The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



AUOURT 4, 1004. 



CADILLAC, MICH. '^ » 



The name of Cadillac is becoming fa- 

 mous, but in other lines besides the flor- 

 ists' business. It is only a few years ago 

 that we were considered "up in the 

 pine woods," but with the passing of 

 the pine there has been left a thriving 

 city of 7,000 inhabitants, bordering the 

 banks of a beautiful lake. The problem 

 of utilizing the pine lands will undoubt- 

 edly be solved in time by the establish- 

 ment of an experimental station by Solon 

 Lu Goode. Four forties are being 

 stumped, and experimental work will be 

 commenced next spring to ascertain just 

 what the soil needs to make it useful for 

 all kinds of crops. Potatoes will grow 

 there, and many a farmer has paid for 

 his farm with one crop of potatoes. Not 

 only is agriculture to receive a new im- 

 petus, but up-to-date greenhouses and 

 up-to-date methods are sure to prevail 

 in this hitherto benighted region. Ac- 

 cording to the Chinaman, carnations are 

 to be grown four to six inches in size 

 and roses like saucers. The grocer and 

 baker and candlestick maker have par- 

 taken of the inspiration and plants and 

 flowers could be obtained from Tom, 

 Dick and Harry this spring, each willing 

 and anxious to share the florists' burden 

 of riches. 



Notwithstanding the jolts and jars, A. 

 W. Tweedie reports a good business and 

 plants sold out clean. He is hard at 

 work planning for a larger trade next 

 year. ( 



Kleinhans & Mason, the new flrm, are 

 busy putting up their houses and have 

 the frames up for three, with glass in one 

 of them. They have completed a neat 

 residence and Mr. Kleinhans and family 

 are installed therein. They have 2,000 

 carnations in the field and are getting 

 ready to share in the city 's prosperity. 



This has been a good growing season 

 and plants of^ all kinds are in excellent 

 condition, considering the late spring, 

 the flower beds at the cemetery being 

 especially attractive. 



This city narrowly escaped a severe 

 hailstorm recently. It is a noticeable 

 fact that we have not been visited by 

 any serious storms for nearly two years.

Clifton, Pa. — Hoffman Brothers, of 

 Lansdowne Heights, have purchased the 

 large greenhouses of J. Hackert, located 

 at Sixty-second and Buist avenue, in the

 the business.
