you break up the 4-iiich flow from the 

 ridge into 2-inch returns? Or would 

 you run the 4-inch up from the boiler 

 to the height desired, run a branch 

 right and left, and reduce to 2i^-inch 

 flows, running one on each side of the 

 house and dropping into 2-inch returns, 

 as before? This will leave one extra 

 flow from the boiler to use in an addi- 

 tional house. 



Perhaps, it will not work to break up 

 a 4-inch into two 2^4 -inch flows, return 

 in thirteen 2-inch returns and connect 

 them with a 4-inch receiving pipe. There 

 are about 700 feet of this 4-inch pipe 

 that are good, but I can sell it if you 

 think it will work to break up at the 

 extreme end of the greenhouse. 



C. F. N. 



For large houses it is a good plan to 

 use 2%-inch flow pipes and 2-inch re- 

 turns, although good results can be ob- 

 tained with 4-inch pipe if the boiler can 

 be sunk several feet below the returns. 

 While 4-inch flow pipes might be car- 

 ried on the plates, it is not desirable to 

 have them at the ridge. 



The best way would be to run three 

 overhead 2i^-inch flow pipes, one under 

 the ridge and one on each plate, each 

 of which could supply a coil of three 

 2-inch returns, with an extra pipe under 

 the propagating bench. The 4-inch flow 

 could start at the boiler and rise to a 

 point two feet below the ridge, where 

 it could be broken up into three 2%- 

 inch flows, each of which should run 

 downhill at a slight fall to the farther 

 end of the house. If the 4-inch main 

 is run overhead, carry it to the farther 

 end of the house and then break it up, 

 as just directed. 



Albion, Mich. — M. & S. L. Dysinger 

 have secured a renewal of the contract 

 with the managers of the Riverside 

 cemetery, and will again do the bedding 

 there in 1911. They are also receiving 

 other l^rge orders and the outlook for 

 next season is bright. 



Columbia City, Ind. — During the sum- 

 mer D. C. Noble, in the northwest part 

 of the city, built an addition of two 

 houses, 42x150 feet. Lately they have 

 been increasing the size of their boiler 

 room and installing a new boiler. The 

 greater part of the space in their houses 

 is devoted to chrysanthemums and car- 

 nations.
