North Wales (Pa.) Has
The Biggest Greenhouse
The Florex Gardens contains 100000
Square Feet Under Glass.

Passengers on railroad trains pass
ing North Wales are familiar with
the immense spread of glass which is
used in the worlds largest greenhouse,
but not many realize that the distinc-
ton of having the largest conserva-
tory is possessed by the Philadelphia
territory.

greenhouse of the Florex Gardens, the
Organization that won the largest
prize of the recent exhibition of the
members of the American Rose So

AT a quick glance, says the Philadel-
phia North American, its shimmering
sides almost look like water at dis
lance.
The large greenhouse of the Florex
Gardens is 200 feet long by 172 wide.
1t is constructed of steel, much after
the manner Of bridge. Its frame is
built to stand tremendous pressure,
and for many years, until snow re-
ta;ncrs solved the problem, it was
constantly menaced in the winter time
by heavy falls OF snow.
The F1orex Gardens plant has AGO.,
900 square feet under glass, and turns
out $1,000 900 roses a year. The steam
plant includes 28A miles of steam
pipe. and to water the flowers under
the glass, when that becomes neces-
sary, takes more than 100000 gallons.

Plague of Crows Do
Heavy Damage to Farm
Crops in Kansas State
Counties Resort to Bounty Payments
In Effort to Rid State of the
Destructive Pests.

The Hessian fly and chinch bug,
the grasshoppers and the little green
bugs have ruined many field of grain
in Kansas, but during the present au-
tumn and winter the common crow
has been doing an untold amount OF
damage.
Nearly every county in the state is
paying ten cents each for crow heads
and will pay five cents each Tor crow
eggs next spring. The crow seems to
operate in Kansas in cycles
For 20 years the birds were not a
serious menace to the crops. In the
late nineties the first crow bounty
was established and maintained Tor
some years. Then the crows virtually
disappeared.
This year, however, they have been
particularly numerous and most dam
aging, and all county farm bureaus
and farm organizations have insisted
upon the counties restoring the boun-
ty.
Recently Mark Lowe, farmer,
walked into the office of the county
clerk of Neosho county, and put down
$50 crow heads and collected $500.
Lowe explained that he got the $50
crows in two shots.
The crows were roosting in two
trees on his farm During the day he
placed a stick of dynamite under each
tree and when the birds had gone to
roost exploded the dynamite. Many
of the birds were killed, but Others
were only stunned and were picked
up and killed by Lowe and several
others
