"VICK'S FLORAL GUIDE."

By Editor

This Guide, which is far more than a mere catalogue of seeds, comes to us this year looking brighter and better if possible than ever before. It contains two colored plates, besides hundreds of other instructive and pleasing illustrations, together with descriptions of nearly all the flowers and vegetables grown, with directions how and when to plant, and how to care for them. Indeed, the Guide might properly be called a cyclopedia of floral and horticultural knowledge; and no one who takes any interest whatever in such matters, whether they wish to buy seeds or not, should be without it. Certainly everyone who can do so should at least cultivate a few flowers, as they lend a charm to home life and cast about it a refining influence which nothing else can. We would unhesitatingly say to each of our readers, If you have not already done so, do not fail to send ten cents to James Vick, seedsman, Rochester, N. Y., for a copy of his Illustrated Floral Guide for 1887. No one who has ordered seeds from Vick was ever dissatisfied; he always does better than he promises, and he promises well.
