The Florists' Review 



Deckmbeb 12, 1918. 



Greenhouse Heating 



SuBSORiBiRs are invited to write the 

 Editor of this Department with regard to 

 any detaila of greenhouse heating that 

 are not onderstMd. But please do not 

 aak The Beview to make a choice of ap- 

 paratus for yon. The greenhouse heating 

 equipment advertised m this paper is, we 

 believe, the best for the trade to buy, and 

 each artiele the best in the special field 

 of its adaptation. 



ALL FXTEL RESTRICTIONS OFF. 

 I 



Florists Not Limited. 



The United States Fuel Administra- 

 tion has canceled its order restricting 

 the use of coal and other fuel by florists 

 and, from the date of the cancellation, 

 December 2, florists are permitted to 

 purchase as much coal as they desire. 

 While the order was signed Novem- 

 ber 30, there seems to have been some 

 delay in formally promulgating it. 



The order sets forth that "pursuant 

 to the announced policy of the United 

 States Fuel Administration, of its inten- 

 tion to remove restrictions on the con- 

 sumption of fuel as speedily as condi- 

 tions may warrant, Fuel Administrator 

 Garfield has signed orders lifting abso- 

 lutely all restrictions, laid under pre- 

 vious curtailment orders, upon florists, 

 window glass, clay products and cement 

 manufacturers. 



Fuel Abundant Now. 



"Under the original orders florists 

 were compelled to reduce their use of 

 fuel to fifty per cent, beginning April 

 1, last, although subsequently modifica- 

 tions allowed them to use wood in excess 

 of that amount under conditions ap- 

 proved by the Fuel Administration." 



There were other local and temporary 

 modifications of the original order which 

 permitted the use of such grades of fuel 

 as were in surplus. 



The reports which reach the Fuel Ad- 

 ministration show that there is an am- 

 ple supply of coal on hand at the mines, 

 and if there is a shortage anywhere it is 

 due to transportation conditions.

INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Indianapolis has received an awaken- 

 ing! This always has been a low-priced 

 market and even though prices in every 

 commodity and luxury have been soar- 

 ing higher and higher, flower prices 

 have remained practically the same. 

 It took a famine in flowers to bring 

 about results. With but few flowers 

 to sell, the tradesmen had to raise prices 

 in order to get by, and behold, they 

 are now in at least as good demand 

 as before! Which goes to prove that 

 it has been the florists' own fault that 

 he has not been getting good prices 

 all along. Carnations are retailing at 

 $2 per dozen and go like hot cakes. 

 Enough cannot be procured. Other 

 prices are in accordance. Since it is the 

 fault of the tradesmen if the prices 

 ever go down again, let us pull together 

 to keep them up and make flowers a 

 luxury to be appreciated. 



Flowers in this locality are extremely 

 scarce and by no means equal to the 

 demand. Boses are making from $5 to 

 $30 per hundred, the former being a

TO THE MAN WHO NEEDS A BOILER 



THE CUSTOMERS' INTEREST FIRST -Is the basis of the Kroeschell standard, 

 and this principle makes the Kroeschell policy the most liberal of all in the greenhouse 

 boiler business. 



The great variety of boilers that we make places us in a commandins position. We make 

 every type of boiler that is used, from the smallest house heater to the largest water 

 tube steam boiler (600 horsepower). For the above reason we can furnish the most 

 efficient boiler unit in every case. 



It is the Kroeschell policy to supply only that type of boiler which is best suited to the 

 conditions, and under no circumstances do we take any other stand.

 we thought it could not do in thelway of saving labor and fuel. 



We have no trouble in heating the houses with this boiler, and we find that it sure 

 will hold heatlmuch longer than the old boiler. 



We are well pleased with the shaking grates as they save time, work, and much coal
