View of Our Fish Hatchery 
Located 12 miles west of St. Louis on a 40- 
acre tract of land. Our facilities for the propa- 
gation of fancy fish and water lilies are second 
to none. Concrete vats 100 feet long are 
housed in these buildings for breeding tropical 
fishes. Over ninety large concrete tanks outdoors 
are stocked with all kinds of water lilies and 
plants ready for immediate shipping. 
When breeding tropical fishes they should not 
be disturbed. We have found visitors at the 
hatchery quite a problem to disturb breeding 
fish and do not allow visitors on the hatchery 
grounds. All varieties of fancy fish can be seen 
at our building on Crescent Avenue, where 
everybody is welcome. 


Visitors Welcome 
View of Our Lily Ponds 
Hardy water lilies and many other aquatics 
are propagated on a 52-acre tract about 69 
miles west of St. Louis. The photograph shows 
the “Sunshine Water Lilies’’ in a natural set- 
ting. The Lotus bed can be seen in the back- 
ground near the shore line. 
We have here about 25 acres under water, 
where we grow nothing but hardy plants and 
lilies. These ponds are used only as a source of 
propagating for shipping stock. No office is 
maintained on the grounds and they are not 
accessible to visitors. 
Our location is 6200 West and 2100 
North. 
Drive to 6200 Easton Ave. and go
