The Florists' Review 



TRAVIS GREENHOUSE ROCKER GRATES 



Built for any size or style of boiler. Handles soft lump coal, which clinkers badly, also hard coal, in a flrst-class 

 manner, and releases the ashes without molesting the flrebed. They excel any other make of grate for cleaning a coal 

 fire. It is an absolue fact that the scientific handling of a coal fire is to release the ashes and cinders beneath without 

 disturbing the firebed. 



Our Grates will accomplish the above results. Give size of furnace and we wUl quote exact prices.

of the main flow pipe with these re- 

 turns by means of a 1^-inch pipe. 



In cdse the temperature desired in 

 the main house is only 50 degrees, place 

 valves on four of the return pipes, 

 wherever convenient. If for any reason 

 the use of 1-inch returns is preferred, 

 ^ generator should be connected with 

 the expansion tank, an-d the flow should 

 be given a slight fall in all cases. Thir- 

 teen returns would suflSce for 55 to 60 

 'legrees. Natural gas could be used for 

 fuel.

 suitable for heating Greenhouses. Abrams Creek coal 

 is about as near smokeless as a Bituminous coal 

 can be.

 then, at the north side of the range, a 

 begonia house, 10x30, with the boiler 

 room at its east end and the potting 

 room at its west end. The houses are 

 all connected. 



All the pipes are to be under the 



benches, except in the lettuce house, 

 where they will be on the sides. All 

 the houses are five feet high to the 

 eaves, with glass in the gables and two 

 feet of glass in the sides, with the ex- 

 ception of the north wall. I shall use 

 1%-inch pipe and I wish to carry ten 

 pounds of steam. The outside temper-
