HOT-WATER APPARATUS FOR HEATING

 CHURCHES, and MAN T UFACTOK IKS, upon improved princi- 

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

 EDWARD BAILEY, ^72, HOLBORN. 



D. and E. IUi let 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 

 curability 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 Londen, 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. 



u * f nd £• Bailey were the first to introduce metallic curvili- 



£ttK° Use8 to hort fcuIturista, andean refer to the Conservatory 

 attached to the Pantheon as one of their works, besides mai 

 wners in this country and on the Continent. 

 Pla f E S d E " Bai.lky have prepared a quantity of the Galvanic 

 thp K J rotector s. which are now ready for immediate delivery;

to£r i ecms 0r other Houses where ™r is constantly, or at 

 intervals required, and which may be seen at their Manufactory. 



HOTHOUSES, CONSERVATORIES, &c., made 



upon the most improved principle, either of iron or of iron and 

 wood combined, which can be fixed complete in any part of the 

 Kingdom, at very low prices. 



HOT-WATER APPARATUS for heating Hothouses, 



Conservatories, and Greenhouses; Churches, Public or Private 

 Buildings, &c, with Cottam's Patknt or Roc.KrtsVs Boilbk 

 After 15 years' experience, and having fixed upwards of 2000 

 Apparatus for the above-mentioned purposes, and by various 

 improvements which they have made during that time, C. and 

 H. can with confidence undertake the erection of similar Appa- 

 ratus upon the most extensive scale. 



Materials may be had for those who wish to fix their own 

 Apparatus.

 and Manufacturers of the Improved CONICAL and DOUBLE 

 CYLINDRICAL BOILERS, respectfully solicit the attention of 

 scientific Horticulturists to their much approved method of 

 applying the Tank system to Pineries, Propagating Houses, &c. 

 by which atmospheric heat as well as bottom-heat is secured 

 to any required degree without the aid of pipes or flues. 

 S. & Co. have also to state that at the request of numerous 

 friends they are now making their Boilers of Iron as well as 

 Copper, by which the cost is reduced. These Boilers, which are 

 now so well known, scarcely require description, but to those 

 who have not seen them in operation, prospectuses will be for- 

 warded as well as reference of the highest authority ; or they 

 may be seen at most of the Nobility's scats and priucipal 

 Nurseries throughout the kingdom. 



S. & Co. beg to inform the Trade that at their Manufactory in 

 New Park-st., every article required for the construction of 

 Horticultural Buildings, as well as for heating them, may be

 manure. They are applicable to all sorts of field and garden 

 crops. No. 1 for heavy top growth, as Corn, Hops, &c. No. 2 

 is for all roots, and a sure preventive of the Fly in Turnips.

 flavour of fruits and vegetables, and the colours, and perfecting

 Durability, at. (1 Lightness. It is quite impervious to wet and 

 damp, resists the heat of the sun, and is a non-conductor of 

 heat or cold. Besides the economy in repairs, the timber where 

 it is used may be so light as to save its whole expense, it 

 requires no other copinp. and hy attention to printed directions 

 may be applied by a common labourer. It is free from break- 

 age and cuntr on, like zinc, and requires neither painting 

 nor coating. It is now in very general use for Roofiuc Houses, 

 Verandahs, Sheds, Workshops, Ro^ewalks, Railway Station*,
