* . In- 1885 the firm of Drumm & Baker 

 Bros., of this city, was founded. In 

 1889 a division was made and the firm 

 of Baker Bros, was formed, composed 

 of William Baker and James B. Baker. 

 The business started with a little heal 

 yard for fruit trees and two small 

 greenhouses. Today the capital and sur- 

 plus of the company is approximately 

 $100,000, counting nothing for the good 

 will and the value of the fact that it 

 is a going concern. 



Baker Bros. Co. was formed in 1907 

 after the death of William Baker, with 

 J. B. Baker as president and general 

 manager and W. J. Baker as secretary 

 and treasurer. The company makes a 

 specialty of growing ornamentals and 

 of landscape work. It also has green- 

 houses of about 50,000 square feet of 

 glass, modern in equipment and up-to- 

 date in every respect. The uptown store 

 and oflBce are located at 1013 Houston 

 street. At the store are sold largely 

 cut flowers and seeds and it is the head- 

 quarters for over fifty agencies scat-
