PIPING TWO HOUSES. 



I am going to build a greenhouse plant 

 of the general dimensions described below 

 and want to know the way you would 

 pipe the houses in order to get a tem- 

 perature of 56 degrees, in weather 10 

 degrees below zero. There will be a south 

 house 30x60. This house will be sixteen 

 feet to the ridge, having glass ends to 

 within three feet of the ground. The 

 south wall will be four feet to the gutter, 

 with two and a half feet of glass. Ad- 

 joining on the north, in a space 18x60, 

 will be the boiler shed, 18x18, at the west 

 €nd, a smaller greenhouse, 18x32, in the 

 center, and at the east end an office, lOx 

 18. The smaller greenhouse will have a 

 wall four feet high on the north and the 

 boiler shed and office will be eight and 

 ten feet respectively to the ceiling. 



The boiler is a steel shell, ten feet long 

 and thirty inches in diameter, with six- 

 teen 3-inch flues. I can only go deep 

 enough to put the top of the boiler eight- 

 een inches below the return pipes. I 

 have 3^ -inch boiler flues for flow pipes 

 and 4-inch boiler flues for return. I have 

 only one 4-inch flow and one 4-inch return 

 in the boiler. Under these conditions, 

 would it be better to provide the boiler 

 with more openings? J. C. McP. 



Since the boiler is located practically 

 at the northwest corner of the house 30x 

 60, run a 4-inch flow across the west end, 

 teeing off into the heating pipes, these to 

 be gathered into a 4-inch return running 



GET WISE 



to the fact 



you will 



by installing The Martin Rooklnc Grate. Costs a little more than ordinary 



grates, but the coal bums— it doesn't go into the ashpit. 

 We refer to Peter Reinberg, Emil Buettner, Bassett & Washburn, Wietor Bros., Adam Zender, 

 Sinner Bros., Albert Dickinson Seed Co., and many others. They will tell you to order the Martin 

 Kooking Grate for the new boilers to be put in this season. Write for catalogue and prices.
