Upon decidinfc to iDstall 

 a battery of three water 

 boilers and one steam, as 

 an auxiliary (and for 

 sulphuring), you chose 



^Bumham 



because you knew what 

 it could do— knew that its 

 economy wan not a talk- 

 ing point, but a fact, prov- 

 en over and over again.

to pump out the water and insert a pan, 

 the sides of which will come above the 

 water line, and then on the inside of this 

 put in the concrete work? The boiler has 

 no dome; total height to top of brick- 

 work, 105 inches; top of boiler, 93 inches; 

 water line, 73 inches. I shall be glad if 

 you will give me information as to how 

 to properly set the boiler, carry the 

 mains and returns (at what height and 

 grade) in both houses. Should not most 

 of the returns be under the benches in 

 the rose house? At the same time, would 

 it not be well to have two lines of ly^^- 

 inch pipe overhead on either side of the 

 main flow in each house, and for the 

 carnation house should any returns be 

 under the benches? I also have in mind 

 using bent pipe on both main flows and 

 returns to allow for expansion and con- 

 traction. Is this advisable? If not, tell 

 me of something better. I expect to use 

 King material for these houses and want 

 everything perfect without any frills.

In digging out your boiler-room, do 

 not go to the expense of putting in a 

 ])an, but dig a well about six or eight 

 feet square and about that deep; run a 

 suction pipe from your power pump and 

 use this water in your greenhouses. 



Set the boiler about six feet below the 

 place where the return enters the boiler-
