BOILER BUILDING. 



A boiler shop is a very prosaic as well 

 as noisy place but often much of interest 

 is to be found in unfrequented surround- 

 ings. Many a florist comes to Chicago 

 to see the stock produced in the great 

 ranges o^ glass and often visitors make 

 a critical inspection of the boilers in 

 use. but when ready for a heater a mail 

 order will do; they seldom think of vis- 

 iting the place where the boiler is made, 

 although there are many things worth 

 seeing there. 



The works of the Kroeschell Bros. Co. 

 occupy a half a block in Chicago, the 

 floor space in the shop being 100x33(3 

 feet. They make high power steam boil- 

 ers as well as greenhouse boilers, but the 

 extent of their business in the latter de- 

 partment is well shown by the fact that 

 there are now lined up on the floor more 

 than forty greenhouse boilers, completeil 

 and ready for shipment when the men 

 who have ordered them say the word. 

 This practice of booking orders early 

 in the year, building the boiler at once 

 and holding it until wanted has been fol- 

 lowed for several years, as deliveries are 

 practically all wanted at once and it is 

 impossible to manufacture a whole sea- 

 son 's output in a few weeks. 



As to acceptances of boilers ordered 

 long in advance, Mr. Wm. Kroeschell 

 says that in their long experience they 

 have had but two cases where a florist 

 did not carry out his promise. He thinks 

 the florist's" promise is as good as his 

 bond. Mr. Kroeschell attends the S. A. 

 F. and Carnation Society conventions 

 and is heartily in sympathy with their 

 work and proud of his membership. He 

 may be expected to give some substan- 

 tial" evidence of his sincerity when the 

 Carnation Society meets in Chicago next 

 year. 



Fitzgerald. Ga.— Joel Thomas reports 

 the season's business as fairly good, 

 although trade on cut flowers has been a 

 little slow. Fruit trees were in heavy 

 bloom early in March. 



Bristol, Vt.— L. M. Gage says that 

 the prospect for a good spring business 

 is very encouraging.
