CARL HAGENBURGER. 



CARL HAGENBURGER, of West Mentor, O., is the new president of the Cleve- 

 land Florists' Club. But before he was elected he had accomplislied a number 

 of things. He was born at Cleveland, January 25, 1874, attended the public school 

 until he was 13 years old, and then went to work for his father, who was then chief 

 gardener for tlie Lake Shore & Michigan Southern railroad. When he was 18, Mr. 

 Hagenburger struck out for himself. He worked in Brooklyn, Newport, R. I., and 

 on Long Island, and during the World's Fair at Chicago sold cut flowers at one of 

 the entrances. Before he established his range at West Mentor, he was employed 

 by the J. M. Gasser Co., Cleveland, at its range; the Cleveland Floral Co., as man- 

 ager of its range, and the Storrs & Harrison Co., at Painesvillc. In 1894, Mr. 

 Hagenburger began with two houses, 24x100, and now has 45,000 feet of glass, 

 which denotes the measure of his success. 



and entitled "Strawberry Growing." 

 As stated by tlie publishers, the two 

 books together afford "a complete sur- 

 vey of the strawberry as grown in 

 North America." Possibly some com- 

 mercial growers, of intensely practical 

 disposition, may be satisfied to possess 

 only tlie treatise on ** Strawberry Grow- 

 ing. ' ' Yet, many other growers — not 

 only the leisurely experimenters, but 

 hurried business men who have a whole- 

 some ambition to be thoroughly in- 

 formed on their special crop — will find 

 in this new book just the sort of en- 

 lightenment that they want. 



Even the most practical, matter-of- 

 fact readers of the book may be sur- 

 prised to discover how interesting and 

 helpful the early history of the straw- 

 berry is, when told as graphically as in 

 this book. They will see how the past 

 illuminates the present; how bygone 

 experiences explain modern practices; 



how mistakes, when detected, become 

 warnings and guides. Then, as the 

 readers turn the pages and approach 

 the middle of the book, they will notice 

 that they have left the liistory of the 

 past ami are learning about tlie meth- 

 ods and mysteries of the present— about 

 the training of the ])lants and the pack- 

 ing of the fruit; about pollination and 

 breeding. 



As already intimated, the book is ex- 

 ceptionally well written. In typog- 

 raphy and binding, also, it is true to 

 the high standard that has so long been 

 maintained by the publishers. 



For sale by The Review at the pub- 

 lishers' price. 



Black Rock, N. Y. — G. Basler was too 

 busy to take an extended vacation; re- 

 tailing at the greenhouses necessitates 

 keeping things inviting. This is dons 

 and good business is the result.
