Greenhouse Heating. 



Subscribers are invited to write the 

 Editor of this Department with regard to 

 any details of greenhouse heating that 

 are not understood. But please do not 

 ask The Review to make a choice of ap- 

 paratus for you. The greenhouse heating 

 equipment advertised in this paper is, we 

 believe, the best for the trade to buy, 

 and each article the best in the special 

 field of its adaptation. 



A CABNATION HOUSE. 



Kindly let us know how many 

 runs of 2-inch pipe will be needed to 

 heat a carnation house 21x65, six feet 

 high to the gutter and eleven feet high 

 to the ridge. The north side and both 

 ends are exposed; the south wall con- 

 tains two feet of concrete and four 

 feet of glass. Please state, also, how 

 many 3-inch flow pipes will be required. 

 The location is northern Iowa. 



L. & J. 



To heat a carnation house 21x65 

 feet, with four feet of glass in one 

 wall, when the mercury is 20 degrees 

 below zero, it will be well to use two 

 3-inch flow pipes and ten 2-inch re- 

 turns. Under the conditions mentioned, 

 however, it might be still better to use 

 three 2%-inch flow pipes and nine 2-inch 

 returns. One flow pipe could then be 

 upon each wall and the other under 

 the ridge, with the returns distributed 

 under the benches, or a part of these 

 could be upon each wall, if preferred.

THE FUEL SITUATION. 



The labor situation in West Virginia 

 is of prime importance to the green- 

 house trade. Large numbers of green- 

 house establishments use West Virginia 

 smokeless coals; probably it is not too 

 much to say that these smokeless coals 

 are the florists' favorite fuels. At 

 present the West Virginia fields are 

 full of dissension. The coal trade is 

 strongly organized, from a labor point

WHAT THE USERS SAY 



Better tlian All Otiiers 



I have fired boilers for the last forty years. The Kroaschali ■• th« b«st I hav« mvmt 



us«d. I have two cast iroD boilers, also a loromotive boiler coupled vilth yours, but did not 

 need to use the ca^t iron boilf rs this winter. Your No 7 boiler is ratad at 18,000 aq. ft. of 

 slaaa and catrlaa 25.000 sq. ft. of glass until the outside temperature goes down to IC 

 of frost. We have no trouble to keep temperatures in our houses with easy firing since we 

 installed your boiler. From the boiler to the farthest end of our violet bouses and return is 

 800 feet, and circulates very quickly. Tue Saltford Flower Shop,
