your proposed change. But I gather 

 that the problem is to heat a house 13x 

 30, together with a greenhouse 18x40 

 and office room, with a boiler rated to 

 ■cany 500 feet. If the office room can 

 be cut out in severe weather it may be 

 possible to do this, but you will be work- 

 ing on mighty close margins. The house 

 13x30 ought to be handled with ten 

 IVa-inch returns, but the house 18x40 

 should have at least thirteen pipes of 

 that size. I believe the boiler is capable 

 of doing the worl^ however, and would 

 be willing to take the chance if I could 

 get the expansion tank eighteen to twenty 

 feet above the highest point in the heat- 

 ing system and connected directly with 

 the main return close to the boiler.

We have a greenhouse 20x48 feet, heat- 

 ■ed by a sectional hot water boiler with 

 a grate surface of three square feet. 

 One 2-inch flow pipe runs out at the 

 west side and feeds seven l^/.-inch re- 

 turns under the middle bench. Another 

 5-inch flow runs out at the east side and

SAVE THE COAL 



Every dollar saved In coal is a dollar added to your earnings— to your profit. 

 It will be diiHcult to get cleaner-cut evidence of the money-saving side of Capitol 

 Boilers than that given by the Ellsworth Greenhouses. Grand Island, Neb., 

 .who write: 



"We have one of your Capitol Boilers in our greenhouses, and it is 

 the flnest steam boiler we ever saw. Glass surface is hard to heat, but 

 we have no trouble whatever. It is saving us coal, and we can keep a 

 better temperature than we ever bad before. No work to take care 

 of it." 



Here is testimony from practical florists who have the same conditions to 

 meet, the same troubles to overcome, the same expenses to watch as you have, 

 and if the Capitol Boiler is a money-saver for them it will certainly be for you. 



Then there is the quick renalr feature of Capitol Boilers. But send for our 

 descriptive Catalogue today, or write or call on one of our Branches or Sales 

 Agencies.
