roof as in the older house. These were 

 the principal changes. Both houses are 

 models of strength in their construc- 

 tion, as well as in their cement walls 

 and cement beds. 



The removal of the roses from Wyn- 

 «ote leaves room for expansion in palms 

 and in orchids. It is to the credit of 

 the Joseph Heacock Co. that this ex- 

 pansion is needed; the quality of their 

 stock has encouraged steady increase in 

 production. The orchids have passed 

 the experimental and reached the staple 

 stage. Carnations are grown as a side 

 issue; they have been planted on the 

 new farm at Eoelofs, where they did 

 well. The carnation plants have just 

 been lifted and planted in the houses.
