I ha%'e two green- houses, 16x75 feet, 30 feet from my dwelling house. Would it be advisable to put the heater under the dwelling house and what size flow and return would be needed? How many runs of 2-inch pipe would be necessary to heat the greenhouses to 60° when the temperature outside is 20" below zero? My intention is to heat the dwelling also. Kansas. E. H. M. There would be no particular objection to placing the boiler in the cellar of the dwelling, if the top of the boiler will stand at least three feet below the low- est part of the returns in the greenhouse.

For the flow and return 4-inch pipes should be used. To maintain a temperature of 60° use twelve 2-inch pipes in each house, at least four of which should be flows. L. R. T. MiSHAWAKA, Ind.—J. L.
