atus in the newer houses practically 

 without change. The approaching sum- 

 mer season will see a great deal of 

 overhauling in boiler-houses and under 

 benches for the purpose of saving coal 

 next winter. 



COAL AT CHICAGO. 



The smokeless coals are not by any 

 means the only ones burned in green- 

 houses in the middle west, but the large 

 growers in and around Chicago use so 

 much of this class of fuel that there is 

 much interest in its market. The fol- 

 lowing is from the Black Diamond of 

 May 2: 



"Pocahontas coal has been extremely 

 dull. A few more contracts have been 

 closed up this last week for the year 

 at prices -which were fixed some time 

 ago. A great percentage of this busi- 

 ness in the general tea<*es is already 

 closed up. Shipments on contracts arc 

 being taken, but not with any zest. 

 There is practically no spot buying of 

 ant moment and whenever any consign- 

 nient coal gets on the market it Is sac-

Qentlenien : 



I assure you that I am perfectly 

 satisfied with the Morehead System. 

 I never was so surprised in all my 

 life, to think that for seven years I 

 used gravity returns in mv green- 

 houses, allowine tbe condeiisalion to 

 return back to the boilrrs practically 

 cold, and now find that I have a 

 steam trap that works 0. K.; does 

 just as you represent it in every way. 

 I am certain that if I had had the 

 Morehead System seven years ago 

 I would have been $10uO richer 

 today. 



Wishing you the best of success. 

 I remain. 



Yours very truly,

The circular price is $1.25, but no 

 large part of the greenhouse contracts 

 have thus far been closed. 



TWO SMALL ILLINOIS HOUSES. 



I should like to ask about the piping 

 for two greenhouses, standing side by 

 side, each 10x30, or 20x30 combined. 

 The^houses run east and west and 

 have 6-foot side walls. There are three 

 feet of glass in the exposed walls,

Kroescheli Best of All 



The Kroeschell Boiler I installed 

 last year usually runs from 10 p.m. 

 to 6 a.m. without attention. I do 

 not have the least trouble to keep 

 temperatures in the coldest wea- 

 ther. The boiler has given entire 

 satisfaction. 



The Kroeschell is the best boiler 

 we have ever handled.

KraescheU Replaces Cast Inn 



I am heating between 1 7,' 00 and 

 1H,000s<]. ft. of glass with the No. 

 1 2 Kroeschell, maintaining .SO to 54 

 degrees in the greenhouses. 



I have night fireman and we fire 

 about every hour in extreme cold 

 weather, but in ordinary weather 

 every two or three hours, leaving 

 the boiler run five to six hours at 

 the last firing.

 MAKES OF SECTIONAL CAST

 turn to the sectional boiler und'r 

 any consideration.
