Greenhouse Heating. 



SuBSCEiBERS are invited to write the 

 Editor of this Department with regard to 

 any details of greenhouse heating that 

 are not understood. But please do not 

 ask The Review to make a choice of ap- 

 paratus for you. The greenhouse heating 

 equipment advertised in this paper is, we 

 believe, the best for the trade to buy, 

 and each article the best in the special 

 field of its adaptation. 



PIPING A PROPAGATING HOUSE. 



Please let me know how much hot 

 ■water piping will be needed for a side 

 house, 7x52, on the north side of a car- 

 nation house. We intend to use it for 

 a propagating house. V. B. W. — la. 



To heat the propagating house to 60 

 degrees, use a 2-inch flow pipe and two 

 J%-inch returns, unless considerable 

 bottom heat is desired, in which case 

 an additional return should be put in. 

 The flow pipe should be on the back 

 wall and the others under the benches 

 on the other side. 



SCEANTON, PA. 



The Market. 



Business last week was quiet. Carna- 

 tions are about done for. Sweet peas 

 are in abundance. We are receiving 

 a few asters, but they are small and 

 short of stem because of cold weather 

 and heavy rains. Gladioli and roses 

 are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Jolin P. Brown was busy last week 

 filling funeral orders, but reports gen- 

 eral business quiet. James Cusick, of 

 this firm, is spending his vacation at 

 Falls, Pa. 



€. W. Baldwin, who ia spending the 

 summer at Camp Wyo-Wanna, White 

 Ferry, Pa., on the Susquehanna, says 

 that fishing on the river has started 

 again, after high water, and he is look- 

 ing forward to good catches. 



Business at B. E. & J. T. Cokely's 

 has been such that J. T. Cokely started 

 on his annual New York state trip 

 August 10. 



Victor Burschell, who for many years 

 was in the florists* business here, has 

 been selected by the Democratic com- 

 mittee as chairman of the next city and 

 county election. 



One of the most attractive spots in 

 $eranton is beautiful Nay Aug park.

Gentlemen: - 



Now that the firing season is over, 

 and after a long, cold winter, the 

 coldest night being 6° below zero, I 

 want to say I am well pleased with the 

 No. 46 WATER TUBE STEAM BOILER and the 

 No. 14 hot water boiler; they are doing 

 all you claim for them and more. 



The No. 14 hot water boiler heating 

 that large house to 62° with the great- 

 est ease in zero weather without the 

 help of the stesun boiler. 



THIS STEAM BOILER I THINK IS A 

 WONDER, a quick steamer and holds the 

 steaim, the easiest boiler in the world 

 to clean and to keep clean. The double 

 steajn trap system is working fine, 

 keeping all the steam lines well drained. 



But the threaded boiler tube piping 

 system is the winner; the rapid circu- 

 lation ajcid even temperature obtained 

 from this system is wonderful. 



After being told repeatedly by other 

 growers that roses could not be grown 

 with hot water heat, we are getting the 

 best kind of results not only from the 

 heating systems and boilers, but also 

 from the roses. 



Yours very truly.
