Flokist : We have two connecting houses 30x150 feet and feet, respec- ively, with glass gables, 14 feet to the ridge, short span to the north. The south wall has ."O inches glass and two feet concrete; the north wall seven feet high, double boarded, lined with liuilding paper; the middle gutter on seven foot posts. The larger liovise is to be devoted to roses and the other to carnations. We intend to install a steam boiler having 40 .3-inch tubes using gravity system, and piping with l'/4-inch pipe so that it can be used as a hot water system in mild weather. The temperature outside is seldom be- low zero. Wliat would be the best ar- rangement of pipes? What size chim- ney will be necessary? Where should the boiler room be located? Will cheese cloth answer for the partition between houses? What is the best manner of getting the ashes out? Utah. O. N. L. If hot water is to be used for heating in mild weather it will be necessary to have the flow pipes of greater capac- than when used as a steam-heating While one 2%-inch flow would answer in the latter case it will be necessary to put in three for a com- bination system. In addition to the flows nine IH-inch returns will be needed in the rose house. For the car- nation house
