One of the most remarkably sue
cessful enterprises In this city are
the gardens of Chas. A. Moss, the
florist, No. 553 South Church street.
Mr.. Moss Is a native of Iowa where
he learned the flower business. Like
many others from the north and
northwest who have tested the ad-
vantages of Spartanburg, he Is pleas
ed. He began here on very modest
scale in the spring Of 1901, with $50
feet of glass. H. raised pot plants
for bedding mostly, but was success
full in selling them. He saw grow
ing demand for cut flowers and bent
his energies in this direction. He
Is a nina of indomitable energy and
pluck and hence has adder from
one to two hot houses to his plant
Spartanburg journal. [volume] (Spartanburg, S.C.) 1900-1906, 1906-09-06

every year since the first and is now
preparing Cne for chrysanthemums
exclusively. He has $3.50 feet Of
glass, all hot-water heated and mod
ern in all respects. His greenhouses
are conveniently located on the car
line and visitor who does not in
spect his gardens finds visit to
Spartanburg complete.
Mr.. Moss finds the demand for
cut flowers growing rapidly. This
year he has three times as many
carnations as ever before. RE also
has fruit trees. shade trees, orna-
mental hedges and shrubs and a
great variety of ornamental plants.
His establishment fills long-felt
want and in few years will equal

The Best Play in Some Time.

The presentation Of the funny comedy,
"Thc Player Maid at the opera house
last Monday evening by Florence Davis,
supported by Elliott Dexter and capa-
BILE company, was attended by very
large audience Of Greenwood people.
That the great crowd present enjoyed
the play immensely was evidenced by
the frequent eucores given Miss Davis.
AS an artist Miss Davis has but few
equas and last Monday evening she
seemed really to be at her best. The
interesting play is full OF fan, and the
members Of the company each acted
their respective parts splendidly. The

such pleasing attractions as "The Player
Maid" for their patrons.
