blocked the store at busy seasons. In 

 this emergency, the Michell place at 

 Andalusia was planned. It had other 

 features — the development of the pereri- 

 nial, advertising value and so forth. 



To put the producing end of the busi- 

 ness on its own merits, the place at 

 Andalusia was run separately from thf 

 store. It is owned and operated by 

 Henry F. Michell and Fred J. Michell, 

 and what it produces is sold to the 

 Henry F. Michell Co. Of course, this is 

 merely a matter of bookkeeping that is 

 given here only to show that the place 

 must be self-supporting. It is doubtful 

 whether either of the brothers knew 

 exactly what Andalusia would do; cer-

tainly the street did not. For instance, 

 the street expected that great quanti- 

 ties of vegetables would be grown there, 

 tomatoes, eggplants and so forth. Yet 

 today there are practically no vegeta- 

 bles on the place and Mr. Eichester as- 

 sures me that they play no part in the 

 production. 



Do you want to know just what is 

 going on at Andalusia! It is extreme- 

 ly interesting, and I will try briefly to 

 give you an idea of it. There are a 

 dozen greenhouses, connected by a long 



corridor house through the middle, that 

 are filled with pot plants. Most of 

 these plants are of the soft-wooded bed- 

 ding type — geraniums, including Helen 

 Michell, salvias, coleus, heliotropes, etc. 

 Then there are great quantities of roses, 

 cannas, dahlias, cyclamens and hardy 

 chrysanthemums. A large motor truck 

 makes daily trips from Andalusia to 

 the store and then delivers plant orders 

 in outlying districts. A team takes 

 the express orders to the Torresdale 

 station.
