" Every student of Botany may profit by taking counsel

"This book well merits the attention of all engaged in 

 teaching Botany, and also nf those who are about to study 

 ii."— Z/WirfOTi Jouitial 0/ Horticulture. 



"No better service could be rendered to botanists and 

 gardeners than to have this lecture in the hands of every 

 teacher. Prof. Beal is one of the best of our modern 

 teachers of Botany." — Gardeners' Monthly. 



Looking at results there are few better teachers of Botany 

 than Prof. Beal.— 7Ae Botanical Gazette, 



" It would be difficult to overestimate the difference be- 

 tween the delight which a class of bright young girls or boys 

 would take in such observations as these, and the dreariness 

 of the hours their elders were forced to spend over the 

 analysis of flowers."— iV. Y. Evening Post. 



"The mode Prof. Beal so ably points out not only imparts 

 useful knowledge, but serves a valuable puri^ose in train- 

 ing the mind.' — Country Gentleman.
