boiler capable of heating an extension to 

 the present house, doubling its length, or 

 could the proposed extension be- inde- 

 pendently piped, thus making two sepa- 

 rate houses? Could the system be con- 

 nected with the village water main, which 

 is not high pressure, and thus do away 

 with an expansion tank? The required 

 temperature is 55 degrees in zero weather. 



A. B. R. 



Your boiler is a little small, but if 

 worked hard it will keep the houses at 55 

 degrees in zero weather. Your addition 

 can be piped as a separate house; in 

 fact, that is the simplest and easiest way 

 to do it. Put in the same number of 

 pipes as are in the other house. 



I would not connect the system to the 

 city water, as there are various troubles 

 from such arrangement. Put the expan- 

 sion tank in ; one with a good capacity 

 and as high up as possible. G. T. E.

The Market. 



The market conditidns are about as 

 usual at this time of the year. Stock is 

 of poor quality and prices are low. The 

 wholesalers have an easy time to dis- 

 pose of the better grade of stock, which 

 is scarce, but of the second and third 

 grades the market is pretty well sup- 

 plied. The weather is hot and nearly 

 all of our local growers are throwing out 

 their roses and carnations, which should 

 limit the supply and raise the prices a 

 little. 



The local retailers are only laying in 

 a small stock each morning, as business is 

 down to funeral work only. Monday 

 morning, June 28, consignments showed 

 roses and carnations of poor quality, and 

 sweet peas with much shorter stems than 

 usual. * Lily of the valley is good, also 

 gladioli and a few asters. All kinds of 

 greens are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Schaeffer has returned to the 

 city after a visit to his parents in Ger- 

 many, and has taken a position with
