QUERIES AND ANSWERS. 
TAPS TO PREVENT HOT WATER CIRCULATING. 
“ Will one tap on the flow-pipe be sufBcient, when closed, to 
prevent the circulation in a branch from it, or must there bo one 
in a corresponding position on the return-pipe ? It seems to me 
that one tap should do ; but Macintosh gives all his drawings 
with taps on both flow and return.”— A Country Subscriber. 
[When convenient we like to have both top and bottom taps; 
but practically it is not of much moment. If the return enters 
near the bottom of the boiler, and the flow is shut off, the heat 
from the bottom of the boiler may heat the return-pipe a little 
fora few feet. We find that there is nothing like circulation if 
the flow-pipe is shut off.] 
EMPLOYING OLD WINDOW-SASHES. 
“ I have five window-sashes each five feet high, and three feet 
wide. How can I make them available for the construction of 
a little greenhouse in my garden ? ”—An Old Subscriber. 
[Your sashes would make a nice pit or frame fifteen feet long, 
with a back wall of wood or brick, say three feet and a half, 
and the front eighteen inches, that would hold a great many 
things ; but you must move the sashes to get at them. The 
cheapest way to form a greenhouse in which you could walk, 
would be to have a back wall of wood or brick, about seven feet
