Battle Creek, Mich.— The Kellogg 

 Toasted Corn Flake Co. has nearly com- 

 pleted the erection of a large green- 

 house. 



Santa Cruz, Cal.— Carl Purdy, of 

 Ukiah, Oal., was a recent visitor here, 

 inspecting the gardens of the Leedham 

 Bulb Co. and making other calls. He 

 says business is excellent. The Leed- 

 ham Bulb Co. is exceedingly busy ship- 

 ping gladiolus and Calla EUiottiana 

 bulbs, and is also planting heavily this 

 season. The representatives of the Hol- 

 land bulb growers seem to be arriving 

 here early this year.

LESS COAL=MORE HEAT. 



WHY? — More Heatiiif Surface "'^ '''.7"f 



^ space than is 



contained in any other boiler. (Note the many flues set close 

 together.) This is one reason why the users of the 



''Superior Standard" Greenhouse Boilers 



find them perfectly satisfactory. We frequently receive re-orders 

 from florists who have tested these boilers thoroughly and found 



them even "Superior" 

 to our claims. 



Why not ask for foil particulars

A Steady 

 Pressure 



will always 

 be main- 

 tained in 

 Toar Bteam pipes, no matter 

 now the pressure at the boiler 

 floctoates, if you equip yonr 

 main lines with these valves. 

 Carry 40 or 60 poimds pressure 

 on the boiler, set the 



Hughson 

 Regulating Valve 



to carry 6 or 10 pounds on the 

 line and you will always have a 

 reserve in case of a sudden drop 

 in temperature. This valve 

 saves both fuel and worry. Ask 

 for catalogue and particulars.
