Mr.. johnson owns 100 by 200 feet
of ground upon which he has lived
for the last twelve years and as he
is much interested in horticulture
and agriculture he has made his
place one of the most attractive and
beautiful in that somewhat restricted
district. His home is just across the
street from the beautiful home OF
Lieutenant Governor Frankson who
is regular floral customer of Mr..
Johnson. Mr. Johnson has only a
very small dwelling but he has, him.
self, put in the concrete foundation
for large house which will shortly
be erected. He has large portion
of his ground covered with Towering
plants and has graveled walks
bordered with large boulders making
a very pleasing effect, He also has
large garden filled with vegetables
of all sorts. Mr.. Johnson as the say
ing goes, 'is living at home and
boarding at the same place." His
beautiful place is "a monument to
what one can do with will and work.
1t would be we'll if his good example
should be followed by many others.
