CENTRAL, MO. 



The writer, in company with "Walter 

 Weber, of St. Louis, went out to see an 

 old friend, John Steidle, and his modern 

 place at Central, and found the carna- 

 tions in unexcelled condition. Mr. Stei- 

 dl5 has made a specialty of the divine 

 flower for a number of years and cer- 

 tainly has made a great success of it. 

 This is his first year with roses and they 

 have done wellj there was only a bench 

 of Brides that was a little off in health, 

 but fast recuperating. He has cut a 

 great many fine blooms during the sea- 

 son. He grows exclusively for Fred C. 

 Weber. 



Next we visited Mr. Steidle 's neighbor, 

 A. Jablonsky. Here, also, we found 

 carnations looking well, full of blooms 

 and buds. Eoses have not done so well 

 as Mr. Jablonsky could wish, but, like 

 all good growers, he has his back up and 

 says he will make the queen of flowers 

 come to time next season. 



From there Mr. Steidle drove us over 

 to J. W. Dunf ord 's place. He also makes 

 a specialty of carnations. A big bench 

 or more of Lawson was fine. He grews 

 a great many Boston Market, a rather 

 small flower, but a wonderful producer, 

 as it was a regular sea of buds. Mr. 

 Dunford says that his wholesale trade 

 demands this variety. He has a great 

 lot of lilies. Some are very good, one 

 lot in particular; another lot was dis- 

 appointing. He grows a good many cal- 

 las, also bedding plants. He has 15,000 

 geraniums ready to pot up. 



Although the weather was wretched 

 the greater part of the day, how much 

 lighter all the houses looked in compari- 

 son with ours so near the city. Plants 

 have a different appearance within the 

 city's smoke. We were tired out with 

 our long ride, but felt amply repaid for 

 our visit. P. J. P. 



Enclosed find $1 for another year's 

 subscription to the Review, which so 

 long as I am in the business I will never 

 be without. — Louis H. Seaman, Danbury, 

 Conn. 



I COULD not get alone without the 

 Beview, as it puts us in tench with 

 those who want to buy, or with those 

 who have stock to sell. — J. H. Hutford, 

 Perrysburg, 0.
