Death of W. E. Hearne. 



William E. Hearne died of tuberculo- 

 sis, at the home of W. E. Kemble, Tues- 

 day, August 11, 1903. 



Mr. Hearne had been ill for something 

 more than a year. He sought relief by 

 going to England and then California, 

 but all to no avail. He returned to Os- 

 caloosa this spring and was confined to 

 his bed soon after. 



Mr. Hearne was born in London, Feb- 

 ruary 11, 1848. He came to this coun- 

 try with his parents when about four- 

 teen years of age, residing with an uncle 

 in New York. He came to Oscaloosa in 

 1885, and made his home here. He was 

 an expert florist and was considered an 

 authority on subjects pertaining to the 

 work. 



The deceased was widely known and 

 was a prominent Mason as well as Elk. 

 The Masonic order conducted the serv- 



Deceased is survived by his wife here 

 and a sister living in London. 



Rantoul, III. — A 20-foot tower to 

 support a 60-barrel water tank is being 

 built on the Morris greenhouses. A hot 

 air pump was recently installed. 



Mason, Mich. — Jesse Beech is build- 

 ing an addition to his greenhouse on 

 Maple street.

BOSTON. 



Everything plentiful but carnations 

 and sweet peas, and no one seems to miss 

 these very much with so great an over- 

 stock of roses, gladioli, asters, etc. There 

 is some kind of a hitch in the red rose 

 situation. Large local growers of 

 American Beauties are out of them, but 

 smaller producers seem able to supply 

 the small demand. There are no good 

 ones. Small Liberty roses are plenti- 

 ful enough, but larger ones none too 

 much so. Probably the hospital man 

 at the market is as busy as anyone in 

 connection with the business. He took 

 time last Saturday to make an inven- 

 tory of the asters entering the finan- 

 cial race at the Columbus avenue trade 

 for that day. Forty-one thousand was 

 the total. They did not all race for 

 first money. Most of them ran for 

 any old thing they could see! 



"In time of peace prepare for war! " 

 Also in time of heat prepare for cold. 

 So it seems the flower market people 

 believe and are now installing a heat- 

 ing plant in their ware room under the 

 management of Iliffe, the veteran heat- 

 ist from Somerville. It is a business- 

 looking affair and advertises well for 



There is quite a bit of heavy repair- 

 ing going on among the florists and the 

 Waban Rose people claim the record on 

 putting up and planting a 700x40 house 

 of American Beauties, now just finished, 

 first rafter put up June 16 and roses 

 going in July 27. J. S. Mantek. 



The Review is the best florists' paper 

 for me.— C. H. Hayden, Dexter, Me.
