steam, as can also 2-inch, but 114-inch 

 is preferable to either. If you can 

 avoid using the ]-inch pipe in the 

 200-foot house, it should be done. If 

 a trade can be made so as to use the 

 1-inch pipe in the shortest houses and 

 the larger pipe in the longest houses, 

 best results will be secured. 



The house 11x60 feet should have 265 

 square feet of radiation; the house 

 20x100 feet 660 square feet; the house 

 14x75 feet 290 square feet; the house 

 32x200 feet 1440 square feet, and the 

 house 5x100 feet 200 square feet of 

 radiation. You can figure out the best 

 use of your pipe with the following con- 

 stants if you use the house requirements 

 I have stated. Allow 290 lineal feet 

 of 1-inch pipe, and 161 lineal feet of 

 2-inch pipe, for each 100 square feet 

 of radiation in the houses. L. C. C. 



STORE AND CONSERVATORY. 



We wish to heat a conservatory 20x50, 

 also a store 20x60, with hot water. How 

 much pipe will it take to keep up a 

 temperature of 60 degrees, and how 

 should it be arranged? Our coldest 

 weather is zero. J. W. D. 



If j-ou wish to use radiators in the 

 store, an aggregate surface of 360 square 

 feet will do the work; if you wish to use 

 coils, 825 feet of 1^4 -inch pipe can be 

 made to do the work. In the conserva- 

 tory 850 lineal feet of 1^-inch pipe ar- 

 ranged in coils, and placed on the side 

 wall or under the benches, if benches are 

 used, will provide for a temperature 

 of 60 degrees. L. C. C. 



PIPING SEPARATED HOUSES. 



I intend to build an addition to my 

 forcing houses this summer. When I 

 get it completed I will have three houses, 

 20x100, 11x100, and 25x100. They run 

 east and west, and have a boiler shed 

 extending across the west end of the 

 north two houses, with the bottom of the 

 boiler set four feet below the ground 

 line. The smoke-stack stands at the 

 northwest corner of the plant, and is 

 two and one-half bricks square. The 

 20-foot house is eleven feet to the ridge, 

 the 11-foot seven feet, and the other 

 will be eight. It will be about thirty- 

 seven feet from the middle of the north 

 house to the middle of the south one. 

 All the houses are to be used for let- 

 tuce, and the south one will have three 

 solid beds, with 2-foot walks. Will I 

 have to move the smoke-stack to the 

 middle of the west end, or can I heat 



When you order that new boiler, omit the 

 common stationary grate bars and get the
