THE FLORISTS' MANUAL. 



Permit me to reflect the opinions 

 of our brother florists, as I gathered 

 them during my recent travels, in ref- 

 ence to Mr. Scott's Manual. Right 

 here, however, I must confess being 

 at a loss to do so, without arousing 

 the reader's suspicion of exaggera- 

 tion. 



Briefly stated, the consensus of 

 opinion is that Mr, Scott has reared 

 a monument, the Wke of which no 

 florist in his position had ever at- 

 tempted, a monument that reflects 

 great credit upon his genius, his keen 

 observation, his profound theoretical 

 as well as practical knowledge of 

 floriculture, one, in brief, which will 

 immortalize his name and win him a 

 host of admirers among florists yet 

 unborn. 



Aside from the vast range of sub- 

 jects embraced in this truly great 

 work, a feature of inestimable merit, 

 what is being equally admired and 

 commented upon, is his inimitable 

 style, his clear diction, and his point- 

 ed "no two ways about it" manner of 

 treating things. 



As a work of reference, no book of 

 its kind equals it; as a practical 

 "hand guide" (I can think of no more 

 appropriate term), it is pre-eminently 

 the only one of its kind. 



That the present edition will, or 

 ought to be, exhausted ere long, is the 

 opinion of all those who would not 

 part with Scott's Manual for its 

 "weight in gold."
