inch returns. The elevation of the ex- 

 pansion tank determines in all cases the 

 pressure on the system, unless one is 

 using the direct pressure from city 

 mains. In modern hot water heating the 

 expansion tank, connected with the main 

 return near the boiler, acts merely as 

 balance for the system, which for all 

 practical purposes is a closed system. 

 The old open system is seldom seen in 

 plants installed nowadays. L. C. C. 



ERE, PA. 



The Market. 



The city is smoky again from the rag- 

 ing forest fires. Everybody is praying 

 for rain. This has been an unusual year 

 for Erie in many respects. 



The chrysanthemum season is at hand 

 and the floral stores present a beautiful 

 appearance, decorated with the gorgeous 

 fall flowers. Yellow mums are in great 

 demand here; the supply does not seem 

 to be equal to the demand. Violets are 

 seen in small quantities, both single and 

 double. The Amerpohlii fern is fast 

 becoming a general favorite here; when 

 well grown it is a "feast to the eye." 



Summer visitors who had come here to 

 seek the cooling breezes of Lake Erie 

 are now returning to the metropolis 

 again. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. M. E. Caldwell, of Corry, Pa., 

 was in the city this week. She was buy- 

 ing stock for her greenhouses. 



Fred Wagner, teamster for Baur Floral 

 Co., met with a painful accident October 

 20. He lost control of the frightened 

 horses and was dragged several squares. 

 While his injuries are painful, they are 

 not thought to be serious. 



Ora Hill, son of E. C. Hill, of this 

 city, is managing the Corry Greenhouses, 

 at Corry, Pa. 



Miss Frances Berger has returned from 

 a trip to Cincinnati and Columbus, O. 



B. P. 



Worcester, Mass. — Frank Sokol has 

 bought the greenhouses and business of 

 the late Hugo Book.
