The Climax Cut Hower Boxes 



"A BOX FOR EVERY FLOWER" 



SEVEN GRADES-Oxford Gray, Mist Green,' Nonpareil Green, White 

 Carnation, White Glazed and our popular "Favorite Grade"— the latter a heavy , 

 full telescope shipping box. Holiday boxes in their season. 



We have over 150 sizes in the different colors and shades in stock. If you 

 need a special size we will make it promptly and not charge you an exorbitant 

 price. 



"WHEN BETTER BOXES ARE MADE WE WILL MAKE THEM** 



Florist boxes are a specialty with us. We know what the florist needs and 

 how to make the box to meet his requirements. When it comes to Quality, Ar- 

 tistic Printing, Embossing and Quick Service, we are headquarters and on the job every minute. If you have never used a 

 "Climax Flower Box" you have missed something real good. Before placing your next order write us for samples and prices.

to the usual "take-it-easiness" of the 

 summer season. On the other hand, the 

 growers and greenhouse men are busy 

 in clearing their houses for repairs and 

 alterations, and in outdoor work. Roses 

 and carnations are short and sweet peas 

 practically gone. 



Various Notes. 



Joseph Leach has been drawn by the 

 Pawtucket aldermen for petit jury duty 

 in the Superior court. 



Walter J. Sword, of Valley Falls, is 

 enjoying a two weeks' fishing trip on 

 Cape Cod. 



Timothy L. O'Connor and family 

 have taken quarters at the Mathewson 

 House, Narragansett Pier, for the sea- 

 son, 



Frederick C, Hoffman has added a 

 Cadillac touring car to his garage. He 

 is increasing his facilities and last week 

 purchased an acre of land near his 

 greenhouses. 



Joseph Koppelman was a business 

 visitor in Boston last week, 



H, Howard Pepper, of the Melrose 

 Garden Co,, was an attendant at the 

 fourteenth annual session of the Bap- 

 tist Sunday school summer school at 

 Narragansett Pier last week. 



James B, Canning and family have 

 opened their summer cottage at High- 

 land Beach, on Narragansett Bay, for 

 the season. 



The Hoxsie Nurseries, at Hoxsie, are 

 setting out over 30,000 chrysanthemum 

 plants. 



William E, Chappell is slowly con- 

 valescing from a long illness,

The Market. 



Plenty of rain, plenty of good grow- 

 ing weather, and a fair run of business 

 tells the tale of the last two weeks 

 here. There have been few seasons for 

 years that have had a better and a 

 more evenly distributed supply of rain- 

 fall. I am glad to note that there is 

 a generally buoyant feeling creeping into 

 all lines of business that I have not 

 seen since the war broke out. This has 

 been especially noticeable in the last 

 few weeks. 



Boses are in good supply and of good 

 quality. Gladioli are especially good. 



CKNES

though not in oversupply. They are 

 selling reasonably well. Other things 

 are on the scarce side. 



Last week saw the finishing of the 

 planting of chrysanthemums and car- 

 nations inside. There will be rather 

 less space given to carnations this sea- 

 son than last, and perhaps roses will 

 also be curtailed somewhat. There was 

 clearly a surplus last year, and some 

 of the growers are wisely deciding that 

 this condition only spoils prices and 

 ruins profits.
