The Weekly Florists' Review* 



April 18, 1912. 



Where There Is Condensation 



— there is need for a Morehead Steam Trap. Condensation in 

 steam lines is akin to matter out of place — means wasted energy. 

 If your lines are sluggish — if your houses are not of uniform 

 temperature, write us. We guarantee to drain your lines per- 

 fectly — return the pure, hot condensation to your boiler without 

 pump or injector or make no charge for the trial. Obey that 

 impulse — write now.

will depend partly on the strength of 

 the boiler and of the expansion tank, 

 and partly on the difficulties that have 

 to be overcome in the way of circula- 

 tion and shortage of radiation. As a 

 rule, the sj'stem should be capable of 

 standing at least forty pounds, and 

 often: the tanks used are guaranteed for 

 200 pounds. The pressure should range 

 between these two points. The lower 

 the pressure, the greater will be the 

 economy in heating, and at the same 

 time the greater will be the expense of 

 installing the system. F. R. 



STEAM OB HOT WATER? 



Will you please tell us which heating 

 system, steam or hot water, is better 

 adapted for the northern latitudes, 

 where the thermometer sometimes reg- 

 isters about 35 to 40 degrees below 

 zero, and the inside temperature should 

 be 60 or 75 degrees at night? 



M. & L. 



Whether hot water or steam should 

 be used will depend largely upon the 

 size of the plant, as hot water is usually 

 considered better for small ranges and 

 steam for large ones. Generally speak- 

 ing, it is advisable to use steam only 

 in greenhouse plants large enough to 

 warrant the employment of a night 

 fireman. In particularly severe cli- 

 mates, the difference in the cost of the 

 piping for steam, as compared with that 

 for hot water, might make it desirable 

 to use steam even in comparatively 

 small ranges. For ranges of 10,000 

 square feet and upwards, steam can 

 generally be used with good success, but 

 hot water usually is recommended where 

 it can be used. F. R. 



Bellefontaine, O. — There is a pretty 

 story going the rounds of the local 

 newspapers to the effect that rats were 

 eating the stock of John Stelzig and 

 defied all attempts at their capture un- 

 til he began baiting his traps with car- 

 nations instead of cheese. 



Columbia City, Ind. — Benjamin Lip- 

 man, formerly with Heller Bros., at 

 New Castle, and who leased the North 

 Side Greenhouses here May 1, 1911, for 

 a term of ten years, has purchased the 

 plant. Mr. Lipman expects to enlarge 

 the place the coming summer.
