The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 30. 1004. 



CAPAQTY OF BOILER. 



I have a bouse 11x100 feet, seven feet 

 Bix inches to the ridge, even span, sasli 

 bars six feet eight inches long. Thcio 

 are about 1,600 square feet of glass, one 

 side being boarded and the other having 

 twenty-six inches glass. Will a Florida, 

 Jr., boiler No. 502 with seventeen inches 

 grate be large enough to heat this to 50 

 degrees when it is 10 degrees below zero 

 outside? N. W. 



Your house requires 400 feet of radia- 

 tion, to heat which it will take a boiler 

 with at least fifty square feet of heating 

 surface, i. e., surface in the boiler ex- 

 posed to heated gases. I do not have the 

 rating of the Florida, Jr., boiler No, 502, 

 with seventeen inches grate. The manu- 

 facturers, however, can give you these fie- 

 ures. The piping for your house should be 

 so arranged as to give the boiler sufficient 

 radiation to heat the house without work- 

 ing to its full capacity. If you use 2- 

 inch pipe seven runs of pipe with the 

 water at 180 degrees will give you ample 

 heat, provided the pipe is properly ar- 

 ranged. L. C. C. 



BOARDING. 



What had one ought to charge for 

 wintering palms three feet high in 7- 

 inch pots insuring against accidents, 

 and returning them to the OAvners in 

 the spring? W. E. H. 



The cost of boarding plants for the 

 winter depends upon various circum- 

 stances, the most equitable method be- 

 ing to base a charge upon so much per 

 square foot of space occupied, but if 

 they are to be insured in all respects 

 it would be safer to charge from twenty- 

 five to fifty per cent of the value of 

 the plant and to establish a minimum 

 charge of say 50 cents for an average 

 plant of the size specified. It is diffi- 

 cult to establish a rule in this matter, 

 for much depends upon the class of cus- 

 tomers one has to deal with, but unless 

 a fair charge is made the boarding busi- 

 ness is an unprofitable one.
