The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



May 10, 1906. 



TOLEDO, OHIO. 



Searles Bros., market gardeners, are 

 planning the erection of an addition to 

 their present greenhouse which will cost 

 between $75,000 and $100,000. The im- 

 provement will cover five acres and will 

 give Searles Bros, one of the largest 

 greenhouses in the middle west. When 

 the addition is joined to their present 

 building they will have eight acres un- 

 der glass. 



Searles Bros, make a specialty of 

 lettuce and nutmeg melons, the former 

 being produced entirely in the green- 

 houses and the latter getting the start 

 there and then transplanted to the open 

 air. Some years they produce as many 

 as forty acres of melons, being the larg- 

 est growers of these in this part of the 

 country. 



The new greenhouses will of course ne- 

 cessitate the erection of a new heating 

 plant. Several boilers are to be in- 

 stalled and a new stack 100 feet high is 

 to be built. The property adjoins the 

 Toledo & Indiana electric road and a 

 switch has been built into the plant to 

 supply coal for the boilers. 



Searles Bros, recently purciiased the 

 property adjoining theirs for $500 per 

 acre. This is the highest price ever 

 paid for land so far away from the cen- 

 ter of the city. 



John Meyer, who is engaged in the 

 same business as Searles Bros., and whose 

 property is located on Dorr street in the 

 same neighborhood, is also planning large 

 greenhouses, Mr. Meyer has heretofore 

 devoted his attention to outside garden- 

 ing, but is going into the greenhouse 

 business and will grow lettuce. His new 

 plant will cost over $25,000 and will be 

 completed this summer. 



Here is a dollar for the Review for 

 1906, the ideal paper for the trade. —

It Doesn't Matter 



how good your intentions may be. how good the people you get to do the job. 

 how good the materials used— if the plans are not right, the greenhouse is not 

 right. By plans we mean its economical arrangement— the right thing for the 

 right place. We are first of all plan makers— then manufacturers.
