WHERE PROSPERITY THRIVES. 



Idle Hour Nurseries of .Macon, Ga., 

 are having a violet house erected in 

 addition to a range of greenhouses 

 now about completed. These are all 

 built by the Foley Mfg. Co. of Chicago, 

 who hove also just completed green- 

 houses for the Agricultural College at 

 Urbana, Ills. Their superintendent is 

 now in South Dakota looking after the 

 erection of similar ones for the State 

 Experiment Station there, and their 

 work now includes greenhouses tor 

 experiment stations in Minnesota, Wis- 

 consin, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland, 

 Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, at 

 the Industrial school for boys at Glen- 

 wood, Ills, and Chicago University. 

 Mr. Foley is very reticent regarding 

 his own work and reluctantly gave the 

 above information. He sa\s they are 

 drifting into steel for frames and' con- 

 crete for walls.

NEW HEATING APPARATUS. 



John Walker, Youngstown, O., two 

 large boilers. 



Joseph Bock. Burlington, la., two 

 150 h. p. boilers. 



We learn from the Birmingham 

 (Via.) Herald that in Birmingham to 

 plant Carolina poplars is a criminal 

 offense, and may be punished by arrest 

 and a fine. The council at a recent 

 meeting passed the ordinance, which 

 sets the ban upon this kind of tree 

 planting. It is condemned "on ac- 

 t of the leaves which fall early 

 and never shrivel."
