EDWAEDSVILLE, ILL. 



Eeferring to the item in The Review 

 of February 23 regarding the business 

 change contemplated by J. F. Ammann, 

 it is stated that Mr. Ammann is ar- 

 ranging to turn his greenhouse plant 

 over to three of his old employees, J. H. 

 Buchsenschutz, Edward Buchsenschutz 

 and Le Eoy Smith, who expect in the 

 near future to incorporate what will 

 be known as the J. F. Ammann Go. 

 The first named has been in the em- 

 ploy of Mr. Ammann for sixteen years, 

 the last ten of which he has had en- 

 tire charge of the greenhouses, as fore- 

 man. Le Eoy Smith has had charge of 

 the rose section and has also been with 

 Mr. Ammann for over ten years. Edw. 

 Buchsenschutz has spent eight years on 

 the place and during the latter part 

 has had charge of the carnations. The 

 company will be incorporated for $6,- 

 000, stock fully paid up, and will take 

 over all the stock and equipment about 

 July 1, and in time purchase the entire 

 plant, including greenhouses and five 

 acres of land, on which it will hold an 

 option for the present. Mr. Ammann 

 expects to hold a few shares of stock 

 in the new company for a while, in 

 order to get the boys well started and 

 also to be somewhat in touch with the 

 business he has spent the greater part 

 of his life in. The active management 

 will be in charge of J. H. Buchsen 

 schutz. 



Mr. Ammann has been connected 

 with the florists' business for over 

 twenty-five years, and the present plant 

 was established twenty years ago with 

 3,000 feet of small sash houses. This 

 has been rebuilt three times, until now 

 it consists of 40,000 feet of modern 

 glass. Mr. Ammann will continue to 

 make Edwardsville his home and de- 

 vote most of his time to his retail 

 stores at Alton and East St. Louis, pur- 

 chasing stock for these from the home 

 plant. The young men will make 

 wholesale growing a specialty. 



Lowell, Mass.— H. .T. F. De Thestrup, 

 formerly foreman for A. M. Davenport, 

 at Watertown, Mass., is now grower 

 and manager for Frank P. Putnam, the 

 carnation specialist of this city.
