PORCH BOXES SELL THEMSELVES 



HAVE ONE FILLED OUTSIDE YOUR STORE AND SEE THEM GO 



Our Boxes are far superior to any on the market, being made of good, durable lumber, ^-inch thick, and having a strong 

 iron band on both ends, which makes them indestructible. Tdey are covered very artistically with Birch Bark, with a 

 Cedar Bark edging. This effect cannot be excelled— and just think of the price— 3Sc DCT runninfl fOOt.

ular. Potted fuchsias are more plenti- 

 ful than they have been heretofore this 

 season. Peonies are plentiful, of good 

 quality and of medium price. Hydran- 

 geas continue plentiful and good. The 

 French varieties are most in demand. 



Various Notes. 



Fred P. Wolfinger made many 

 wreaths for the decoration of graves 

 on Memorial day. 



C. J. Connolly, of 320 Bank street, 

 has several weddings for which he is 

 to furnish flowers. 



The loss to florists by the rulings of 

 some boards of education, or principals 

 of schools, that flowers shall not be 

 presented to members of the graduat- 

 ing classes, or, if presented, shall not 

 be given to the graduates until after 

 the exercises are over, is illustrated by 

 the remarks of a Newark florist, who 

 said that before flowers were forbidden 

 to be publicly presented to graduates, 

 one of the other florists of town al- 

 ways sent to a particular school a 

 whole wagon load of flowers, while he, 

 a smaller florist, had all that a man

could carry. Last year, after the rule 

 had been made that flowers must not 

 be presented until the exercises were 

 over, one small boy was able to carry 

 all of the flowers sent by both of these 

 florists for presentation to members of 

 the graduating class. 



There has been an unusually big de- 

 mand for seed in the land cultivation 

 work of the Lot and Yard Improve- 

 ment Association of Newark. W. J. 

 Coleman is the agriculturist in charge 

 of this work. Judges will be named 

 to award prizes for the best flowers 



and vegetables grown on the vacant 

 lots. The Essex County Florists' Club 

 has donated $25 for prizes for the best 

 flowering plants grown on the lots. 



Henry A. Strobell has had consider- 

 able funeral work lately. He has or- 

 ders for flowers for a number of wed- 

 dings during June. R. B. M. 



Oreen Bay, Wis.— The Meier- 

 Schroeder Co. has moved its stock from 

 the old store on Pine street to the new 

 location, at 119 North Washington 

 street. The place has been completely 

 redecorated.
