MANUFACTURERS OF 



Reducing Yilies, Back Pressan YiItcs, Steam Traps, Steam 6oods 



This Is what one of our customers thinks of our valves: 



Lincoln, III., January 8, 1906. 

 The John Davis Company, Chicago, 111. 



Gbntlemen:— You can strongly and unhesitatingly recommend the 

 " Eclipse " piston type reducing valve to florists. We have two purchased 

 of you last year. We would not have them out for double their cost and 

 find them as sensitive as a watch. We will be in Chicago soon to take up 

 the vacuum system with you. Yours truly, 



W. H. Gullktt k. Sons, Florists. 



A newly built chimney will not draw 

 perfectly, and due allowance should be 

 made until it is thoroughly dried out, 

 which will probably take a week or two. 



In looking over the chimney and con- 

 necting the boiler to it, it is well to 

 notice the following: 



1. To see that there are no other 

 openings into the boiler flue, either 

 above or below the boiler smoke-pipe; 

 special care being exercised at the base 

 of the flue that the boiler flue does not 

 connect with the other flues through the 

 soot pocket. 



2. That the cross withes or division 

 walls of the chimney, if it contains more 

 than one flue, are carried up to the top 

 of the chimney, so that each flue is in- 

 dependent of the others, throughout its 

 entire length. 



3. That the area of the chimney flue 

 is maintained full size throughout its 

 entire length, and is free from all ob- 

 structions, such as loose brick, mortar, 

 etc., that might have become , , lodged 

 in it. 



4. That the chimney extends above

the highest point of the roof or other 

 immediate surrounding elevation. This 

 is quite important, and failure to ob- 

 serve it may be looked to as cause for 

 poor draft, 



5. That the flue is at least six or 

 seven inches in depth and never less in 

 area than the size of the smoke-pipe 

 given by boiler manufacturer. 



6. That the boiler sets as near the 

 chimney as possible, thus shortening the 

 length of the smoke-pipe, which is de- 

 sirable. 



7. That the smoke-pipe does not pro- 

 ject into the chimney too far, and thus 

 lessen the area of the flue at this impor- 

 tant pointy where the smoke leaves the 

 pipe and enters the flue.
