| HISTORY OF THE CORNWALL CHEESE AND BUTTER BOARD |
The Coulthart Cheese Box Manufacturing Company is one of the largest in Canada, supplying boxes to about forty large factories on the Cornwall, Alexandria and Finch Cheese Boards. A staff of ten hands are constantly employed for six months of the year in supplying the trade. The output of boxes annually is over 60,000.
