We have received from James
Wick, Rochester. h. Y. his Floral
Guide, which in beauty of appearance
and convenience Of arrangement sur
passes anything in this line which We
have ever had the privilege of seeing
before Il is q pamphlet eight BY ten
inches in size, and with the covers,
which are by no means the least i'm
portant part Of il, contains an even
one hundred pages. Although cslied
"fioral guide, I" it is devoted to vege-
tables as well and includes as full list
and description of both flowers, vege-
tables and also small fruits as could be
brought within the compass Of book
of this size. In all that the Vicks have
undertaken their aim seems TO have
been TO attain as near TO absolute per-
lection as possible, and probably no
one ever did so much towards bring
ing the cultivation Of flowers TO the
high standard which it has now at
tanned as did the head OF this firm.
