designed title in gold. 

 Price, $5.00 Carriag'e Prepaid. 



Is a book of 224 large pages (same size as those 

 of the Florists' Review), and contains about 200 ar- 

 ticles on commercial plants and cultural operations, 

 each giving " the meat " only, from the personal ex- 

 perience of a thoroughly practical man who is in 

 daily touch with each department of the business 

 and who has that rare quality of being able to tell 

 others what they want to know. The articles 

 are arranged alpnabeiically. like those in an ency- 

 clop.vdia, and in an instant one can turn to the sub- 

 ject upon which light is desired at the moment. The 

 book is illustrated by over 200 fine half-tone engrav- 

 ings. It is 



A Complete Keference Book for 

 Commercial Florists 



and is a whole library on practical commetcial flori- 

 culture in one volume. It is very handsomely and 

 substantially bound in half leather, with specially

But richest odours the soft air perfume, 



While now mild zephyrs blow and rose trees bloom, 



The garden's Queen in all her glory shows 



As the green trees their purple buds disclose. 



Withdraw your charms then all ye meaner train 

 And yield where Majesty and beauty reign; 

 Compared with her the ruddy morn seems pale 

 And conscious Cynthia's waning beauties fail. 



— Rapin.
