AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST. 
155 
with the “Belle ot Dubuque,” a new, large double Dai¬ 
sy, and “Harkett’s Perfection,” a fine, variegated Lan- 
tana, as novelties. 
Hoopes, Brother & Thomas, Westchester, Pa.—An¬ 
other nursery establishment largely concerned in the 
florists’ business. Their catalogue is very full, and we 
can testify from inspection to the general excellence of 
their stock. 
W. F. Massey & Co., Waverly, (near Baltimore), Md., 
to which place they have removed from Chestertown, 
Md. Their very full catalogue is prefaced by a remarka¬ 
bly fine chromo of their new salmon-colored geranium, 
“President Perot.”

greenhouse and bedding plants.

phia, Pa., issue a supplementary catalogue in which they 
offer various novelties, including roses, which are a 
specialty with them.

trated catalogue, with a colored plate of brilliant flowers. 
C. A. Nordyke, Richmond, Ind., besides greenhouse 
and bedding plants, has a large variety of vegetable plants. 
Thomas Pray, Jr., Central Falls, R. I.—A very full 
collection of plants, also flower seeds. Mr. P. has adopt¬ 
ed the rather risky plan of publishing the names and ad¬ 
dresses of those who do not pay their bills. 
John Saul, Washington, D. ©.—It is sufficient to say 
that this catalogue is as full as ever, with a bewildering 
list of novelties. A fine colored plate of the “ Beauty of 
Glazemvood,” a new yellow Tea rose, marvellously 
striped with carmine, is given. 
A. Whitecomb, Lawrence, Kansas.—A beautifully neat 
catalogue of a well considered selection. 
A. K. Williams, Richmond, Ind., calls his catalogue 
the. “ Rose-grower’s Companion,” it is very full in roses, 
but offers other plants. 
Wm. C. Wilson, Astoria, (L. I.), and 45 West 14th St., 
N. Y.—Mr. Wilson does not make much noise about it, 
but he has one of the largest establishments in the coun¬ 
try, and it is difficult to mention any good thing that he 
does not have in his full list. 
I. C. Woods & Bro., Fishlcill, N. Y., have a whole¬ 
sale list of general greenhouse plants. 
Woolson & Company, Passaic, N. J., make a specialty 
of herbaceous and other hardy plants, and with their de¬ 
scriptive catalogue, give useful reading matter relating to 
hardy plants.

thoroughbred and native stock, consisting of horses, 
cattle and sheep. The descriptive pamphlet of the “ Vic¬
