KALAMAZCX). MICH. 



G. Vau Bochove & Bro. have decided 

 to practically double their plant and have 

 .ilready begun to make arrangements for 

 doing 80. They have bought thirty acres 

 of land on the old Miller place, out 

 Portage street, near the city limits, and 

 intend to build there at once. The new 

 plant will consist of six or seven green- 

 houses, each 28x300 feet. They will 

 have a total of about 75,000 square feet 

 of glass. The greenhouses will be of the 

 best and most improved pattern, with 

 aU the latest improvements. All the 

 posts, gutters and fittings will be of 

 iron, and all the houses will be heated by 

 steam, A cement boiler room will be 

 constructed, with two boilers, each of 

 150 horse-power. Another boiler of the 

 same size may be put in later. All the 

 material will come from Chicago. The 

 new range will be devoted to American 

 Beauties, Brides and Maids. As fast 

 as possible the old plant will be removed 

 in the new location, thereby avoiding 

 trouble with high water. 



Garrett and John R. Van Bochove 

 began as florists in Kalamazoo about 

 twenty years ago. They had been in the 

 celery business before that. Their first 

 plant consisted of two small houses, with 

 not more than 5,000 feet of glass in the 

 two of them, and the brothers did all the 

 work. Now their houses have about 

 70,000 feet of glass, with eighteen men 

 employed regularly, and the plant and 

 force will be doubled in less than a year. 

 This will make the Van Bochove ])lant 

 one of the largest in Michigan.
