be advisable to use three 2 1^ -inch flow 

 pipes (or five 2-inch), with nine 2-inch 

 returns in bouse No. 1, and twelve re- 

 turns in house No. 2. In bouse No. 3, 

 use three 2-inch flow pipes and nine 

 2-ineh returns. The returns can be ar- 

 ranged in the walks, as proposed, and can 

 be connected by means of manifolds. 

 Two of the flow pipes can be on the side 

 walls and the others on one of the pur- 

 lins. 



If the system is connected with the 

 artesian well mentioned, there will be no 

 occasion for an expansion tank. 



HEAT FOR FALL AND SPRING. 



I have a range of eight houses. Houses 

 No. 1 to 6 are connected and parallel. 

 House No. 1 is 10x70; houses No. 2 to 6 

 are each 20x70. Extending across the 

 ends of these six houses is house No. 7, 

 and parallel with the latter is house No. 

 8; each of these is 16x100. I -am also 

 planning to build another house, 38x100, 

 parallel with house No. 8. The boiler 

 house is located at the corner where 

 houses No. 1 ana No. 7 meet. 



The range is heated by steam, but I 

 should like to install also a hot water 

 boiler, to be used during early fall and 

 spring. I thought of running one hot 

 water flow and return through house No. 

 7. What size of flow and return would 

 be required, and how many 2-inch pipes 

 would be needed in each house to main- 

 tain a temperature of 60 degrees when 

 the outside temperature is 30 degrees! 

 What size of boiler wonld be suiniblet 

 I think I should prefer a sectional boiler. 

 I am located in Pennsylvania. E. W. 



To furnish heat as indicated, about 

 one-half as much radiating surface will 

 be required as to do the work through 

 the winter months. We would suggest 

 for the houses 20x70 feet that one 2%- 

 inch flow and four 2-inch returns be 

 used; for the houses 16x100 feet, one 

 2%-inch flow and three 2-inch returns; 

 for the house 10 by 70 feet, one 2-inch 



Would You Save One-Quarter of Your Coal Bill?

A Kitts Improved Hydraulic Damper Regulator. 



Florist Peter Crowe, Rose Place, Utlca, N. Y., voluntarily writes:— 



" I am very much pleased to let you know that the Damper Regulator I bought from you 

 last fall 18 by far the best apparatus for greenhouse purposes. I had my book-keeper compare 

 my coal bill of last with that of this year and I find a saving of one quarter the amount of 

 this year's coal over last year's ; also the past winter was a great deal colder and longer than 



" There is another very good feature about the Damper Regulator, as it keeps a uniform 

 heat in all the houses at all times by putting on and shutting oft pipes. And I find that my 

 Roses and Ferns did far better this winter than any winter so far, as the temperature was so 



uniform at all times. , , • ^ , x ^w , r v • • 



'• My reason for writing you is to let you know, and also to thank you for bringing my 

 attention to the Regulator, and I assure you I cannot speak too highly of this machine." 



Are not facts like these worth an 

 investigation ?

To furnish heat for the radiation indi- 

 cated above, the boiler should be rated 

 for 3,000 square feet, and allowance 

 should be made for any prospective in- 

 crease in radiation.
