Hitchings' Boilers Are Easy To Set Ip 



Note the eue with wblch the base can be 

 put toKether— a few minutes, work with a 

 wrench. 



If you add more sections to your boiler, 

 you can add to the base by simply removing: 

 the front piece, bolting: on as many more 

 base sections as you need, and replacing 

 the front without disturbing: the sections 

 already in place. 



What a lot cheaper and easier this way 

 is with our cast Iron boiler than having: to 

 build a large brick pit as is necessary with 

 most wrought iron boilers.

across the east end of the house and to 

 be carried back to the boiler under the 

 north bench. Put two 1%-inch pipes on 

 the walls and seven 2-inch pipes under the 

 benches, distributing them as evenly as 

 possible. You will then have eleven pipes 

 the length of the house, besides the flow 

 across the west end and the return across 

 the east end and down the north side. 



It would be better to have a separate 

 opening in the boiler for a 4-inch flow for 

 the small north side house 18x32. At the 

 boiler-shed end of the house divide into 

 live 2-inch radiating pipes, and two l%r 

 inch on the outside wall, running to the 

 far endj there to be gathered into a 

 4-inch return to come back to the boiler. 

 Carry a separate 2-inch flow through this 

 house to take care of the radiators in of- 

 fice, which stands at the farther end. 



Put valves at each end of each radiat- 

 ing pipe, so that any can be cut out as 

 the weather conditions make desirable; 

 you will not need them all except in se- 

 vere weather. 



It would be better to put the boiler 

 lower, although the top eighteen inches 

 below the returns will do. A good fall to 

 the boiler, however, makes for quicker 

 circulation', and a rapid circulation means 

 a saving in the fuel bill. It usually is 

 money well spent to get the boiler well 

 down and the expansion tank well up.

AND YOU BUY A GUARANTEE 



It takes 90 to 120 lbs. of steam per horse power to operate 

 an ordinary boiler feed pump. "Detroit" Return Traps 

 require only about one-tenth that amount. Why not save 

 the nine-tenths ?

 in your greenhouses, for our pioposition.

At the Mount Desert Nurseries, owned 

 by George B. Dorr, of Boston, and man- 

 aged by William Miller, a complete and 

 effective automatic sprinkling system is 

 being installed. Already 2,500 feet of 

 pipes have been laid for this purpose, 

 and probably 10,000 feet more will be in- 

 stalled before the end of the season. 

 And next summer Mr. Dorr plans to 

 double this amount. It will be used in 

 every part of the gardens, placed high
