POINTS OF SUPERIORITY IN A 

 DISPLAY ICEBOX. 



rii" methods adopted by ilorists tor 

 the preservation it cm flowers have 



been many and varied. The cool cel- 

 lars where Bowers were usually kept 

 in the early days of the flower trade, 

 in time gave way to the ordinary do- 

 mestic refrigerator, the latter in turn 

 being supplanted by the more preten- 

 tious and larger box with glass doors. 

 Today the flower box of the progres- 

 sive florist is a marvel of beauty, if not 

 in every instance an object of utility. 

 Wen half the attention paid to the 

 matter of refrigeration as is bestowed 

 upon outward embelishment, much 

 might be credited to the florist's in- 

 come, as faulty construction of boxes

causes, in many instances, as much 

 loss of stock as no icebox at all. 



Great care should "be exercised in de- 

 signing a display box. A depth of three 

 feet (approximately) from front to 

 back — inside measurement — is ordina- 

 rily sufficient, while any height from 

 tli. flooring consist' nt with the dimen- 

 sions of the store and the owner's 

 judgment is allowable, reserving space 

 for the ice chamber. Between the bot- 

 tom of the ice chamber and the floor- 

 ing seven feet is sufficient height — in- 

 side measurement — for any display and 

 renders the handling of vases of 

 Cowers to and from the shelves quite 

 easy. Mirrors or white paint should 

 bi used as an inside lining. The tem- 

 perature of a display box should be 

 1 ept it "i' to 55 d^s Sliding doors are 

 rablc to those on hinges, as 

 ttle >r warp. 



Electric lights should be hiddt n from 

 view from without and controlled by 



witches on outside of box. 



Tli a i ure suggested has been 



found most desirable, as it does not 

 chill the flowers, but 'cads to harden 

 and fit them for service when taken 

 from the box.
