Mr. Seotls sulJerb work. ■Tlie Flor- 

 ists' Manual.' was indeed worth wait- 

 ing for. When compared with the 

 amount of practical inforinatiuu n 

 contains, the selling i)riCH. J., .oil. 

 seems a mere basratelle.

Oakland. Md. 



The copy of tlie ' Florists' Maiuial " 

 was duly iweived. I aiu vcr.v well 

 pleased with same. The more I i-eart 

 it the better satisfied I atn with it. aiid 

 there are one or two articles alone in 

 it that are each worth all you ask for 

 tlie book, for everythin;; is made so 

 plain and all details are right to the 

 point. I trust you may have a sood 

 and ready sale for the same.

North Adams. Mass. 



The only fault to be found witli it is 

 when vou get reading it the midnight 

 oil Is liable to run low and you liave 

 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 

 leinperatnre tallies with tlie Manual.

I greatly appreciate the " Florists' 

 Manual. " It is a splendid text-book.

The "Florists' Manual" is worth 

 five times the price. It is just what a 

 busy florist wants.

Unlike so many of our books, it has 

 the very flavor and essence of actual 

 exiierience.

If everyone has enjoyeii your book 

 aslhave'ifsa successful publication. 

 It is different from our usual horti- 

 cultural works, being plain and con-

We are in receipt of "The 

 Florists' Manual." by Mr. Scott

Fi-om advance sheets of the Flor- 

 ists' Manual, kindly sent us by the 

 publishers, as well as tliose which 

 have appeared in the trade press, we 

 have formetl an idea of the general 

 SL-ope and usefulness of Mr. Scott's 

 book, and we now hail with a gi-eat 

 deal of satisfaction the work as a 

 completed whole. Several handbooks 

 of a more or less similar nature, deal- 

 ing with counnereial plant culture in 

 America, or some portions of it rather, 

 ave beeu plaeed ou the market; but 

 ihe teachings which the.v convey 

 have, as the years roiled by. become 

 to a greater or less extent obsolete, 

 owing to the continued mutibility 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 among all engaged in the 

 industrv upon which it treats. The 

 caliber of Mr. Scott's Instructions, in 

 matters horticultural, is too well 

 known to the trade to retiuire any 

 elaboration at our hands: suffice it tu 

 say tliat the same soundness of doe- 

 triup. and masterful liandling of every 

 subject dealt with, generally charact- 

 erizes the text of the book now before 

 VIS. Nearly tiOU individual items are 

 discussed." and. as regards plants, 

 largely those of commercial value, 

 the staples of the trade receiving 

 greatest attention.

It is a work of art and should 

 be in Ihe hands of all live 

 florists. Its iiseful and in- 

 .structive contents cannot fail 

 to be a benefit to all in the 

 trade.

 to the point.
