Won Highest Honors Wherever Shown. 



The Finest Crimson Forcing Rose of the ■ 

 Century. 



Most nearly approached by Meteor in color, but far surpassing that standard variety in brill- 

 iancy and purity of color, as well as in size and freedom of bloom; never showing any deformed, 

 black or bull heads, either in winter or summer. A remarkable keeper when cut, keeping its 

 brilliancy of color without turning blue or dropping its petals, as is the case with Gen. Jacqueminot, 

 which it somewhat resembles. 



To be sure of getting the Best Crimson Forcing Rose of the century, and A1 stock, send your 

 orders at once to the undersigned, or his agents mentioned below. 



I hereby extend a cordial invitation to all 

 lovers of the Queen of Flowers, to come 

 and see LIBERTY growing.

the cars, but he was dead and stuffed. 

 His action in the window was that of 

 a cheap selling-plater at the post with 

 a heavy dope. Being "a stranger in 

 New York," we thought first we had 

 struck the horse show. And half an 

 hour's chat with Mr. P. O'Mara is 

 worth a hundred such sights as that. 



We found our friends of Utica in 

 good health, except Mr. Baker, who 

 has been very poor for several months, 

 but is now getting better. His son, the 

 alderman, still perseveres with seed- 

 lings, and has a very promising white 

 carnation. It is a first-class white. 

 We want a white, but this one will 

 want another two years' trial. The 

 newest and brightest thing in Utica is 

 the store of Wm. J. Crowe. It's metro- 

 politan in every appointment, and Wm. 

 means to keep it so. Nothing is too 

 good for him. In my opinion he has 

 just the right idea of running a store, 

 and, having a good business training, 

 he has a fine opportunity. He is a 

 worker with head as well as hands. 

 Mr. Peter Crowe's roses, grown in his 

 own peculiar way, are looking well. 

 The warm fall weather and one out of 

 a herd of four Jersey cows going dry, 

 have been the cause of much wasting 

 of tissue on the body of P. C, and he

GREEN-HOUSE CONSTRUCTION. 



This has been a specialty with us for many years and to us is 

 due the credit for many of the great improvements that have been 

 made in the construction of wooden green-houses. To those that 

 buy our 



Clear Cypress Building Material 



we furnish, free of cost, complete detail drawings from which any 

 intelligent workman can put up the material correctly. We have 

 'plenty of time to write letters ABOUT OUR BUSINESS, and we will 

 be glad to hear from those contemplating building.
