impossible to ascertain their names.
We have before us Briggs & Brothers
catalogue of flowers and vegetable seeds, for
1872. The appearance Of the work, with its
highly embellshed cover and tint-edged leaves
would seem TO indicate that the book comes be-
fore us for notice from some extensive litho-
graphic printing establishment or illustrated
monthly printing house. The publishers are
who raise and sell flower and vegetable seeds,
sending them in large or small quantities to all
parts of the country.
The catalogue, We must say, is more than was
promised in the advertisements of the firm. Its
illustrated plates are models of pictorial beauty
Its contents emprace useful hints upon the
growth and raising of flowers and vegetables,
and aie the results of years of practical expert
ence. The purchaser of n catalogue receives an
insight into what he may obtain on certain con-
ditions, in the way of one or two chrome litho-
graphs Of flower bouquets, representing bou-
guets Of choice natural flowers. raised by Briggs
g. Brother. These ehromos are fully equal to
the highest priced chromos sold, and are n fit
ornament for paylor or sitting room. The cata-
loguc also contains two representative engrsv-
ings of the chrOmos. and parties ordering only
one. which. without an order for seeds. requires
an enclosure Of seyenty-fye cents, can select
which they prefer.
There is no person interested in flowers, house
or garden plants, or engaged in the raising Of
vegetables or market cereals, who cannot be
benefited by the possession of this valuable and
beautiful illustrated catalogue. An enclosure
of twenty-five cents, secures it prepaid, aud the
amount in seeds is returned, If an order follows
the purchase of catalogue.
