The Weekly Florists' Review. 



JuLT 15, 1909. 



JACKSONVILLE, FLA. 



C. D. Mills has decided to incorporate 

 his business, and for that purpose he 

 has associated himself with C. L. Bragg, 

 C. Leslie Whipp and W. W. Key, all of 

 this city. The charter, it is said, will be 

 applied for August 9. The name of the 

 concern will continue to be Mills, the 

 Florist, and the main office of the com- 

 pany will be located at 36 West Forsyth 

 street. It is stated that, the authorized 

 capital stock of the corporation wUl be 

 $100,000, divided into 1,000 shares of 

 the par value of $100 each. 



Mr. Mills will be the president of 

 the company. In stating the reasons for 

 incorporating, he said that the present 

 business was rapidly getting too large 

 for one person to handle properly, and 

 after the new company was formed, it 

 was their intention to reach out for busi- 

 ness aJl over the state of Pforida, as well 

 as south Georgia. Mr. Mills has been 

 in the florists' business in this city for 

 the last fifteen years, starting with $500 

 capital and leased property. His busi- 

 ness Las grown rapidly, and besides the 

 main greenhouses, located on Eighth 

 street, near Main, there is a branch in 

 Eiverside, with salesrooms on Forsyth 

 street, where the office of the new con- 

 cern is to be located. In the various 

 greenhouses owned by Mr. Mills there is 

 a total of 30,000 feet of glass. 



The other officers of the new company 

 will be C. L. Bragg, vice-president, and 

 C. Leslie Whipp, secretary and treasurer. 

 Mr. Bragg will have charge of the out- 

 side work of the concern, looking after 

 the landscape gardening feature, and 

 otherwise having general supervision of 

 this department. Mr. Whipp will have 

 charge of the financial affairs of the con- 

 cern and the office work, Mr. Key, who 

 has been foreman of the greenhouses of 

 the present company for the last five 

 years, will hold the same position under 

 the new firm. He is an expert grower 

 of carnations and other hothouse prod- 

 ucts. Mr. Mills, with practically a life 

 of experience in the business, will have 

 general supervision over all the depart- 

 ments.

Godfrey Aschmann, the Araocaria King 



Is More Active than Ever 



Tour Houses Filled with the Best. With What? 

 Sure, with ARAUCARIAS, His Specialty 



Empty houses! That won't do. What shall I 

 plant? What is the most profitable? Listen to 

 what your neighbor florist has to sav. Mr. Mc- 

 tiinty to Oeorge Know Nothing: "I filled a rea- 

 sonable portion of my greenhouses last year 

 with Oodfrey Aschmann's Araucarias, and 1 tell 

 you straight out I was only sorry I did not buy 

 more. In two weeks, just when the demand was 

 the biggest, my stock was nearly exhausted. 

 This year I shall be smarter. Last week my order 

 to Aschmann called for just double the amount. 

 I never can lose anything on such an investment 

 as that. Every dollar put in Araucarias yields 

 three to four times the value while we're asleep."
