OTTUMWA, lA. 



C. Kranz, who has a store at 107 

 North Market street and about 45,000 

 square feet of glass along Sugar ■ creek, 

 two and a half miles east of the city, 

 now finds that the greenhouses, though 

 they occupy all the available ground at 

 the present location, are much too small 

 to supply the needed stock. He has there- 

 fore secured a larger tract of land at the 

 south side of the city, on Hamilton, Web- 

 ster and Wapello streets and Finley ave- 

 nue, and will at once build four green- 

 houses there, each 23x300 feet. He will 

 also remove the present greenhouses to 

 the new location, and the entire range, 

 when completed, will contain at least 70,- 

 000 square feet of glass. He is also 

 erecting an eight-room residence on the 

 new site. It is expected that the whole 

 establishment will be ready for operation 

 by October 1. 



Mr. Kranz came here eighteen years 

 ago, from Muscatine, la., where he, with 

 his father and brothers, had built, up a 

 large trade as florists. For a time after 

 coming here Mr. Kranz grew garden 

 produce, but the expansion of the flower 

 business caused him to give up the gar- 

 den truck and devote his attention en- 

 tirely to flowers. About one-third of the 

 output of his houses is shipped to points 

 outside of the city. x 



WAYSIDE NOTES. 



Percy Herbert, grower for the Yuess 

 Gardens Co., at Newburgh, N. Y., finds 

 the 'refuse from carboys makes excellent 

 shading. When mixed with water and 

 sprayed upon glass, an ordinary rain will 

 not wash it oflf. Frost makes it curl up,

avoiding the necessity for cleaning it off. 

 This firm's Easter stock was in fine 

 shape. Lilium giganteum was just right 

 and has jumped into front rank, sur- 

 passing Harrisii and Formosas. The 

 new stock. Sunrise, makes an excellent 

 pot plant; its brilliant rose color and 

 double flower are attractive. President 

 Cathcart reports store business away 

 ahead of previous years. 



The Schaefer Co., of Newburgh, an- 

 nounced an all-day reception for visitors 

 on Palm Sunday, and was well pleased 

 with the record-breaking attendance. 

 This firm had a capital lot of Easter 

 stock, which was going at good prices. 



George Crawshaw, of Newburgh, finds 

 funeral work in plenty at all times. 



The Newburgh Floral Co. has made a 

 big reputation in carnations and expects 

 to make large additions to its plant. The 

 new bench frame, patented by Dr. Wait, 

 will probably be extensively put to the 

 test at that time. 



Wood Bros., of Fishkill, N. Y., sup- 

 ply a large proportion of the single vio- 

 lets sold in the Hudson valley, being 

 both wholesalers and retailers. It keeps 

 them hustling to supply the demand.
