A GOOD FLOWER MAGAZINE 



IT PAYS 



TO TAKE 



Those who have tried it, say so. A delightful monthly visitor, that comes to tell you just the most 

 interesting and most useful things there are to know about flowers. It tells you how to make them grow 

 and bloom, and will, in fact, help you to get more enjoyment out of every plant you have. And then, 

 if each copy is kept, you will soon have a regular encyclopedia, always ready for reference any time you 

 wish information about flowers. 



We earnestly desire that the plants we send may continue to grow and give our patrons entire satis- 

 faction, and to those who have heretofore had only partial success with their plants we know this magazine 

 will prove a wonderful help. We want to help our friends succeed and therefore, have decided to make 

 the following :

"HOW TO QROW FLOWERS" 



is the title of this magazine, and for the benefit of the few not already familiar with its delightful pages, 

 we would say that it is a complete and practical Flower Magazine issued monthly, containing 36 large 

 pages, printed on fine book paper, and illustrated with half-tone engravings from photographs. We think 

 it is the Best Floral Magazine published. It is up-to-date in every respect, edited with a view to directly 

 helping all amateur flower growers, and answering in season the one thousand and one questions that 

 are sure to present themselves to anyone interested in flowers. Such prominent contributors as Eben B. 

 Rexford and others tell just how they have succeeded in getting the greatest amount of growth and bloom 

 and fragrance from their plants. 



In addition to this it gives suggestions about setting out flower beds and helpful hints that show how 

 to make the home beautiful and attractive. There will be articles treating of " Flowers in the South," 

 " Flowers in Foreign Countries," another series treating of the " Elementary Principles of Botany" and 

 a department devoted to answering the questions that are asked the editor. In fact, practically every- 

 thing that you can wish to know about growing flowers in the home will be found in ** How to Qrow 

 Flowers " in proper season. (Sample copy will be sent on request.) 



Do you wonder how the modest price we ask can pay for such a bounteous feast of good things ? 



We know it is something you will appreciate— that is why we make these Three Excellent Offers. 



Please Always Order by Number, and if you want the above splendid collection of Plants, Seeds 

 and Bulbs, and Magazine for one year, state that you enclose 50 cts. for Magazine Offer, No. 1.
