I am enclosing a rough sketch of my proposed greenhouses, which I expect to build this season. The range will consist of three connected houses, each 25x120, running east and west. The height to the gutters will be eight, feet. House No. 1, the south house, will have a 3-foot concrete waU at the south side, with five feet of glass above 'the coti- crete. In this house I shall want a temperature of 60 degrees. In house No. 2, the next house to the north, the required temperature will be 55 de- grees. House No. 3 will need a tem- perature of 50 degrees. I shall use a steam gravity system, with l^^-inch returns. The outside temperature here sometimes drops as low as 18 degrees below zero. How many lines of 1%- inch pipes will be required in each house? F. R. G.—Kan. For the south house, 25x120, with five feet of glass in the south wall, for a temperature of 60 degrees when it is 15 to 18 degrees below zero outside, we would put in one 2%-inch overhead fiow pipe and twelve 1^-inch returns. If raised beds are used, we would place two returns under each of the benches and the remainder of the returns on the walls. For house No. 2 one flow and ten returns should be used, and in house No. 3 we would put in one flow and eight returns, for 50 deg
