J. J. HESS. 



John J. Hess is a native of Switzer- 

 land where he was born in 1863. He 

 came to America in 1884 and entered 

 the service of C. Rieman Company at 

 Indianapolis. In 1886 he went 1o 

 Omaha and after working for two 

 years for different firms, he went into 

 business for himself with George N. 

 Swoboda as a business partner. Mr. 

 Swoboda is in charge of the green- 

 house plant. Mr. Hess attends to the 

 store business and as general mana- 

 ger has proven his qualifications as a 

 sound and successful business man, in 

 building up the fine business of which 

 he is the head. Mr. Hess has been 

 president of the Omaha Florist Club 

 at different times, is an active member 

 of the Comjnercial Club and has 

 played a prominent part in many pro- 

 gressive undertakings in his home 

 city. He is very popular, a good work- 

 er and an earnest hustler in what- 

 ever' he undertakes. His standing in 

 the trade in that large section of the 

 country well enables him to stimulate. 

 create and advance the interest of 

 the S. A. F., and the trade in general. 



J. A. PETERSON. 



J. A. Peterson is so well known to 

 the florist trade of this country that 

 introduction is almost superfluous. 

 He Is a German by birth but has been 

 so long a leading business man in 

 Cincinnati that he seems an integral 

 part of the florist industry of that 

 thriving centre. He has a large range

 product of which has taken high hon- 

 ors at various exhibitions and where 

 originated the popular Begonia Glory 

 of Cincinnati. Mr. Peterson has al- 

 ways been a faithful and enthusias- 

 tic worker for the S. A. F. During 

 the convention at Cincinnati in 1909, 

 as president of the Cincinnati Floral 

 Society, he carried many responsibili- 

 ties and was a leading factor in the 

 success of that occasion and the 

 pleasure of the visitors. President 

 Wirth has selected in Mr. Peterson a 

 worthy incumbent for the honor of 

 directorship.
