PRACTICAL FLORICULTURE, 
A guide to the successful propagation and cultivation of 
Florists’ Plants. By Peter Henderson, author ol “ Gar¬ 
dening for Profit.” Beautifully illustrated. Price $1.50. 
Certainly the most practical and desirable work that has 
ever been published on this subject. We are selling them 
rapidly. Some no doubt will say that it exposes the “ se¬ 
crets ” of the Trade too freely, and that it will make Garden¬ 
ers and Propagators so plenty that our occupation, like 
Othello’s, will he gone.— H. A. Dreek, Seedsman, Phila., Pa. 
Full to overflowing with valuable information. 
Francis Richardson, Toronto, Canada. 
Thoroughly practical, yet readable as a novel.—N. Y. Sun. 
■Just the work for the young Florist or Amateur, as it tells 
him clearly there is no such thing as failure, if its simple 
teachings are followed. 
Galvin & Geraghty, Florists, Newport, R. I. 
GARDENING FOR PROFIT. 
A Guide to the successful cultivation of the Market and 
Family Garden. By Peter Henderson. Finely illus¬ 
trated. Price $1.50. 
There are marvels of transformation, and rapid reproduc¬ 
tion recorded therein, which might well shame the dull fancy 
of the author of Aladdin or of Kaloolali. There is no theory 
about it; a man who has made himself rich by market-gar¬ 
dening plainly tells our young men how they can get rich as 
easily as he did, and without Wandering to California or 
Montana for it either. H. Greeley in the N. Y. Tribune. 
Tliis is no stilted, impractical work. It is from the pen of 
a practical and successful gardener. It contains plain, un¬ 
affected talk, and facts such as every man going into gar¬ 
dening as a business will he glad to obtain. We can recom¬ 
mend it to every owner of a garden.—Cincinnati AYeekly 
Gazette. 
PARSONS ON THE ROSE. 
A Treatise on the Propagation, Culture, and History of 
the Rose. Revised and newly electrotyped. Illustrated. 
By Samuel B. Parsons. Price $1.50. 
The Rose is the only flower that can he said to have a his¬ 
tory. It is popular now and was so centuries ago. In liis 
work upon the Rose, Mr. Parsons has gathered up the curi¬ 
ous legends concerning the flower, and gives us an idea of 
the esteem in which it was held in former times. A simple 
garden classification lias been adopted, and the leading vari¬ 
eties under each class enumerated and briefly described. 
The chapters oil multiplication, cultivation, and training, 
are very full, and the work is altogether the most complete 
of any before the public. 
NEW AMERICAN FARM BOOK. 
Originally by Richard L. Allen. Revised and greatly 
enlarged by Lewis F. Allen. Price $2.50. 
Allen’s American Farm Book has been one of the standard 
farmers’baud hooks for twenty years; it is still a valuable 
bookflmt not up to the times; and as its author, Mr.ILL. Allen, 
could not give time to its revision, this was undertaken by 
liis brother, Hon. Lewis F. Allen, the distinguished farmer 
of Eric county, editor of the American Sliort-horn Herd- 
Book. The work is greatly enlarged, and full of suggestions 
from the rich experience of its editor and reviser, and is 
called the yew American Farm Book. 
HERBERT’S HINTS TO HORSE KEEPERS.

Breed a Horse; How to Buy a llorse; IIow to Break a 
llorsc; IIow to Use a Horse; How to Feed a Horse; How

TIN4JNEI) LEAD PIPE, 
PURE WATER A GREAT BLESSING. 
This article is growing rapidly in pub¬ 
lic favor, and will sooii supersede the 
use of lead pipes for all domestic pur¬ 
poses. It is lined to the extent of one- 
quarter its thickness with Pure Block 
Tin, hut so thoroughly united to the lead 
in the process of manufacture as to he in 
fact hut one pipe. This pipe is as flexi¬ 
ble and as easily worked as lead pipe; 
the water flows through it as pure as if 
drawn through Silver! Bv its use Lead 
Poison is avoided, and general health promoted. 
FROM THE AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST : 
‘•SAFE PIPE FOR DRINKING WATER.—Lead poison¬ 
ing, from water brought in lead pipe,is the often unsuspect¬ 
ed cause of disease and death. Galvanized Iron Pipe, wood 
and cement pipe, are expensive and inconvenient substances, 
so that people will risk their lives and use lead. The Lead- 
encased Block-tin Pipe is even cheaper than lead, and we be¬ 
lieve perfectly safe. Our faith in it has led us recently to 
lay some eighty feet of it, through which all our drinking 
water is drawn.” 
In ordering, give size of bore, and head or pressure of 
water. Circulars sent free.
