Milwaukee, Wis. 



CAPAQTY OF BOILER, 



I am building a range of seven short - 

 span connected houses, six of them each 

 13^2x100, the other 20^^x100, eleven feet 

 to the ridge. I wish to grow carnations 

 in Milwaukee climate. I have a No. 19 

 Hitchings boiler and a lot of 4-inch cast- 

 iron pipe, but not enough for piping all. 

 I would like to put in stedm with same. 

 What size of boiler will I need and how 

 would you arrange the piping! Would 

 it be good policy to arrange the 4-inch 

 cast-iron pipe along the walls and carry 

 the steam supply along the ridge and re- 

 turn under the benches? O. S. 



You are undoubtedly fully aware that 

 it is impracticable for you to use the 

 4-inch cast-iron pipe for steam heating. 

 I infer that you wish to make a combina- 

 tion heating plant;, i.e., you intend to 

 install the hot water boiler you have and 

 use the 4-inch cast-iron pipe in connection 

 with this boiler for a part of the houses 

 and to supplement this with steam to pro- 

 vide the additional heat required. Such 

 ■a combination can undoubtedly be made 

 but as you do not state the amount of 

 4-inch pipe you propose to use I can only 

 base the answer to your question on the 

 capacity of the boiler you have. To 

 heat the plant with hot water 4,000 feet 

 of radiation -will be required. To heat it 

 with steam 3,000 feet of radiation will 

 suflBce. Your No. 19 Hitchings boiler is 

 rated to carry 2,300 square feet of radia- 

 tion. According to this the boiler you 

 have is about half as large as is re- 

 quired to do the work. ' L. C. C.

 September 23 Edward Ferdinandson and 

 "V. Oleson discovered two strangers in 

 Chas. E. Ferdinandson 's greenhouses. A
