The question of obtaining a satisfac- 
tory hose has long been prominent 
with greenhouse owners. The severe 
strain of constant dragging over the 
rough walks and around short, sharp 
turns soon renders the hose liable to 
kink, and userS in general conclude 
that a hose that lasts six months is 
doing fairly well. A hose is now on 
the market which its makers, the Min- 
eralized Rubber Co. of New York, 
claim comes nearer to perfection for 
greenhouse work than any offered 
heretofore, their aim being strength, 
lightness in weight, and durabilitj'. 
The first qualification was made by con- 
structing a hose that would stand any 
hydrant pressure, and the last by a 
peculiar method of manufacture. It 
is well known that the flow of water 
in a tube is governed by the interior 
diameter of the smellest part of that 
tube. As the couplings of ^-inch hose 
are only ^2 iuch in the interior the 
hose practically conveys the same 
amount of water as a k2-inch hose. 
Keeping this point in view, the manu- 
facturers constructed a ^-inch hose 
with ends enlarged to admit a }i-inch 
coupling, thus delivering as much water 
as a %-inch hose and with no back 
pressure. The Anchor Creenhouse 
Hose is guaranteed to stand any regu- 
lar hydrant pressure, and not to kink, 
and testimonials from users show that 
it has given two years’ constant service 
in greenhouse work. 
The Burnham, Hitchings, Pierson 
Company, who since the consolidation 
of the Lord & Burnham Co., Plitchings 
& Co. and the Pierson-Sefton Co., 
July 7, 1905, have been known as the 
largest greenhouse concern in the coun- 
try, has been dissolved. Lincoln H.
