The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 13, 1912. 



FLOWER BOXES 



Successful Florists use Sefton Boxes. To have success in shipping 

 flowers, YOU should use them. 



We offer a complete and superior line of cut flower, folding boxes in 

 numerous grades and sizes, as well as Corrugated Fibre Board Boxes 

 for Live Plants and Floral Designs. 



Sefton Florists' Boxes combine high quality with low price. We man- 

 ufacture them in large quantities and thus are able and pleased to 

 give you the benefit in reasonably low prices.

A box of high quality attracts the eye and makes it a pleasure to open 

 a neat, tasty package. Sefton Florists' Boxes are trade builders, inas- 

 much as they are high class and make a good impression. Purchasers 

 of our boxes were once users of the inferior grades.

guilty of a misdemeanor and shall pay a fine of 

 not exceeding |500 and not less than $200, or shall 

 be imprisoned for a term of not more than one 

 year and not less than thirty days, or shall suffer 

 a penalty of both such fine and imprisonment: 

 Provided. That any person or persons who shall 

 knowingly sell for seeding purposes seeds or grain 

 which were imported under the provisions of this 

 Act for the purpose of manufacture shall be 

 deemed guilty of a violation of this Act. 



The bill was reported to the 8enate, 

 with the ob.iectionable amendments, May 

 22. It may be passed any day. While 

 the grass seed interests have repre- 

 sentation at Washington, every seeds- 

 man can help by wiring his senators to 

 vote against the prison penalty. At 

 the same time the congressmen should 

 be written, as the fact that the objec- 

 tionable amendment was added in the 

 Senate will bring the bill, if passed, back 

 to the House for conference.

COURTEEN'S NEW WAREHOUSE. 



Milwaukee is to have one of the larg- 

 est wholesale seed establishments in the 

 United States. Building permits have 

 been asked for and excavation work al- 

 ready has begun for the eight-story con- 

 crete structure to be erected at a cost 

 of $180,000 on Lake street for S. G. 

 Courteen. Modern elevators designed 

 for cleaning seeds will be installed and 

 tank storage for 100,000 bushels will 

 be provided. The building is to be 

 ready for occupancy shortly after Janu- 

 ary 1, 1913. 



COLUMBUS, O. 



The Market. 



Trade here has broken all records in 

 the way of plant sales and everything 

 is about cleaned up in the way of bed- 

 ding plants. Nearly everyone who 

 bought a couple of dollars' worth here- 

 tofore increased his purchases, in many 

 cases buying three and four times as 

 much as formerly. Prizes are offered 

 by the real estate board for the best 

 section of street and in some places 

 people have formed clubs for the deco- 

 rating of certain sections and are doing 

 themselves proud.
