Mr. H., of Palatka, has been one of our most success- 

 ful culturists, and skilled as he is, he says " he has 

 learned many things of value from the book." 



" The author gives every step from the planting of the 

 seed through all the stages of growth and manipulation, 

 till the tree is at full bearing age. I feel certain that 

 this little book is destined to work a vast change in the 

 manner of treating the orange tree, and the new-comer 

 will find in it directions, plainly given, which will en- 

 able him to go at once to work in the right way to make 

 an orange grove. ' ' The East Florida Banner. 



Mr. A. I. Bidwell, of the Arlington Nursery, and one 

 of the most successful and reliable in Florida, says : 

 " I heartily recommend it to all my correspondents ask- 

 ing information on orange growing.'* 



Mr. Pillow, a successful orange grower near Manda- 

 rin, and horticulturist from Rochester, N. Y., says : 

 " If I could have had such a book when beginning to 

 grow oranges, it would have saved me over a hundred 

 dollars." 



Mr. Greenleaf, jeweller, of Jacksonville, and who is im- 

 proving one of the largest wild groves in the State, says : 

 " The book, if I could have had it one year ago, would 

 have saved me a thousand dollars." 



Mr. Bishop, who is president of the Fruit-Growers' 

 Association of Florida, and owner of three of the finest 

 groves in the State, says : " It contains all the informa- 

 tion necessary for success." 



" I have been planting arid cultivating orange trees for 

 forty years, but have learned more from your book than 

 I had done from all my experience." Geo. Acosta y of 

 Mandarin^ Fla.
