An 1ntclligenccr representative made
n trip out tho pike yesterday afternoon
and was shown by tho proprietor over
tho extensive Max l.. Hess greenhouses,
which nro located Just west OF Wheel

public Is somewhat acquainted through
his rcccnt connection with tho Wheeling
Park ssaf, wlere he was for " long time
the florist and landscape gardener.
During the last year he has been making
preparations for opening his own green
houses. He has accomplished wonders
In that time. II is doubtful whether
another such q bower OF beauty was ever
collected In 10 short q time. Usually 1t
Is tho work OF years To make even the
start, and that Mr.. Hess has accomplish
phsisa what ho has uonG In q twelve
month. Is due to the experience no had
while at the park.
Mr.. Hess has not yet named his bNau-
tttll place. and IL open TO suggestions.
Thoush ths I%ntelIigenccr Ia not author

make II worth The while OF anyone to
s,rgEeSt Il nRmo that will ut his floral
paradise. And In this connection 1t
should be remembered that n bunch of
flowers Is worth earning these bleak and
altogether untrupicRl November days.
Mr.. Hess greenhouses are arranged
In the usual manner. There are three,
each being 25x75 feet. and nt the end OF
the three are located the reception ROOM,
Office anu packing departments, while In
the basement Is located the steam heat
Ing furnace, an important adjunct OF
greenhouses. When the visitor ls shown
Into greenhouse No. l he Is nstounded 1
the magnificent showing that Is made.
Palms and all kinds OF decorating plants
are strewu on all sides. The palm dis

tered into the rose business. but before
the flowers OF spring ARE here again,
he will have M thai will compare
with any in the land. Only the rarese
and best roses will he grown.
The second greenhouse Is devoted to
bedding plants. and almost every plant
in the catalogue OF flowers Is seen here.
The display OF Eernniums In bloom Is
particularly attractive. No. ) greenhouse
IL devoted to carnations. one OF the most
popular OF flowers. The vlolets too. are
shown here. and Mr.. Hess is growing 4
violet that seems opossess n finer aroma
than any yet seen in this nelGhborhood.
Mr.. Hess will make 4 speciality OF
flower Vases and hanging baskets.
Much OF his time mex spring will be
given tn this work. At that dime. too, he
will extend his business to s%hrubbery
and trees OF all kinds.

Hess greenhouses, and the genial pro-
prietor extends n cordial invitation TO
the public to visit his place, which. with
out fattery. Is a credit both to himself
