THE FLORISTS' MANIAL, 



byWM. SCOTT. 



Is a book of 224 large pages (same size as those of the Florists' Review) and contains about 200 articles on commercial 

 plants and cultural operations, each giving "the meat" only, from the personal experience of a thoroughly practical 

 man who is in daily touch with each departmtnt of the busmess. and wno has that rare quality of being able to tell 

 others "what they want to know. The articles are arranged alphabetically, like those in an encyclopaedia, and m 

 an instant one can turn to the subject upon which light is desired at the moment. The book is illustrated by over 2\M 

 fine half-tone engravings. It is 



A Complete Reference Book for Commercial Florists 



and IS a whole library on practical commercial floriculture in one volume. It is very handsomely and substantially 

 bound in hall leather, with specially designed title in goid. Following we print a few extracts from letters received 

 from buyers of the book: 



After reading: Mr. W'm. Scott's Manual, we 

 wish to say that we consider it without equal 

 as a book of reference for busy florists. 



GEORGE M. KELLOGG. 



Pleasant Hill, Mo. 



Mr. Scott's superb work. "Thf Flori.'^ts* 

 Manual." was indeed worth waiting lor. When 

 compared with the amount of practical infor- 

 mation it contains, the selling price, $5.00, 

 seoms a mere bagatelle. 



Oakland. Md. H. WEBER & SONS. 



It is the best book of the kind ever pub- 

 lished. There is more in it than in any other 

 book I have ever seen. I am delighted with it. 



Chicago. JOHN THORPE. 



No progressive florist, old or young, can 

 afford to be without the Florists" Manual. 

 The old florist needs it. for reference, to aid 

 a defective memory, and the young florist 

 wants it as a guide in this progressive era of 

 the florists' business. J. T. TEMPLE. 



Davenport, la. 



The Florists" Manual is worth five times The 



price. It is just what a busy florist wants. 



Columbus. O. B. BUEHLER & SON. 



Am well pleased with the Manual. It is a 

 practical, everyday helper, concise and to the 

 point. W'. A. KENNEDY. 



Milwaukee, W'is. 



Am very much pleased with the book; it is 

 very handy for reference. 

 Macomb. III. F. E. BONHAM. 



T'niike so many of our hooks, it has the 

 very flavor and essence of actual experience. 

 Ithaca. N. Y. L. H. BAILEY. 



We have gotten much valuable instruction 



from the Florists' Manual and prize it hieh'y. 



Franklin. Tenn. TRUETT BROS. 



Am much pleased with the Maniisl. Tt is 

 just what I have been looking for. Something 

 that we can understand, and enjoy reading. 



Etna, Pa. M. NAUMAN. 



Price $5.00, Carriage Prepaid. 



I greatly appreciate the Florists' Manua^. 

 It is a splendid text-hook. 



.JOHN WELSH YOUNG. 

 Oerniantown, Pa. 



The Florists' Manual is a gem. No florist 

 ran afford to be without it. 

 Madison. N. J. A. J. BAIJR. 



If everyone has enjoyed your hook as I have 

 it's a successful publication. It is differe-t 

 from our usual horticultural works, being 

 plain and concise — just what one wants. 



Flushing. N. Y. H. D. DARLINGTON. 



The copy of the "Florists' Manual" wrs 

 duly rerei\-ed. I am very well pleased with 

 same. The more I read it the better sat!<^- 

 fif^d I am with it. and there are one or tw^ 

 articles alone in it that are each worth all 

 you ask for the bonk, for everything is mat'e 

 so plain and all details are right to the point. 

 I trust you may have a good and ready sale 

 for the same. M. S. W'ORDEN.
