WILKS HOT WATER BOILERS are made en- 

 tirely of [steel and have no cast iron sections 

 which are liable to crack and leak. ^

in a great while it may run as low as 

 10 degrees below for a day or two at 

 a time. We have a hot water boiler 

 rated at 5,000 feet of radiation. "What 

 piping will we need to heat this house? 

 The north end of the house is attached 

 to the service and boiler room. 



On the east side we are constructing 

 a lean-to made of hotbed sash, which 

 we wish to use for propagating. What 

 heating will be required for this? It 

 will be twenty-one inches in width on 

 the low side. C. F. B.— Wash. 



To heat a house 20x60 feet, for 

 growing lettuce and carnations, in 

 zero weather will require only 400 

 square feet of radiation, and if, as 

 stated, the boiler is rated for 5,000 

 square feet of radiation, it is many 

 times larger than is required for this 

 house, and would not be nearly so eco- 

 nomical as a boiler designed for 500 

 to 600 square feet of radiating surface.
