Vick's Floral Guide for 1891. — No 



lover of a line plant or garden can atford 

 to be without a copy. It is an elegant 

 book of over 100 pages, 8^x103^ inches, 

 containing beautiful colored illustratiojis 

 of Sunrise Amaranthus, Hydranges, and 

 Potatoes. Instructions for planting, cul- 

 tivating, etc. Full list of everything that 

 can be desired in the way of Vegetable 

 and Flower Seeds, Plants, Bulbs, etc. 

 Also, full particulars regarding the cash 

 prizes of $1,000 and $200. The novel-

 It costs nothing, because the 10 cents 

 you send for it can be deducted from the 

 first order forwarded. We advise our 

 friends to secure a copy of James Vick,
