PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED. 



"The Culture of Water Lilies and 

 Aquatic Plants" is a beautifully illus- 

 trated pamphlet of 48 pages issued by 

 Peter Henderson & Co., New York. 

 It is a thoroughly practical and com- 

 prehensive treatise on the interesting 

 topic of water gardening, yet is much 

 more than an ordinary catalogue. The 

 various topics of situation, pond con- 

 struction, gardening in tanks, soil, 

 planting, raising from seed, hardy and 

 tender, day and night bloomers, bog 

 and marsh treatment, fish, insects, etc., 

 are all well covered, and no lover of 

 aquatic plants should fail to send for 

 a copy.
