^HE FACT that we have ia the past seven years built up the largest Cut Flower Box 

 business in the Country is our best advertisement. We strive to please and the results 

 speak for themselves. 



"WHEN BETTER BOXES ARE MADE WE WILL MAKE THEM" 



is still our slogan. 

 We manufacture and carry in stock for prompt shipment: Oxford Gray, Mist Green, Mist 

 Tan, White Carnation and our popular Favorite grade— the latter a most satisfactory telescope 

 shipping box. Holiday boxes in season. We make special sizes promptly and at reasonable 

 charge, and specialize in attractive and up-to-date printing and embossing. 

 With our increased facilities we aim to make our service the best in our line, and if you are in the market it will pay you to wait 

 for the "Climax" Salesman, or send for laie price list and samples to nearest office: 141 Mxlk St., Boston; 2914 11th bt.. N. W.. Wash-

portion of colors seems to have evened 

 up to some extent and all orders are be- 

 ing taken care of satisfactorily. Sweet 

 peas are in heavier supply and the cut 

 is big enough to take care of the de- 

 mand. Violets arc coming along finely 

 and the quantity of singles has in- 

 creased sufficiently so that they can be 

 sold in large lots. 



Lilies are scarce and even the light 

 <lemand is not being taken care of sat- 

 isfactorily. There are plenty of short 

 rubrums in the market and these are 

 moving nicely. Valley, of course, is ex- 

 tremely scarce, and the supply includes 

 but few first- quality sprays. Spring 

 stock is coming in more heavily each 

 day and is selling well. Daffodils are 

 somewliat slow in arriving and are 

 cleaned up easily. 



Various Notes. 



A. Schiller, who has been confined 

 to the hospital for some time, where he 

 has undergone several operations, was 

 operated on again February 3. He was 

 too weak to take an anaesthetic, but it is 

 reported that he is resting quietly and 

 is suffering no ill effects. It will be some 

 time before he again will be aWe to 

 be about. 



William Leverenz, who underwent a 

 serious operation some time ago, is able 

 to visit the store, but he cannot attend 

 to business as yet. He is improving 

 nicely and it will not be long before he 

 will be in the harness again. 



Among visitors last week were C. B. 

 Knickman, of McHutchison & Co., New 

 York, and J. J. Karins, of Henry A. 

 Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia. 



William R. Schroeder and N. Zwcifel 

 left Milwaukee January 30 to attend 

 the carnation exhibition at Indianapolis.

The Market. 



Graduations and an abundance of fu- 

 neral work had the florists stepping 

 lively last week. The call for flowers 

 has exceeded the usual supply during 

 the winter months. The severe weather 

 has greatly hampered the daily consign- 

 ments, delaying some of them for hours, 

 and in some cases the flowers have been 

 frozen. 



Stock is none too plentiful at this 

 time and prices are higher. There is a

good supply of roses, principally of the 

 better grades. Short-stemmed stock is 

 out of the question; only small consign- 

 ments arrive. Some fine Stanley, Mary- 

 land and Montrose roses are seen and 

 are disposed of easily. The supply of 

 carnations is not large, but the quality 

 is fair. Prices range from $5 to $6 per 

 hundred. Sweet peas are fairly plen- 

 tiful, but only a few whites are seen. 

 Jonquils are becoming more abundant 

 and cheaper, and clear wonderfully well. 

 Paper Whites are good and are used ex- 

 tensively in design work. Freesia is
