The Florists' Review 



Apbil 16, 1914. 



A CHARTER has been issued to the Hol- 

 land-American Nursery Co., of East 

 Orange, N. J., with a capital stock of 

 $10,000. 



J. H. RosENGRENE, of Redland, Fla., 

 has bought a large tract of land at La- 

 belle, Fla., where he will start a nursery, 

 putting out 100,000 trees to start with. 



John Trout, an agent for the John 

 Siebenthaler Nurseries, at Dayton, O., 

 dropped dead at the nursery April 4 

 shortly after complaining of rheumatism. 

 He was 55 years old and lived at Midway, 

 Ohio. 



Michigan nurserymen find a heavy de- 

 mand for fruit trees and berry plants 

 this spring. It is thought the high 

 price of fruits has led many house- 

 owners with gmall pieces of ground to set 

 out their own berry patches. 



It is reported that C. C. Mayhew, 

 proprietor of the Texas Nursery Co., at 

 8hernian, Tex., is planning to establish 

 a nursery at Macon, Ga. He laid his 

 project before the mayor, city council and 

 some of the business men of the to\six at 

 a banquet April 1. 



J. P. NOLAND, of Peninsula, O., is 

 turning his attention more, to the grow- 

 ing of evergreens, as the climate and soil 

 of the region seem quite well adapted to 

 this line. The fruit crop was damaged 

 to a certain extent in his section by the 

 extremely cold weather in February. 



The lateness of the season has delayed 

 the spring shipments and the Earl Fer- 

 ris Nursery, of Hampton, la., is onp of 

 many that are working overtime to 

 keep up with orders. Earl Ferris, 

 manager, finds it diflRcult to keep to his 

 custom of shipping all orders the day 

 received. 



During the absence of A. H. Lake, 

 president of the Henry Lake Sons Co., of 

 Black River Falls, Wis., who has been in 

 the hospital since March 2, the business 

 has been successfully conducted by N, M. 

 Lake. The firm has the rare distinction 

 of being completely sold out of apple and 

 plum trees for this spring. 



Prompt action on the part of the fire 

 ilepartments prevented the fire which de- 

 stroyed a large shed of the company from 

 spreading to other buildings at the plant 

 of the American Nursery Co., at Spring- 

 field, N. J., formerly known as the F. & 

 F. Nurseries. William Flemer, manager 

 of the concern, gave checks of $50 to the 

 Springfield and Milburn fire departments 

 in recognition of their work. The work 

 of rebuilding is already started.
