The Rorists' Review 



Mabch 20, 1913. 



Where There Is Cofldensatiofl 



— 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.

possible to obtain 60 degrees with the 

 radiation mentioned, unless a mercury 

 generator is used, but if a generator is 

 installed fairly good results will be 

 possible, although more fuel will be re- 

 quired in zero weather than if an open 

 system is used. One tank only need be 

 used and this can be located in the 

 attic of the residence. By connecting 

 the highest point in each of the green- 

 house flow pipes with the 3-inch flow 

 pipe leading to the residence, air valves 

 will be rendered unnecessary. 



FOE EITHER GAS OB COAL. 



I am going to build a greenhouse in 

 the coming summer, and of course I 

 am on the lookout for a boiler. 

 I want a small boiler in which I can 

 bum natural gas, and if the gas should 

 fail I would want to use coal tem- 

 porarily, returning afterward to the use 

 of gas. Here, in Oklahoma, we have 

 stoves that contain a gas burner, with 

 a coal grate under the gas burner. 



L. S. H. 



While it is not possible to suggest 

 any particular size or make of boiler, 

 since the dimensions of the greenhouse 

 are not given, it is probable that, for 

 the purpose mentioned, almost any boiler 

 having a round grate could be used. 

 The rating of the boiler in square feet 

 of radiation should be about one-fourth 

 the number of square feet of glass in 

 the house. Such a boiler would heat 

 the house using coal, and when natural 

 gas is available the supply pipe could 

 be carried up between the grate bars 

 and the gas burner attached. 



BOILERS AND SMOKESTACK. 



At present we have a seventy horse- 

 power tubular boiler, with which we are 

 heating four houses, each 32 x 140. I 

 should like to know how many more 

 houses of the sfime dimensions we can 

 heat with this boiler. We wish to main- 

 tain a temperature of 65 degrees, and 

 the outside temperature in this part of 

 Idaho sometimes drops as low as 12 de- 

 grees below zero. How high a chimney 

 will be needed to get the best results?. 

 The altitude of the land here is about 

 2,000 feet. We also have two hot water 

 boilers, with which we are heating ten 

 houses, each 20x100. The draft in 

 these boilers is not satisfactory. The
