At our two Establishments horticultural science is fully carried 



out in all its branches. 

 The accompanying 

 sketch represents our 

 Improved Boiler. These 

 Boilers are very power- 

 ful, durable, and econo- 

 mical. The whole of our 

 extensive nursery estab- 

 lishment is heated bf 

 one boiler, measuring 

 only 5 ft. by 3 ft. 6 in. 

 The Houses heated con- 

 sist of forcing-houses ci 

 various descriptions, 

 many of them are ox 

 wide and lofty dimen- 

 sions, in length 10C0 ft., 

 and exposing to the at- 

 mosphere upwards ox 

 16,000 superficial xees 

 of glass. During the late 

 severe winter it only 

 cost us 3s. per day tor 

 fuel, and we had more 

 than a sufficient com- 

 mand of heat. Any 

 numberofforcing-houses 



can be heated by -one oj 

 our Boilers, and anv part regulated at pleasure. Plans, Mode >
