BUILT FOR BEGINNERS 



WILKS BOILERS are ideal for the man who owns a small greenhouse, 

 who does his own firing and needs a boiler that can be relied on at 

 all times. 



WILKS BOILERS are self-feeding. Fill the magazine with fuel in the 

 evening, and an even, continuous fire will be maintained until morn- 

 ing without any attention. 



WILKS SELF- FEEDING HOT WATER BOILERS are built en- 

 tirely of steel. 



WILKS BOILERS will heat as much as 3000 square feet of glass to 

 65° in zero weather.

The amount of exposed glass in a 

 house 25x75 will vary considerably 

 with the pitch of the roof, as well as 

 with the amount of glass in the side 

 wall^ and ends of the house. If there 

 IS no glass in the walls, if only one end 

 of the house has exposed glass and if 

 1he roof has an average pitch, about 

 ♦•00 square feet of radiation will be

for the flows and returns will probably 

 answer, and with small rooms 2-inch 

 pipe might suffice if they are well in- 

 sulated. For 50 degrees I would use 

 five 21^-inch flows and nine 2-inch re- 

 turns. If a temperature of 60 degrees 

 is needed, I would use five flows ana 

 twelve returns.

The weather last week was the hot- 

 test this summer and business has suf- 

 fered materially from the extremely 

 high temperature. Stock has been 

 more than sufficient to meet demands. 

 Sl^psK business has been good. The 

 ^^t surplus of stock is attributed to 

 the unusually fine growing weather.
