FOR CX)LD CLIMATE. 



I am building a new greenhouse 22x40 

 feet with a glass partition in the cen- 

 ter. I Bhall use the east half for rosee 

 and carnations. The two side benches 

 are three feet wide and the two center 

 benches are six feet wide. Please tell 

 me how many pipes I need and how to 

 arrange them to maintain 65 degrees 

 in weather occasionally 40 to 45 Iwlow 

 zero. Which is the best and the cheap- 

 est on fuel, hot water or steam f Which 

 is the best kind of boiler to save fuel? 

 I shall use hard coal. The boiler will 

 be six to seven feet below the ground 

 level. P. J. K. 



tinder the circumstances I judge that 

 a hot water system would be preferable 

 to any other. The house 22x40 feet can 

 be piped with 2-inch pipe by supplying 

 CTghteen runs the length of the house. 

 At least three flow pipes should be 

 maintained to supply three manifolds 

 (containing five returns each. The piping 

 can all be arranged under the benches. 

 An expansion tank of at least thirty 

 gallons capacity should be connected 

 with the main return and located twelve 

 or fifteen feet above the top of the 

 boiler. A boiler with a capacity of 

 about 1,000 feet radiation should be em- 

 ployed. The type of boiler which is 

 most economical of fuel is of the return 

 tubular from or a close approach to 

 that type. There are several good boil- 

 ers of this type on the market. L. C. C.

Highland Park, Mich. — A. A. Frey 

 & Son have just installed a new boiler 

 made by the Burns Boiler Co., West De 

 Pere, Wis. They had a new house to 

 heat with it. 



Hinsdale, Mass. — The fern dealers 

 are having a good deal of trouble with 

 the earliest lots of hardy cut ferns put 

 into storage. Many are a total loss and 

 others sent to customers at the increased 

 price now asked either come back or an 

 allowance is demanded for bad ferns 

 and the n^ork of picking over.
