Visitors. 



Hans Tobler came down from 

 Traverse City, Mich., for the week end, 



expecting to meet here his brother, 

 Jacob Tobler, the Kansas City florist. 

 Hans, who has spent many years as a 

 private gardener, is looking for a place 

 he can buy to start in business, growing 

 and retailing. Readers of The Review 

 will recall that the Traverse City florist 

 and undertaker, Ralph Anderson, disap- 

 peared from a lake steamer last June 

 while returning home from a visit to 

 the Chicago market, where he was a 

 large buyer. Mr. Tobler says no word 

 of the missing man has been heard at 

 Traverse City, any more than here, and 

 that he has been given up for dead. 

 Mr. Tobler says the establishment of 

 the Traverse City Refrigerator Co. is 

 showing increased activity in the hands 

 of the Randall-Johnson interests.
