shivIer q Son, I'ropriotors

In a community where so much at
tention is paid TO the cultivation of
shade and fruit trees, and the grow
ing Of flowers, as in New Castle coun-
ty. the industry Of prOpagating them
is an important one In this connec-
tion Newark is particularly fortunate
in having such proficient eXponents of
the art of Horticulture as Messrs
Shivler and Son The greenhouses OF
the firm. located near the depot of the
Pennsylvania railroad are of ample
proportions and the plants grown are
selected with due regard for their
adaptabiity TO the soil and climate of
this section. In flowers, particular at
tentiOn is paid to roses, carnations and
violets, but all the other popular
plants are grown. including chrysan-
themums, dahlias, begOnias, gerani-
ums. colens, fuchsia and lilies.
In nursery stock, the apple, pear
cherry. plum and peach are leaders. A
fixed principle of the business is never
to misrepresent any tree or plant.
All kinds of bedding and vegetable
plants are grown.
The greenhouses were established
about 1885 by John c. Shivler. who
has the honor of being the father OF
the present beautiful floral gardens
that adorn the stations grounds, along
the line OF the Pennsylvania railroad
From a modest little flower garden
started at the old depot at Newark
IN 1868, which attracted the attention
OF the railroad officials, it has grown
to "a great feature until to-day over
10000 plants are used annually along
the line. between Philadelphia and
Baltimore.

dered it greatly in demand with the
electrical trade until the manufacture
of fibre to-day is conducted on a very
large basis. Many tons are sold an
nually to the electrical trade. and in
addition to this branch it is used for
many other mechanical purposes, re-
placing hard rubber. raw hide and

with which it can be worked. render
it especially desirable for mechan cal
uses and it has largely replaced metals
