leading. There are hundreds of what 

 we should call large plants heated by 

 hot water throughout the United 

 States. During the last few years that 

 method of heating has become more 

 and more popular. The merits of hot 

 water heating have become recognized 

 to such an extent that any number of 

 ranges have been changed from steam 

 to hot water heat. 



Since the question in this case seems 

 to be mainly as to the use of hot water 

 for large ranges, we would give you 

 herewith the names of a few of our 

 customers who are heating their large 

 ranges with our hot water system, all 

 of which are giving most excellent sat- 

 isfaction: 



Frank Occhslin, Chicago, 70,000 square feet of 

 glass. 



R. Yonkcr, Grand Rapids, Mich., 25,000 square 

 feet of glass. 



B. Eldredge. Belvldere, HI., last year .-.6,000 

 square feet ot glass; Just ordered new addition 

 16,00;) square feet of glass. 



Capital City Greenhouses, Madison, Wis., 

 42,<XX) s(|nare feet of glass. 



Fred Stielow, Chicago, 56,000 square feet of 

 gln.ss. 



N. Zweifol, Milwaukee, Wis., 62,000 square 

 fei't of glass. 



Kiverbank Greenhouses, Geneva, III., 40,000 

 square feet of glass. 



Virginia Nurseries. Porcellville, Va., 50,000 

 sq'iare feet of glass. 



Manke Bros., North Milwaukee, Wis., 38,00a 

 s()uare feet of glass. 



Mueller & Schroeder, Milwaukee, Wis., 32,000 

 square feet of glass. 



.lacol) Hauck, Bloomfield, X. J., ■36,<KX> square 

 f'oct of glass. 



All of the above ranges are being 

 operated without the use of pumps. 



Furthermore, would state that the 

 demand for the heating of largo 

 ranges by hot water has increased to 

 such an extent that we have been 

 obliged to add to our list three larger 

 sizes of boilers, our largest size, No. 18, 

 being able to maintain the proper tem- 

 peratures in a range of greenhouses 

 consisting of 80,000 square feet of 

 glass. 



The cost of installation for hot water 

 heating, according to the latest meth- 

 ods, is but little more than for steam, 

 and the arrangement is such that every 

 advantage of both steam and hot water 

 may be obtained without the disad- 

 vantages of either. 



Kroeschell Bros. Co. 



La Porte, Ind.— The Kaber Co. had 

 the advantage of an enlarged and im- 

 proved show house for the Easter rush 

 and did a banner business. 



A Pointer on Fittings 



There are just four things that go to make fittings fit for greenhous( 

 heating. 



First : The use of the right kind of tough gray iron — not junk, scrap 

 heap brittle stufif. 



Second : Cast them thick enough to stand the racket. 



Third : Cast them accurately so they will be. fittings that fit. 



Fourtll Z "Know how." 



There is about as much know how as iron in one of our dependable 

 fittings. Sixty years ago we " knew how." Been getting more "know 

 how" ever since. That's a guarantee for you that can't be matched.
