side benches. It will probably be 

 best to have the other flaw pipes on 

 the purlin posts, or suspended from 

 about the middle of the sashbars, and 

 the returns may be under the benches, 

 or in the walks if beds are used. In 

 case the boiler is below the level of the 

 greenhouse floor, the flow pipes may be 

 under the benches also.
