The Florists' Review 



Makch 15, 1917. 



The'Bie Iron Frame Rose House 400 by 60 feet, with its Central Side Entrance for the ConncctinK Passage to Future Houses 



The Joe Hill Range 



A 



CROSS the way from the rose famed range of the E. G. Hill Floral Com- 

 pany, with "E. G.," America's Great Rosarian, still actively at its helm, 

 are the houses of his son. Joe Hill. 



The ridge and furrow carnation houses were originally part of the "E. G." 

 holdings. Last July they were bought by Joe Hill along with the Company's 

 Flower Shop in Cincinnati. Last year, two separate iron frame houses were 

 erected. A 25-foot one, mainly for propagating; and the big 60-footer, for roses. 



On my desk lies one of Mr. Hill's delightfully characteristic letters. Here 

 is a clause from it which you will abundantly appreciate: 



^^ Ophelia Herself. What a Pesral Mother of 

 a SurpassinKly Lovely Family She Has Been! 



Builders of Greenhouses and Conservatories 



The 25-foot House is Only Half as Long: as the 60-footer, but Arransred as You See for its Extension.
