The Detroit Steam Trap Co., Detroit, 

 writes as follows: "On page 60 of 

 the Review for September 3 there ap- 

 peared a statement from the Morehead 

 Mfg. Co., of Detroit. We have been in- 

 serting an ad in your issues since August 

 20, under the name of the Detroit Steam 

 Trap Co., for the Detroit Steam Trap. 

 This trap is entirely different from the 

 one which the American Blower Co., of 

 Detroit, was advertising previous to the 

 above mentioned date. As to the De- 

 troit trap, which we are advertising in 

 your columns, we assert positively it is 

 not mixed up in any litigation what- 

 soever. ' ' 



A COIL BOILER. 



I have two greenhouses in Illinois, one 

 18x50 and the other 9x90, which I 

 should like to heat with a coil boiler, and 

 I should like you to give me any infor- 

 mation which would help me to make 

 one. I have 4-inch pipes in the houses. 

 Please state the size of boiler and pipes 

 to be used. G. R. 



You fail to state the temperature de- 

 sired in your houses, but I have as- 

 sumed that in j'our climate a 60-deirree 

 temperature will give you ample radia- 

 tion for most plants that you will care 

 to grow. The two houses, on this basis, 

 require a boiler capable of carrying 900 

 square feet of radiation. The boiler, 

 to carry this amount of pipe, should con- 



BANG? WHO NEXT? 



PijUasant Hill, Mo., Sept. 20, 1907.— A boiler exploded early today In the 

 ponservatory of Geo. M. Kellogg, three mlleB Irom here, partially destroying the 

 plant and causing damane eetimated at $75,000. Over half of the plant was saved. 

 The eonservatories are among the largest in the west. 



With a CAPITOL. BOILXR this explosion would have been impossible. 

 Safety is better than Insurance. The actual property loss may be covered by 

 infeurance, but the 1( ss of business cannot. 



Be on the safe side. Equip your greenhouse with a Capitol Boiler and 

 you will have safety from explosion, the lowest possible fuel expense, the lowest 

 expense in attention and the most in heating eHiciency. Add to this long years of 

 service, and quick repairs, when repairs are necessary, by reason of the divided 

 sections. These days of keen competition leave no room for experiment. The 

 Capitol Boiler is a necessity of every florist.

Dear Sirs:— If the Morehead Return Trap cost ten times what you ask for it, it would 

 be cheap when time, labor and cost of repairs are consid- 

 ered, in comparison with the steam pump I had installed 

 before getting your Trap. I cannot praise it too highly and 

 I recommend it to everyone who talks steam. Yours,
