H. M. SANDERS

     proprietor of Liberty Park green house, who came to Spokane in 1890, is a
native of England, born October 11, 1860. He grew to manhood in his fatherland,
acquiring his education in both public and private schools and later becoming
a florist. He came to Nova Scotia in 1882, from which province he soon moved to
Boston, Massachusetts, where he engaged at once in his former occupation. He
remained there about eight years, subsequently coming to Spokane, and he now has
one of the leading green houses of this state, containing ten thousand square
feet of glass in its walls. His business is large enough to give steady
employment to quite a number of men and is in a flourishing and prosperous
condition.  Mr. Sanders is a very skillful florist, having devoted many years to
that business exclusively and his experience seems to bear out the maxim that
"Concentration is the secret of success," At any rate, he has been quite a
successful man from a business standpoint at least, for in addition to his fine
floricultural plant, he is the owner of much other property, including an
elegant home in Liberty Park, richly and tastefully furnished, and a tract of
five hundred acres in the northern part of the county. His place of business is
at the corner of Sprague avenue and Stevens street.  Fraternally, he is
affiliated with Lodge No. 228, B. P. O. E., and with Spokane Tribe, No. 9,
Improved Order of Red Men. He was married in Boston, in 1890, to Mrs. Lizzie
Nicholson, a native of Nova Scotia, and they have one child, Dora.
