EAU CIiAIRE, WIS. 



John Maves, proprietor of the West 

 Eau Claire Greenhouses, has purchased 

 the twelve acres and three greenhouses 

 on Twelfth street which belonged to the 

 late Wales H. Willard. Except for one 

 greenhouse, which will be combined 

 with a store and office on the present 

 Sixth avenue site, all the houses will be 

 moved to the newly acquired tract, 

 where a rose house, 28x100 feet, will be 

 added. The unoccupied land will be 

 used for growing bulbs and shrubbery. 

 Gladiolus bulbs, of which Mr. Maves 

 grew 16,000 this season, will be among 

 his specialties. Godfrey calla is another 

 bulb he will raise extensively. Ten 

 years ago Mr. Maves, who was a brick- 

 layer and plasterer, started a green- 

 house in a shack 12x20 feet, heated by 

 an oil stove. Next year he built a green- 

 house 22x30. Later he rented a tract 

 of land along the lake shore. To Mrs. 

 Maves he gives a great deal of credit 

 for his progress, for she attends to the 

 sales and makes up the design work, 

 and during the first four years, while he 

 made expenses by laying brick, she ran 

 the greenhouses in the summer as well. 



OEMXJLOEE, OKLA. 



After many years of service with the 

 Pittsburgh Cut Fldwer Co. and the Mc- 

 Callum Co., of Pittsburgh, Pa., George 

 W. Marshall has moved to Okmulgee, 

 Okla., where he opened a store October 

 23. He also operates a greenhouse range 

 containing 18,000 feet of glass and is 

 planning to erect ten additional houses, 

 40x100 feet. He grows a general line 

 of cut flowers, plants and vegetables. 

 Mr. Marshall is distributing blotters 

 carrying a young lady 's picture in colors 

 and a "Say It with Flowers" message, 

 "Flowers have a certain sentiment 

 about them that nothing else conveys."
