BEAUMONT, TEX. 



In a recent number of The Eeview we 

 noticed that Wolfe, of Waco, is written 

 up as being pretty close to the center of 

 Texas. Now, although we feel a loyal 

 pride in our fellow Texan's success, we 

 see no reason why the southeast corner 

 of that same big state should longer 

 defer its bow to the floral world in 

 print. The Beaumont Floral Co. is just 5 

 years old today, and we are preparing to 

 move from the unpretentious little 

 adobe and stucco shop that has sheltered 

 us during our infant years, into a per- 

 fectly equipped office in a modern hotel 

 now under construction. We have re- 

 cently bought the acre of improved town 

 property which we formerly leased for 

 our greenhouses, have 7,500 feet of 

 glass, grew and disposed of 20,000 choice 

 mums last year, have a fair output of 

 carnations and all the bulbous and small 

 stock we use. Our greenhouses nestle 

 close to the famous Spindle-Top Hill, 

 whose gushers still spout fortunes as 

 well as oil; to the low-lying rice fields 

 growing into wealth for their pro- 

 moters; to the wonderful timber belt 

 that keeps the sawmills of Texas and 

 southern Louisiana buzzing to the tune 

 of millions a year. And, although our 

 part in this great activity may be small, 

 not the least of it to us is that the out- 

 put of our little industry adds a keener 

 note to joy and softens sorrow in the 

 midst of it all. Miss Browne and my- 

 self, who are sole owners, engaged in 

 the business with no previous experience 

 and a capital that still makes us blush 

 to remember. And, although speaking 

 from a corner and not the hub, we 

 wouldn 't sell today for as many dollars 

 as there are inhabitants in Beaumont, 

 and they number 25,000. I cannot close 

 without acknowledging the inconceiva- 

 ble value of The Review and the im- 

 mense help it has been and still is to us.

Fond du Lac, Wis. — The Haentze Co. 

 has a souvenir post card showing its 

 patch of White Lady gladioli. In the 

 field beside the greenhouse at the time 

 the picture was made there were 75,000 

 bulbs and bulblets. 



Detroit, Mich.— Henry Vanhonse- 

 brouck, at one time foreman at Charles 

 Abraham's nursery, in San Francisco, 

 Cal., and' later with the Alameda Floral 

 Co., in Alameda, Cal., has purchased 

 some ground here, with the intention of 

 starting in J»usiness on his own account. 

 He has just returned from a trip to 

 Belgium.
