Another Thing About Quick Repair 



We have said, "In case of any accident to the sections 

 of Improved Capitol Boilers, quick repairs can be 

 accomplished more quickly and easily than with any 

 other boiler." 



There is something else, though. 



Should it be necessary to make use of the quick repair 

 feature, the permanent repair can be made with less 

 expense. Why? Because Capitol Boilers have divided 

 sections. The sections being in halves, it is not neces- 

 sary to purchase a section for the entire width of the 

 boiler, but for only one half.

location of the pipes, which we desire to 

 be all overhead, as we do not want any 

 bottom heat and use solid beds. We are 

 located in Virginia. R. G. 



The size mentioned for the sashbars is 

 as large as will ])e required, provided a 

 purlin is used to strengthen them. The 

 height of the walls of the greenhouse 

 should be five or six feet, according to 

 the use to which it is to be put. For 

 many purposes it is also well to have at 

 least two feet of glass in the side walls. 

 In a house of this width it is generally 

 customary to have the ridge about six 

 feet above the plates or the gutters. 



To provide the heat required at 20 

 degrees above zero outside, two 2'i/>-inch 

 flow pipes and five 2-inch returns should 

 be furnished. When the temperature 

 drops as low as 10 degrees above zero it 

 will be advisable to have two 2i/4-inch 

 flow pipes and seven 2-inch returns, to 

 give a temperature of 50 degrees. 



ST. LOUIS. 



Tbe Market 



The report comes from the majority 

 of the florists that business last week was 

 not at all encouraging. The cause of this 

 was an unusual spell of warm weather; 

 Sunday, November 7, was more like an 

 August day than a November day. Had 

 it not been for a great deal of funeral 

 work it would have been extremely dull. 

 In turn the wholesalers suffered also and 

 stock piled up in great abundance. Even 

 carnations became too many for the first 

 time this season. The chrysanthemums 

 are now crowding the other stock and it 

 is beginning to look as though the whole-

salers arc in for a glut this week. The 

 stock of cut mums is good, with all fancy 

 grades selling best. Small white varieties 

 in bunches sold well for funeral work, 

 but too many came in. 



Beauties are in plenty in all grades, 

 also other roses. These are selling 

 cheaper than any time this year. Good 

 fancies in the smaller roses sell well. 

 Carnations are becoming fine and they 

 are plentiful now, with prices greatly re- 

 duced. Violets, both double and single, 

 are more than the demand can handle. 

 Valley sells well, as usual. An extra good 

 demand for greens was reported.
