HOT WATER WARMING APPARATUS. 
FOR GREEN HOUSES. 
The Subscribers have, at a large expense, perfected an ap¬ 
paratus for effectually Warming Green Houses, however 
large, in the severest weather, and with the most economical 
consumption of fuel. Fully aware of the difficulties which 
Florists and Horticulturists have experienced in their vain en¬ 
deavors to prevent their Plants from freezing on account of 
the imperfect modes of warming now much in use, we have ta¬ 
ken the trouble to give our apparatus a fair test during the 
past winter, (as the following testimonial will show,) and with 
the most satisfactory results. We shall be happy to send, by 
mail, estimates for putting up our apparatus, to all who will 
send us drawings showing ground plan of their Green Houses. 
CHAPIN, TREADWELL & CO. 
Springfield, Mass., May 24, 1856. 
We take pleasure in recommending, unqualifiedly to the 
public, the Warming Apparatus referred to above by Messrs. 
Chapin, Treadwell & Co. We consider it perfect for the 
purpose designed, and have warmed our Green Houses in this 
manner during the past severe winter, having no trouble in 
keeping the houses as warm as we desired, while the ther¬ 
mometer ranged from 15 to 24 degrees below zero outside, and 
the fuel consumed, has been less than that required anv previ¬
