GROWERS PREPARING FOR A BUSY SEASON. —WORK ON GREENHOUSES AND DWEL- LINGS.—NOTES. Gus. Drobisch is giving his place quite an overhauling, for most of his houses have stood the storms for twenty years. Mr. Drobisch has a method of his own for splicing the ends of the rotted bars and replacing the old gutters with new ones without removing much of the glass. It would justify any florist who has this work to do in visiting him to get this idea. As usual many novelties are found on the place and, judging from the num- ber of young roses being propagated, a large catalogue trade is expected for next fall and spring. Emil Metzmeier is building an addition to his dwelling and is erecting a new barn. His asters, like those of many others, were not of much value this sea- son, but he expects a good crop of chrys- anthemums, both pot plants and those planted out for cut flowers. John Hellenthal and family have returned from the east. He has a fine collection of cannas on his place, among which are a few very good seedlings of his own. Mr. Hellenthal thinks Crimson Bedder is one of the best in existence. Visitor: Paul Berkowitz, Philadelphia. Carl. Wellington, O.— has bought the A. B. Taylor greenhouse at Lodi and will remove it to his place here, where it will make a considerable addition to his facilities.
