^HB FACT that we have in 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 malce 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 late price list and samples to nearest oflace: 141 Milk St.. Boston; 2914 Uth St.. N. W.. Wash-

callas and other lilies may be had. There 

 is plenty of stevia to supply the demand 

 and daffodils are more plentiful. Potted 

 tulips appear to be more abundant. 

 There has been good funeral work dur- 

 ing the last two weeks and weddings 

 have helped to add to the volume of 

 sales. 



Various Notes. 



Fred P. "NVolfinger reports that the 

 19U) holiday season was the best he 

 ever had. He had to provide a large 

 blanket last week, which required more 

 than 12,000 violets. 



William A. Allen, of Union township, 

 has y)eon selected a member of the 

 grand jury for the January term of 

 the Union county courts. 



The January meeting of the Essex 

 County Florists' Club was held this 

 week in the Krueger Auditorium. The 

 club discussed the question of holding 

 another flower show. 



T'J^nder "Obituary" will be found the 

 death notice of J. W. Bahr, one of 

 EHzabeth's oldest florists.

The Market. 



Business was so heavy at Christmas 

 that it was feared there would be a 

 lull as soon as it was over, but instead 

 there not only was a lively demand for 

 everything at New Year's, but business 

 also has kept up to the high-water mark 

 since. Perhaps tlicre has never been a 

 season when the trade was so generally 

 pleased with the after-holiday business 

 as this year. 



The weather man has done all he 

 could to give us bad conditions. Yet 

 flowers of all kinds are cleaned out 

 every day and nothing good goes to the 

 dump. There has been little new in 

 the supply of stock. Many of the aza- 

 leas that did not get in for Christmas 

 have come in and have been sold. Peas 

 are perhaps coming in more freely and 

 there arc ]ilpnty of home-grown orchids 

 to meet all demands. 



Snowdrops are beginning to open out- 

 doors and the first daffodils are showing 

 buds. We need nothing so much as a 

 cold wave. Buds on the early-blooming 

 shrubbery are showing signs of swell- 

 ing, and in another week we shall have 

 the first blooms, if the weather does not 

 change.
