THE NATIONAL NURSERYMAN. 
NICHOLSON FRUIT PLATE COMPANY. 
An action lias been commenced by Charles F. Nichol¬ 
son against the Nicholson Co. to wind up its affairs 
through a receivership on the ground that it is insolvent. 
A member of the company said: “The statement that 
the company is insolvent is false as a reference to our last 
annual report will show. The company has not been 
making any money since the hard times came, but that is 
nothing strange as many older concerns have been in the 
same plight. The company discontinued the employ¬ 
ment of Mr. Nicholson on salary and that is the cause of 
his dissatisfaction. Since then he has started a business 
in competition with that of the company of which he was 
the organizer, and that is another cause of the trouble out 
of which the litigation has arisen.” The business of the 
company is that of making fruit plates for nurserymen 
and Rochester is the center for this business in the whole 
country. The Nicholson Co. was organized with a 
paid up capital stock of $6,000 and the other members say 
that they furnished all the money and that Nicholson’s 
stock was issued for formulas and his experience.
