The Florists' Review 



OCTOBBB 15, 1914. 



EVANSVILIJB, IND. 



The Market. 



The market has been quite lively, 

 <lue to the October weddings and the 

 general opening of the social season. 

 Chrysanthemums are just coming into 

 bloom. Cosmos, dahlias, etc., are plen- 

 tiful, and the expected frosts will cre- 

 ate a better demand for indoor flowers. 

 The frosts are later in arriving than 

 for several years. 



Various Notes. 



Theodore Kuebler, of Santa Eosa 

 Fruit Farm, has commenced cutting 

 chrysanthemums. He looks for big 

 business in mum cuttings this season 

 and is better prepared than ever. 



Miss Elsa Niednagel, daughter of 

 Julius Niednagel, was married October 

 8 to John Land, of this city, and the 

 couple left for an eastern trip. Mr. 

 Land is engaged in the insurance busi- 

 ness and formerly lived at Carmi, 111. 

 The wedding was attended only by rela- 

 tives and familiar friends. Mums 

 formed the principal decoration. 



Mrs. Karl Zeidler is not recovering as 

 fast as was hoped. ' Her hand, due to 

 blood poisoning, is so badly affected 

 that it is doubtful whether it can be 

 saved. E. L. F. 



LEBANON, TENN. 



January 1, 1915, the name of the cor- 

 poration, the Lebanon Floral Co., will 

 be changed to the Anderson Floral Co., 

 W. H. Anderson being president and 

 J. C. Anderson secretary and treasurer. 

 A general line of cut flowers, bedding 

 and pot plants is grown for the local 

 retail trade, which is excellent. During 

 the summer a number of improvements 

 in the already up-to-date establishment 

 have been made. An additional supply 

 and reception room has been built to 

 the south of the main office and has 

 been fitted up with a handsome wall 

 case, easy chairs and divans, writing 

 tables, desk, and two telephone sys- 

 tems. Suspended from the ceiling are 

 handsome brass electric fixtures, so the 

 first impression of the place is a pleas- 

 ant one. Beneath this room has been 

 constructed the cold storage cellar, 

 made of concrete and having a tem- 

 perature 20 degrees lower than the 

 outside atmosphere. The old office will 

 be used as the make-up room in the fu- 

 ture. The greenhouses proper, occupy- 

 ing several acres of space, are heated 

 both by hot water and steam. The con- 

 oern has its own water plant and pumps 

 water at a pressure of ninety pounds. 

 W. A. Smith is the florist in charge.

Column Anchor Bases 



for our 

 Reconstructed Construction 



A LL COLUMNS in our 

 Reconstructed Construc- 

 tion are clamped at the 

 ground line to heavy four- 

 way braced anchor bases, 

 similar to the ones used on 

 the side posts. The bottom 

 of these bases is big and 

 broad, giving an unusually 

 large bearing surface for the 

 base to rest on, and around 

 which the concrete can grip. 

 The top of the base is equip- 

 ped with a split half, which 

 friction-grips the column 

 when the four galvanized 

 bolts are tightened. This 

 clamp permits an adjustment 

 up or down of the column, 

 which is a valuable feature 

 in lining up the rafters. 



In addition to the power- 

 ful friction grip of the clamp, 

 it is equipped with a cold 

 chilled pointed set screw. 



which bores right into the 

 pipe, doubly insuring it 

 against slipping. 



The rafter and post are in 

 one piece from the ground 

 line to the column cap, where 

 it is joined to the balance of 

 the rafter extending to the 

 ridge by a steel splice plate. 

 This plate also carries the 

 main member of the double 

 angle iron truss. 



The truss and rafter from 

 the column to the ridge are 

 all put together and hot- 

 riveted in place at the fac- 

 tory. This saves a lot of 

 work on the job and greatly 

 increases speed of erection. 



In our next ad we will tell 

 you about the special treat- 

 ment of the purlins and vent 

 header in the Reconstructed 

 Construction.
