The United States Geological Survey 

 has been investigating the waste incident 

 to smoking chimneys and estimates that 

 ten per cent of the country 's fuel bill can 

 be saved by the smokeless burning of 

 coal, which now is practically accom- 

 plished by several mechanical stokers. 



PIPING A ROSE HOUSE. 



Please tell us liow to heat a house 16x50 

 with hot water, to suit Bride and Brides- 

 maid roses. The height of the house from 

 ground to ridge is eleven feet, and four 

 and one-half feet from ground to gutter. 

 This house is located on the south side 

 of a shed, both running east and west. 1 

 should like to use a 2^rinch flow and 2- 

 inch returns. Please give estimate for 

 zero weather, in this Iowa climate. 



Z. & S. 



It will take ten 2-inch returns to keep 

 the house at 56 degrees in zero weather. 

 These should be put just under the edge 

 of the benches; if three benches, one on 

 each side; if two benches, three pipes 

 under each bench, with one extra pipe on 

 the shed wall and the remainder on the 

 exposed side. I would advise putting in 

 a 3-inch flow and a 3-inch main return 

 into the boiler. Set the boiler in a pit 

 about twice as deep as the boiler is high. 

 Get the vertical flow and return as long 

 as possible, to insure a good working 

 system. G. T. E. 



CAPAQTY OF BOILER. 



I have a steam boiler which I wish to 

 turn into a hot water boiler. It is of the 

 bricked-in type, with a firebox 3x4 feet. 

 The boiler is thirty-six inches in diameter 

 in the upper section, the total height 

 being six feet. In the part back of the 

 firebox there are eighteen 4-inch flues,

What is the Most Vital Point 

 in Grate Construction? 



Grate makers and neers agree 

 that the most important point 

 is to keep the air spaces open 

 as long as possible nnder all 

 conditions. 



We guarantee to k«ep the 

 air spaces of the 



Martin Anti-rrictlon 

 Rocking Grate 



open longer under any condi- 

 tions than can be done by any 

 other grate in existence. 

 The hottest fire yoa can build will not warp a " Martin," and it can be 

 installed without disturbing the brick work. 



We refer to Peter Reinberg, Emil Buettner, Bassett & Washburn, Wietor 

 Bros., Adam Zender, Sinner Bros., Albert Dickinson Co., and many others.
