Mr. Scott's superb work, "Tlie Flor- 

 ists' Manual." was indeed worth wait- 

 ing for. When compared with tlit/ 

 amount of practical information it 

 contains, the selling price. f.'t.DO, 

 seems a mere bagatelle. 



H. Weber &. Sons. 



Oakland, Md. 



The copy of the '■Florists' Manual" 

 was duly received. I am very well 

 pleaBed with same. The more I read 

 it tlie bettiT satisfied I am with it. and 

 tliere are one or two articles alone in 

 it, that are eacli worth all you ask for 

 the book, for everything is made so 

 plain and all details are right to the 

 point. I trust you may have a good 

 and ready sale for the same.

North Adams, Mass. 



The only fault to be found with it is 

 when you get reading it the midniglit 

 (lil is liable to run low and you have 

 to go on to gas or reluctantly break 

 off. either going to bed or first taking 

 a look over the houses to see if the 

 temperature tallies witlv the Manual.

I greatly appreciate the ■■ Florists" 

 Manual." It is a splendid text-book. 

 John Welsh Young.

The '•Florists' Manual" is worth 

 live times the price. It is just what a 

 busy florist wants.

Columbus, O. 



Unlike so many of our books, it lias 

 tlie very flavor and essence of actual 

 e.>:perienee. 



L. H. Bailey.

If everyone has enjoyed your book 

 as I have it's a successful publication. 

 It is different from our usual horti- 

 cultural works, being plain and con- 

 cise—just what one wants.

Prom advance sheets of the Flor- 

 ists' Manual, kindly sent us by the- 

 publlshers. as well as those which 

 have appeared in the trade press we. 

 have formed an Idea of the g-eneral 

 scope and usefulness of Mr. Scott's 

 book, and we now hail with a great 

 deal of satisfaction the work as a 

 completed whole. Several handbooks 

 of ;i more or less similar nature, deal- 

 ing with commercial plant culture in 

 America, or some portions of it rather, 

 have been placed on the market: but 

 the teachings which they convey 

 have, as the years rolled by. become, 

 to a greater or less extent obsolete, 

 owing to the continued mutlbilitv in, 

 methods, etc.. so that the Manual 

 containing as It does, matter which is 

 strictly up-to-date, and thoroughly 

 practical, should meet with a ready 

 acceptance anion? all engaged In the 

 Industry upon which it treats. The 

 caliber of Mr. Scott's instructions, in, 

 nuitters horticultural, is too well 

 known to the trade to require any 

 elaboration at our liauds: suffice it to 

 say that the same soundness of doe- 

 trine, and masterful handling of every 

 subject dealt with, generally charact- 

 erizes the text of the book now before- 

 us. Nearly 200 individual Items are- 

 dlscussed. and. as regards plants, 

 largely those of commercial value, 

 the staples of the trade receiving 

 gi-eatest attention.
