used. It will be found best to use 2- 

 inch pipe, and for heating a green- 

 house of the size mentioned I would 

 suggest the use of fifteen pipes, eight 

 feet in length. These would extend 

 back from the rear of the grate for a 

 distance of three and one-half feet. The 

 pipes can either be arranged so as to 

 be all over the fire-pot, or a part of 

 them can be on the sides. The over- 

 head pipes may be anywhere from fif- 

 teen to eighteen inches above the grate, 

 and if room for firing pottery is de- 

 sired over the pipes, space for it should 

 be left when putting in the boiler. Of 

 course the return pipes should connect 

 with the bottom of the coils, while the 

 flow pipes should lead out from the top 

 and, if possible, the returns should con- 

 nect with the latter, while the flow 

 pipes should be joined at the front of 

 the coil. Owing to their size apd the 

 difficulty of supporting them, the 4- 

 inch pipes are generally under the 

 benches, but it is a g|ood plan to have 

 the flow pipes carried upon the wall 

 space. •

"While some of the concerns in the coal 

 trade that have well established busi- 

 ness with florists are able' to report the 

 usual number of contracts signed at the 

 opening of July, it appears to be the 

 fact that the coal business as a whole 

 through June has not cmne up to the 

 expectations of the coal trade. The 

 prices asked under the new order of 

 thing seem to be the reason. Many 

 coal merchants admit that they have 

 not been able to close as much business 

 as usual, either with the greenhouse 

 trade or with other large consumers. 

 Buyers seem to be holding off in the 

 nope that prices will fall. While he is 

 a rash man who will predict what will 

 happen, the coal trade does not look for 

 anything other than a steady market 

 during the balance of the summer and 

 a strong market as autumn approaches, 

 it is asserted that the prices this season
