With snow falling steadily, and winter
still triumphant, there is a certain mock
cry in the sudden appearance of one and
another seed catalogues. ''Vick's Floral
Guide" leads the van, and as usual needs
no commentator, its solid merit having
long ago given it a firm place in popular
affection. The number contains the
usual list of new seedlings in both veget-
ables and flowers, and with Its bright
flower frontispiece, is quite worthy a
prominent place on the sitting room ia
BILE, while the illustrated magazine has
long been faithful guide in all matters
relating to the garden. James Wick,
Rochester, N. Y, will send the Floral
Guide to any address for 10 cents, which,
if seeds are afterwards purchased, may
be deducted from the order.
