A pretty good guess is Herman Harms, playing coy with his friend. While the year in the postmark is not clear, to me it looks like 1912 — at which time, according to Minnie's account many decades later, they weren't "going steady" yet.
I don't think the picture on the front is intended to represent the Hobart mill. It's just a generic picturesque scene, on a generic "Greetings From" card on which the manufacturer stamps the town according to the order — in this case, "Hobart, Ind."
