Springfield, Mo., May 15, 1906. 

 Gentlemen :— Yours of the 11th at hand. The Wilks heater bought 

 from you last fall has done finely. We burned coke and it has done just 

 fine. By filling up the magazine about 9 or 10 o'clock and closing it up 

 all around, we found a good fire in it by 7 a. m. The grate is one of the 

 best arrangements we ever saw for an ordinary sized plant. It is one of 

 the best heaters I have ever seen. Yours truly.

pansion tank considerably; it now is 

 twelve feet above the boiler and con- 

 nected both with the feed pipe and the 

 return, for I like to keep the tank warm. 

 Would a Kroeschell generator or a Castle 

 circulator help me with my circulation?

With 80 little data as to the conditions 

 it is impossible to offer any more than 

 general suggestions. Indeed, these built- 

 onto systems that have been patched and 

 tinkered year after year often are in 

 such a state that one on the ground 

 would find it difficult to prescribe any 

 effective remedy short of a complete 

 overhauling of the plant. It is quite 

 likely that if the pipes can all be brought 

 to one grade the system as a whole will 

 work better than it does with them run- 

 ning up hill and down dale, like the 

 scenic railway in an amusement park.

is enough; cut off the connection with 

 the flow and let it remain on the return 

 if near the boiler. 



The Kroeschell generator is an excel- 

 lent addition to many systems and pos- 

 sibly if you write to them they will 

 recommend it in your case; its effect is 

 to make the water hotter in the pipes by 

 adding pressure greater than that of 

 the atmosphere. The Castle circulator 

 IS qiute a different affair; it is a pump 

 Which, attached in the return near the 

 Doner, will make the water move, but it
