 it through the author's own words. 1. e.: "If 

 those who favor us with a perusal of Its 

 pages glean only one hint which may help 



for their money." A work resulting from Mr. 

 Scott's long and varied experience, "from 



to planting a tree or seeding a lawn or build- 

 ing a greenhouse." cannot but throw out 

 many hints of value to any one interested In 

 any line of horticulture or flower gardening. 

 The comparatively small index confronting 

 the reviewer at first is far from encouraging, 

 but as the purpose of the author is more 

 clearly brought to light, it is better appreci- 

 ated. It shows the Intention to treat of the 

 most desirable and profitable things to handle 

 —a condensation which many will enjoy. Many 

 interesting subjects are brought to headings, 

 such as "Easter Plants," "Watering." "Dec- 

 orations," "Potting." "Bedding Plants." etc.
