Take a can of this preparation, dilute to four times its bulk with water, and wash or spray 

 your palms, ferns, aspidistras, smilax or any plants subject to bugs or vermin and your 

 plants will be clean. No alkali. Nothing deleterious. Dries at once.

RUTBBBFOBD, N. J.. JUDC 28, 1906. 



We have thoroughly tried your Plant Oil with very striklnK results. We may say this Is the first Insecticide we have tried on our palms 

 that will remove the scale with the first application. We would like to say this is one of the few things that the florists cannot afford to be 

 without, especially those who are growing palms and decorative plants. After one application of the oil the plants take on an entirely new 

 appearance. We would be pleased to have prospective buyers visit our nurseries and inspect the palms on which w> have used your oil.

PIPING A SMALL HOUSE. 



My greenhouse is to be 19x50; twelve 

 and a half feet to the ridge and sides 

 five feet high, including sixteen inches 

 of glass for side lights. The house is 

 exposed on all sides and we have to 

 figure on 20 degrees below zero. Hard 

 coal will be used. Pipes will be under 

 the benches. What size pipes and how 

 many valves should be used! Can an 

 overflow pipe from the expansion tank be 

 returned to the boiler f C. G. A. 



From the type of house you have de- 

 scribed I assume it is to be used for 

 roses or general stock, and have there- 

 fore figured the piping on the basis of 

 such plants. 



The piping can best be done with 2- 

 inch pipe, which will require fifteen runs 

 of pipe the length of the house, six 

 returns fed by a reserve flow on the 

 most protected side of the house and a 

 flow and seven returns on the most ex- 

 posed side. It will probably be advan- 

 tageous with this amount of radiation 

 to place valves at each end of the four 

 returns, two in each coil. If this is done 

 use gate valves only on a hot water sys- 

 tem. It will not be practicable to return 

 the overflow from the expansion tank to 

 the boiler. The only way to overcome 

 such loss is to have a large expansion
