The unqualified favorite of leading florists for twenty years. 

 MAJESTIC 



A blocky splint coal. Intense, uniform and lasting beat. Minimum impurities, 

 a lower freight rate than Pocahontas. A trial car tarings a permanent customer.

HEAT IN SOUTHERN OSEOON. 



I have a new greenhouse, 20x75, 

 which I wish to heat with hot water. 

 It is three-fourths span. The north 

 wall, eight feet high, has no glass, 

 while the south wall, thirty-two inches 

 high, is all glass. The west end is all 

 glass, excepting thirty-two inches at 

 the J)ottom which is boarded. There is 

 a door in the center at this end. The 

 ridge is twelve feet high. The boiler 

 room is joined on the east end, which 

 has no glass, and is fourteen feet wide 

 and sixteen feet high, with a roof of 

 the same height and pitch as the green- 

 house. The house will be used for car- 

 nations. "We have no zero weather, 

 outside temperature seldom going be- 

 low 20 degrees above zero, and cold 

 spells are of short duration. Carna- 

 tions and violets live and bloom out- 

 side all winter. 



Please give me the size and number 

 of flows and returns to maintain a tem- 

 perature of 50 degrees at night; also 

 best arrangement of the same. You will 

 note that the expansion tank cannot 

 be placed any higher than the ridge of 

 greenhouse. Where shall the flow pipe 

 be placed, so that the tank will be six 

 feet above the highest point of the 

 heating system and not obstruct doors 

 and walks f 



No pipes can be placed under the 

 south bench and I would like all pipes 

 to be placed so I could use space under 

 the benches for bulbs. Shall it be the 

 downhill, uphill or level system of 

 piping? Would prefer to place the 

 boiler on south side of furnace room. 

 P. D. O. 



To heat a house, 20x75 feet, arranged 

 as described, to 50 degrees when 20 de- 

 grees above zero, use one 2i^-inch flow 

 pipe and seven 2-inch returns. The 

 boiler can be placed at any point de- 

 sired. Start with a 2%-inch flow and 

 carry it to a height about four feet 

 below the ridge, and then carry it at 

 a slight incline to the east end of the 

 greenhouse at a point in line with the 

 row of posts supporting the ridge. 

 There connect it with the expansion 

 tank, which should be overhead and as

are ail satisfied with the results it has given, and many 

 duplicate rrders is the proof. Tills Valve ^rfU main- 

 tala a steady pressure on the low side, no matter 

 how the initial pressure fluctuates. By carrying 40 or 50 

 pounds pressure on the boiler and setting the valve to 

 carry 6 or 10 pounds on the line, you always have a 

 .reserve to fall back on in rara of a sudden drop in tem- 

 perature. Our ne^7 oatalosue is Just out and if 

 you contemplate making any cnanges you had better
