The Weekly Florists' Review. 



OCTOBER 25, 19»». 



SANDUSKY, OHIO. 



Business in this town has been very 

 fair for this time of the year, and the 

 weather for the last few we'eks has been 

 remarkable — bright, sunny days, just 

 the weather for roses and other stuff that 

 may be a little backward, besides being 

 economical on the coal pile. 



A visit to Clyde, O., a town a few 

 miles from here, which will soon be a 

 suburb of Sandusky, found the genial 

 Wm. E. Hall, of Little Pink geranium 

 fame, busy sending out orders for field 

 grown carnations, and, as he put it, 

 many thanks to a valuable advertising 

 medium, "which we all read," "etc., etc. 



Mr. Hall has som'e 15,000 carnations 

 benched, among them some seedlings of 

 his own raising, from which we expect 

 great things. He has in his Little Pink 

 geranium a good thing, and it should be 

 in every florist's collection. 



D. J. White, of this town, has com- 

 pleted a new house 10x60, his business 

 demanding the increase. 



Mrs. Matern held her annual chrysan- 

 themum show last week. There is noth- 

 ing to equal mums to open the season 

 with a vim. 



The Central Greenhouses are getting 

 in shape for business, D. J. Mackey hav- 

 ing made many improvements and addi- 

 tions to the houses and stock. 



There is some talk of forming a florists' 

 club here. There are some twenty-five 

 persons in and around Sandusky inter- 

 ested in the florists' business. It should 

 be a go. H. M. N. 



BELLEVILLE, ILL. 



The whereabouts of Charles Hartter, 

 the smooth confidence man, who, under 

 the pretense of establishing a $20,000 

 electric greenhouse plant on the Scbaef- 

 er land, two miles west of town, de- 

 frauded a number of Belleville business 

 men, is still unknown. 



It is now evident that his scheme was 

 to secure possession of the land and ma- 

 terial on payment of notes instead of 

 cash, then sell out for what he could get 

 and skip. The owner of the land insist- 

 ed on part cash and a mortgage for the 

 balance, which brought matters to a 

 crisis and no doubt saved others from 

 more serious loss. As he may bob up 

 with a similar scheme elsewhere florists 

 should be on the lookout for him and 

 warn possible victims. 



Iowa City. Ia.— C. W. A. Hill, the florist, form- 

 erly of Ckicago. was mortally iujured October 19 

 by tbe accidental discliarge of a gun. 



De Soto. Mo. — Mr. Art. Hippart is erecting a 

 gpcenliouse for commercial purposes and will 

 embark in the florist's business.

 Mr. Theron Parker. 



Brooklyn, N. Y. 

 Dear Sir:— Your Model Carna- 

 tion Support is all right in every 

 way. and will no doubt be con- 

 sidered as necessary as good 

 plants with growers when better 

 known. I consider it the best in 

 the market, and if your other 

 Specialties are as good, they 

 should make another addition to 

 the money makers of 1900. 

 Very respectfully, 



Albert M. Herr.
