but positively squeeze a mass of useful infor. 
illation into all the spare corners. We strive 
to please all, and, as a consequence, our 
trade has increased most wonderfully. Our 
New Guide in Flowers (61 pages) is now 
ready, it gives full particulars' of all our 
novel and special features in all kinds of 
plants. Every amateur should read it ,
