SHOULD DIVIDE MANIFOLD. 



In a house 20x65 feet 1 have a mani- 

 fold of four 2-ineh pipes connected with 

 the boiler by 3-int'h flow and return 

 pipes. The return at the junction with 

 the manifold is five feet above the bot- 

 tom of the boiler and the flow at the 

 junction with the manifold is seven feet 

 higher than the bottom of the boiler. 

 Mj' boiler is ample to heat the four 

 runs of 2-inch pipe, hot-water, but the 

 inside run of pipe does not heat up 

 well. What alterations must I make to 

 heat all the pipes hot? The pipes are 

 flat up under the outside benches. 



C. W. 



If you divide the present manifold, 

 consisting of four pipes into two mani- 

 folds containing two pipes each and 

 carry an independent 2-inch riser to 

 each of them from each of the two out- 

 lets in the boiler, I think you will have 

 no further difficulty in securing a satis- 

 factory circulation, if, as you say, the 

 boiler has suflScient capacity for the 

 work. L. C. C, 



PIPING TWO HOUSES. 



Will you please tell me about the 

 houses 1 want to build? There will be 

 two houses 20x100 feet, ten feet to 

 ridge, four feet above the ground, for 

 carnations and one for violets, running 

 north and south, boiler shed on the north 

 side. How many pipes will I need and 

 how can I best place them with solid 

 benches in the houses? It goes some- 

 times to about 15 degrees below zero 

 here. P. S. 



The two houses yon contemplate con- 

 structing will require the following pip- 

 ing: The violet house may be piped 

 with nine 2-incli pipes, the length of 

 the house if hot water is used. A good 

 plan would be to run a 2^/4 -inch riser 

 under the ridge to the soutli end of the 

 house, there divide it to return by four 

 2-inch pipes on each side wall, arrang- 

 ing the coils so as to give sufficient fall 

 in the length of the house. This will 

 give slightly more radiation than the 

 nine 2-inch pipes, but will provide a 

 better distribution. The carnation 

 house will be less satisfactory with solid 

 beds and more difficult to arrange a 

 satisfactory distribution of pipes. This 

 house should have a 3-inch flow and 

 twelve 2-inch returns, six on each side 

 wall, or four on each side wall and four 

 placed elsewhere, say two in each walk 

 on the boards forming the sides of the 

 benches. Your boiler to handle this 

 equipment with safety and satisfaction 

 should be rated to carry 2,000 square 

 feet of radiation. L. C. C. 



T couldn't get along without the Re- 

 view, or at least I wouldn't. — E. Hus-

THE WEEDER FOR FLORISTS 



The inner edge is sharp. Its oval shape permits the operator to weed behind the plants while 

 standing In front. The pushing edge Is thin enough to work easily through the soil, but too dull to 

 damage the stems of the plants should It come In contact with them. 



It takes out the weeds and leaves the surface smooth. What's more, It does all the work so 

 rapid it will pay for itself In one day's use.
