OT-WATER APPARATUS FOR HEATING 



HORTICULTURALBUrLDINGS.DWELLING-HOUSES, 

 CHURCHES, and MANUFACTORIES, upon improved princi- 

 ples, and at very moderate charges, erected by DANIEL and 

 EDWARD BAILEY, 272, HOLBORN. 



D. and E.Bailey having devoted much time to the considera- 

 tion of this subject, and had much experience in the erection of 

 apparatus for the above-mentioned purposes, have, by improve- 

 ments suggested in their practice, rendered their mode of heat- 

 ing not only very efficient, but very simple, and have combined 

 durability in the apparatus with economy in the charge. They 

 have erected apparatus in England, Scotland, and Ireland, for 

 many noblemen and gentlemen, and have had the honour to be 

 employed by the Horticultural Society of London, in executing the 

 works of their splendid Conservatory, lately erected at Chiswick. 

 D. and E. Bailey also construct in metal all descriptions of 

 Horticultural Buildings and Sashes, and invite noblemen, gentle- 

 men, and the public to an inspection of their various drawings 

 and models, at 272, Holborn, where they have the opportunity of 

 exhibiting, amongst other metal works, an extremely complete 

 and convenient kitchen apparatus, or range, adapted for the con- 

 tinued supply of hot water, and an arrangement of the oven 

 more complete than has hitherto been brought before the public. 



D. and E. Bailey were the first to introduce metallic curvili- 

 near houses to horticulturists, andean refer to the Conservatory 

 a'tached to the Pantheon as one of their works, besides many 

 others in this country and on the Continent. 



D. and E. Bailey have prepared a quantity of the Galvanic 

 Plant Protectors, which are now ready for immediate delivery; 

 they beg to introduce to public notice a new Trough Pipe, for 

 Orchidaceous or other Houses where vapour is constantly, or at 

 (nte s required, and which mav be seen at their Manufactory.

PATENT ASPHALTE ROOFING. 



THE above Material has been used and approved by 

 the Nobility, Gentry, and Agriculturists generally, as a 

 Roofing and Covering to sides of Farm Buildings; its advan- 

 tages are— Liphtness, Durability, and Economy. Being a non- 

 conductor, it has been proved an efficient Protective Material 

 to Plants, and is now in use at the Royal Horticultural 

 Society's Gardens, Chiswick. It can be had of any length, 

 32 inches wide, at Id. per foot, super. A discount to the trade.

TO LANDOWNERS, AGRICULTURISTS, bUiU >, &c 



McKIBBIN'S Improved ROOFING FELT is 

 peculiarly applicable as a substitute for Slate, Zinc, 

 Tiles, and other articles used for Roofinp:, from its L >NOMY, 

 LIGHTNESS, and DURABILITY. 



The disadvantages attending- other materials used m roofing, 

 preventing, to a great extent, many n-eful houses and sheds 

 being erected or rendered waterproof, it is submitted that 

 the improved Roofing Felt will in a great measure— and in some 

 instances altogether — obviate them, and prove most service- 

 able from its lightness, durability, and impermeability to water 

 and damp, in covering- Houses, Cattle-sheds, Workshops, Rope- 

 walks, &c, and for the sides, as well as roofs, of lipht struc- 

 tures for plants, being likewise a non-conductor of heat; be- 

 sides its economy in repairs, the timber where it is used may 

 be so light as t ave its whole expense; it requires no other 

 coping, and may be applied by any person of common inge- 

 nuity ; being flexible and portable also, it is free from breakaee, 

 the expense of carriage is inconsiderable in comparison wi^.h 

 slates, tiles, ttc, and it is not liable to contraction like zinc. 



Sold in sheets 32 inches by 20, at 54. each (being less than 

 Qs.6d. per square of 100 feet), with printed directions for appl; 

 ing them, same as adopted at the Government Dock-yards and 

 various other public buildines. 



Orders will meet with prompt attention if addressed to H. C. 

 Bowdkv, 18, East India Chambers, Leaden hall -street, London, 

 or to the following agents: — Liverpool, Messrs. Grueber & Co., 

 1 1, Manesty-lane ; Plymouth, Thomas Stevens, Esq. ; B;

*»* The "Improved Roofing Fki.t" will be found mue 

 more durable than the Common Felt made in lengths and not 

 subject, like it or coi.tmuous sheets of other material, ro be 

 stripped by storm , it can also be more eas.ly repaired, and 

 from thesimple mode of application recommended, the wet can- 

 not percolate through nail-holes, being only fastened down at 

 the overlaps.
