July 6, 1905. 



SIZE OF BOILER. 



I am about to erect two connected 

 houses, even-span, 20x100, posts six feet, 

 twelve feet to ridge and with two feet 

 of side ventilation, A work-room pro- 

 tects the north end. What size horizontal 

 tubular boiler will be requirsd for steam 

 to maintain a temperature at 55 degrees 

 with the outside temperature sometimes 

 down to 18 and 20 degrees below zero? 

 Will also run a pips into the dwelling 

 and heat two rooms, each 14x14, one 

 eight feet high, the other nine feet. 



T. G. Y. 



A twelve to fifteen horse-power re- 

 turn tubular horizontal boiler should be 

 ampls for your work. A boiler with 200 

 to 240 square feet of heating surface 

 would be ample. A fifteen horse-power 

 horizontal return tubular boiler usually 

 carries 230 to 240 square feet of heat- 

 ing surface and should therefors meet the 

 requirements. Your greenhouses will re- 

 quire about 1,150 square feet of radi- 

 ating surface and the dwelling rooms 

 about seventy-five fest each, or a total 

 of about 1,300 square feet. L. C. C. 



HEAT FOR VIRGINIA. 



I have four houses running north and 

 south. First a house 19x50 for roses, 

 then one 19x50 for carnations, next one 

 10x50 for pot plants, then one 10x50 

 for bedding stock and propagating. The 

 boiler shed is at the east end. The 

 wide houses have three benches, the 

 others two each. The range is all con- 

 nected and the houses are six feet high 

 to the gutters. A 2-inch flow runs 

 along the south ends, there are two 

 1^-inch pipes under each bench, return- 

 ing in a 2-inch pipe along the north ends 

 of the houses. Steam is used and in 

 Virginia we seldom have it as cold 

 as zero. Have I radiation enough f 



H. L. L. 



The six IVi-inch pipes, i. e., two 

 under each bench, will be sufficient for 

 carnations but hardly enough for 

 roses. The rose house should be pro- 

 vided with at least two additional 

 pipes, that is, eight l^^-inch pipes, or 

 their equivalent, to provide for trying 

 periods, oven in Virginia. L. C. C. 



The orders show the facts: that the 

 Review is all right as an advertising 

 medium. — B. H. Haverland, Pleasant 

 Run, O. 



I ENCLOSE a dollar for renewal of my 

 subscription; it is worth several times 

 that sum to me each year. — Jesse P.
