The supply of lump and egg still is less than the demand and the prices are ; PIPING FOE HOTBED BANQE. I intend to build a hotbed range 100 foet long, using 4x6 sashes. Kindly tell me how many 2-inch flow pipes, for hot water, will be needed to keep the range at a temperature of 40 to 45 degrees in zero weather. The location is eastern Missouri. G. F, D. In case the house lias no glass in the side walls and has but one row of sashes on each side of the ridge, it can be heated by means of one 2^-inch over- head flow and four 2-inch returns. If it is desired to use 2-inch pipes for the flows, two should be put in, each of which should be connected with two re- turns. USING ONLY 2-INOH PIPE. rieaso let me know what length of rafters should be used on a greenhouse twenty-two feet wide, inside measure- ment. Also tell me how many lines of 2-inch pipe will be needed to"^ heat the house to 50 degrees in this Chicago cli- mate. The house is 22x50, with 4-foot concrete walls and two feet of glass on top of the concrete. J. M. P. While the length of the rafters will depend somewhat upon the desired height of the house and the use to which it is to be put, it will be about right to make them thirteen feet long. To heat the house described to 50 de- grees will require about 400 square leet of radiating surface. I would ad- vise running one flow pipe a foot or two below the ridge, connecting it at the farther end of the house with five 2-inch return pipes distributed under the benches. Then run a flow pipe on each wall plate and connect each of the flow pipes with four returns. Give the flow pipes a slight fall and con- nect the highest point of each with The expansion tank. CANNOT GET SUFFICIENT HEAT. Please give mc some advice on how to pipe my greenliouses so as to main- tain a temperature of 60 degrees in the daytime and 48 to 5
