Its ireedom of bloom coupled with its other meritorious qual- 

 ities will commend it to the most conservative growers. 

 You will make no mistake by growing FREO BURKI.

LOUISVILLE, KY. 



The Nana & Neuner establishment at 

 St. Mathews, Ky., is five miles from the 

 city on the Shelbyville Pike. It is well 

 worth to make a trip out to see 

 the larpe area of s^lass, consisting of 

 sixty greenhouses for plants and cut 

 flowers. I had the luck to meet the fore- 

 man, Theo. Strochaker, who showed me 

 through the different departments, and 

 found everything in fine tip top shape. 

 One house of white and pink bou- 

 vardia was very fine. One house 

 containing the old Marechal Niel 

 roses will yield a fine crop for 

 Christmas. Three houses were planted to 

 chrysanthemums, but were well cleaned 

 xip with the exception of some fine 

 Yanoma. Pour houses are in carnations. 

 The varieties grown are Joost, Enchant- 

 ress, Hill and Prosperity. One 228-foot 

 house is planted to American Beauties, 

 doing nicely. Mr. Eennison has charge 

 of this department. A bench of Golden 

 Gate is looking healthy and filled with 

 buds. One house contained a bench of 

 good old Perle des Jardins which were 

 in fine shape. The firm has gone to a 

 considerable expense this season remod- 

 eling the houses. All the latest im- 

 provements have been added. 



C. W. Eeimers' place, at Crescent 

 Hill, was visited and found the proprie- 

 tor not at home but I had the good luck 

 of receiving the glad, hand of the fore- 

 man, A. J. Koenig, who took me through 

 the different houses. The first four 

 houses, 115 feet long, were planted to 

 American Beauties. The growth is won- 

 derful; they can cut some with stems six 

 feet long. Their house of Gates is in 

 fine shape. One house containing two 

 benches, one of Bride and the other of 

 Bridesmaid, was a sight to look over; 

 nothiner but buds, and will yield a big 

 crop for Christmas. A bench of helio- 

 trope was also in fine shape for Christ- 

 mas. Three houses were planted to poin- 

 settias, fine foliage and very fine large 

 crowns, all ready for the holiday trade. 

 One house of carnations contained some 

 5,000 Lawsons, which were covered with 

 buds, healthy growth and long stems. His 

 Enchantress is hard to beat. I saw 

 some very fine blooms of Flamingo, also 

 some fine blooms of White Lawson could 

 be seen here. The pink chrysanthemum, 

 Dr. Enguehard, was very good. Violets 

 are grown here in large quantities.

Dixon, III. — Business has been very 

 good, some large funerals contributing 

 their share. O. L. Baird's place is in 

 fine shape. During the summer he raised 

 his stack, covered the boiler and made 

 the heating apparatus perfect.
