Tlie Rose is the only flower that can be said to have a his¬ 
tory. It is popular now and was so centuries ago. In his

the esteem in which it was held in former times. A simple

GARDENING FOR PROFIT. 
A Guide to the successful cultivation of tlie Market and 
Family Garden. By Peter Ilemlcrsoji. Finely illus¬ 
trated. Price $1.50. 
There are marvels of transformation, and rapid reproduc¬ 
tion recorded therein, which might well shame tlie dull fancy 
of the author of Aladdin or of Kaloolali. There is no theory 
about it; a man who lias made himself rich by market-gar¬ 
dening plainly tells our young men liow they can get rich as 
easily as he did, and without wandering to California or 
Montana for it either. II. Greeley in tlie N. Y. Tribune. 
This is no stilted, impractical work. It is from the pen of 
a practical and successful gardener. It contains plain, un¬ 
affected talk, and facts sucli ns every man going into gar¬ 
dening as a business will be glad to obtain. We can recom¬ 
mend it to every owner of a garden.—Cincinnati Weekly 
Gazette.
