Gentlemen:— We have before us your inquiry regarding 

 the continued operation of our SImuiids Vacuum System 

 anfl we are very glad to report as follows : 



One block of glass containing about three acres was 

 fitted out with this system iu the summer of 1906, and another 

 block of about two acres in the summer of 1909. We are at 

 this writing just drawing a long breath after six weeks of 

 intense cold and stoimy weather. 



Neither plant has given us one moment's trouble and we 

 are well pleased with geeieral results. We are able with this 

 system to develop additional heat in any portion of the 

 plant and find radiation equally effective under the glass 

 farthest removed from the boileis. 



We think we made no mistake in st'lpcting thi* method 

 of heating and would put in the same if we had it to do again. 



Wishing you success, we remain, 



Truly yours, 



DUNBAR & HOPKINS.

 Gentlemen: — In looking over our heating system at Edgebrook. whifih 

 you installed, and comparing it.with what we had tlurc last year, we feel 

 that it is due you to let you kuow how well satisfied we are'with reference 

 to same. 



Although we hivc only bf en usirgitfora short time, still the indica- 

 tions are thai there will be a great saving In fuel and that the expense that 

 we had there this season will oe more than paid for in the flrsft-teason. 



The courteous treatment that has been given us, we assure you, has 

 also l)een ap|)reciated. and we hope when the season is over that we will 

 be able to give you some figures which you can use as a comparison and 

 wliich mijht be of benefit to other tlorists, who had the same trouble as 

 we had. 



It is only a common-sense proposition, as we all know that air-bound 

 pipes and poor circulaiion take a very high pressure to push the steam 

 around and a high pressure means fuel, which is done awar with by the 

 vacuum system, so thai there is no resistance there at all and an even tem- 

 perature and low cost of operation is the result. 



Very truly yours, 



THE GEORGE WITl'BOLD CO. 



Per Louis Wittbold. 



THE ONLY PROOF 



is the opinion of users.

 end of all your heatiog troubles and a plant fully protected against the coldfst zero weather at a 

 constant saving of fuel.
