The Florists' Review 



JVNB 10, 1>15. 



under the conditions mentioned I would 

 use one square foot of radiation for 

 four square feet of glass. 



Concrete blocks containing air spaces 

 answer well for the walls, especially if 

 the upper portion is to be of glass. 

 Otherwise I would use iron posts, with 

 double boarding and a double layer of 

 building paper. Especially in the south- 

 ern states, I would not use any other 

 insulation, since the walls will decay 

 much more quickly if there is a dead 

 air space. 



BEBUILDINa AND BEFIPINO. 



I have some old greenhouses, cover- 

 ing a space 48x60 and running east and 

 west. I intend to pull these down and 

 erect two houses on the same ground. 

 I wish to add about thirty feet to the 

 west end and it will be necessary, 

 therefore, to move the boiler shed 

 thirty feet back. If the houses at 

 present are not heated in the best 

 way, perhaps I ought to change the 

 system of piping, as I shall have to 

 get more pipe and might as well make 

 any desirable alterations. 



The pipes now in use are 4-inch soil 

 pipes, for hot water. There are six 

 benches, with one 4-inch flow and one 

 4-inch return under each bench. The 

 lean-to at the south side is piped with 

 one 2-inch flow on the wall and one 

 2-inch return; these, also, are soil pipes. 

 There is no wall between the old 

 houses; neither will there be any sepa- 

 ration between the two new houses. I 

 grow carnations, vegetables and bed- 

 ding plants. L. L. F. — ^Hl. 



If the present system of piping is in 

 good condition and gives satisfactory 

 results, I would not advise changing 

 it, since, if any change is made along 

 the lines I would suggest, it would 

 require throwing out most of the pres- 

 ent system and junking it. 



If the two proposed houses are to 

 be repiped, I would run three 2i4-inch 

 flow pipes to the farther end of each 

 of the houses and connect them with 

 eight 2-inch returns. Place one flow 

 on each side wall and the other flow 

 two or three feet below the ridge. 

 Arrange to carry three of the returns 

 on the outer wall of each house and 

 distribute three under the benches. 

 The other two returns should be placed 

 on the inner wall of each house.
